olracUK Group: Members Posts: 1683 Joined: June 2003 Posted: Jan. 28 2006, 20:13 It is getting very worring when we can hear tracks like this, that are better than some of the stuff Mike is putting out. And he's earning good money from an internatioanl label, but we get this for free! The Mike samples/influences are maybe a bit too obvious, but the production and playing are of excellent quality. Perhaps someone should collate a "Best of" fan tracks CD and put it to Mike to promote. And this will be on it. -------------- The answer is 42 - but what is the question? Back to top

MusicallyInspired Group: Musicians Posts: 1445 Joined: June 2001 Posted: Jan. 29 2006, 00:57 Yes those were played by me. Nothing is sampled from any of Mike's albums (at least nothing I recorded). Finished product sounds amazing, Edoardo! Hats off to you for the mixing job, man. I LOVE those symphonic strings!!!!! -------------- BrandonBlume.com "The beauty in life is in the embracing of the variety of things. If all the world was blue there would be no colour blue."

There is no "right" one, I am adding this post to communicate my thoughts to share them with like-minded souls who will be able to comment in good nature.

maria Group: Members Posts: 928 Joined: July 2002 Posted: Jan. 29 2006, 06:21 i see mike's influence in both brandon and edoardo, but more and more is happening as it should, imho, i mean.. we are attending to the development of a sort of school in which the disciples -starting from what they learn from the maestro- are growing and showing their own essence. i honestly think that now after some years of listening to them i could recognise their sounds. Quote (olracUK @ Jan. 28 2006, 20:13) Perhaps someone should collate a "Best of" fan tracks CD and put it to Mike to promote. And this will be on it. i don't know who could promote it, but i agree with olracuk that it would be great to have not only a playlist with the best music here around, but also a cd which could reward the people who's many times moonlighting and making us enjoy with their music. such a lovely surprise.. this is the icing on the cake for a sunday morning when, after some days of big storms, the sun is shining and making the sea blue again. it's simply great to listen to u both playing together. -------------- ...morning and evening i'm flying, i'm dreaming...

I agree with María that, although the influence is there (and, as you say, necessary), you're singing with your own distinctive voices here, and magnificently so. Thank you very much for this - a treasure. Back to top

raven4x4x Group: Members Posts: 1535 Joined: Jan. 2002 Posted: Feb. 19 2006, 02:56 I've had this file on my computer for over two weeks and I've only just remembered to listen to it. Strange really, as it's made by probably my two favourite tubular.net musicians. It's very very good. It's great to hear such great musicians working together. -------------- Thank-you for helping us help you help us all. Back to top
