Thanks for your pointed and accurate review of "Painless". I was ambivalent about that song but your comment helped me put my finger on why, exactly. I will put that to use!

Thanks for your great comment on "Family Man", Tony! "Icarus Rising" has some really nice changes and the sax (or whatever that wind instrument is) is making me wonder if it's a sample or the real deal. It's really complex and just fascinating to listen to this piece.

Thanks Capers
You are most welcome.
I'm glad you liked "Icarus Rising" - it's quite an old piece (about 7 or 8 months old) but it seems to be in and out of 6 or 7 charts on here from time to time. It's always really nice to hear positive comments.
best regards
Tony

Thanks for you reviews of my songs "Union County" and the trip-hop instrumental "Con Spire". I will definitely take your advice on the vocal levels in the "Union County" and I appreciate your input on the genre positioning. You're a great pair of reviewers and I'm glad you listened!

Thank you for you great review of "Country of the Blind". Be as picky as you like -- that kind of specific feedback is exactly what we're all looking for!

Gracias for listening to "On My Knees". I probably could dial back the first verse some, and I appreciate you being thorough in your review. Glad you liked it, though!

Thank you for listening to "How the West Was Won". It does need some polishing, and I think it's more suited for a female vocalist, but I'm glad you heard some quality in it.

Hey, your review of "If I Was A Family Man" made my day! You're only 17? This is some interesting stuff you're doing with "On the Run" - get it transcribed and start showing it around, if you're not already, 'cause it's out there. Wishing you the best!

I appreciate you taking the time to review "Spring Forward" -- I freely admit I'm not an expert on Jazz, so I'll definitely consider moving it like you suggested. Nothing wrong with sound like Jethro Tull, though! Glad you liked it.

Many thanks for your review of my instrumental "Shiver" -- I'll work on that melody!



Thanks for reviewing "Four Letter Lie"; since you're a trained sound tech I suppose you know what you're talking about when you say to tighten the arrangement. I've just had to figure stuff out as I went along, so I learn by making mistakes and getting corrected! Thanks again!

Thanks for your honest review of "Armistice Day". Part of me would love having a real drum track, but the other part is dreading setting up the mics on it!

Hello Victor. You reviewed my song New Age song "Ea" recently and in your comments you asked for me to identify myself, so here I am! I'm all over the place as far as genres go, so there's probably not a whole lot I've written that sounds like that song, but it's nice to know that a Jack of all trades like me can achieve something once in a while. I'm glad you enjoyed the song and I'm listening tosome of yours now. I'd say I'm partial to "Summer Wind", and there is a lot of depth to "Tinscent".

Thanks for putting so much thought into your review of my song "Shiver" - I need to get some monitors, I guess, so that frequency separation doesn't keep getting past me.

Thanks for the review of "When There Is One". I'm not a singer by trade, so you didn't hurt my feelings any. I'm trying to find a vocalist to work with.

Thanks for your quality review of my song "Cape Town" - it was thorough and honest, but also encouraging, especially so now that I'm seeing its author's pedigree. Wishing you more success and peace.

Many thanks for your review of my song "Thunder and Light"! You remind me of Leonard Cohen in "Sister", though perhaps a bit more earnest and less tongue-in-cheek than old Lenny can get.

Thanks for your review of "Leaving It Broken"! I appreciate the feedback and the thought you put into it. I'm still trying to find that sweet spot for the vocals. I probably need some good monitors instead of mixing in headphones.

I liked the track. Set the limiter and crank up the vocals. It is very hard to mix in phones. you need some good close reference monitors.

You got the sound. Did you do all the production too?

Thanks for the review of "Union County"! If you don't mind me asking, how long after you got your songs licensed did you wait to see them played, and when did you find out they'd use them?

Good question. It depends what Music Library placed them and what the arrangement was. I got paid relatively quickly with ABC & NBC placements and the Top notch Cable opps......but those people file their cue sheets on time with my PRO. And others aren't so quick.......you really have to do some people's work for them. Some I have reeived no money from placements in 2009.

Thanks for your review of "Romeo and Juliet Are Dead"! You guys sound great, though Supercollider wouldn't be what passes for "Pop", nowadays.
