Description this is totally killing me; i usually just make up things as I go along and for some reason this time i can't do it. i can't seem to come up with a vocal melody that sounds right with my voice for this one (i was picturing a shoegaze version of Cat Power or Low).

if you want to have a go at it, feel free. this is a rough mix, I left the gtr sounds going for awhile at the end in case someone wants to mess with them as well.

here are the files if you want them:

Hardware intel mini mac, line6 pocket pod, iMic, m-audio midi keyboard, Ibanez archtop gtr
Software: GB3, the bell sounds are from jampack4, the rest are reall instruments or from jampack 1

Yum
I'm in love with an unfinished track just wish I had some free time right now - but time is tight. Darn this is purty.

dolby said 477 days ago
Hmmm....
...this is great.

Not unlike stuff I'm working on at the moment -

Will download and see if anything happens.

BuddyEarl said 477 days ago
hmmmm
I tried to download but failed, this is a sweet song

davisamerica said 477 days ago
lovely
kinda a pink floyd guitar in there. this song is structured for a great conclusion.are you sure you've given yourself enough time. birth is difficult. i love this piece.

michael2 said 476 days ago
really?
not sure why it wouldn't work for you. try it again, you just click one of the links on the right and it just starts right up. sometimes those free upload services act up a bit, but they always work in the end.

lengold said 477 days ago
Lovely
relaxing soundbed - I agree with Davisamerica. I am sure that you will come up with something great to finish it off.
Cheers
Len



echoroom said 477 days ago

WOW Micheal, this is as Davis said, has from Pink Floyd's musics and this will sound great GREAT GREAT in the new version (take) .. Just add some acoustics and solos and it'll works beautifully !! This is just great

Well Done !

Vic Holman said 476 days ago
you? huh? wha?
no words? say it ain't so joe!....as I type this out trying to figure out words for my own song. Isn't that the way.

Such a great piece of the sky here. quite lovely.

Alannah said 475 days ago
See now ...
... I'm kinda hearing a Chris Isaak kinda thing going on .... but then again .. this could be right up my own alley .... gonna save it (today I have a horrible head cold and nothing but frog croaks are coming out) ....

Diviner said 474 days ago
Nice
This is a really good chilled track, that really does not need lyrics. Lovely guitar sounds drifting over a nice melody and a relaxing beat. Great track.

Nolan said 471 days ago
A poignant journey
That's the "vibe" I get from this. I love it. Some great chord changes and a nice simple yet interesting and classy arrangement. It's definitely on its way somewhere good.

I'm listening to this, completely lost in it, and I scroll to the top of the page to find that it's only about half over. This pleases me greatly.
As pretty much everyone has said, this is a fantastic place to build from.
I wouldn't mind taking a run at it.

michael2 said 467 days ago
hey buddy
good to hear from you. go nuts, there is a link for the GB files at the top of the post. do what you want and post away (no need to get my approval - i'm just curious as to what folks will do to it).

davisamerica said 464 days ago
hello michael2!
Excellent collab. with mike. Your sense of melodies is amazing. The song is carried by that wonderful road to travel on. A hudge fan!

Beautiful
and so easy to hear...late afternoon sunbeams through a west facing window. I also love the collab with Mike and now understand the strong sense of your piece that moved him to play. Thanks!

Song sounds great as it is but vocals would be nice. If I didn't sing like a cat being neutered I would give it a shot.

michael2 said 411 days ago

actually did get around to finishing it. it's called Mountain now, and there are a bunch of different versions floating around by different MJers as well as myself. you can still play with it of you like though. thanks for checking out the back catalog.

They Never Fell In Love
Michael,

thanks for letting us work with this great song. My version with estellie is here:

They Never Fell In Love

Bob

dajama said 378 days ago
Very nice
I've just finished listening to five-extra-arms and estellie's take on this, and it is awesome. This is excellent, also in its own right, and I can see how people have seen such potential for other things in it. You are a creative spring. Nice work. Peace.

estellie said 372 days ago
michael
I hadn't heard this for some reason--only Bob's version, but now that I've heard it, I see how gorgeous this is! No wonder it came out so well in the end. Thanks for this. The guitar alone at the end I could listen to forever, like whales in meditation :p I mean that as a compliment.

but what a composition!
