Hope I'm posting the link in the right place! https://soundcloud.com/pocket-sunlight/swc061-pocketsunlight-neverenough?si=b09adc52a7fa4bfc9c0adcc27f41bbd6&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing I was just walking in the rain and visited your SoundCloud. Lots of...

Hi, here is my first entry in a contest, this one struck home for me. I think you have a pretty solid song behind that chaos. I like that age and rawness in your voice. It suits very well to this kind of simple, honest and a strong song. Your song brings to my mind one of my favorites, John Prine's...

The throwaway line before the lead is "Alright Grady, turn that thing on" Kudos to anyone who can guess the reference. In my small world there's only one Grady, and that's Grady Martin, one of the most influential session guitarist there ever has been, and still nobody knows him. When I w...

It took a lot of work, but I finally got my vocals to a place that I don't completely hate (I know I'm not a very good singer). Anyway, I hope you all like it! This will become absolutely a great song. As your problem sounds so familiar to me, here's some tips from another music enthusiast, who pro...

I surely didn't expect any positions this month, as my submission was made in hurry. But as I liked the last minute idea that came into my mind out of the blue, so I decided to try.

I'll take the Musiclab's acoustic guitar "REALGUITAR".

When I played exactly the way you described it, it did not sound wrong. You will here very clear and distinct chords in this short file (4-5 bars I think it is). The three bars I found strange (but not any longer) are muted, and voice is replaced by sax together with piano and electric bass. When I...

In that new version there's also an added synth with my first self made Voltage synth preset. The synth is the saw? I later realized what you meant with that: my synth sounds like a real oldtime saw-instrument. And you're right. Although I tried to make a pedal steel, I failed, and by accident crea...

@Olli H I deleted the link to my short and edited version of your song. Maybe I need permission first. But if you want to hear it, I can post that link again.

Of course I want to hear it! You have my permission to post your version.

Yes, you're absolutely right with that. Those technical terms and theories start to disappear from my mind, so in future I have to be more careful with my words. Sorry for pointing that out. That was not an elegant move on my part :oops: No problem at all. I'd rather be corrected than to be a sourc...

B7 is not the subdominant of E7. It's a secondary dominant of E7 (V of V in this case) Also, most musical phrases get more dissonant up until a resolution. Starting with a diminished chord is a bold move. Yes, you're absolutely right with that. Those technical terms and theories start to disappear ...
