I've been looking forward to hearing this since you recently mentioned you were going to release a sci-fi themed song. This is some masterful FX wrangling. Where others may give up on the difficult task of keeping the FX from losing the beat, you've pulled it off with what sounds like a very disciplined approach to your rhythm elements. I can definitely keep movin' to this groovin'!

Love this song

Praise indeed from somebody who knows what they are doing with keyboards/synths. I appreciate your comments, and thanks for the vote of confidence!

Thanks DJ Ursine. The virtual guitar was the only freehand part of the track, and I wanted to leave it raw and unedited to create the contrast you noticed. I was tempted to edit it and phrase it better, but it might have ended up "too perfect " . I'm sure you know what I mean : )

It's always a challenge to take a song in two different directions moodwise, but it is well worth it, as demonstrated here. In addition to a catchy hook, you've given this song a heart and soul that draws the listener in by evoking the intended introspective mood. I think you've definitely conveyed both the outer and inner emotions you were going for, both in melody and composition. Favorited!

Very chill groove! I like the pulsed bass under the drum breaks. The lead guitar gives it an edge that contrasts with the more laid back feel of the groove. Nicely done!

thank you dear sir for commenting so kindly on my track (republic of bigfoot), I'm very happy to meet your acquaintance. Your music is interesting and reminds me of Deine Lakein or Depeche Mode or something in that genre, but unique and nice. I hope you will have great success as a professional musician.

Thanks again Tom, for commenting on my music. This is meant to be about someone who is encouraged to be upbeat and happy and enjoy life, while privately they are thoughtful and confused, and that is why the mood of the music changes around so often. It's just an experiment to see whether I can convey mood and emotion without vocals. I'm glad you liked it. Next up will be a sci-fi tune, coming soon : )

Yes! Brings back a lot of childhood memories of playing video games late into the night. I'm not afraid to admit I rocked out to video game songs when I was a young kid. Eventually I discovered guitar based music when I was 12 and went down that rabbit hole, but I still get big time nostalgia when I hear stuff like this. As a side note, I hear echoes of Anamanaguchi in what you have here, so you might check them out for similar vibes (if you're looking for further inspiration in this direction).

Thanks Lux Lucis : )

I love this. Badass guitar.

Thank you Andrew : )

Thanks Andrew. Appreciate your comment. I wish I could sing better though!

Thanks James. I'm flattered

Send this to the Munich Chamber of Commerce. It is so visual. Perfect for a track with video.

Yep, very cool. Shouldn't be my sort of thing at all - but it grabbed me. Excellent sounds too, really excellent.

This makes me smile. Love the funky guitar picking.

V ery clean. AND about my song: FRED's...you suggested I develope it further. I'll see wha I can do. I just hadn't thot of that. Thanks for listening.

Thanks reefwalker and Tom. Glad you enjoyed it. I will write the lyrics up.

Fun song, Steve--found myself doing some air guitar on this one! Would love to see the lyrics displayed somewhere because it was harder to make out some words and I'm always interested in lyrical content whenever you step outside the instrumental realm. Looking forward to more songs!

Like train sound, clever intro. Hypnotic sound, quick! Pass me the pipe : )

Love it! Blues/ fleetwood mac sound.

Lyrics by Tom Browning Slight, crooked teeth, I hear behind the screens so blind Our, fingertips, burnt tyres and lips next to it. Down, in the suit that we wear, It's in the suit that we share. Can't you seek us out and then find, find, find That we ain't got nothing to hide, hide, hide Through, the dirt, Spring pinches it's deadly grip An, acid rain, ungroomed smell of it Slight, crooked teeth, I hear behind the screen. Our, fingertips, burnt tyres and lips next to it.

Great guitar tones. Reminds me a bit of Wishbone Ash. Cool!

Moody and deep, enjoy the guitar tone and your expressive vocals Tom.

Excellent Steffen! Emotional without sounding miserable, as James said.

Lovely! Really well expressed and performed. Good job Colleen and the guys

Thanks Tom. I will eventually come up with some words to fit and suit this.

Thank you kindly. As long as people like you appreciate and enjoy it, I will keep trying to entertain!

Lovely vocals. Great expression in your voice, this number suits you well, good work Tom!

Nice job Tom. I haven't heard this song before, but I can sense the emotions you convey in the lyrics. The quick chord changes sound tricky. Well done!

Lovely tone, a nice depth created, and great vocals add up to a really good sound here Tom. Like the way you have added an extra dimension with accompanying vocals. Well done!

Thanks Tom. You are too kind. I only patched a few sounds together :)

Thank you fairynuff!

James, love this! Neil Young sound to it, and great, funny lyrics.

Cool. Like the guitar start. Reminiscent of Bolan to me, rocked up and psychedelic. Very nice Brett, been waiting for more music from you!

This sounds tricky to strum and sing at the same time. I like the rhythm you give it, and vocals are good too. I had a look at Dawes playing it, and I was a bit underwhelmed to be honest. I prefer your version Tom, more direct and effective I reckon. Good job!

Thanks Tom, I appreciate your comments. Mixing and cutting loops to make a tune is easier for me than singing. I think I need more help than a bit of echo. Talking Heads were fun and wacky, a bit different, so I'm happy if I remind you of them.

Multi layered this time Tom.like the extra guitar coming in. It sounds great. Not easy song to carry off but you have done a very good job. Super!

Atmospheric, great tune, nice singing, well mixed, I really like it. Well done Steffen!
