Title: Klezmer Kowboy

This could be a theme for a Spaghetti/Lox & Bagels Western movie. I hope you like it.

Hello Me109,

I am very impressed with the craftsmanship of this colorful compostion,as it's a very interesting & fun arrangement.

The changes are brilliantly executed,as they kept my interest throughout the whole song very well.

However though,in my opinion,the mosiac synths sounds are terribly cheesy and the sound quality is that of a ancient video game from the early 80's.

If you could upgrade the sounds,it would be a amazing song all the more.

Thom

Hi Me109
I enjoyed the originality of this track
This is a good composition

However though,in my opinion,the mosiac synths sounds are terribly cheesy

I agree 100% on the general 'cheesiness' Thom, but you know, sometimes I love cheesy  ;D
This is not a downside imho
Maybe the kind of reverb used here sounds cheap, and 80ish (plastic-like) anyway this is a good mix
Well done

Cheers

I agree with Thom and L.R. that is an impressive, colorful, well-crafted original composition.

I also liked your sound selection.  I thought it was very original and fit your “soundscape” perfectly.

This is a fun composition. The sounds may be a tadd cheezy but it adds to the flavour.  ;D

Shows perfectly the mood of that 80's spagheti western era  :;
I would say that if you emulate a song like this, you realy need that kind of sound, it wouldn't be the same with new and technicaly perfect sounds ...

There's no question that this is cheesy, but it works pretty well in this instance. It has a spaghetti western-like sound (especially in the beginning) but it also borders on old video game music to me. It was a very fun listen. Thanks for sharing it.  :)

Very nice, cheesiness is ok to me. Well crafted, and maybe a little over crafted to me but exactly on the spot. Thanks !  :)

It's like frank zappa playing on a video arcade game!
Very well done and enjoyable like a bunch of pop corn with artificial vanilla flavor  :D
Great! Thanks

How can you call it cheesy when I purposely included the jews harp to give it an air of sophistication?

Seriously, thanks for listening and for the comments. I just wanted to have fun with this one.

This one transcends cheese.

I don't know much about electronic music, but there is a sense of competence here that suggests what we hear is no accident. Plus, I enjoy a musician who doesn't take him/herself too seriously.

Thankyou, me109.
