Hi,

I took me a loooong time to finish this one. I had the basic arrangement ready back in August but it took me a couple of weeks to get the solo part right. I'm quite happy to finally leave this behind and move on.

Encouraged by George I tried to come up with a nice title but I just have no idea how to do it...so I picked a patch name once again..

On the technical side: that nice and soft sound that goes throughout the song was generated by Radias. The solo lead is my JP8000, everything else in Motif ES.

I hope you will enjoy the listen

This is so soft and smooth it's like a synth version of chill that we usually get from Stephen. I am just amazed at how relaxed and nice this made me feel. The first half seemed to develop a bit on the slow side, but that's just a remark from someone sitting at a computer with cans on, so it may not really be so. The last half I found very interesting as changes came, always just as smooth but the different sounds and leads that come in are a very nice touch. You managed to keep changes going on here and yet keep the same general feel. A very nice piece of work. I can imagine a cd of this to use for meditation or something.

Rich rich rich! I have listened a few times before posting this.

The opening arp is smooth and cool. Love the droning strings. At first I was hesitant about the percussion: it almost felt out of place. Then I just realized it was brain. Really. The retro sound of the percussion just pushed this into the stratosphere sonically!

Then you shifted gears! Wow!

The arp breakdown introducing the second half of the song was both unexpected and exciting. And you really broke loose on your solo. You have delivered some good performances in the past and this one sits well with the others.

Listening on headphones is a nice experience (now my third listen). I really like what you have done. I long to finish my current CD so I can get back to some electronica.

This is really "A" roll stuff. Great job!

Hi Sewa!
As always, I must say that your tastes for this kind of electronic music is so nice, smooth...
I'm listening through headpones and the panning is so well done, it's something that always keep living your attention.
And it sounds retro but with a very high quality.
The way you arranged and decided instruments used in every section I think it's nearly perfect!

Well done!!

Excellent, and right up my street!
Fine job here Sewa, this is my favorite from you so far.

Thank you for the kind words guys. I am so glad to see that my effort was worthwhile!

Hi sewa,

I usually have to listen to your tunes a few times to get my mind around them - this is a good thing Subsequently I always look forward to your tunes.

Yea - the strings were cool - and nice bass run in there

The section ~ 2:00 was really cool - love that low end interlude.

Good voice selection and excellent audio quality as always.

Thanks Art, I'm glad you liked it!

Sewa, I don't know if I've said this before about your tunes, but people say they can tell I spend a lot of time developing my songs, I can say the same for you. It is very obvious that each note is painstakingly thought thru. Even when you've done something very simple it seems to suggest much pre-deliberation on exactly which pad or lead to use and how it will fit. This is something that we listeners really appreciate and this make us even more interested when we hear how nicely everything fits together.

What a lovely way for me to start my listening. I loved this from start to finish - the way the layers build is really good. The opening is so smooth and really quite beautiful and having the melody on bass added that special touch.

Great panning effects too. I'm on my 3rd listen with the phones on.

Well done Sewa,

Regards from
Dee

It's a cracker Sewa, I love the sound textures, and of course the way it builds.
The break around 2:00 sets the mood for some lovely lead work.
The oboe (?) at the end is a great choice too.

Your effort is most worthwhile Sewa! Man, the quality of the work here has gotten so darn good and this is certainly another example of it. Nicely arranged tones.....clarity....love the key from which it flows....Well done!
CHEERS!

Ron, Simon, Dee - thanks for the kind words

Super! I would not have picked any of these sounds ...but man do they go so well together. You are the consumate Architect, constantly building your songs. It is an unfolding story as we walk down the sonic path. The slow down around 210 or so, it is nice coming back to the groove with solo...Bravo!

If you decide a title it should be something that is evolving or growing like this piece.

Thanks !

Thans jazz, I really appreciate your comments. You know, your '5 AM espresso' is still on my mp3 player
