Hey, this is really great Mario.
Boy, I'm glad you're back, in more ways than one, too.
I like the vibe you got going through the song. A great jazz fusion funk feel. Nice one. Thanx VT. That vibe is all BiaB. All I'm doing is jamming along to it.

Hello Mario,
VERY interesting and ear-catching. Love your guitar playing an awful lot. Had a lot of pleasure listening to this one. A really good job!
Take care,
Stefan Thanx Stefan. This old arthritic fingered hacker appreciates it.

Yeah! This is great, Mario! Love the track, great groove and killer bassline.
But most of all I love your guitar playing! Great chops. Good to see you back! Thanx Dave. That groove and bass line is all BiaB as all I did was to pick the sounds.

Mario,
Love that bass! Cool guitar. Horn stabs are neat.
Glad you found time to give us another....
fj Thanx Floyd. That bass is straight from BiaB. The horn stabs are from a free bee that I just picked up. I'm glad you like it.

Man, production wise you used a little bit of a lot! Makes my head spin thinking about how to produce something like this.
Love that funky bass and your guitar is superb.
And a great mix also.
Welcome back,
J&B
Thanx J&B. If I can do this so can you, it ain't that hard.

Good to have you back, Mario! I really like the track... it is funky and engaging! Don't react to those people who wants to "help" you go viral (in the comments on SoundCloud) - they are scammers... if people like your music it will go viral by itself! Will Thanx Will. I know all about those scammers. I gave up being a big rock star many years ago. Now I'm happy just to be breathing!

Very good funk for a comeback song Chording is warm-hearted. Nice guitar playing and the dialog between piano and brass is very enjoyable. Nice mix also, especially the brass has magical smooth sound. Janne Thanx Janne. That brass is a free bee that I just picked up. It has only one sound with just a few modifiers but it does an excellent job on stabs IMHO.
