Time for a few overdue thank you's.
@shadowfax Thanks for listening - take on board what you said about the guitar, always good to have a second pair of ears on things.
@pompeyjazz Very tight pants mate and frequent kicks in the nuts from Mrs Yodasdad. Thanks for commenting.
@crystalsuzy Thanks for the positive comments, I did have some pent up ideas to get out.
@Jambrains Thanks for listening and particularly mentioning the imbalance. That's why this forum can be so invaluable.
@PaulAds Take on board all of what you've said. I agree the lyrics aren't going to win any awards. If I could writes songs, as opposed to just music, without the need for lyrics I would be so much happier. I find them so difficult and tend not to really hear them in other peoples work. I'm pretty much just about the music, no matter how much I try to focus.
@Movin Flavour Thanks Sandeep. I wish I could actually play guitar, it'd be so much quicker than programming them.
@montydog That is high praise coming from an acomplished writer and producer like yourself, thanks.
I hadn't made the GnR connection myself but I'll take it as a compliment. That SCoM is an awesome track, if somewhat overplayed these days.
@MonnoDB Thank you for your positive comments. As I said above, I only wish I could actually play guitar. Too much else to do these days to be learning now though, maybe one day.
@Inanité_sonore Thank you for commenting. I take on your comment about the drums, something for me to focus on going forward.
@fischermans Thanks Alexander, useful observations for me to work on in future, musch appreciated.
@Mikey it is a wah pedal, well the effect of one anyway, good ears! I take on board what you say about the vocal timing. I think I've got a bit of a latency issue going on with my audio as everything sounds spot on when I'm tracking it but not so much on playback.
@Skub Thanks - Your ears can't be that clapped out mate, you do a fine job of churning your own stuff out to a high standard.
@Neil C Thanks for commenting. If I remember rightly the key change for the solo was a ctually a return to the original key after a change for the mid 8. It actually sound a bit off to me for the first few listens, until I got used to it. I'll learn from what you said about the drums and BV's
@PaulyX Thanks for your positive words. I haven't been around for a while so hadn't noticed you were having a bit of a break to but get back on that horse mate, you've got plenty of talent that should be on display.
@Mutrins The production on your tracks is Top notch mate, mine is....getting there. If you ever fancy producing one of my songs let me know. Thanks for listening.
@Binladeda Thanks for your positive observations. The Tv thing..nah...I'm still waiting..but as I saw it on TV and I wasn't in it, I'm guessing I could be waiting a looong time. I don't think I had the right X Factor style sob story, which seemed to be what the researcher was fishing for.
@adamfarr Thanks Adam, I do like to try going whichever way the music takes me, sometimes it works, sometimes not so much.
@tboswell Thanks for your comments, I take on board what you're saying about the drums and can use your observations to improve this. I do like knob twiddling...
Thanks everyoneand Happy new year by the way.
