Once upon a time, a musician got a phone call. *rrrrring*
"Umm, Dad... not sure how to say this, but here's the good news. I've got all the lug nuts! By the way, can you please come and help me retrieve my wheel and bumper from the road I was driving on? Love you!"
True story.
 
This is a collaboration with my friend Paul Frick, during our Wednesday night music sessions.  The style is a bit heavier than much of my recent work.  Please let me know what you think!  As always, criticism and honesty are welcome.

Hi Walt, fun tune, I like the slowdown at the end ; )   Maybe a lead over the top would be nice.

Oh yeah, love this from the get-go! That's a great intro, really draws you in. The breakdown with the choir pad and the muted drums works really well, that was inspired. Great stuff Walt.

Lots of stuff going on there Walt... Like the filter effects, and that slow down. And a mad story to boot LOL.
 
cheers

@Rikkie: Thanks Rik!  Perhaps you're right about a lead.  I will discuss it with Paul.  Yeah, the ending is a bit of a detour, for sure. :)
 
@jamesg1213: Thank you James.  Just a few parlor tricks on the breakdown, but it seemed fun. :)
 
@synkrotron: Thanks Andy.  Yep, we're trying to be more varied in our productions.  Some new elements on the palette this time out. ;)
 
@Wookiee: And we thank you for listening John.  Something a bit different this time around.
 
@ohgrant: Glad you enjoyed it Grant.  About the story... it happened to my friend/collaborator Paul, a few months ago.  All turned out well, thankfully.
 
@munmun: Thank you Sunny.  Glad you enjoyed!

Agree with Rikkie that an overall lead is needed to turn this into something really special. Great choice of instruments, and I love the bling sprinkled throughout. That bass is perfect for this. Great job Walt!
 
Regards,
Dan
