1994 offered just the kind of eye opener a nano second can unexpectedly bring you. You have a great soundtrack going for 1994. Please continue to indulge us.

Good to get a discussion going now, even if a bit round the houses!! Glad it wasn’t just me re the Floyd thing on this track, and now reading other comments from your thread, I can agree some Tull influence too...a rather excellent combination! I was late to the Floyd party, to be fair, being a total Genesis nut since forever, but then when I was invited to join a PF tribute in 2008 for a few years, grew to love their music totally.....

Hi there...this is the only was I can see to thank you for your regular positive comments for my orchestrations and Soundscapes!! But can I also now say that I love the feel of this track...may I say a bit reminiscent of Pink Floyd?....especially the lead solo..

That shoe box from 1994 must literally be vibrating with energy.... Like someone up in outer space could see it's energy field from a million miles away. This one is gut wrenchingly beautiful. Amazing emotion.

Oh so descending front ending then ascend to a massive middle eight . Great forward motion . Cutting slicing lyrics. Does it for me Jethro

Absolutely top-drawer in terms of composition, performance and sonically 👏

Different and beautiful. I like the build and drop, high/low contrast in the song.

Just had my daily listen to this song ...love everything about it 😎

Love the slow pace of this piece, gives it a bit of a solemn vibe Very well written and performed Good one, Andrew! KC

Haunting ... and beautifully arranged. Definitely well described as “glass completely bluddy empty” though

morning Andrew. Your secret Celtic self is peeking out here, I think you should be your self more often on this highland rank , cus I think its sweeeeeeet

Love the guitar on this :) They've certainly stood the test of time! x

Love that unexpected chord change in the middle eight - Great work!

I love that wooden acoustic sound. Nice little hook in there. It’s another winner Andrew.

This group of songs is just amazing. To think about you writing them in '94... amazing. Your guitar is just gorgeous on this one. Awesome all around.

Ok, grabbed me right away with that unexpected chord shift in the intro. I love your songwriting, man. The variety, the sonic palettes, the lyrics, the playing, the inventiveness, all of it really; it's such a pleasure to sit, listen, and lose myself in the song.

This is great, simply great. I love how you are able to sing this so well, even with your tongue firmly planted in your cheek.

Oh yeah...the slide just kicked in and the hair on the back of my neck stood up. Killer groove, the bass and drum lock up, along with the Rhodes...... Love the space in this mix too. Damn, Andrew, you are on fire. It's good to hear you making music again. Selfishly speaking, it's inspiring.

Exhales...man. I'll just say this is really, really powerful. And tough to listen to since I think I know where this is from. On a production note, whatever mics you are alluding to where a good acquisition. I love how your acoustic has been sounding on these cuts this morning.

Oh, and the ending...love the fade out flourish.

I'm listening to your tracks while I'm emailing in another window. Loving it all. This one made me come and have a look - I'm so glad it's called Home. I very much like the concept of "home", always have, always will.

Oh this is wonderful. It's woken me up (7am) and relaxed me at the same time.

This one's really growing on me. And I didn't notice the story behind it when I was first listening (although I suspected something along those lines from the song itself). A sad tale, but a gorgeous song.

Wonderful listening. I've got a piano, but it don't work like that one does. That was superb.

Yeah, this one rolls along real nice.

The "Ahhhhhs" (Sleeping with the Ghost)- it's just patience, close mic-ing and using your "head voice" (try and sing as much like a girl as you can lol). And then for "harder" sounds, "wail" at it. Lots of voices with uniform performances produce "smooth" and "rich"; less and varied performances (as in not the same everytime) produce sharper sounds. Mix the two up as necessary in layers. Also think about recording the "breath" in the notes as well. You're actually getting VERY close to it with the vox on here - think about using different tones of voice and it will all become clear :) Also there's a bunch of EQing tricks - a cut at 3K (Q 1.0) on the bvox will increase the breathy, soft sound (and keep them out of the way of the lead).

Oh I'll listen to it again here... Awwwwwww... Complete class.

Listening to it on songcrafters right now - this is BRILLIANT. Love it to pieces. Utterly brilliant.

Cheers folks :) This one is (out of what I've managed to record so far) actually my favourite AR song. I am hopefully about to post, hopefully today, a remix of it - the mess-up on the EQ has always p1ssed me off so much. For me this version isn't anything like it should have been. What I've got sat upstairs on the desk waiting for me, same performances, is a lot closer... But, that's just me, so I'm gonna leave this one here in case anyone prefers this approach (and I've got various links pointing at it that I can't be bothered to find and sort out!! lol)

Now, you see what you miss when someone isn't "followed"? lol This is fab too. Actually, I don't think I've listened to anything of yours since mebbe a year or so back on songcrafters. Well, I'll be back later and check it all out.

Actually, same here - hadn't clicked that button Follow button on yours either - fixed now! Might as well listen to this again while I'm doing it lol That chorus is brilliant. The backing vox, and then those descending chords at the end of it.

Back for another slice... and this is even better than I thought... but I've already clicked fave... typical Tie the woman to the chair, stick the headphones on her and make her listen (that's what I do lol)

Sigh... :)

Really tasty guitar addition to an already fab song. Nice one guys :)

... But this one's just amazing. You've got more like this up your sleeve - mebbe not written yet - but I'm pretty sure you've got them just waiting to come out.

Woo, listening to them again, and this one's a grower. It was late when I was first listening, and this one is stuck between two special ones, and it didn't force it's attention so much. But it's a cutie on it's own.

Oh yes. This sums up late nights perfectly for me.

I love all three. But this is the one that does it most for me. I love the swing of it, those "icing" guitars, and the song... woo Excellent work, sir. More!

Loving these vocals. I'm listening on crappy pc speakers, but big sound, and I love how those vocals sit on top of it.

Yep, another goodie.
