Very nice song! One suggestion - there is some distortion going on in the left speaker on the acoustic guitar in the beginning of the track. I don’t hear it later in the song though.wagtunes wrote: Tue Jan 13, 2026 7:54 pm 6th track from my upcoming CD "And Now For Something Completely"

That's odd. I'll have to give it another listen. There is distortion on the guitars that's intentional but if something is sticking out as "bad" I'll have to check and see what's causing it.jcub wrote: Wed Jan 14, 2026 3:18 pmVery nice song!

Okay, played it back. What you're hearing is intentional and really very slight anyway. It shouldn't be anything that jumps out at you unless you have a very sensitive sound system. What you're hearing is a combination of the FX and keyswitching. I did some fancy stuff at the beginning before the drums and bass come in. I wanted to give it a little more character. I'm sure it's not going to be everybody's cup of tea.jcub wrote: Wed Jan 14, 2026 3:18 pmVery nice song!

No worries - it’s something I noticed in the beginning of the piece and then it went away. Thanks.wagtunes wrote: Wed Jan 14, 2026 6:21 pmOkay, played it back.

Yeah, the reason the distortion went away is because it was covered up by the drums and bass and vocals when all that came in. If I just played the guitar track, you'd hear it on and off throughout the whole thing depending on what keyswitches and FX were on at the time. I do a lot of automation.

I'm Just Chillin - Wagtunes classic...simple, effective melodies with plenty of 'space' in the lines + wonderfully bonkers lyrics that are sort of deep at the same time!
Personally I might've tweaked the lyrics at one or two moments in terms of the rhythmic flow, but I'm way too picky and it definitely works as it stands! one more listen!

Thanks. Appreciate the listen and the feedback. Trust me, I had several different rhythms for those lyrics so I can definitely hear other ways to do them. Ultimately, I had to pick something.ChameleonMusic wrote: Wed Jan 14, 2026 9:06 pm I'm Just Chillin - Wagtunes classic...simple, effective melodies with plenty of 'space' in the lines + wonderfully bonkers lyrics that are sort of deep at the same time!

7th track from my upcoming CD "And Now For Something Completely"
Every once in a while I do something where it just all comes together. This is one hook after another. I'm willing to bet you'll be singing this when it's over.

You nailed the guitar solo in Detonation. If thats programmed, its done well.
Walls of Glass - I like that AI voice, as opposed to the female one (or is it a boyish voice, I can't tell). This song is the one I like most, and a another good guitar at end too.
