Here's a Youtube video that was recently posted public that I hope might be fun to share here. 

It was produced by a band, Glitter Chariot, which came out to my place to make the music part of the project before they went off and shot their video.  They did all their own video production, editing, etc. They did some final remixing on the music to sweeten the sound for the picture as well.

I was excited to get to work with them and I'm glad to see they finally posted the video.

It's a slow moving duet about love: Let's Write One for Us


We didn't get to the final chorus harmonies on this song until day 2. I was taken by surprise, and delighted when they started adding those extra vocal tracks.


Good Times.


best regards,
mike

Cool song and a strange and inventive video.  Well done, Mike.

I really like the song, and the video, well I like that too. 

The video has a certain "Cirque" feel about it....

The vocals are well done where the "band" kicks in... love the layering in the BGV.

Thanks to all of you for taking a look and listen.

The band members look a lot different when then aren't in costume.
:-)

They are all musicians with visual arts back grounds so the visual part of the performance is a big part of their interest.



best regards,
mike

Mike, you did a fine job on the production of this song.  The video has a professional look, and the band played their parts, well.  Kudos to all involved in this.

 Great job on this Mike. Really liked the band when they all kicked in toward the end and wish that I could hear more of that but the duet was nice as well.  Simple acoustic parts sometimes grab me more than the fast technical playing.The band is  talented and the mix works well.

 I sometimes don't "get it" on music videos. The graphics/presentation and feel of the music  relate in the way the camera pans slowly between performers. The slow panning and neutral to subdued backdrop add to the feel of the tune. I admit I'm not completely getting it though.

Mike,
 
Good work on the mix.  The song and performance was really good.    Can't hear one single thing that I would change.   Quite outstanding.
 
 
About the video, I realize you were not involved with the video....   I am sure there is some underlying artist meaning but I don't get it.   Not to mention that people that have a fear of clowns will never be able to watch the video;)
 
Regards

Seems sad. Is it suppose to be talking about love? Sounds good though!
