Title: Lazy Weekend Rainy Remix
Post by: cowparsleyman on April 24, 2019, 08:36:10 PM
When I heard @MartynRich (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=20533) 's  brilliant Lazy Weekend, I was rather bowled over, but I heard it very differently so I asked him If I could have a go at a remix, he very kindly agreed to hand over his precious baby.

The first Guitar Solo was inspired by one of the other forum members mentioning the great Gilmour in one of the reviews.

The story set in the SoundCloud description (that's exactly how I intrepeted it the first time I heard it)...

Any ideas and critique most welcome, hope you dig.

The only thing was that it's SUCH an earworm, still hasn't left me yet...thanks for listening.

Well, this is such an excellent remix of an already fabulous song. You are absolutely right @cowparsleyman (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=21308) What a stupendously fabulous ending with the jazz breakdown and the lonely vocals and that cigarette was quite exquisite,  but as my Grandad used to say when he showed me his whittled down stop smoking pencil.....king can cause cancer

Thanks one and all, as @MonnoDB (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=19820) says all the hard work was done by @MartynRich (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=20533) - I just joined the dots differently, isn't it odd that I hear it so clearly in a different way? does anyone else have that? and do you act upon it?

Great remix of a top tune.

Well yes I did listen to Marty's first version.

This is a great remix CPM...enjoyed it a lot...some neat ideas and an atmosphere that enhances the original song to a beautiful degree.

Really enjoying the sound you're putting out these days. I can only dream of getting such a mix!

Super, loved both versions of this song. Wandering off into the sunset with that jazz guitar is a great way to end it. Impressive the way you can listen to a song and hear it differently in your head too CPM. I am now determined to make this weekend even more lazy thanks to you guys... time for a pancake.
