So I just posted another another new song. As always, feedback is much appreciated. Fishermanbob and Neanderpaul I think you'll like this one. It's the first track on my profile called "How to Feel". Hope you guys like it. Now I just need some lyrics! Ughhhh......

Yeah I do like it A LOT. You can't find a vocalist? Lyricist? There's got to somebody nearby.

Great recording, great trax. I have a real appreciation of the drum tracks in particular. Keep up the good work. GJ.

I like the new recording...needs more flute I prefer the the second recording, Don't Run Away...needs more flute I like the orchestral nature of it.Yeah, I went back to listen to more of "Don't Run Away" and I really like it. The ending reminds me of Pat Matheny.I like hearing the piano along with the electric guitar. PLUS the timpani adds a bit of darkness. Nice vision.

Thanks for the positive feedback. Vocals are in the works Bob. Just trying to get the right "fit".

Great job!! The recording is clean the songs are dynamic, rocking, needs lyrics...sort of!

Wow, I cant believe your not already rockin out on MTV with your sound. Man your so marketable and I mean that in a positive way not a "your a tool" way lol You have alot of talent. Great ear for sound. When you talk about the vocals, are you looking for a girl who kinda sounds like FlyLeaf or a girl thats sounds more like Paramores "Decode"? or niether? lol just wondering. When I hear it I think of gritty/sexy/powerful vocals, not Kelly Clarckston but more like P!nk if she wasnt so Pop. A kind of voice that could belt out long notes and with controlled smokey vibrato. Anywho thats my thought on it Very nice work broseph!

Very very nice, indeed. You manage to use those effects much better than the Edge ever did. Great dynamics, I could definitely work something up for this if I had any recording stuff. Perhaps Paul could take a stab at it? Or Ryan, for a completely different feel.

You have a great sound, eseime.

I agree. This is *easily* the most commercially accessible stuff I've heard on Bandmix. And like Miggy, I mean that in a good way. Even without lyrics, this is better than a bunch of stuff that's already on the radio.

Eddie Van Halen always said a song had to rock without vocals before they'd put vocals to it. Yours do, IMO.

What's impressive is the recording itself. Whatever you're doing is great. I mean, this is by far the best "demo quality" recording I've heard. You could send that off to a professional engineer, get it mixed, and it would be ready to play.

Wow guys. Thank you so much. Miggie I'm doing my best to get to MTV. The music business is getting harder and harder to get noticed. I've got some things in the works right now. Trying different avenues. It's a long shot any way you slice it though. Glad to see others believe in my music as well though! Again, thanks everyone!

Little late to the party Tex. But I think you have a winner on your hands.
