Plainly and simply gorgeous! I can't believe how thoroughly you've reworked the arrangement... the percussion's crisp and still really driving, the vocal washes are heavenly, the guitar's just present enough for a real edge, yet not overwhelming...
As a whole, there's a lot of consistency here, that seemed sketchy in the first draft... a major accomplishment! About the only thing I'd nitpick on here, is the percussion fill at 1:21 seems a little odd... but that's like, 1/2 of a second in the song... All things considered, another rich adventure... and a great piece of writing!

Holy shit, I dropped out of my chair. Everything you did in this is top notch. Unbelievably great bass lines and one of the best singing male performances at this site. Progressive ambient trip hop and some other genres mixed masterfully. I have nothing bad to say about this song, this is that great.

damn man, very impressive. i've said it before your voice is so incredible. the production of this is awesome, all the riffs and melodies compliment each other so well. One thing that stands clear in this piece is that u really know what you're doing..
I must admit, i'm not the greatest fan of old skool synths and basses etc anymore but u really did an awesome job with this.
I'd love to hear you do a piece with strings... sorta craig armstrong style.

I'm so glad that you left some comments on my page, otherwise I might not have found your music. This song is just great, wonderful production. The musicianship and vocals are absolutely top notch. My only critique would be that maybe the bass line is mixed just a little hot and it tends to bury some of the other instrumentation here and there. This is only a personal taste matter though, a lot of people just love heavy bass in a mix, and once again, you have a real composition and production talent to go along with phenomenal vocals. Great Job, Respect, Justin Mathias

I like this version, too. You have one of the best voices on here for sure, and some amazing arrangements. Most of all, you have the uncanny ability to keep a song moving, while constantly changing the dynamics and tone.

This kinda reminds me of something Sting would do about 5 years ago..That is good 
I like your voice a lot...the production is solid throughout...
I don't think I fell out of my chair...lol...but it was very good...

Everything moves so deliberately, it's much more powerful than any mood I could possibly be in right now.
HOLY BEJEESUS, the first time you say "no more", you sounded exactly like Jeff Buckley, oh my god!!!! I'm all twitchy, I can't believe you made that sound!
wow, you should start getting this stuff distributed, more people need to hear this, stay featured here forever!

That was fantastic. I like how you change the general timbre in your voice during different sections of this piece. The production was outstanding as well. I'm definitely gonna check out some more of your stuff.

Beautiful, the vocals....
My only gripe is the drums, they sound extremely mechanical, which detracts from the piece I think.
The ending's perfect.

Outstanding work here, you have so much to listen to, i've just recently found Wihemina Murry's Revenge, and then I find other excellent artists, but these particular vocals on this song are great

Great production on this one and really interesting choice of instruments and sounds. The vocals have a good ‘Classic Rock’ feel to them. I think that my favourite parts of this are the imaginative use of production and instrumentalism, there’s certainly no predictability in your music here.

Usually I don't listen to alternative much, but after listening to "less" I thought I give this one a try ...
I am very impressed ... haunting and beautiful at the same time ... drifting to a caress ... lovely experience ... very well done

This is the kind of song that I can't even wrap my head around. How you put all this together, how it works so brilliantly. The vocals are unbelievable, honestly. You've got a little bit of Bowie in some of the deeper parts. Your high notes I couldn't mistake for anyone except you, I don't really think I've ever heard anyone who does what you do vocally.
Brilliant.

The add of the effects was a nice thing to do. It kind of opens the sound into a bigger scala. The difference with your previous version is that there's much less tranquility in this track. Probably because the effects took a bit away the "intimate feeling". Though on this track, the instrumentation comes out a bit more, the voice is less dominating. I hear that the woodblock sound has been turned up GREAT !! As for the rest, I'm keeping my opinion as in the first version Killer track!
