Very nice -- I enjoyed listening to this.  Around 1:06 there's a synth chord or two that comes in that to my ears doesn't belong -- the sound is too "synthy" for the rest of the track.  
Good work

Excellent playing and nice number Kenny.  I too like that Celtic feel to this number. 
There are a lot of instrumentation/sounds going on in this number but you have got good separation on all of it and it all works.

Great arrangement, Kenny!
Everything fits well, right where it should (considering with this many parts it could get busy).  And well performed, of course.




Hello Slugbaby ,
Thank you for the song listen and the kind words you said ..I appreciate it

Nice tune Kenny.  As usual, excellent guitar work.  Interesting how you have triggered your midi with your guitar, I will have to look into that.




Hello michaelhanson ,
 
Thank You ,  I appreciate what you said about my guitar playing and song
 
The Jam Origin Midi Guitar is what I'm using as my Midi Guitar interface ....
This plug is absolutely incredible   Lets me use any guitar I want to play and it tracks fantastic .
 
Jam Origin just updated the software to a beta version that literally blows the doors off the version of Midi Guitar that i used to record the synth parts in my song ...
 
I'm very optimistic that I will be finally taking some of my music to the next level w Midi Guitar ...
 
Give the demo as shot if you get the chance ,
 
all the best  ,
 
Kenny

Nice work.
good playing and a nice mood in this piece.
Only comment I will give is that it's a too much noise on the acoustic guitartrack. Maybe it's recorded with too low signal?

nice to hear stuff outside of 4/4 all the time.  Nice tones and the ac gtr sounds great for sure.




Thank You mixmkr

Hello Alan ,
Thank you for the listen and commenting
At 1:06 , could that be the placeholder synth string part you heard that you didn't care for ?

Thank You for the song listen and kind words Freddy J
There seems to be good potential here ...Yes I did the best I could with my playing ...still need to dial this song in ..

Thank You Roger
Yeah there's noises here ...the acoustic was done in a very lively room in my old apt using an AKG condenser Mic
that in itself contributes , also in a couple of places in the song ( current mix up ) a couple of synth patches also have noises ...I used hardware and I'm seriously considering doing a few things to rectify a few of these problems ....
The good news is ...the feel of the composition has a good mood and vibe ..
If at first , if I don't succeed I may have to keep at it until I do succeed ....
thank you for your honesty.
 
all the best ,
Kenny

I just put up a new mix of my tune.
 
Someday I Will Love Again 
https://soundcloud.com/gu...eday-i-will-love-again
 
A few things I changed in this mix ...I added some new parts w a few acoustic instruments I played
Tightened up the Bass , added a few  Guitalele parts w a mic , added some melody support VIA a Parlor guitar w a mic , pulled out some of the hiss on the main acoustic ....also dialed in a bunch of stuff too much to list ....
 
there may be more to be done ....I still want to clean up some stray noises from a couple of hardware issues I had ..
 
anyway I hope you dig the improvements I did ,

Hi Kenny!
 
Since this is a new mix, I thought I'd give you my thoughts on that:
 
  • The noise on the acoustic is a bit of a problem, IMO. Such a pretty part really should be more pristine.
  • The bass sounds a little midrangey (is that even a word?) to my ears.
  • Other instrumentation sounds great and you've used the soundstage very well.
 
Just my thoughts...
 
Regards,
Dan

Hello Dan ,
 
Thank you for taking the time to be honest with me ...
 
I may have to scrap the acoustic track and rerecord it in an environment where I can capture it correctly ....
 
The Bass tone is what I would call a Woody Tone and I was actually going for that ...
For me to fix that is not a big deal .On the new mix I had the tone you didn't care for up loud and a Bass tone of the same exact track duplicated mixed w a much lower frequency response underneath it ...
To fix that all I would have to do is lower the Woody Tone Bass and bring up the other Bass part ....  
 
Yes the other instruments are a nice touch ...they are playing parts I have played on my solo acoustic ..
 
I almost wonder if I should just go to a different place entirely with the acoustic guitar and give it a more supportive role in places ....
 
all the best ,
 
Kenny

Kenny, this is the first song I have heard by you.  I love all the different instruments.  I especially like the chord progressions on the acoustic.  Any chance you could share that?
 
It kind of has a courtly feel.  I imagine a passel of young nubiles dancing before the Prince.
 
The use of the guitar synth is nice too.  It shows what can be done with that plug.
 
Nice Kenny

Jesse thank you for the listen
Let me get back to you on the chord progression ...I'm a little crisp around the edges since I spent the last untold number of hours fixing the noise problems on the original guitar part ....
It may be  pretty easy for you to hear what I'm doing now on the guitar.....it is all diatonic in the key of G major ....
Anyway I Just posted a new mix where the guitar is real upfront .
 
 
I did my best to implement the suggestions I have been given along the way with this song from those who were inclined to give feedback........my tune may still need a lot more work so keep them suggestions coming
 
tune is on the same link '''
