This was a pleasant trip to deep south. I love the record player feel and its been years since I've heard a dobro. This is really good vintage sounding peice.

Thanks very much for your comment, Chris. I'd forgotten I have a site here! You've got a nice retro thing going, easy to listen to. Keep it going, man. Thanks again.
This is a remastered version of DJam, uploaded previously, with Darrin Kobetich on mandolin. Look him up on myspace, he's an incredible guitarist! I am playing a National Estralita resonator tuned to double drop-D.
A little rough but I loved making it.
My friend Dave had bought a Roland GR-20, so it was critical he did the solo in the middle and end :)
Oh, all made on the Boss Micro BR. Love that thing!!
This was fun to make!
Just playing around with Hydrogen I came up with a 250BPM rhythm, added a slowed down bell track made with glommed together MIDI snippets run through Tweakbench Carillion, and some dialog from the '60s Italian Action film "Danger: Diabolik!" that…

A song about loving the real me...who do i see when i look in the mirror? Do I love what I see?....i really want to.
your wooden fingers have felt before
and now they…
anthony , good job here . very beautiful song .excellently recorded as well . my only crit. would be bring the music up a bit . the vox are beautiful but a tad too loud in the mix (IMHO) otherwise great stuff!
Seems to be that one song everyone likes.
