all done in S1.

this is an instrumental rock song, the First of a 3-song trilogy, inspired by Formula One racing... imagine a racing fan boarding the bullet train in paris, to cruise all the way to Nice Ville, grabbing a quick bus to Monaco, to witness the Monaco Grand Prix! you can't really take a bullet train all the way to Monaco, but if you could!! this song.

i posted a demo of this when i first recorded it,
this is the final version, released as a single, or part of a 3-song 'trilogy'.

if you'd like a copy, you can get it here:

I have always loved your playing and style. This is a good song of that.
IMO, drums are too loud by a bit. I wish it had a wider stereo imsge too.

thanks so much Bbd, i had given up on this thread.




i wanted the drums loud, because of the idea of being driven by the train moving, the whole time...
i felt like it needed to be just a bit chaotic,
if that makes sense.

out of about 30 reviews on this,
you are the first to call out the drum as too loud.
maybe they are.


now, as far as imaging goes, i have guitars, and overheads, hard left and right, and the stereo effects are the same...

i could use stuff like waves S-1 (shuffler version) and really spread it out,
but honestly, i'm starting to hate mixes that have wide spread,
i like the meat in the middle. heheh

No worries.
Check out the solo section of this Rush tune. My comments were referring to something like that just for future reference if you want.

yea, i don't know about that clip,
love rush,
but this is a vocal driven song, with lots of air space and floaty guitar parts,
really not like bullet train at all.

you can float guitars like that with stereo effects that have been widened,
and it focuses the vocal more in the center,
but does not work with overdriven guitars as much, IMHO

love counterparts.

Reminds me of Satriani in the 'Extremist' era. Very cool track and tasty playing. Drums could sound more natural and some breaks sound a bit 'weird', which could of course be interpreted as 'original' :-)
Overall very cool.

I REALLY DIG that extremist album.
bought that the day it came out,
and it still gets pretty regular rotation.

well, the drums are all from superior drummer, so if they don't sound natural, it's just the way i programmed them..
and it's in the theme, of the idea of riding the train, and that IS weird!! LOL

thanks for listening and commenting

I was just in Nice and Monaco attending the Monte Carlo Open Tennis Tournament. They were setting up for the Prix. Amazing place!
