The eye of owl is indeed open at night! Excellent combination of Melody’s oos and melodies, combined with your sensually intelligent spoken word. Haskel rocks the guitar!!! Your artistry just keeps growing Susan. great mix.

Well ain’t this a twist. I am listing to you and Melody and hearing a familiar male voice and language in the background. Cdala! Oy! Such a mashup.

A primal rhythm with the ever bluesy Melody, L.A. SackJo and Brazilian Cdala. Such a deal.

This all started with Melody’s remix which included Cdala — what a cool groove she provided. Thanks for the listen.

Starts like sunrise whale song, until the pretty grit of Haskel’s guitar and Melody’s own voice adds some deep forest mist to the sound. This is really great stuff… reminds me why I never buy mainstream songs off of iTunes anymore! (It can’t measure up. ;-) )

When assemblings songs from different samples, there’s 2 mistakes we often do: lack of coherence, and lack of groove. You do it with coherence, and with groove, that’s not trivial.

Thanks for the kind words. I was really pleased to find that CSM’s “Listen to Me” pell was in the same bpm as her Waylaid track — and then, the tendency for singers to favor certain keys seems to have worked to my advantage this time. It was a fun mix to do.

I love it susan

Since you didn’t ask for any production tips I guess you’ve worked out for yourself now your stuff is top of the shell.

Two thumbs up from you means a lot! And I always welcome production tips (even when I don’t specifically ask for them) — so please, feel free to chime in anytime!

Woooo… ! Cool, cool, cool! OOO-ooo! (That was the sound of the opened-eyed owl.) Wonderful remix, Susan. You have such a cool, calm, sultry spoken word voice… AND that amazing singing voice. Hmmm… you rock! Haskel rocks it, too, of course. And Melody sounds so fantastic here. YES!
