Where are you now 1

Where are you now 2

starting to get there... a few things will change (e.g. i'd like to make the chord in the middle of the choruses always be four bars, instead of two; i think one small tweak in the bass groove will make it totally swell; i'm hearing long slow moving lines now for the violin, so the smoothish forward rolling drum is the thing) -- also, the bouncier/lighter groove we tried at the end isn't as compelling as this basic groove (my bad!)...

Six Turkeys w violin

on its way... probably also useful to listen to the guitar and voice versions of this here at soundclouds to get the basic vibe (called Where are you now 1 & 2)...  Again, i think the drums and guitar should define the rhythm and the violin and keys (organ? string or flutey moog/organ sound maybe) can create a moody floaty vibe??  i can't make out the bass line much here at home, but i think it was sounding good...also, the original nugget is here at soundcloud, too, and would be good to listen to -- it's called jeff and ryan #1... 



Where Are You Now

i can't hear the bass on this one, so i don't know much about how the harmonic content is being defined... the thing to focus on is the combo of guitar chords and vocal melody -- the drum groove is really sweet on this one...

and, totally sorry about the horrible sound quality on all these -- don't have a clue what was wrong -- probably some setting on the zoom -- what a drag!!!
