This was the first tune we did together - I think this was the second tune I ever wrote. Mike Vlahakis - my partner in Geronimo Cowboys sang - played bass guitar - did the tambourine - and all of the sound effects and did the mix on this one. I wrote this and played guitar and programmed the drums. This tune is about one of my favorite vacation spots in the world. My wife and I have spent a lot of time in CABO. I hope you enjoy. And BTW - we have our first new GC tune in the can - it should be out in a couple of weeks. Thanks for taking a listen.

Interesting, I like it. The vox has a quality (without the low fi effect ) They feel a little muffled? I'm not sure if it's a HPF issue? Or if they need some bumps in a few spots and a nice shelving high? I get the same thing on what I think is the kick? But you can get away with it a little more there. 

My DAW is hit or miss when I try to listen in the good cans, so this is on the buds (bear that in mind pls.) 

I couldn't put my finger on it, but I think this gives me "a Zappa vibe :-)" The bass guitar needs moe deff too, but again, "I'm on buds." No not those? The kind you stick in your ear.

Thanks dude. This was recorded and mixed over ten years ago - we've all gotten better at mixing since then. Thanks again for taking a listen.

So... cool tune, the mix, done 10 years ago has some issues.... so, if you have the tracks, remix it with what you have learned in the past 10 years. 

I do that every so often when I have nothing better to do. Just to see if I can improve a mix. 

Slightly saner than a Zappa tune.

I don't have the tracks - Mike does - but we're both too busy to go back

This is one of the more interesting works I've heard recently.  The Zappa vibe describes this fairly well.  It's almost atonal, but not quite, which gives it a somewhat sophisticated sound to one that has been steepen in Zappa.  I like this tune, and I applaud your creativity and skill.

  I really enjoyed the tune and for being an older production, thought that was really impressive as well.

The tones are awesome.  Good mix.  We are talking about Cabo right? :P

Hey Mark
Love it!  What I like its very original and the mix sounds great on my end for being 10 years old.
