Mines of Mirak oh wow - this is just such a great listen. Incredible collab and neil, I'm so impressed by what you're getting out of logic - sigh - you're so brave. I LOVE these lyrics - this is a collab team that MUST continue! |

you know? I love the rich, full sound on this one. Synths are superb. Your voice is mixed quite well. I very much enjoyed this. Reminded me a Peter Gabriel, musically. Have to say, one of your best! Dave |

Cool Neil I love your work here... And I wish I had LOGIC STUDIO as well. I have borrow L Pro 8 from a friend who want to sell to me... I maybe buy it... But right now I don't really now what I'm doing in it..lol I wish I was better in English terms it's so many things I don't really understand in this app... You're a mix master in it... Cool collab great mix... Cheers Kenta |

Loving it Right off the bat I love it. Great groove and I think your vocals on this are perfect. Love the whole lyrical theme. I'll have to go find the original piece you built this off of. From what you said it sounds like you really worked it over. The mix on this is particularly good too. In the long instrumental stretch at the end I think it would be cool to have some kind of wild instrument solo, something quirky. Imagining Herbie Hancock on keys. I like this a lot Neil. Very cool. |

Wayhay! Can you favourite your own song? Well I have anyway. You've done a top on this Neil - I love it. |

It works well The soundbed is great for this story. Made me imagine a life without any sunshine! Cool collab, guys! |

really cool But the first thing I thought would be also cool would be if the vocal was entirely vocoderized by the EVOC. It just would make it not jiguma sounding and more Retro Plein. davajonah's stuff is always so cool and I'm just so glad you got a collab with him going, and of course it's really cool just as it is, too. Some of those bell sounds are a bit piercing, but only a bit. It's all good. |

Mines of Mirak Nice track Neil.. a different sound for you but it works really well. Is it me or do you sound a bit like a ghostly Simon Le Bon on this one hehe? I half expect the chorus of 'Girls on film' to appear. The bass sounds a bit like 80's band Japan too cool song Steve |

out of the ordinary thing for you, it seems, but what a nice fit! Nice bed of electronic for you to expand on. . - Harold |

Feel that 'snat' It's good to try something different from time to time - and extra specially good if it works as well as this. The collaboration on lyrics as been very successful too. Perhaps the track was a tadge overlong but it gels strongly and doesn't feel at all like an overlay on someone else's track. That luscious fretless bass sound is well and truly lodged in my brain.

I got to get in here too and say, " it really is". All the above and then some like this might replace the Hall an Oats on future scoreboards on the charts. The vox to me could go up one mm, but then I'm listening to this with really old ears. Nice work, will stay tuned to this same bat station to see what'cha got next in mind. |

MINES OF MIRAK groovy collab! the mood and instrumentation sort of remind me of japan (the band), and broken frame-era depeche mode. the vocals are very cool! cheerz, -=ez |

Bass That bass line is soooo cool! Listening again, all the synths and drum beats work well to provide the quirky sci fi atmosphere for those lyrics. Thanks Bill |

A lot of cool stuff going on... The fretless bass line(s) especially... The sci-fi lyrics work for me... Neil, you've become one of the MacJams masters of the compressor. On this one, though, I find myself wondering if it would work better to have less compression on the vocal, so that in that one area there's more 'life', and so you have to 'work' your voice more and get a little on the edge of wild... That's only a thought, though. It hasn't even risen to the level of 'suggestion'... Ed |

What a surprise! Inspired collaboration. Davajonah laid down a great bed for you to jump in and play on. Really enjoyed this. Great production all round. Cheers Len |
great combination of sounds.... it's worked out perfectly. This could be a new found branching out for you both. Excellent sounds from both sides and the lyrics as always are great Neil. Really original sounding piece, cheers M
