Nice piece of work James sounds well here, unless my furry ears are still lying to me, Bass is nicely understated but present (if that makes sense). Good job from both of you.

This is a good instrumental, topped off by good performances. Overall, it sounds a little thin to my ears, but all the parts are there and easily heard. Don't trim all the fat, it's OK to have some midrange.

Sounds good on lappy speakers. Glad to see the project is still alive and well - I sent you a message about it via your site during your forum absence and never heard anything back, so I thought it might have been shelved.

Thanks Lynn. Interesting about the mid-range, haven't done much eq work yet, apart from HPF's on all the guitars & synths. Maybe I overdid that, will take a look.

Hi Paul, thanks a lot. I never got that message, I'm sorry about that. Bandzoogle did some major updating recently, maybe it got lost. Back into the project now that the evening are dark and long

Nice job all around. Nice guitars and bass. Bass is pretty hot but Ed played really nice. Leads are very well done. I like the ambience. The ending sounds like you are starting a new section. I would chop that.

Thanks John. I would have been around 7 or 8 I think. Yes, it's very inspiring to try and come up with musical ideas to portray the written word.

Thanks Jimmy. I should have mentioned that this track will segue into another ('The Headless Cross'), so the fade-out may sound a little strange. I haven't finished the other track yet

Excellent stuff. I love your music James.
Something about the bass tone doesn't sound quite right to me though. It's not that it's too loud or soft, but there are some freqs missing maybe? Also, the snare drum sounds like you're using brushes on a cardboard box... not sure that's what you were going for though. ;)
Still very listenable and enjoyable! Send more. :)

Thanks Walt! it's been a while since I mixed anything, so I'll use that as an excuse for the bass and snare More coming, stay tuned...

Hi, James, It's really great to hear some new stuff from you, and this is really a fantastic and very sophisticated sounding piece of music! I love the feeling of solitude that the crystal clear piano intro conveys, and how it melts into this gorgeous instrumental with your trademark guitar tones and tasty solos. This has lots of clever twists and turns and I really love the well crafted guitar melodies that weave their way in and out of the flowing rhythm. The mix sounds clean and wide, and Bapsi did a bang up job on the bass, too! I'm happy to hear that your new project is going well, James, and I can't wait to hear the next addition! Best Wishes!Bob

Hey James!!! Remember me? I was a missing person. Lol
I haven't been around in a coupla years so I have a lot of catching up to do on what people have been doing with their music. But I like this a lot!!! I also like this style of music. As always your mix and all of the playing is very professional. I love the written guitar lines and I like the bass,. My only thing is the High Hat. It sometimes feels a little out of time and it can be distracting occasionally. I mean I like it, but sometimes it takes over the song.
Other than that. I love it and it's good to see you again James!!!

I like the trance sounding start, great guitar, piano and sound effects go well together. I'm a guitar player wanna be and can't sing (among other things) so I tend to focus on the guitar, its tone, style and how it is used in the song. I think the guitar shines in this piece.
Now the following is minor and coming from someone new at this game, and having my own issues with the final mix results so don't give this comment much weight. My immediate impression was the bass was a little booming and possibly could be of a softer tone, though played very well, and drums just a tad too tart, but may just need a little less vol. Drums are my weak point so I may be off on this, I can't even tap my foot without stepping on the other foot, thank goodness for these machines. Very creative piece and and as I listen to it again, I really like the guitar, reminds me of my style, except my fingers don't move as fast. Very well done. PS what guitar and effects are you using? capt

No worries, I just wanted to know if it was still going as I was looking forward to hearing it in its entirety and you hadn't been around these parts for a while to ask.

Bob, it always makes my day to have you comment on a new tune, you say the nicest things. Thanks very much my friend, I have a couple of new pieces underway, should have one finished in the next week or so.
