Gain of Function
How did I miss this gem, Stereo is perfect and the vocal mix is great , I love the whole package , that outro is cool too! as your signature.
Hey Andy, nice one.... sounds good for my ears. This is you at your best. Some thoughts ...I always consider you a 'smooth' producer and with that in mind the glitchy synth/organ (first at at 1:14) is a tad above the parapet, maybe just high in the mix... but ooo that echoed drum snap at 2:29 is so cool and the following swirling organ wash n guitar - 'tis good ... Ending I thought was at 3:29 with the perfect bass drop but ah - no ! Love the track - Phil
I like this a lot, so much good stuff in the mix. Polished and Radio 2 friendly. Thumbs, Gibbo
I like the electronica/sonic gene splicing to gain some function in here, Andy...sure dark and somewhat sinister in orientation, but science is often that too...nice space sense in here...vocals working well,...personally I like the jazzy outro and wouldn't mind it going somewhere other than a whimsical ending, but I like whims :) Terry
dark and deadly sound to this track, has a bit of a morrisey type band feel to it i enjoyed it. , the jazzy outro was very sinister sounding. works well with the song
The very creative, and talented Oakwood does it again! :)
The outro can be optionally deleted LOL.
Dark intro for a dark subject that you perform well. Nice carpet combo of drums bass and guitar driving this along and the change from guitar to organ sound is cool and works well. Took a couple of listens and its grown on me except for the outro...lol but you were expecting that one ! Lovely mix and production Andy - well done. L&B;
Very interesting song moves along at pace with depth of instrumentation and a smooth vocal delivery.
I really like this Andy. It is deep and moody and tickles the cerebrum which is rare for a musical offering that is very listenable too. One of your best...can't specify why but it is my opinion.
The things that inspire us....superb poem, even better song. The keys and bass caught my ears, but there's some slick guitar in here too. And a silly outro, ha ha...why not? Enjoyed.
Compelling dark & eerie track, Andy. Love those bass lines and the spacious feel; interesting lyrics too. Great production.
Ahhh, the father of Albert Dugger has returned to the fold. Very nice one Andy. Lyrics and explanation are provocative and I will try to digest them in due time...(next life?). The only thing that comes to mind is hybridize grain, but I don't know where I got that from........Great production and everything else as per your usual. Love the "Riders on the Storm" percs and bass sound...fits the unknown feel of the song for me.
Please excuse the typos in my first try on commenting. My voice is shot and I tried to use the mic. Well anyway I was trying to say it sounds like you're describing hybridize grain bu the lyrics suggest you're trying to make someone feel useful that's just bricking themselves in. Cool tune.
There's something compelling about this piece that I had to listen twice. The lyrics are interesting but the explanation of them sounds like you're talking about The Hybridize Asian
I began recording songs in January 2006. Genre is rock, pop and jazz with electronica dabbles on a few toons. It's a hobby for me. I record using cubase.
Home studio using a PC, yamaha keyboard, a couple of guitars and a Rode NT1A mic. I use cubase for recording/mixing and wavelab for mastering.
A strange fact - in 1976, the term "Mega" was 1st coined by me and came into general usage as meaning something great or awesome. I was an apprentice electrician at the time and "mega" was a technical prefix meaning "a million times". I remember that all my fellow students started using the term so maybe this was down to me. Nobody hardly says it anymore so i guess it's run it's course.
Another strange fact - i designed a telephone for use in a mortuary. Dead interesting lol!!!
Nice strong melody & energy to this track, would be great for the movies.
wow i felt like i was actually at a pink floyd concert excellent tune.
James Oakwood is a new name to me from MP3 Unsigned but hey, he is a man in love with his bed obviously so he's cool by me. He's also a rock artist which, as you well know, definitely fine by me. According to his webpage, he's only been writing and recording since 2006 and features a tasty pick of all his kit (is that a Dell?); the kind of stuff you need to make rock music. Even
Wooohooo!
A refreshing track about my fave place, I love it!
Keep em comming Mr Oakwood!!
