first one on top called smooth...

[Audi01]

wow what a cracker of a song

it's up there with long road home!

[dope]

cool
glad you liked it man.
i wrote years ago.. reproduced and remixed it a ton of times.
i'm still not really satisfied with these guitar solos but i can redo them any time and get the same shit... so i figure i should show someone this and see if the song itself is worth the damn..

ironically it was written around the same time as long road home.

[Audi01]

man...dope you can play the geetar

[moose]

Great song indeed.
Sounds great too. Respect

[dope]

thanks doods

i'm not sure what you hear at 1:17 moose.
the only thing that really happens there is a synth note glides up to a new note and there is a cymbal crash.
i'm sure the note is in key.
you might not like that note though.. and thats ok.

this is another one of those songs that i wrote so long ago and have re recorded , re produced, and re mixed so many damn times i just finally got to the point where i had to show it to some one..
i dont think it will ever be "done" .... i think i need a band or another group of artists to do it with me... like many of my songs... they just never sound quite complete to me.. and i think it's because i'm only so much.. i'm just one guy...
none of my stuff was ever created with the idea that i should be preforming all or even any of the parts...
i'm just an idea guy and this is another idea...

[dope]

ok sorry shadow... i got mixed up there.

your right.. it gets to a point where you just have to say....enough......
i never planned to be the vocalist for this song... i just wanted to capture the idea.
i tried to embellish it with what little vocal flavor i have... which sadly is not much.
but perhaps someday this blueprint can be used for something better

[dope]

this was as pleasant as i could make it without too much fx.
but yes.. not a good singer. i try though.. i think you understand what i would want a singer to do.. i just dont quite execute it like a real good singer would do.
i just have a boring voice.
i can try to sing different ways and get some character.. but you all ways can tell its just plain old dope singing...
i sometimes think that i would not even work with a band. i write too many styles.. i write singles... i need a label with lots of singers who need songs...

[dope]

ok i dont understand this song at all.
but i like your voice. it's a bit clipped cause of the cheap mic.. but i like the SOUND of it.. the actual tone is GOOD.. i like it man! it reminds me of sexy spy music
very cool
nice conga loop .. thats what it gives it all the groove!! it needs a real bass

[dope]

perhaps yes i could play a bass to it! i have a few bass guitars. i could try to give you a decent part if you want. what daw do you use?
