That’s a great and very suitable accompaniment. The cymbals and the bass are great.

Many thanks, admiralbob! My goal was to be accompaniment; Not blast blast a bunch of madness over the top of Pitx’s guitar.

Nice restraint Joe. You have amplified the pitx guitar very well adding to the atmosphere and highlighting the wandering/climbing chord progressions that make it one of my faves.

Thank you very much, Scomber. This sounds deceptively simple. I thought I could throw some bass on this in 10 minutes; But the way that Pitx keeps changing the root is pretty tricky… At least for me. Thanks for listening!

I have to learn your restraint :)

I had to learn it as well….hehehe. I go through phases; But I’m sure to return again to the land of bombast and unfettered excess ;)
Thanks for reviewing, Ivan!

Listening to this a second time. Sounds even better! I know what Pitx’s stems sound like — Acoustic Alchemy’s “Drake’s Drum”.

Lovely. Lovely, lovely, lovely. How did you get the Babies to be so quiet and contemplative? I love this. xxxx

This is the first mix I’ve heard of this great sample by Pitx. Other than the one I’ve been working on. Oddly enough I too have pretty much only added bass and percussion (and a little voice and pad, so far). It is such a great piece on it’s own. You’ve done a great job here though of supporting it and letting it shine. Cool ending too.

Frankly, I’m surprised to be the first mixer on this sample. I actually checked Pitx’s page. Wanted to make sure it hadn’t been used 20 times. I’m looking forward to hearing your version.
Thanks for the review, Speck!

So glad you like it, debbizo! This might sound nice with one of your poems sprinkled on top :)

I would love to hear that ~ feel free

I’d love to hear it as well, but I’m moving on from this one. Just thought I’d throw the idea out there :)

I’ll download it and have a think about doing something when I get back from my trip interstate.

Excellent work my dear babies! Really, really nice job creating a splendid soundscape that could easily be used in a variety of places (beyond my headphones, of course).

Thanks so much, Susan! It might just have some remix potential. Perhaps I’ll include the stems. Very pleased you like :)

It’s always good to include stems. :-)
