i like the groove that starts this composition off , and then builds from there.
I'd bet, that ever since this demo you've been eager to come back to it with time to take it further- yet the fast rush of life just doesn't let you . LOL. well that's me guessing- based on my own aggravations- of not enough time ! This composition though is passion - expressed in rock music.

I like the lyrics...but at one point the guitar and drum tracks don't match up, so it's hard to enjoy it. Sorry.

...a gem it is. Look forward to shinin this puppy up.

This puts my keyboard/synth track to shame - too bad mix was slowly buffering this track to me......
Anyways excellent punchy guitars, soul style singing and overall production as always was ace.

I agree with the other reviewers
-I like the overall way the song is written, the vocal melody and presentation(although it is low in the mix.
-Not to be overly critical but If I was to produce this I'd like to add --JMO--- that the rhythm guitar at least for the way this song seems to be written, would be better suited to a lighter voxy chime pop, to offset the heavy lead. IOW Id try to get rid of that 80's kinda Heavy power guitar thing and go for a fresher a more poppy sounding vibe maybe a bit more dance speed.
-There is a foundation for a very good song as its well structured, although the repeating, almost looped? sounding guitar arpeggio grated me and I dont think worked very well as it seemed the timing was off.
Just my thoughts ya Im evil I know but thats what demos are for aint they?.
I do look forward to hearing the final results.

Sounds great Dazed, but I do agree with Mike that the vocals are lost in the mix. It also sounds like the drums are behind ever so slightly, slowing the overall effect. Can't wait to hear the finished piece!

Great stuff Dazed, surely the right way to go. As you said, this is before any mixing, so your voice is drowning a bit inside the backings. The guitarwork is superb but a bit too loud in this current mix. Excellent / Mike
Just a heads up to also start looking for music from WildCherry, Saturated, Buddrumming and Dazed over at Wild SaturDazed .
Well I have not updated this...

Well I have not updated this in forever so here is a little background on me.
Music started for me at an early age. My father sang opera and played piano so there was always music around the house. Around the age of 12 or so I got a Tara acoustic guitar. I am not sure if they even make those any more. Anyway from there I went to an Electra electric guitar. I had a buddy who was ripping Eddie Van Halen solos around the age of 14 so he became my guide. The kid was brilliant. There was literally nothing he could not play including classical.
Anyway I started playing in a few bands. I bought a Gibson Les Paul Standard but was primarily doing vocals. I bounced around with bands but mostly played for my enjoyment. I ended up selling my Les Paul (long story) and this time, I had an Ovation 12 string and another electric. However I was just not playing as much so I pretty much stopped for 6 years.
Eventually I had the urge to play again so I had seen all of those Carvin Catalogs and bought a Carvin Cobalt Acoustic. Amazing guitar. By this time, my beautiful wife, WildCherry, had me building a website for her. It was kind of fun to do so I ended up building a site called Guitarstworks.com. Having that site really pushed me into playing more and opened up a whole new world for me. Home recording had me hooked. It was not long after that I bought a Carvin CT6M. What an amazing and stunning guitar! Then I added a Carvin amp and eventually WildCherry bought a Carvin custom Bass.
GuitaristWorks lasted about 2-3 years and we changed the name to iMusicScene in order to appeal to all musicians and not be specific to only one instrument. iMS was beginning to grow when the Mixposure domain was set to expire. Obviously we acquired the domain but at a hefty price. Hopefully it will work out for everyone in the long run!
Thanks for reading my bio and checking out my page. Most of all though, thanks for being a part of Mixposure.
