hey man, to me this is a multitude of steps above the average musician. Just my opinion but I think you are a amazing artist. Video was really cool too.

Cheers! I've been doing it for 20 years or so... at some point all musicians should actually get good.

[layzer]

really good tune, Sir! would have been up there with sunglasses at night in the 80's!

Thank you! That's a good song

I really liked this, especially the lead guitar break...beautiful, authentic 80s vibe. It might just be my tragic nostalgia being triggered but if you had hit those snares with a massive dose of gated reverb, I may well have been back in the school hall discos in '84 at Penrith High...(sigh, back when I had hair that I could still sculpt a decent mullet out of)

Cheers. I often do use gated reverb on snares... but not this time... although there probably is a little plate on there.

This sounds great. I love the effects on the vocals. Usually I don't like vocals with too many effects on them but the mix here is perfect. Cool song. Interesting video. Sounds like something on the radio. Really good work.

Thanks! You're right. Vocal effects depend on the song. If I was mixing a rock song I wouldn't use much, maybe just some tight reverb for thickening. But I reckon for synth stuff, effects just make the singing suite the music more. For this sort of music, I always at least have big reverb (normally plate, but sometimes chamber) and chorus... although chorus is really low in the mix, I normally have a chorus at 100%, but on a send, so the lead is in mono, and the chorus is in stereo. It's just another little "thickening" trick.

This is fantastic! I love everything about it. Of course it doesn’t hurt that I’m still permanently stuck in the 1980’s, but this could easily have been a hit song back in the day.

Thank you... I have a bit of an '80s fetish myself... obviously. ... good thing '80s nostalgia's all the rage right now.

Amazing! Yes I have a huge soft spot for the 80s but this could be on so many different stations on SiriusXM. It is a crime that more people won't hear this song.

As was already said, this is another level of production. Thanks for sharing this. Going into my YT playlist.

[Bombadil]

The song is very well done, captures the spirit of a decade that I absolutely loathed, musically.

But you did it very well! That is a sincere compliment, btw.

Cool! Thank you. I might try and contact them. However, I find it really hard to even get on Indy radio... it's tough out there!

I think this is really really good.
Loved the lighting in the video, the neon. Very effective.
A bit too much with the flashy box lights, but overall very good.

Liked the solo. Could have done with a bridge or chorus with a more major chord feel to bring us up a bit.
But a lot of work and thought has gone into this song and video. Well done.
