.)

shadow of the sun

Hey, this is a great tune. Have you ever heard of the Bare Naked Ladies from Canada? very much in that style. Production very good, song works well...do you have an album on the way?...would like to hear more.

Haha - you ride a horse that never wins!

Nice harmonies - nice and thick.

If anything, I think the production is a little too thick for this style of music. I think it should be lighter and more "sunny". Maybe get rid of that bass guitar sound.

Forever,

Kim.

You got some good stuff coming out, keep it up!

great tune and arrangement!
I think in the verse, either the guitar needs brought down or the vocal brought up. Just a bit, there is just a slight imbalance there.
love the harmonies.

Another great one dekky

Yesterday your diamonds tune kept resounding in my head and this one too has the tendency to keep playing in my mind. Just a great song

Ben

thanks ben,

the songs were not done last week

, they were recorded over the last few weeks, but mostly they have a simple rhythm, main chords and the vocals, rightnow i am just doing the arrangements, the mixing and recording live drumming for some of the songs.

i have a whole lot more lying around and 3 completely new ones. so you better watch out

wow. you almost made me cry with this one. i hope that was intended, otherwise i'm really pathetic...

these lyrics are really strong, and the music fits them perfectly. or vice versa...

now i'll just go ahead and try to get out of the shadow of the sun and learn to make something this awesome too.

thank you!

ps. austere & i are still working on your "25" song.

wow! dekky you really hit the spot with this one. you've got a way with music & words & voice! it's amazing how touching your song is... truely impressive.

i have one or two small things that bugged me a little bit. the bass seems a bit dominant drowning out the rest a bit, wich is a bit of a shame.

the hi-hat(?) is a bit sharp and really pierces through my eardrum from time to time. i think the hi-hat is also not so clear as it can be but maybe that is because it's so high, i don't know.

i think it's the combination of these two "flaws" that give me a bit of a headache from listening to your song. anyway i dont have experiences or knowledge what-so-ever so i'm just saying what i think i hear.

nontheless i really love this song of yours!

on a whole your music seems similair to some of the great bands from Manchester, well actually i only know Morrisey (/ The Smiths) & New Order that come from Manchester...anyway, take that as a huge compliment.

if you ever release an album than be sure to let us know for i will be buying it.

ps. now lappenpop & i will go working on "25" again wich hopefuly wil be done in the near future.
