Thanks again to everyone for taking the time to listen...
@Bankie - I see your point about the LVox, I intentionally wanted them right up front (It was a 3 dimensional struggle between LVox, that clean gtr and the drum buss - you know the sort of thing , a dB her, another one off there - take off the solo, then a here - like old macdonalds farm!) and pretty dry, as if they were narrated rather than sung, to put more emphasis on the meaning than the melody, I agree they could go back abit in the mix, so I remixed it and brought the LVox down by 2dB , and it makes a difference, not sure I like it though, I'll pop
@adamfarr 's suggestion for the door slam at the end (I've got one take of it , but I'm not happy with that either), when I'm able to get back to my music I'll post the remixed version here. Really appreciate the constructive crit.
@redrhodie - Hi Lynn, Yeah, I see what you mean, I guess my idea of painting the conflict were the heavy mesa boogie driven guitars...but your'e right, I will do a another mix with some pretty hairy guitars on it, I might even put it out to the forum, anyone fancy a go? needs to be edgy almost Zappa-ish - maybe
@David Christy Jones? or one of
@montydog - sax solos? Glad you liked the story...I think of it like going to the Tate or the National Gallery, a painting comes alive when you read the blurb. I imagined the bloke to be mellow and groovy, but not the bird, she was sexy but feisty and knew how to take of advantage of blokes using both.
@MonnoDB - Hi Karen - I have to ask where did MonnodB come from? such a cool name - glad you dig, I'm not really sure what the style is but thanks anyway, you know me I just play from the heart.
btw it's being released as a single on 1st Sept in all the usual places...
