You have some really good sounds here!
Very original, and nice builds with the energy. I like the beat with the
vocals, and I like the interplay of the synths with the guitar!!!!!!

Thankyou very much, glad you like it :)

I really like this. Nice wind. The artwork looks otherworldly...coupled
with the wind, the voices, and the primitve drumming easily transports
me somewhere.

The synth that leads into the second section was shocking in how loud
it is. But I guess it sets up the expectations for the loud guitar.

Speaking of, if I said I wanted the guitars more prominent in the mix,
which one of you would smack me? I'm guessing SGF. I think it's great
the way it is.


SlimGirlFat said 1114 days ago
...
LMFAO. I wouldnt smack you S.O... promise ;)
Seriously, I LOVE the Guitar work.
I'll let Pie answer your next comment.. heh heh

P.S.
This is the first time that I have knowingly consumed
bit patterns that were once inside a Quad. I'm not washing
my ears for a week.

Pie said 1113 days ago
P.S.
wait 'til u see what else my Quad has up it's sleeve for you

Ejh said 1115 days ago
I guess I was soooo ready...
... to hear a SGF intstrumental/beat thing have this much edge in the
guitars...

Retains the SGF sound and feel but has a whole other dimension.

Thanks Ed,
It was a real pleasure working with Pie and for me, it was lovely to post an
intrumental that Rocks.. heh heh

Bravo.

ledebutant said 1115 days ago
How many of you...
...think that Pie got all tingly when he typed G5 Quad Powermac?

There's little more to say that WOW about something this fabulous. I
hope you guys collaborate again because this is absolutely perfect
(except for that vibe of gloating I'm sensing, especially during the
guitar parts, for some reason... :-) )

This reminds me of the soundtrack work that The Police did for
Brimstone and Treacle. I've had you guys on repeat all evening and
your song stands the test of continued playing.

Marvy!

ledebutant said 1115 days ago
Oh, please
I also can't believe that this song has a rating in the low 8's. This is a 9.5 if I
ever heard one!

Freaking bombers.

SlimGirlFat said 1114 days ago
How many of you...
Hee hee, I'm madly jealous of Pies new Mac,
Funny you should say about repeat playing of a track, usually by the time I've
done a track, I'm pretty much sick of it, but for the months we have worked on
this particular song, I can honestly say that I havent yet tired of hearing it. and it
is played a LOT in my car... heh heh

fascinating
Great soundtrack material. It's a very harmonious blend of the two of
you. I can't think of much to say. Great sounds, guitar licks, and
production. A little trippy. I like.

Only nit is that it cuts off at the very end; the wind should fade away, not
just cut off.

SlimGirlFat said 1114 days ago
fascinating
Yeah, sorry about the cut off at the end, it was unintentional.
Glad you like it though. :-)

packosmokes said 1115 days ago
Shwahhhhh
Okay, this is NOT Soft Rock! I'd go either pop or electronic, but you gotta'
get "soft" out of that category... great guitar work by Pie and wonderful
arrangement by the legendary Slimmie!

Way to go!


Pie said 1115 days ago
Shwahhhhh
I'm gonna start a campaign to get a new genre entitled 'Rock'. Rock and roll
just doesn't cut it. I can't believe there isn't a Rock genre here. You gonna
back me up?

Cheers for the feedback.

Pie

Graphic fits music very well. Heated, arid, sometimes disorienting, bright,
sometimes harsh, high contrast and beautiful.

alley-oop said 1115 days ago
pro
very clean, very pro. Two talented players. very nice. Guitars had a Jeff Beck-ish feel to them. Or should say they had a Pie-ish feel to them. SlimGF, incredibly tasty as usual. Great job

SlimGirlFat said 1114 days ago

Why Thankyou Mr Oop!

if i have ever
seen lower scores for a GREAT song, I can't remember!...people that
can't hear the skill, and depth of thought, and hard effen work involved
in this great instrumental have to be DEEEEEF!!! Even if you hate this
style of music, you have to be able to hear the quality!!!!

Please think about making more together guys....your styles are GREAT
together, and after working with slimmie on a tune pie, i know what
fun that is!! don't let a little ignorance slow you down fer cryin out
loud!!

sorry, venting...back to work!

thoddi said 1115 days ago
way cool
Great! No need for saying other than others have said about the positive energy that floats with this:)

D/L - faved'

gavin_sasser said 1114 days ago
cool sound
i really like the sound, it starts off very catchy and just kind of drags you
in waiting for what happens next. i really like the synthesized sound. it
sounds like it could be a chase scene in some psychological thriller.

_nderscore said 1114 days ago
this is heaven.
more mixes!!! beautiful work, you two. very complimentary, wonderful
ambience

ronnielong said 1114 days ago

drakonis said 1113 days ago
Another great journey
Really great concept from beginning to end... nice buildup, just when
things are about to be repetitive, some whole new direction kicks in,
but related to the last in a seamless (ugh, I hate that word)
progression. The music coupled with the nice image made me think of
little desert creatures (mostly scorpions, for some reason) scuttling off
to hide in the shade from the increasing furnace of the day. Hot stuff
you two! Very tight playing/singing/production.
ttfn,
Drakonis

Mystified said 1111 days ago
Glad you two...
...finally worked things out so this could be posted! :P

Excellence!

thetiler said 1111 days ago
like that wind
Nice effects, like those echo sounds. Nice stuff here.

Like the rhythm part how stuff comes. Nice rockin guitar.

Thanks for sharing

dpower said 1109 days ago
wicked good
great guitar work - especially on the harmony guitar parts and all around a solid production.




fairy beth said 1109 days ago

Wicked! Got my vote ;-)

gumbi Ortiz said 1108 days ago
very nice!
man this is really great...great sounds great structure and wonderful
effects ..great guitar riff!!! i am a fan!!!

Cool
mix of electronica and rock very tasty guitar work nice use of samples
great production only nit pick is the lead guitars need to be louder at
least the leads with the volume pedal effects .

Drew Kopr said 1091 days ago
Interesting....
This turned out really cool! My only constructive crticism is I would cut the guitar parts in half and replace them with super Slimmie vocals.

illuminati said 1090 days ago
Very pro piece and mix
Lots of depth and air in this tune. Well, mixed and well played. I especially
like how the effects are used to tastefully give body to the sounds,
including the guitar. Definitely like the coolest soundtrack work out there.

poodyglitz said 1053 days ago
Ooooohhhh...
I want to jam with you! Nice textures. Great modulation. The fight
was well worth it.

Karmatoburn said 870 days ago
wow
otherwordly, I like it a lot. You guys play together well. Think you came
to a good conclusion how things should be mixed. Excellent guitar
work and the bed of sounds he had to play over was awesome.
