Thank you Bill;

Dave Gilmour influence but original too, not a copy

funny; gotta listen to some of his stuff; never heard of him :)

I would enjoy hearing more in this style - it has actually inspired me to do something along these lines for my next projec

thank you - PM me if you want info bout the vocal FX stuff.

I kinda worked a little more on the mix...no big deal, just to have the final version online.

Peace

Hi,

Lovely atmosphere and melody with fabulously recorded acoustic which matched your strong vocal.
I would love to get half that production quality into my recordings!

Superb

Phil

Quavers, Crotchets, Doritos. What's the difference?

Yo Butcher.

The start reminds me of that old vampire song Lady Eleanor by Lindisfarne.

It's a difficult format to pull off successfully,but your obvious confidence shines through and carries the song in a convincing manner.

A cool,well worked out piece.  :)

Lovely acoustic and delicate soundscape, all supporting your vocals.
Evocative and restrained.

I really like this

The vocal is perfect for the track

I like the space in the mix - although I think there is room to create some more space by EQing some of the elements a bit more

I wasn't a fan of the processed backing vocals - it took me out of the "acoustic" feel of the track, although I understand this is an artistic choice so not really a criticism

Great sound / production. Well constructed and arranged song. Lyrics suit the song.

Very good indeed, I'd be proud of this butcher. Everything works beautifully, the melody, harmony, arrangement and production, even the vocoder/auto tune type effects on the vocals work and feel like they should be there.

Impressive.

Hi Butcher,

Great soundscape. Love the atmosphere behind the guitar.
A bit Radiohead, a bit Aqualung, etc - a really cool indie sound.

I like the weird vocal effect - it works great in contrast with your normal vocal. Carries the song perfectly.

Arrangement and production is spot on for me.

Brill stuff.

Hi there - great stuff. The lyrics are really poetic and I like the fact that there's no very obvious chorus or hook. It makes it much more direct and "connective".

The music really created a mood to match. The drums are really really subtle which I also like - sometimes you don't even know they're there but I am sure they still serve their purpose. Great harmonies and I think the effects were quite daring, distinctive and efffective.
