It’s neat how that works. I guess it had a voice-over track sound to it :-)
Cheers!

Thanks Javolenus. I hope Jeris didnt mind the subtle enhancements. I always wonder if people would be offended if a mix sounds more like a remaster. I think this little bit of web space is so positive I certainly wouldn’t want to offend. Maybe those subtle enhancements are like a potentially off-putting joke… As long achieves the desired result it’s all good :-) I love spoken word both in hearing and speaking so thank you!
Cheers!

I like the spoken-word material too — there are some fine examples here on this site. I had a fantasy that an album could be made featuring spoken-word stuff as opposed to the usual songs. Sometimes I find spoken-word carries more emotion than belting it out in a song. I think your voice is good for spoken-word because it’s very clear, even when you drop the dynamics down to soft tones.

There is an artist up here in the frozen north of Canada named Bruce Cockburn (supposedly a world famous guitarist :-) but I don’t know how far his fame has spread. Anyway he does a lot of half spoken word, half sung tracks and they are just sopping with emotional content. As I singer I feel the spoken words often ‘grounds’ the emotion of the track and singing sort of lifts it above than base level of emotion. You speak about the gutters and sing about the skies :-) I have a big back catalog so you’ll probably see more spoken word soon :-)
Cheers!
