Ok I'm just an individual who make music to keep me sane and I came up with this song a few years ago and finally got it out of my head and into the iPad and then on soundcloud. I don't have all the surf gear to Make it sound surf spec but I sure would like some feedback on it...I kinda wish I could get a real surf band to play it and record it, if it's deemed worthy of course.
I call it "Umi Wo Koete" which translated from Japanese is Across The Ocean.
I borrowed an electric telecaster deluxe with vintage jazz master pups and used a simulated amp from GarageBand called "Surf" haha...

Welcome!
I've listened to"Umi Wo Koete"about 4 times. It's a great tune. I am a sucker for long, lyrical lines that are changed or embellished throughout the song. Plus,it's got a great hook. I found myself humming it while barbecuing tonight. Thumbs up
