My heart is something that should be in the percussion music.

This is nice. Although I will say the combination of the familiar melody is a little jarring, I know that’s simply a cultural factor on my part. This does work in terms of tone and melodies.

I realize from your perspective (not knowing We Three Kings) it may not seem like it, but from my perspective this is a brilliant concept, putting a different song over a familiar standard. And you did it so well. I think I would have let the guitar be alone until ‘I’m upside down…’ but from that moment on - love it.

Cool concept, R. Was listening and said, “hey, We Three King!”

what an excellent pairing…
unexpected pairing of the vocal with the Three Kings…
it works perfectly.
Lovely.

Wow! This must have taken some work because I know how loose the tempo was on my recording (I didn’t use a metronome at all) and I know that snowflake usually has pretty strict timing on all her stuff. I can imagine the nightmare it was to line up the two. But your efforts were worth it. I think this turned out lovely!

Oh, and for what it’s worth, using the We Three Kings melody doesn’t bother me much at all. And having arranged the song, the original melody and words are very much engraved in my mind. I was just mentioning to Speck the other day how much I enjoy people taking a very familiar melody and putting it on top of a new (but still harmonically sound) chord pattern, or vice versa. Nice work in that regard.

I particularly enjoyed the “swing on the spiral” outro bits. Very nice match and very nice feel to it!

Well, I had thought about doing an Open remix at some point but now you’ve done it for me. One more thing off the To-Do list. Thanks! :D

this is so cool! very unique combination - enough to bend my mind but also engage my heart. nicely done. peace.

Wow! I absolutely love this track. Being sufficiently unfamiliar with the melody of We Three Kings, I was able to unabashedly appreciate the skill you brought to this track which accentuates the beauty of Snowflake’s voice and the delicacy of Clarence’s playing. Bravo!

Really nice pairing. Understand and admire the chopping up effort. The result is beautiful.

me rikey!
