Well done!

Really cool James. Lots of interesting things going on in this piece. Love the ooooos.
Cian really did a great job. I think he is quite the talent also.

What smooth mix, crystal clear, which I always like.  Nice drifty smooth jazz feel, the vocals are very nice.  Lots of breaks and accents and trippy little sounds.  I like this a bunch guys.  Good song and the arrangement is a lot of fun!

I think as a song reaches 24 tracks it becomes over produced and fake sounding. This one takes it way beyond that threshold. A nice thing about the song though is that there are lot of changes to make it interesting and not a long monotonous drone. However, the vocals sounded too feminine.

Not a bad effort from a couple of up and comers

Very nice. And it has a modern pop feel. How did you treat those vocals? Is that VV? AT? Or M? 

But, wait, it's actually a vocoder combined with one of those FX? And some cross fades. It's pretty cool the way you did some of the effects on the instruments too. I could never attempt anything like this. Which is one of the reasons I find it "amazing."

One of these days we'll be famous. Until then, back to the salt mines...

It was two different vocal styles cut and pasted together, Melodyne'd to pitch, then v-vocal'd to get that T-Pain effect, and then thru POD Farm with their Jet Flanger and some Cavernous reverb. That's all.

Nobody cares what Pete thinks. I believe that includes me.

This is a super collaboration from you and Cian, James.  I liked everything about it.  I'm glad you recovered from Sandy, and welcome back.
Thanks, Lynn

JYoYo you get me every time.  I never know what I'm listening to when I click on your link.  I'm rarely disappointed and am really glad I clicked on this one. Solid instruments and musical changes.  It kept me through the whole song.  Great vocals by Cian.  I am really happy that you have pulled through the national trajedy that was Sandy. 

I am always trying to trip you up, Warren.
