"PsuedoProg." Marvelous!

Moody chord changes? Check. Nice easy groove? Check. 60's-inspired plectrum style electric bass? Check. Reverb-swimmy guitar? Check. Tremolo'd space organ? Check. Nice intertwining acoustic lines? Check. Nice imaging and use of effects too.

I'd beef the drums up a little in the mix. Not much else. Very nice. Seems like the happy ending music to "Oceans 75." It's always nice when a caper comes together, especially when you can stick it to the Man at the same time. Leaves a bit of mystery regarding the future though (you never know when your Pretty Woman might give you a code word and you have to jet)...

Thanks!
Maybe i will make a new mix, changing a few things.
As for now, the drums are basically the raw recorded stereo track ( i submixed a few mics on the way in), no EQ or effects during mixing, except for a really minimal amount of reverb send. It's barely there.
What's "Oceans 75"? :E
