Lynn, you are such a talented guy - this is one of the favorites I've heard from you - the mix brought me right into the room where you were playing. Love your playing and the mix is so crystal clear and the separation is amazing.

This a great moody track, love the vocals!

Mark, I'm glad we have the opportunity to exchange ideas with each other.  I was always a fan of your mixes, and I finally improved my mixing atmosphere with better speakers and good software.  I think it's finally starting to pay off.
 
Tony, I really appreciate your words, especially since I admire your vocals so much.  Your new song is terrific.

Hi Lynn,
 
I'm on my second listen of Defying Gravity.
 
This is one cool original song. I love it
 
Love your "gritty" vocal and the different effects you have going on through the song. Mix and overall production is spot on, not that I'm qualified to comment on that haha! Composition is great and makes me want to listen to it again (on my third listen while I'm thinking what to say...)
 
cheers

Andy, thanks for taking the time to listen to this more than once.  That alone makes me feel that I'm on to something.  But, don't think for one minute that you're not qualified to comment on a production because your own productions are very good.

Um.  Wow!  This is the first Lynn song I've listened to.  I absolutely loved and thought the drums were perfect.  I loved everything about this song.  I love that it has a very minor feel, and I love that it seems it seems to be in the major scale at points.  Reminds me of earlier Peter Gabriel / Genesis with guitar. 

After it ended, your site switched to "The Devil's In My House."  I think I need to listen to more of your music.  I love this stuff!

I enjoyed this track very much! Cool chord patterns!

Excellent song, Lynn.  As usual no one's mentioning the lyrics, but I noticed, and could definitely relate to the subject matter .  Drums did not trouble me.  I really enjoyed the song and in particular loved what you did with the strings.

Scottie, thanks for taking the time to listen and comment!
 
Phil, I really appreciate your kind words.  I'm still looking for ways to escape gravity without killing myself.

Hey there!  
 
Yeah, the effects of aging. Always fun. 
 
Great mix and creative in so many ways! Love whatever effects you're doing on your voice. I would only suggest a hair more pitch correction on some of your longer notes. 
 
Am I thinking some Pink Floyd is in your soul? 
 
The snare is the only thing I think isn't cutting. It's there, but when I do the old 'TURN EVERYTHING DOWN TO ITS LOWEST AUDIBLE STATE' I should be hearing both your voice and the snare ONLY. So that's how I know the snare could come up a bit. That's how I check my snare levels against the voice. A friend of mine who died of cancer at 49 taught me that one. Never forgotten that advice.
 
Hi hat. Down a tad. Maybe ad a humanize filter to the midi. Randomize CAL will do it in SONAR.   
 
Good introspective piece. Dig your voice. Keep up the creative work.
