Reviewer: Monday Funeral
Positive Comments: This is obviously written with very specific purposes in mind. Within the first four seconds of the song, I was seeing Cowboys appear in the distance running full speed towards me. I have to think you’ve landed some work with this piece, as you offers a lot. I love the shift at the 2 minute mark, and when you let t guitar really play. The vocals at the end are fantastic. Totally works, and it’s true to the song. You’re obviously a seasoned veteran, keep it up.
Constructive Comments: I was a little surprised the piece stayed on the tonic the whole time. There is the modulation, but even so it sits on one. With how great the sampled drums are, as well as the overall grove and feel, it would be awesome to hear this thing at least go to four and five a couple times. It’s hard for me to constructively review this, as I understand you’re creating something that can be broken up for commercial use. I do think expanding the shape of the song with some dynamic builds, moving into some different tonalities, and some more vocals might not be the worst thing. There’s just so much there with what you’ve done with the groove and feel and arrangement. I would love to hear some slide on an acoustic guitar as well. Keep it up!
