Liner Notes

ZC: It has become an amazing tradition to get together in person with my brother to explore FAWM ideas and create music together. This past weekend was amazing and it is incredible to me how ideas can start one way and then just fly off to regions that neither of us expected. This is a great example, which started with a fantastic acoustic guitar idea Rob played. We figured out a structure and then just started experimenting. So. Much. Fun. I love the final result but even more fun was the journey we took together to get here. The weekend is over, but the music will live on. :)

GC: I was doing something with a partial capo and John mentioned using it on the 4th fret, which I hadn’t done before—so I tried a few things and the acoustic part of this song just happened. We just worked on it, adding a bunch of parts to get it to sound the way we wanted it to, and that was that! We do bounce ideas off of each other really well and it’s fun to see how the songs just come together and we’re both happy with them. Another great brother weekend FAWM collab in the books!

Guatecoop: acoustic guitar (partial on 4th fret), Minilogue (x4), drums, cabasa
ZeCoop: bass guitar, electric guitar (with atmospheric overtones), maraca, cajon

I love that you can get together with family for FAWMing, there is something about it, just like FAWM Over or FAWM stock too. I was so happy when my duo partner joined, so we do at least one song in person and it is always one that makes it to our CD, so, I get it. This is beautiful. Love this production and the builds and transitions. A work of love and art!! Great collab!!

I really like how the acoustic guitar line sounds like it's going to end but then gives you more. The layering of different sounds works really well here. Lovely.

This is very nicely recorded. The atmospheric guitar makes it sound huge and open. This is just a very nice listening experience. Bravo

Thanks for the download. It sounds a lot better than my clumsy recording onto my iPhone! 😀

I like the kind of brothers you are. I can imagine the fun you have creating music together. Can you make this track downloadable?

I was waiting for this, the Coop Bros having a jam, cause Zecoop mentioned it to me on a Zoom call a while. Well this didn't disappoint. Love the wonderful layer of guitars, synth etc. I do hear a 12 string in there ringing away and it created a great bed for the bass and synth. I love the feel of an acoustic drum kit...it has that organic sound that is very very hard to re-create with midi files. As an idea...hummm I hear an airy distance guitar in the background and vocals. Killer stuff you guys.

Lovely, lovely song--wish my brother was a fellow musician, but he's not, and gave up playing trombone in band around 4th grade. 😉

Terrific collaboration, guys! ❤️

I think the fun and enjoyment you had flows through the veins of this! It is a very atmospheric song! Love the change just before the 2 minute mark. Nice one guys!

That is truly gorgeous. What a great collab, and even better that y'all got together to make this happen. Those synths add some nice atmospheric layers to the guitar. Love the guitar, by the way. Nice, thick bass to keep the low end beefy. Great job guys.

Love the space in this. Everything has its place and you can hear everything. I can imagine what it would sound like with a vocal. I’m envious of you getting to make music with your brother. I’m an only child.
