hi
it's well balanced, but i think u could do with some more
variation there. perhaps play around with the beeps u got
isolated in the middle. nice effort tho...

hi
Hey, thank you for giving me my first comment! It is greatly appreciated. The
version I posted is only 2:27 long so maybe I'll take your suggestion and see if I
can put a little more into it throughout the song. I know it starts out slow and
dances around about two-thirds of the way through, then kinda fades away. I'll
let you know when I do and I'd appreciate your comments on the second
version. I have plenty of track that are turned off in GarageBand because I
thought it was a bit tooo much at the time. I'll give it another listen.

Thanks again.

At first I thought, "huh?" But 32 minutes later, after giving it some thought, I say,
"Wha?" It was then I realized that that my socks don't match.

Wish I was in a W Hotel drinking to this
Love the opening sequence, not repetitive - very comfortable, even soothing; could loop that all day I could.

Second transition MIDI lead could use a different generator or effects, but overall a great piece.

If you were drinking to this, what would it be?

I know you're not going to believe me, but I tried EVERY different combination
of generators AND effects and I kept coming back to this one! Honest!

Thanks for the comments. It really matters as it does open my eyes to other
possibilities.

some beauty sounds here-incredible synths. i kept waiting for it to kick in
& take off into something faster.. it just builds & builds.. & builds..

You have excellent taste in synth sounds! Thanks so much for the
encouragement. I kinda designed this piece as a soundtrack for a performance
starring my 16 month old Brown Bomber. She was not aware that she was
performing, as she was just zooming around the room, bouncing and twirling
with an endless source of energy. A great source of inspiration she is.

very creative
Nice work on the keyboards and awesome arrangement. It flows
naturally. The synth parts come in and you can feel it. I also like the
tones your using on the keys. Nice. Peace.

nice synths
Thanks Woodfella,

I'm glad you took the time to listen and comment. I'm a fan of your work with
the young talent as well as your Liliwood work.

Good start
I had not heard this one yet... but I keep waiting for the rest of the song to kick in. That said, it would work great as a soundtrack piece.

Soundtrack for your funeral
Hey dead pixies.... feel free to use this for the funeral. The happy ending is the part where the dirt hits the box. Huh?

five extra arms must be STOPPED.

Nice touch with the strings at the end!

Hey Bob
This is a really nice piece - it's kinda experimental, and my ordered mind keeps trying to structure this. I love the echoed-giutar-type sound here. The whole thing has a really nice chilled but slightly dark feel to it - one of my favourites from you you.

Dark Chill
Thanks for exploring my stuff, Steve. I've created a bunch of soundtracks for live performances over the years and this was one of the first I built using GB, for a performance in my living room. My 2 year old was the star.

five extra arms is not what you thought it'd be.

Hey Bob
I was exploring a bit here and found this. This is really good. I'm surprised I never hit before. This is a bit mind theater.

863 hits? 2 fans? I don't get it.

Great piece of work.

Brown Bomber
I remember that I had just bought the Oxygen 8 midi controller and this was one of my first GB songs I'd written. It felt like an Alan Parsons Project song to me. Must've been that stock guitar loop.

Thanks for listening Dave. I see that there are now 3 fans but 45 downloads! That's crazy! I love to see my songs downloaded. That's such a great feeling. Thanks to all who download songs. There's no higher form of compliment, other than bowing and throwing rose pedals across one's path.

You know, I like this song enough to fave it too! Besides, I hate to see my friends sitting there all alone.
