Not sure you need a longer intro... possibly just the same notes but not as full a production (or processed so that it sounds like it's from a tinny mono radio or something like that?).

Great song - great production - and I like the variation between sections.

Cheers,
Terry.

Terry, thanks for the suggestion.  I like your idea about the intro a lot, and it makes sense to reduce it rather than expand it.  This is the kind of ideas that I love to hear.  I love the beginning to your new album, btw.

lol, yep here's me suggesting that you take it down a notch in your intro when the intro to my new album is overly bombastic and 'in yer face'... hypocritical much? 





Cheers,
Terry.

Hi Lynn,
 This song groove seems really solid but I do sort of agree that the synth seems somewhat out of place.

 How about a Tijuana Brass type approach where the synth becomes some horn section stabs? The song already has a border music feel... maybe some horns?

 Anyways, I usually refrain from saying stuff like that... but I really like the rhythm section groove you have going and I'm hearing horns in my head. :-)


 all the best,
mike

Mike, I like horns, too.  That's a good idea, and I'll audition them when I remix this.  I'm so grateful to have your ears involved in this project.  Stay tuned.

Lynn, this rocks..  I like it a lot.  I find myself listening to it again and again.  Trying to learn from the mix, and the way you have your drums and bass here.  Also the warmth and wideness, and where your bass is.  The other percussive elements are something I've been trying to do with my stuff for a long time.  What really gets me is how all these instruments come through so clearly, and nothing is too loud, or too quiet.

I like the synths and snare...  I guess we all have different ears.

Laters..

Jonathan, thank you so much for your feedback.  I've been working on a side project lately, but I'm going to evaluate all of the feedback I've received and do a remix soon.  You have become one of the coproducers of this song, so thanks again.

this is outstanding Lynn... really fine songwriting and playing...
I'd like to hear an intro and ending though... Very well done...

Frank, thanks for taking the time to listen and reply.  I was so pleased to hear your latest song the other day.  I concur with your and other's conclusions about the beginning and end, so stay tuned, and I will get back to this after I finish the side project I'm working on.

sounds good but something is missing. some effect sounds delorian inside of d-pro maybe. you have played some breaks but you didn't care enough. the second break starts up too early try to play it abit longer. (only some milliseconds). all in all a very good work.
