Sounds good Steffen! i downloaded the seps and might take a stab at mixing too if I have time down the line. It's something I'm trying to get better at

VERY nice work Steffen. That tightened up quite a bit. I like it a lot.

Thanks for playing, William and Roger!

You may not have noticed that the mix I posted here is different from my latest update in Studio "A"!

I added a slightly modified mix today where I hopefully improved the 70s feel.

Regards,
Steffen

I noticed.

Sounds good Steffen! I noticed the changes, also. Do you mind if I add this to my music sites (Facebook, IMW, MySpace)? I'd list everyone's contributions of course

Feel free, Roger! This is your song as much as William's, Mark's and mine.

Guys, are you SURE you noticed the update? It has not been downloaded yet.

Regards,
Steffen

Thanks Steffen! I downloaded the 1st one, but sounded different to me vs. what I had before. I'll download the other now

Torren61 · **Reply #8 on:** June 23, 2010, 04:09:59 PM

Oh... yeah. I like this one the best. It DOES sound different to the others. This one is tighter.

I removed the older version.

Steffen

Steffen, this song has a long history, eh?

I've always loved this music track of yours, and Mark has done full justice to it with his lyrics and vocals. Very nice guitar and bass as well, to say nothing of "all other instruments".

Thanks, Donna!

This song has received a lot of interest at a German site too. A couple of guys have done alternative mixes - and one more to follow (a pro!).

I've attached another update of my own mix to the first post. It sounds even tighter and more "analog/vintage" to me now.

Regards,
Steffen

Steffen,

You know my taste by now (or lack of it!).

Which mix should I download to listen?

Hey Steffen,

Wow - a delightful slice of retro rock. Loved the relaxed sound of this - very late 60s.

Solid hook and great perfomances from everyone. Nice instrumentation

Nice mix of exotic instruments as well - indian percussion, flute, and sitar??

.

Killer organ playing too!

Andy

Thanks for listening, Andy!

I wanted a 70s sound, but late 60s is even better for this kind of song.

Do I know your taste? $:-\$

indian percussion, flute, and sitar??

No sitar.

I've just finished a remix of "Jennifer" - that one does have a sitar. I'll post it here in a couple of days.

Regards,
Steffen
