The title says it all, I'm trying to find acceptance for my little tunes.

I am playing the bass, rhythm and lead guitars as well as my wind controller.  The drums are from a GrooveMonkee style.  I wrote the string parts.

I hope you like it.

A most peculiar tune...beginning with a clashing flute track that made me cringe(something of which,needs to be scrapped altogether...in my opinion)...but otherwise a stone groove of a song.
It has a trippy,jazzy "Joe Satriani" vibe to it...very cool stuff,actually. Cool

Funny ... I didn't mind the flute at all. I would suggest you turn down the portamento setting on it a tad.

Quite nice overall. Don't know if you need all the different instruments? Maybe just pick two (ie, flute and the guitar) to play back and forth with each other?

But I think the tempo is very interesting. It keeps wanting to go faster, but you hold it back. And that gives it a very nice tension.

Well done.

Good tune!

That flute sounds like a pan flute, and as such, very acceptable... Cheesy

Thanx all for listening:

Thom - I didn't think that the flute was clashing but maybe I'm wrong.  I'll wait and see what others think.

Bvdp - the portamento was actually me trying the pitch bend pads on my wind controller.   It's funny that you would mention just using the flute and guitar as that was how this song started, but I thought that it needed something else.

Oren - yes that was a pan flute, good ears!

Thanx to all for taking the time to listen and to comment,  I really appreciate it.

A very strange tune. Every time I think I've got it nailed, it veers off in another direction. Very well done, but a bit disturbing.

If you have a poem, I have a tune, and we exchange these, we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
