I would Love Your Opinions On Some Original Music

[masque]

hello friends!

it's obvious we all love music and since we love styx, good music! with that said, it would be a great honor to me if you guys would take a few minutes and check out some original music I have made in recent months on my soundcloud page link below. I am a working stiff paying a mortgage so I certainly dont consider myself any kind of pro....I just love music in general and I love trying to make music to the best of my ability. I've got NOTHING for sale and I am not trying to make any money.....I would just love for some people that like alot of the same music I do to check out some of what I have done and give me some honest feedback. I would certainly appreciate it!

some of the songs that may have a bit more of a styx-ish flavor would be tunes like "alone", "what I want", "masters of the drama", "romeo", "simple simon" and "i will do"......and "no parole" is a straight blues rock song but I absolutely lifted the intro harmonies to "shooz" for the lead in for bridge of my song as a tribute kind of thing. pretty much everything is straight forward guitar oriented rock with some keyboards mixed in on a regular basis.

Pretty solid work.Listened to 5 songs,and liked No Parole and Sweet Marie (I think it was called) the best.
Wish I could play like that.Good luck.

Very good! Are you doing all instruments and vocals?

thanks guys! I appreciate the kind words and for taking the time to listen. Yes, I do all of the vocals and about 95% of all the instruments. I have a couple of buddies that occasionally will play a keyboard track or do a guitar solo....otherwise, it's all me. All songs written by me as well. Drums are handled by a software program.....I create and plan the drum tracks but dont physically play them, everything else is actually performed.
