Thank you @clioem for your comments on Building Walls. It’s how I like pipes to kind of punch through, I have two more things up my hat for 2023… I am almost done.

Hi @clioem its actually just 3/4 time ;-)
I am especially proud of the harmonies on this one!

Such a great FAWM for you!

Thanks for your comment on "Magnetic Rose". I enjoy how everything filled into place so naturally. I couldn't resist going full production even if it's hard for me to do during FAWM. Glad you enjoyed!

Thank you for the comment on "Waiting" and thank you for teaching me that hemiolas have a name! 😀

😍

Hey thanks for the response on the price of my T Shirt! Nobody has purchased one since May 2022! I have sold about 15 of them total. I had most of those sales in one day from putting it on Reddit but within hours there were fakes being sold!

Thx a lot for comments on Big Cinema part 5. Much appreciated!

Hi all, I had the dreaded covid so I was out of commission for a week there, but I am back now!

Thanks for commenting on my collab song with crisp1 "All the Time in the World".

Thanks for checking out Superhuman. So glad you enjoyed it :)

Thank you for the kind words for ‘measure of distance’! A real compliment 😊

Thank you for the kind comment on "Passengers". I really appreciate it. 🙂

Oh, wow what a beautiful comment you left on human design. I totally get what you mean - fear and adrenaline totally pushes one forward but it’s the cultivation of a slow confidence that I’m really seeking now… good luck on your journey too. :) -ru

Maybe it's just that my bitrate is high? I record at 320kbps instead of 128kbps for my mp3s so if you're listening on mobile, for instance, more buffering etc might be needed?

Weird that the song is cutting out; I'm not having any issues on my end (and my server is a different host than my ISP) but I've heard a couple different people say they have troubles with my songs that way. Odd. 🙁

Thanks for the kind words! The choirs I used were Heavyocity's free Foundations "Emo choir" Spitfire's "Epic Choir" and various patches on my Korg M3. I'll check out the VSL choir; you can never have too many choral plugins!

Hello Clio! Happy FAWMing to you! 😀

Hello again! Thanks for the comments and frog appreciation!

Thanks for the listen and comment on 'Spark' - very different mood from your song of tge same name!

Good to hear from you Clio. I hope FAWM 9 is both productive and fun.

You are too nice! Thank you for your comments. 🩷

Clio, thanks much for the comment on my song: Soft Angles. I appreciate it.

Thanks for your comment on Murderer and Thief. I appreciate it :)

Thank you so much for your comment on Drinking Up the Purple Rain. I have been working thru the challenges in Song-Writing Without Boundaries by Pat Pattison and maybe it’s paying off. Just did several chapters on rhyming couplets.

If I have it my way, I will! But I have been through a lot lately. That might actually inspire me. Nice start Clio. Love how the synth comes in.

Thank you! Happy FAWM to you too!

Oh, wait--I just played the song by clicking on the speaker above. They've changed the site and you couldn't do that before. When you clicked on the song it took you to your page. My mistake.

In response to your reply--no, I DON'T see the lyrics underneath the song. Not as it shows up here on the FAWM site anyway.

Thanks for your comment on my T-Shirt I have for sale. Do you think the price is fair on the shirt? IIRC I make a total of 7$ at the price it’s at.

Understood on the tight schedule regarding collaboration BTW.

Thank you SO MUCH for the kind words. It really means a lot 😀

Like the combination of ambience--especially the vocal--AND the "kind of" driving synth. You should post the lyrics! (I like to follow along). Nice job!

Thank you so much for the comment that you made on my lyrics only (at present) song, Embodiment. I like the idea that you posed; using two different arrangements / orchestras, to pan and represent the divine embodied in flesh.

I see you holding a violin in your photo; perhaps we could collaborate on this? What if in similar fashion to Spark, with acoustic instruments and voice representing the flesh, and then burbling synth eventually infiltrating and inhabiting the acoustic, earthly sound?

Not panning but a slow mix through the song until it is glorious light of synths and delay and reverb?

Hello clioem, thanks for thinking of me. I’m already excited to be onboard your FAWM spaceship journey.

My specialty is improvised lyrical acapella, which makes it super easy to crank out songs. 😀 Basically, I've practiced a skill that makes it easy to be super fast.

Thank you so much Clio, I'm glad you liked my song <3

Looking forward to my 2023 sounds, eh? I wasn't sure if I had any, but now that it's actually February... perhaps I could spare a few sounds. we'll see :P
always happy to be remembered, regardless <3

why thankyou 😀

thank you thank you for the listen and comment Much Appreciated!!

Thanks for your feedback on Afterglow of Dreams

Hi Clio! Thanks for taking an interest in Eon of the Green :) So cool! And congratulations on your first song for FAWM2023 really nice and spooky vibe I’m looking forward to hearing more

Hi, Clio! I guess I'm *kinda* back? In the sense that I'm here and I'll try to do some stuff but probably won't be able to do much. But it's also good to see you!! Happy FAWM!!

And a hello and happy FAWM to you too 😀

I would like to thank you very much for your kind words on "The books about love always lack the last pages"!

I totally get that. Mine is deep in the basement, surrounded by moving blankets and out neighbors are quite a distance. The only people that have to put up with me are those IN my house, haha. The dog doesn't seem to mind, actually, which was shocking. She just looks in, says NOPE and goes upstairs to sleep. ;)

Thank you, I'm following you too:)

Thanks for listening! Yeah, acoustic drum kit and acoustic me playing it. ;)

Thank you! And have a wonderful FAWM yourself!

Hey Clio! Looking forward to the new songs!

Hiya Clio! Happy FAWMing!!!

Clio! Hello, hello, helloooo! I like your concept and so here’s to an awesome FAWM and to what the muse inspires! Let’s get it!

Have a good FAWM, wherever your wanderings take you.

Hi sweet amazing human. I watched a performance of yours during FAWMstock and it was so good. I know there are others who have passed, but I can confirm @standup and @dzdandconfused (or something like that) are no longer with us. I don't think tags are working, which is super valid. There is word on the forums too about the folks we've lost as well. I am so glad you're here! Happy FAWM! <3

Hi Clio! Great to see you back at FAWM!

Good luck this year! Hope your music endeavors all bear fruit!

Thank you Clio, you too.

Clio! I'm looking forward to what you come up with this FAWM :)

Yay! Glad you are back for another go around!

Good morning! I'm glad to see you back. Here's to another day of creativity and confidence.

Thank you for your kind words! I'm so sorry you've had those losses too. What a gut punch both can be.

I AM super excited to be FAWMing this year.
Lots of sad, but also LOTS of joy and happiness too.

Thanks for saying hello! Hope you have the greatest FAWM

Synthpop, piano, indie or whatever, I look forward to hearing your songs again this FAWM!

Hey! Thank you! Hope you have a great FAWM!

Welcome back, fellow Niner! I remember your early sci fi series, and am looking forward to what you’ll whip up this month.

Happy FAWM Clio! The anticipation Is almost too much!

Thank you, you too!!!

Happy FAWM to you too!

Happy FAWM, Clio!

Hi Clio, thanks for the follow! I look forward to hearing your synthpop!!! Happy FAWMing!
