Excellent instrumentation man! The electro beats fit in way better than I expected, and those delayed guitars are gorgeous. Great stuff.

shutyatrap commented on After The Meltdown:
Very nice playing. Its not always easy getting FAWM done when you have personal disasters going on around you. I could imagine a very moody lyrical brood happening here.

timmyriordan commented on Analemma:
Heavy duty. Great resonance in your voice. Very moody guitars and effects. I'm try to decide who the speaker in the song is. Shaman? Priest? Druid? (a) God? Demon? Run of the mill farmer. There is certainly a sense of grandeur and awe, (and foreboding) going on.

airbagtester commented on Stay (Ballad of a Peacefully Reforming Gunfighter):
Woah, nice! The King meets Gangstagrass! That bass synth and kick/snare gives the backing some attitude... sort of adds some evil, sinister darkness to what is overall a song about confession and sad repentance. I love this song.

I like your guitar work and the echo/delay. It gives it a trippy psychedelic effect.

This is the first of yours I've heard that guitar sounds lovely and warm. Very peaceful break after the madness of my last mix. Enjoyed very much. Very soothing. I see you're at 12 good luck over the next 2 days getting to your win! Wolf.

Song Comment - alyssa2 on "Worse Before It Gets Better"

Sun, 24 Feb 2013 22:10:47 -0600

alyssa2 commented on Worse Before It Gets Better:
This is one of those songs that makes the listener want to pay attention to the story. The dauntingness of the line "it's gonna get worse before it gets better" pulled me in, as I didn't read your liner notes before starting to listen. Also, it has a really cool feel to it that makes me nod my head to the beat. Love the guitar solo! And your voice fits this style really well.

rickamorphis commented on Penelope:
Good song about obsession...I like the way in each verse you get advice from a different "expert"...the chorus recalls Nirvana a bit. My favorite line: "Take down the license plate of every car that passes."

Hey, thanks for your comment. The reason for the guitar sound is I have strung my acoustic with electric strings. I find it gives it a really nice blues-y sound. I then capoed on the third fret.

Thanks for your comments on my music. I should be in comment mode next week when I've cleared loads of work and succeeded in my intention to complete another FAWM (I've got my work cut out there!) Those songs with my daughter - I think the good ones I'll develop and give her the writing credit for inspiring me so well. Maybe one day those writing credits may even pay her well!

Hi John, thanks for the nice comments :) Sorry about the loudness inconsistency on some of the tracks! I've been trying to find a happy medium between loudness and dynamics and using these tracks to kind of experiment a little with that.
