loving this Kenny - I like the mix of classical and some of the more bluesy guitar that you use.

Hi Daryl  , thank you

Certainly different from you Kenny. Enjoyed that nylon guitar there too. There was one tiny part just at the end where the choir/pad was inconsistent with the rest, it stopped completely and then restarted and it felt a little weird, but it was small and at the end. 

 
Hi Robby , 
I know exactly where you are talking about w the choir…..I feel the same way as you do 
I'm trying to get back in the saddle over here ….I've been MIA for so long …I decided to let it slide for now ...
I really enjoyed playing my Bass on this and all the various guitars ….I took out just about everything I didn't play 
chances are that , it's gonna be back to the drawing board w this tune ….
thanks for the listen

I hear you. I traveled on business last week and came home feeling a little off, Monday went to the doc and was positive for the flu AND pneumonia... Then I thought I could do some mixing and went in the studio (dead sound card.) Got a new sound card, and the PC tested positive for some nasties which I could not fix :-( I should be getting it back tomorrow and hopefully next week can get back in the saddle again. It's hard for us to do what we do because it takes time, and sometimes "Ship Happens" as Lance Etto said. The fretless needs to go in the shop too :-) We still manage to make a joyful noise! Keep it up.

Well done piece.  Sounds like an intro to an album or to a long, journey of a song.  Love how it builds and then stops for that quiet clean guitar part than back to the original choir sound...but damn I wanted another minute of it, maybe some more electric guitars, wailing and peaking...ha ha.  Pleasant, quality chord structure..it kept my interest and made me want to hear more. 
 
Nicely done.

Really good job Kenny.  The parts and ideas are very imaginative.  Love what you did.  Mix could be better as mentioned above.  You have opened up a whole new genre for yourself.  I encourage you to keep up the creativity.

yes, this is really nice.  A good mash up - it starts orch and then comes in the guitar, but it works.
 
Yes, the mix could be better, but since you ain't finished w/ it that shouldn't be had.  Drums up should help w/ the flow.  But very sophisticated and well done piece.

Hi Guys , 
 
I pulled my first song version off sound cloud and replaced it with a new song file / mix ….
 
 
I felt the first mix was way too loud for the genre and very unbalanced ,
some of the instruments needed to come up , others needed to come down …
you know all the typical stuff …. 
 
I made a lot of small changes along the way and took a few suggestions from the feedback I have gotten here 
(addmitedly,   there is still much I still need to do to get this tune in the best shape possible …)
 
writing and playing music along these type of lines is pretty much me flying by the seat of my fretboard 
 
 
a few folks have mentioned here that it could be a longer song ….or they wanted to hear more 
I added a second section to the song ..
in truth this was the first section I had when I started working on this music…
I've been working on that section a bit in my free time building up some of the guitar and bass parts 
some are keepers some are placeholders 
 
once I redo the last few phrases in the choir of Heaven  (that last chord sux pretty bad )
I can decide which section comes first ….
 
 
……...Heaven Welcomes You Home….

I hope you enjoy
