Wow, suck a naked simplicity really exposes the rawness of the vocals. Thanks for this. Iām sure you know the harmonica has become quite a controversial instrument with the trending of hashtags like #stoptheharm This track gives me a potent weapon in my quest to normalize simplicity and reclaim the harmonica as an instrument of simplicity. Fabulous :)

The vocal seemed to say so much on its own that I felt something minimal would show it off. My try doesn’t quite work—needs more samples and perhaps more conventional music— but it was a fun idea. The vocal is a really good ‘pella.
I first came to appreciate harmonicas when I saw Greg “Fingers” Taylor play one as a member of Memphis’ Larry Raspberry and the High Steppers. In my daydream, a harmonica would be a great ambient music device, but in my practice, I have not made that happen. |

i really enjoyed reading the details of your process, learning more about your handheld field recordings and the variance you’ve taken in your approach on this mix. i find it quite captivating and can see this piece in a scene in a film because the imagery is quite powerful. lovely.

You succeeded in your stated intention of highlighting the vocal through selective sonic accompaniment. It makes me happy to see/hear you today. I love how you make and share things. Bravo!

I know this vocal well having mixed it in 2010.
It was intimidating for me back then to create something that matched her rich tone. Should have done this and saved myself the heartache. :) Something’s just don’t need adding a lot too |

With so much software available it is easy to build a library of sounds that can feel intimidating. The temptation to keep adding is always there. Here your additions work so well with this wonderful vocal and prove a judicial pruning of the urge to keep adding can yield fabulous results

I like your restrictive approach. In the simplicity, you shine a spotlight on CSM’s powerful and captivating vocals. Your sounds add a delicateness… a bit of focusing magic… Yeah. I like it.
