Hey all,

Heres a re vamp of an old song I wrote in 1999. It started the whole cloud9 mission idea but sadly my original attempt at playing this song was lost when my comp crashed. I shelfed it for ages but now here it is, 'Cloud9'

Listen in Real Audio (full length)

Download in mp3 (clip)

God bless

Lewis

BigThing said:

thanx man, all fixed

Like it dude, very uplifting melody - just what I need to get through today at work!

The bass is grooving the way I like it. I love the piano then guitar solo - oh man, then that damn breakdown after! (yay I'm listening to it real time as I type) Ouch, that vocal sample came outta no where! (?)

Unfortunately I haven't listened to the original so I can't compare, but this has a nice order about it.

Thanx mate, Ive been thinkin about editing that breakdown out till you said that

Recognise the vocal??

Unfortunatly you aint the only one who never got to hear the original, I aint heard it in a while too . Teach me to back up my files I guess but Im way more pleased with this version than the original, maybe it wernt such a bad thing


God bless

Lewis

Nah sorry, tell me though and I'll undoubtedly 'doh!' myself!

MaggotBrain said:

see if anyone guesses

only maggotbrain??

Could it be...

I said "What the fuck business is it of yours?
I'm payin' 4 these fuckin' potatoes
"All U think about is music?"
I'll do what the fuck I wanna do with'em!
Now bring me a fuckin' finger bowl!"
"I'm leavin' your NBA no ballin' ass?"

yeah man, thats the one

anymore feedback folks???

cloud9mission said:

I'm suprised for the lack of feedback mate... the second (erm) 'song' I posted hasn't received anything, and I assumed it was because it's so absolutely dire (I'm gonna redo it anyhow), but (as ever!) your's is top notch so maybe people are just too busy...oh eayh, I'm at work, better go

Co-sign on the feedback! ppl seem 2 B too busy or over at NFO.

I remember this track, cool revamp!

'dre

I like it, Cloud! Too bad I can't compare it to the original. I think some vocals would turn this one into a really nice song.

Do you play everything by yourself?

I certainly do but Im vocally challenged as they say

DreZone said:

cheers dre!

nice as usual Lewis,it seems similar in structure as "Make Love Not War".

talmuzic said:

thanx man

Great vibe Lewis, wouldn't expect anything less.

Thanks for sharing.

This is groovy as usual, Lewis! I really like it. The stuff you have been doing lately has been real funky, and I dig it lots!


Peace,
JD

Oh geeze, that mp3 clip is tooo short! Don't know why I can't get this real audio file to play.
I downloaded Dre's just fine.


It says "RealMedia File Format: Invalid Data Header in file "cloud9.rm". The file is unreadable."



Well... what I heard sounds cool. Very early Prince, kind of in the vibe of Just As Long As We're Together.

Hey Lewis, I would really like to have a copy of "Scenic Route". Do you have one? Can you send one to me through the NFO mail? That song is one of my favorites of any song I have heard. It sticks with me.

Peace,
JD

Cheers mate

Cheers jason, glad to see people picking up on the new vibe

VinaBlue said:

the realaudio file was created with the latest real producer software so I think you might need the latest player to play them

Flashpointe said:

I'll set you up a Cloud9 Mission Digital Music Network password free & ya can download every track Ive ever recorded

cloud9mission said:

I've downloaded the latest FREE player. When I go for help it just tells me about buying the premium player. Oh well.

VinaBlue said:

Its a very crafty site man, I was trying to download the free one on my uncle's PC & everywhere you clicked took you to the one you gotta pay for. The free one your after is called the 'basic player' if you click on those links (and remember they will probably be smaller than the buy it links) it should take you to the version you want. When you eventually download the program that installs the software, make sure you click 'custom installation' as this gives you the spyware & adware free option

EDIT: heres a direct link http://forms.real.com/rea...nonrdx=yes

Thanks for the tips man. I will d/l it asap!

Oh and by the way, everytime you CLOSE that lame-o app, it pops up a "you SURE you dont wanna BUY this?"

RealMedia is a pain.
