In the Garden I like this song, and also this remix. You did good to go together with this song. Great! |

Well now... That was pretty darn cool - I remember the original version... Like, when you sounded abit more innocent Homey... This is very cool Lisa and David - You are a couple of my fav fav, so how could it not be as tasty as it is... - It just wasn't possible now was it... hee hee - This is good guys - Very proffessional stuff you're laying out for us - And who would believe that this stuff is free - David, you have a BIG music making machine huh... - Lots of cool stuff messaging my happy little ears - Yep, I wanna get up and dance!!! - Congradulations - And - Thanks guys - Dion |

Purdy Vortexified You two are indeed amazing, and this shows a remarkable leap forward from your early works... both of you. Lisa, your voice just keeps getting stronger and more assured. Mr. David, your talent and toolbox keeps growing, very nice layering of sounds and effects, and marvelous job keeping it all crystal clear. This started out quite "full", but you still left lots of room for Lisa's singing, I was impressed by that. I like the increased tempo... my only gripe is that the chords in this song get a little repetitive, the chorus doesn't break it up quite enough. But the chopped up echoey down-the-rabbit-hole section near the end was really really trippy! Loved the intro greenhouse door sfx. And Lisa's vaguely creepy lyrics get me all the time, brava/bravo! ttfn, Drakonis (the nicest *dragon* on the western seaboard) :-) |

sounds great Beautiful work guys. I have to listen to it a few more times before I can give you my full critique, but man this is so full of lucious sounds, vocals, and textures. I envision hearing this in a major motion picture, during the "good guy finally gets the girl montage". Mason |

marching I will join in on the applause from the others here, to this masterpiece you two have made. Very cool marching groove with lots of excitement along the path to keep my attention all the way. Great! |

Pretty garden of sounds Well, when I read your mail, I was expecting some glitchy D&B/IDM track. Haha. Instead I heard this very well produced and enjoyable pop song. You nailed it again guys. As mostly, I fully agree with Eduard's - mister analystener - comments. So, not much more to add for this ordinary guy. Except that I have one tiny suggestion about the singing: I would love to hear you escape from that one octave range you're in here, Lisa. I mean, get on top of it sometimes. This should be no prob for a gifted singer like you... Walter |

very very well done PV. I do remember this song from way back. |
 | jgurner said 793 days ago |

Love it! PV's remix adds a wonderful new dimension to what was already an awesome tune (alwaysed loved the original. I like "dark.") It has a great flowing soundscape and your redone vocals sound wonderful, Lisa. For some odd reason, this tune has always reminded me of the movie "Legend" (in a good way). I guess the combination of the dark overtones and the innocent sound of your voice. PV's just done some amazing stuff with the remix. Just lots of cool stuff throughout. Great job guys! |

Super-di-duper! This vast transfiguration of the original song, from top to bottom, makes this extremely enjoyable. It's obviously a really dense mix, and the song gets swept up in this momentum that is truly contagious. There's only one thing I was hearing from the original that I was wishing was improved, it's that mandolin loop that is sounding like there's some artifacts from a key/tempo changing; it sounds a little warbly, and it would be great if you could find a mandolin player to record that part just to fix that little itty- bitty thing. But that's just me being truly picky, and feel free to ignore me! Great job! Downloaded! ...now watch out for the banjo version! |

Awesome! Great news of a remix, ledebutant! You should make more remixes of your things that are, you know, more 'ELECTRIC', in my vocabulary. It's stupendous! It's tremendous! It just takes my breath away! It is totally rad... I especially like the part where it goes up and then down in the tone. In fact, as my dad types I am dancing to this mix. It's just a great mix, ledebutant. Tell perceptualvortex that I say 'hi'! It's totally...well, I just can't say it...it's awesome... Sincerely, Your friend, thepeep |
 | ledebutant said 791 days ago |

More Electric I agree with you about my needing to juice things up a bit, Edge. I like to dance and it sounds like you do, too. I'm really glad to hear that Mr. perceptualvortex and I got you up and boogying. Hooray ! P.S. Still waiting on 'Like Rockets to Go." |
 | futzpucker said 792 days ago |

Um, wow? I am so impressed by the production of this track. The ideas used were very creative and completely successful. This moves very well, pulls the listener in, and then delivers on the promise. Everything works, all the fx on the vocals, all the synth sounds, the drum track, everything. I can see why you are proud of this, Lisa. You have every reason to be. And David has cemented himself as a top producer on this site with this beautifully executed track. Congratulations, you two. |
 | Ejh said 792 days ago |

You know, I never got it... ...about this being about murder and dark and all that... You'll have to explain that to me... Makes perfect sense to me as a sane song. And I venture to say that my son has no idea of a murderous subtext... Two innocents, we are... You know, this is some exciting ear candy, and it really did get thepeep dancing and exclaiming... I still find a great charm in the original, I have to say, but I also love hearing David's mind applied to recreating the world through musical production... I like the bright mandolin line... You know what I miss? the recurring synthy line... it's in here, but less prominently... I thought that was as essential a quirky bit as the calliopes in 'Being For The Benefit of Mr. Kite'... No question aboon it, though, this is The Year Of The Lisa... Ed |
 | Stun Nutz said 792 days ago |

And now for another honest opinion...!!! You've got another full-bodied production here, PV... overall, it is still quite an enjoyable song. The are a couple things (I am in the mood to be critial!) that I am not sure of, however... the production, while rich, seems a little too much, I think. Some of the pulsing techno-embelleshments sound a little dated now and probably could have been toned down. Also, the beat was too plain and regular throughout. I guess I was looking for more twists and turns... like your other tracks, but perhaps done in a more subtle way (due to the reflective nature of this particular song). There you go! Feel free to tear my song up next time! Ha ha!!! |

A really "purdy" tune Lisa! And as for YOU Mr. PV: you are amazing. I'm blown away by your mixes of both this and Saturnine. Abundant kudos! Be well! |

Skilful Skilful arrangement. No wonder you're so rapt with this. It must be amazing hearing a song you've written given this sort of treatment. "birdseed, raspberries, poisoned weeds" - you could be describing my garden at the moment. Love it! |
 | illuminati said 792 days ago |

One hot dance track! An incredible blending of talents. Love the composition work and Ledeb's voice is so strong and confident. This tune definitely has the illuminati stamp of approval. |
 | dreadmon said 792 days ago |

Really nice! I hadn't heard the original or the remix before hearing this and it's quite an oceanic experience, audio-wise. I love the textures and your voice sounds very strong here. The seeming randomness of the lyrics is actually very fetching. What a groove - you guy work well together! |
 | Komrade K said 791 days ago |
|
A most excellent track Really glad I checked this out. Lyrically disturbing however the music seems to go someplace else, somewhere a bit trippy...These two strands constantly separate and intertwine but end up making perfect sense. I particularly like your voice on this track - the production and mix is wonderful too, managing to be both 'full on' and subtle at the same time! A might achievement KK |
 | perceptualvortex said 791 days ago |

Ledebutant: I always enjoy collaborating with you Lisa, and even though this was a lot of work, it was worth the Mr. title from you. In The Garden is one of my oldest MacJams favorites, and I really enjoyed taking it out for a stroll to the rave. It had a good time there. I hope I passed the audition--I'd really like to mix with your lovely vocals again sometime. Thanks again for the opportunity! |

great voice like allways this realy grabs you nice feel. You just want to float all the way through. great mix also I can see all the work that went into this excellent keep it coming |
 | echoroom said 791 days ago |

Great remix Fantastic work here guys - I'm listening to this on headphones and the mix on this sounds fantastic. Love the little recurring musical motifs, but the whole thing has such a feeling of space and movement that it just pulls you along. Putting this together with your sweet, laid back voice and a fairly dark, introverted lyrics works really well - not only is it right up my street, it's parked in my garage. So often electronic music is stuck with 'baby, I love you lyrics' - what you're doing here adds a great new dimension to this. So, the album is out when?? Steve |
 | The Infinites said 791 days ago |

Fantastic! This is brilliant - I love the almost Middle Eastern groove that PV has added, as well as the overall production. And, as always, your voice !!!!! GOOSEBUMPS!! Thanks for this one; a treat! Jim |
| Rocha Malhada said 791 days ago | |

Whooo!!!! I'm floating... Nice, nice mix David! just builds along, take off, float and glide - like a magic carpet to carry me away from doldrum. Open the squeaky hinged box, the aviary habitants fly.... - what escapes is what sends chills down and up my spine What super sweet voice you have on you Lisa. Don't know what else to say, but how enjoyable can it get than all of this? . - Harold |

Happy songs . . . about dark topics always bring a smile to my face. Juxtaposition is the spice of life, eh? I can't say I've heard the original, but this track is schlick. Have you thought of an industrial remix for this tune? It could swing like a bag of bricks on the end of a six-foot rope. chugga chugga, (the sound of a shaking groove thing) -g |

really brilliant Great track you guys! This shines on so many different levels. Ledeb's voice (as fine as I've heard it), the swirling instrumentation of the backing tracks. yeah sure it gets my toes tapping but it generates some real depth with its flowing ambience. It provokes it own genre. Dance Ambient Vibe Enchantment. D.A.V.E for short. |

Fantastic What an enormous sound, your voice sounds a bit like Cait O'Riordain from the Cranberries but yours is gentler and more appealing to my ears. I feel like running out to my garden in the rain and wind and reaching for great clumps of of runner beans, jasamine, and Bougainvillea and holding them to my chest and thanking them for doing what they do. |

Rave among the weeds I can't help but think of Madonna's "Ray of Light" as I listen. That's a positive reflection for sure. The break is terrific, with the sliced vocal rhythms. This is a flavor of dance I can get behind. The step synths are tasteful and actually support the music. The various effects are all tasteful and add to the song without sticking out. Nice lyrics and great delivery! Ethereal and melodic. |

A creative journey... I LOVE this! The mix of genre's with today's more common beats. This is strong, very powerful and thick, but with your clean and contrast rich voice, it works so well. The lyrics are AWESOME! This is poetry and NOT weird at all. I can see may stories lay hidden between the lines, depending on how you which to read it. The overall mix is brilliantly mastered as well. Great work, GREAT! Like I mentioned, this has many things in it; to me, with my background, I can even smell some Simple Minds, but hey, that's of course me. Thank you very much! |

dubstar-esque i hope you like Dub Star - cuz this is very much like them - only much better! what a fantastic tune. love the opening fx of the shop door opening. the backwards echo on your voice, the tasteful electronic fx here and there, the lyrics are absolutely eery: i feel like i should understand them, yet somehow just as i feel i grasped some detail it slips away... very nice. |

thoughts from the bull... came across this one in the 2006 MacJams Retrospective collection. i understand why it was presented for that collection - it's simply outstanding! the vocal mix is perfect and the movement of the piece is just wonderful! there's nothing to say about this piece except "wow." this is one i am going to enjoy and treasure for a long time! thank you! |

 | LightTronics said 603 days ago |

hmmm... This is tight. I like what you did to it. Weather this is Dance/Club or not, isn't THAT huge of a deal. This IS a remix but personally I would consider dance or club to be more electronic and intense. I have noticed everyone has a different perspective on Dance/Club. Like, I have noticed that people who do more rock or lighter music tend to think more if it has a 4 on the floor beat and synths its Dance/Club. But, that's just me. Anyway, man, I'm rambling on here. So, ya. I really l like it and it sounds really professional. Keep up the good work! |
Cool grooves - but strange lyrics !
