This is an effective mix of prog rock guitar elements, spoken narrative, ambient electronica, and just weird sounds. Nice mix.

Awesome feel to this - unusual for ccMixter, which makes it all the better! The chord progressions at first are a tiny bit repetitive, but the guitar work is stellar and the mix is very, very good. The spoken-word is processed fantastically and there’s a great vibe in that “b” section where’s it duckett speaking. Great work here - a pleasure to listen to!

Thanks! You’re probably right about the repetitive nature of the first part’s chord progressions. I have toned down on the delay on Duckett’s voice after FB commented on it, and I think that it turned out for the better.

I also remember King Crimson. Loved the mix — a real treat. Awesome guitar sound. Thanks!

And thank you for visiting and commenting. King Crimson is one of my favourites and I know that FB is also an admirer.

oh Sub, my Sub. this is outdamnstanding! for a moment i thought you’d sold your soul at the crossroads and in return were able to play like Satch & David Gilmour (with decent tone!). but you subbed that out to two great players who made the trip long ago.
REALLY liked this. |
|
.
Ha ha ha, selling my soul wouldn’t be enough to gain the talent these guys have (both Satch & Dave and Edwin & FB). Thank you for your kind words.

Wow, great
. And loud guitars are not generally my thing but this is a nice exception! |
|
.
Always good to read that something one was a part of was a nice exception. Thanks!

Thanks sub, for considering me for this song. I really like the mix. Glad you could use some of the extra weirdness I sent your way.

And thank you, Joe, for helping me out once more. I love all of your contributions and your unique approach.

Great combination of talents.
You cannot beat a loud guitar and here we are spoilt for choice. Wonderful work! |
|

Thanks RT! This means a lot coming from a man with so many talents. Every now and then I need some loud guitars and thank goodness I know a couple of guys who can deliver that. So all praise to them.

This is great Sub. I like it when the word “more_” is used as a tag. You guys nailed it.
|
|
.
Thank you very much, Scomber. Just a question of teaming up with people who are more talented than I am. More guitar, less Sub, that’s my advice.

Talk about a split personality track for me - I the spoken word section is just about as good as anything I have heard anywhere; whereas the guitar section doesn’t work for me the same way.
But I will repeat that middle section over and over for the next little while. |
|
.
I don’t know if I would have been so generous with a track that I only liked partially, so your thumbs up are very much appreciated. I am going to upload a sample pack (as requested by Scomber) of this remix, so maybe there is something in there for you to work with.

wow-this is incredible—-excellent work by the troops youve called in and expertly pulled together by you. Took me by surprise on ccM but knowing a bit about our tastes from other sites this fits you perfectly. Very very well done Sub

Thank you very much, AT. You know, I never could have created such a piece without the contributions of others. I guess that’s the beauty of collaborations in general and ccMixter in particular. Glad you liked it.

Rock-opera-tastic Sub. Nice to see your talents in a different context. I’m a fan of this pella too so that’s double to enjoyment.
Great blend of drums and synthy guitar work, very lively and full of variety (I mean who doesn’t love a good guitar solo?)… |
|

Hey Scott, thanks! I am thinking about doing one or two more in this direction. There is an old song of mine that could do with a new treatment.
