    Frank,
    Nice production as per your norm.
    I have never tried to track horns before, but the sax in this sounds great.
    I would imagine horns are tuff to tame.

    Yep. Bass not so loud in my some-what computer speakers (louder in the headphones though.)
    Still I may make the bass track a little louder, but in the headphones the thing I notices was a sharp snare-drum part that seemed to be too edgy for me though.

    Otherwise, you are starting to make me jealous with all those good songs, you keep putting up here.
    (I will listen again though~~~~~~)

    Well it was here today.  And, it sounded excellent of course. I guess it'll be gone tomorrow too.

    Well, as a bass player, I must say? I really enjoy the bass track... 

    Exceptionally good. It may be "just a tad bit too loud?" And when I say that? It's more of a pref thing than a mix comment? I mean I enjoyed the mix... And I REALLY enjoyed the bass (as a bass player) And btw, I don't claim to be as good as the bass player on this track? I'm just saying, I play the instrument. 
     
    Is that you playing? The bass is really really good...

    Man, you're a great bass player, really. I play the bass? I do... I'm not the best? But I play a f'ing bass... And as a result, I "hear" bass players... 

    I hear them? And I believe (personally?) That the bass? Controls the music? (IMO) which is why I listen to the bass? It controls the song... And you do a really good job of holding down the ass... We all like ass? I'm sorry... But we  Frank? "owns the ass..." He owns it...

    I'm a bass player? So I feel it... I understand it.... And I appreciate it...

    Quality as usual frank. The first minute or so this has a real micheal jackson thriller era vibe goin on. such a smooth groove too, are those drums real,they sound real?

    I agree,a vocal would bring it further.

    reverbnation the old link was not as loud and sounded perhaps a bit different (less bass) while what I think is a new link to soundclick was louder in volume and seemed to have more bass:

    The song sounded fine at soundclick (which to me seems to be a new link at a different place with the same song.)
    And perhaps I will listen again just to make sure.
    Perhaps:
    I am simply perhaps losing my mind.

    Great mix as always Frank.  As usual I love the sax players skills & tone.  Did you record his track?  If so, how bout sharing the details.  It sounds awesome.
     
    Bass is very tastefully played.  Nice!  Bass has  the letter "B" in it
     
    Beautiful job!

    What an outstanding piece of creative genius. This is the music I try to write every time I sit down and compose. Looks like I better give up composing and learn origami!

    Top Shelf Mr. Frank...
    I think it sounds a lot better on SC . Huge difference...
    Reverbnation alway pops and crackles for me.

    Beautifully clean arrangement and production.

    look forward to the vocal?

    Oh, I see (well sometimes I guess), the volume control at reverbnation is down a little than like soundclick where it seems to be up all the way. Still the bass came out better though at soundclick than at reverbnation.
