This settles it for me!

I’m lucky to have a couple different versions of my “Something About You” song in development. It started out as an acoustic demo and was recently mixed into sort of a music box version.

This latest version below is sort of a Parisian mix, featuring Lonnie Wilson on upright bass and Rick Berls on drums and a French musette.

Which version do you like best?

Lately I’ve been really enjoying working with other musicians over at kompoz.com, revisiting some of my earlier songs to see if I could get them from rough demos to sounding like polished tracks.

My latest project is “Something About You” which now has piano and cello parts by Peter Rand from the UK. I think it’s so cool that I can upload my recording and then someone from halfway around the world gets to add their own accompaniment to it.

The original version I recorded a year ago is linked right here (click!), and below is the new stereo mix. More parts may get added and more mixes may be forthcoming, but is where it is right now.

I’d like to know what you think. Is this an improvement over the original?

I found some collaborators over at kompoz.com who helped turn my songs “Miss Mischief” and “Slow Down” into finished recordings.

I had recorded the “Miss Mischief” demo with just my vocals and ukulele back in October of last year. This new version features additional harmony vocals and upright bass by Lonnie Wilson, with piano and drums by Rick Berls. Rick also did the final mixdown.

The demo of “Slow Down” was recorded in June of last year, again with just uke strumming and singing. Lonnie added bass, Nick Maynard added a guitar intro, and Rick added drums and final mastering.

I’m pretty happy with the sound!
