Thank you Carol-Sue and Pete for stopping by and checking it out!

I can relate to this as live ear the water - such a quality recording and a great listen.
I want to listen again to that lead guitar ... nice and controlled - spot on
Thanks Gary

Lovely ear candy~ good vibrations!

Thank you AvMo. Relaxing is certainly what was on my mind when I put this together. The calming mood of the song was strongly inspired by Eric Johnson's "East Wes".

Heard this one on the Mixposure radio recently. Beautiful track Gary. It really transports the listener. Music to relax by. Beautiful fluid playing. Congrats.
03/06/17 07:12:39PM @gary-shukoski:
Much thanks DCD and Wricky! I always appreciate comments and feedback!
03/05/17 09:49:20AM @wricky:
excellent work here, and yes, headphones are great with this! The touch harmonics, crisp acoustic rythyms,bass,drums and tune specific soloing put me in a Steve Morse Band frame of mind.
03/04/17 08:23:26AM @david-c-deal:
Enjoyable instrumentation and song movement. This music "sways" in a way that fits the cover photo you chose perfectly. You have that "artistic touch".
02/25/17 04:51:17PM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks Mike (Axe) and co. You guys ROCK!

You are becoming one of my fav artists on the site Gary.. Kudos!!!
02/24/17 12:11:03AM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks MTW! I heard some pretty cool progressive sounds over at your page as well!
02/20/17 09:47:14AM @winters-resurrection:
What an aptly named tune! Makes me wish I had a huge surround sound type system and could just lay in the middle, close my eyes and drift off on that canoe =)
01/16/17 07:58:56PM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks Sir Robert! I really enjoy your blues style in all the tracks you've posted over at your page too. YOU ROCK!!!

Hi Gary - very nicely written piece of music. Excellent playing throughout.
Excellent;
11/27/16 05:08:50AM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks sir Loopmaster! I had lots of fun making this track and it spent much more time on the shelf than it did actually getting worked on lol!
Hi Gary. I had to come and check out some of your muzik and was plenty pleasantly surrprised. Oh my, this takes my mind right to the Islands...Love the Guitar and you handle it so well..Well make track....Gosh this is great...

Thanks Mr. Carciello! I'll call you "G-1" 'cause you were the first Gary here before me lol! I've been digging EVERYTHING over at your page as well! Rock on man!
Excellent! It's great to hear this kind of clear guitar sound and production that has lot of air and melody. You know how to write good instrumental music, song structure has good flow and arrangement it keep up tension. Relaxing music, beautiful!

I listened to all your tracks. I liked Island Breeze the most because of it's openness. Nice and airy. I also enjoy you playing and composing..to say little about the mixing. Your mixes clean it makes my tracks sound like you have cotton in your ears your listening from the other room with the doors closed Bummers. You and Farrell both have very good tunes with studio "Store bought" quality sound.
Personally I try to do everything wrong that I can when in front of a DAW. Maybe that's my style.
11/12/16 06:15:38AM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks Larry! I've been back on your page here lately as well checking out all the cool collabs you've done with Yvonne, Joseph, and Robert. Some amazing stuff there man! I'd love to do one with you sometime down the road as well!
Gary..... your gift shines brightly on this track. Brilliant instrumental....perfection isn't easy... SUPERB *****

Thanks again Mr. Shane and my picture here was one I took at Coronado Island on one of my first daytime trips there recently. In fact, going there inadvertently inspired me to pull this piece back off the shelf and begin working on it again to its completion. Up until then, only the repetitious intro riff and the first 2 minutes of backing tracks were in place. It sat like that for a few years until a couple of months ago...
by the way , trivial , but, i used to live near San Diego, i lived in Vista. I used to go over to Oceanside and spend time on the beach enjoying all the time.
i love the interplay of the Bass in this. frankly love all aspects . genius composition to my ears. your lead guitar style is seriously fine. To be specific, the tone and texture of sound involving mild distortion and harmonic feedback, and also your phrasing, and the places that your riff sequences go is excellent . splendid riffs in this lead guitar episodes in the overall track. I notice the harmonic string strikes as well. Island Breeze is amazing and a major reward to the hearer. I'll look forward to listen to everything you bring out Gary.
10/27/16 07:51:42PM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks a million Dace! No higher compliment than to hear that a piece of music I made touched you on a level that could actually help cheer you up out of a funk! Rock on bro! You certainly made my day as well by saying that.
10/27/16 11:10:46AM @gary-shukoski:
Thank you Farrell. Much appreciated. Glad you dig it!
I like the opening crystal clear guitar picking.....beautiful work as it carries on with little subtleties added like harmonics and then the fantastic solo takes off....excellent!
Farrell

Thanks Thielus. I've been checking our your page as well. Great production and use of time/meter!
A nice dynamic buildup. Production is crisp and clean, well mixed. The main thematic clean-channel guitar is hooky and memorable. Rhythm section is tastefully supporting the track’s rich and dexterous guitar-work. Loved it.
10/02/16 08:29:29PM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks Sir Doug! Love to hear that coming from you! Glad you like!
09/27/16 12:51:19PM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks for having a listen Shane! Glad you dig it. Thanks for the kind words!
That recurring guitar riff is so isweet. Where's me cocktail? Cool tune, Gary.
09/26/16 06:12:12AM @gary-shukoski:
Thanks Trish and Dace. You both are AWESOME!!!

Put some headphones on, close your eyes and picture yourself sitting on a white sandy beach somewhere with a drink that has one of those little umbrellas in it and RELAX!
I'm an instrumental guitar player/composer, producing songs from my living room studio in San Diego CA. I'm looking to meet and compare notes with artists...
