Down High

Description

Downtempo, sweet, & sorrowful. At least, that's what my mom said. Sort of influenced by The Flaming Lips but don't tell them that.

Garageband loops, keyboard for the melody (musical typing) & my acoustic posing as an electric. I'm not much of a soloist, so expect that part to be a little sloppy.

Really nice work, I can hear what you mean about the Lips. Not sure if there's any bass on this? Feels like it needs it in parts to ground it a little. I was thinking of vocal melodies for this ... it's ripe for them, but I'm not sure how it would work structurally, as ther's only 2 parts to the track.

Anyway, first work I've checked from you, and I really like this - it has a great sluggy/druggy hazey feel to it.

	mahalo... ...for listening... no bass, actually. the 2nd acoustic is kinda doin that duty, but i guess not that well. yah, only 2 parts.. more of an interlude than a song... and hey, if u got ideas for vocals, would love to hear em... Check out my latest song called Down High (vocals)

	Nice one I love the Flaming Lips and I think they'd be more than happy to sneak this onto one of their albums. Great mix of sounds you've got going on here. Love the guitar work as well. Check out my latest song called Iceland

	nature love it's pretty. sound like an homage to nature. It's very pure. I think I agree with your mom : ) I like it. Would be good to meditate with perhaps? I also like Echoroom's idea of adding lyrics/vocals, though. Check out my latest song called Este Momento
