Great combination of vintage rock-n-roll with contemporary guitar sounds. Bravo! (I so enjoy your work!)

From your recent remixes, I would’ve thought you’re planning to publish a “DeBenedictis ccM album” (if not, well I hope I’ve nudged you in that direction!) Love the arrangement with the chorus part, which was the best part for me A really tasty calorie-free cake layer you’ve baked there.

Hi Ivan, your right i have been thinking on those lines, thanks for the encouragment! (i need it cause i have ben meaning to get round to it, but havent yet) On this one I was really pleased with the chorus, but think i might have under ccoked the verses, could be more subtle , had a better build. Maybe if i do get round to publishing these as a CCm album i will make some amends to this one. Thanks for listening and your review.

I guess when you wrote “a better build”, it’s not so much the overall arrangement (which I thought was fine) but more of working on the transitions from verse to chorus. I was thinking of some strategic pauses? Or let the instrumentation intro each stanza and holding back on the vocals just a wee bit. Anyway, I thought the verses nicely complemented with the accompanying instruments. I would like to hear more of the chorus parts though (that’s just me). Oh, and to make the bass sound more beefy too.

[edit: listening to the track for the 4th time… I realised my suggestions seem kinda crappy now, lol]

Thanks for the suggestions Ivan. I was thinking on somewhat similar lines. I think the chord structure for the verse is ok but i should have brought the different elements in a phased way perhaps so there was something of a crescendo, before the halt and then the big chorus. Could have more fun with the chorus bass line also. (also i think i made the vocal in the verse a bit too loud)Any way the weekend is nearly here , maybe i will get time to do some revisions.
