This is a very powerful song and performance! Your voice is always a pleasure to listen to! I also really like the synth effects near the end of the song, very old school! My one difficulty with this track is regarding the sections where there are two vocal lines, for example starting right around 2:00. I find the noise floor to be way too high in those sections. It doesn't ruin the song or anything, but it is very noticeable. The change in key late in the track is very nice and effective! Overall a wonderful job!

Hi Carole,
Wonderful song.
I'll keep it short:

- catchy chorus. Liked a lot.

- good job with the "subtle" backing vocals.

- tone change is always a good weapon when it's used well.
you did it. good! starting from 3:02 the song "takes off" for a second flight.

- example of clipping at 0:46, 1:03, 1:14 ... (it's nothing serious, it takes nothing away from the beauty of this song)

- I am not sure this song could do with a faster pace: I would not augment the BPM. But you know, I am a romantic italian dude and I like slow songs :-)

Thanks again for this gem Carole.
Ciao, Domenico

I like songs that have a lot of space and allow the vocals to shine through like this one does. You have one of the most beautiful voices on the loop, very professional. I like that modulation change around 3:00, very nice. Interesting effects and sounds you used. Very beautiful track Carole!

Hi Wayne :)

You're right, leaving some space for vocals to "breathe" and the music to blossom out is highly important, and I confess I was not really aware of that before my sweetheart told me that I sang too much, lol .
I'm very happy you enjoyed this, Wayne and I thank you warmly for your so gentle comment .

Well I put a lot of heart in it but I'm not sure we can call it a piece of work as I'm a second-rate musician, unfortunately .
I'm very glad you liked what you heard, Scott .
Thx a lot for your positive words :D

Tres tres belle ;) Tu as un voix du ciel ;)
Don't speak fluent French though haha but you really made something I liked. Not sure how this combines dubstep though ;d Anyways thanks for sharing this with us and goodluck with other musical projects

janis71 replied 19th Nov 2013 - 12 years ago
I used dubstep percs, but you're right, this doesn't sound like pure dub .

Aw ... thx a lot for these words in my native tongue, Johnnyproducing :D
I do appreciate them :)

Thx for your warm comment and good wishes . I wish you the same with a big smile .

I'm in the mood for r'n'b too this moment so I guess you'll soon hear from me, Ed ... :D
Isn't it wonderful to read such warm and encouraging words from one of the best musicians here ?! I'm so lucky and happy !
But don't be too good to me, Ed, I might take your words for granted and really think I can win "France's got talent", hehehe ( see my answer to Chris ) .
Thanks a lot my dear friend and do take care,
kisses

Gee Chris !! I'm so happy to read from you and as always, you drew a big smile on my face with your warm and friendly words.
Oh ... "feathers" ... I do like the metaphor as softness and tenderness were precisely what I wanted to express .
Hope you're fine my sweet friend and I'm sending you a hearty hug .
Kisses :D

I have never been disappointed with a track of yours! This is great as well. The vocals clip a bit early on but they are easily overlooked. Thank you for the good vibes.

Bravoooo Carole m what a good U have recognized abouT better interval for accompaniment of those sitar in intro .
and yes , this level of your voice is what I love that veryvery much . Carole after 2':47'' up to modulation , I think U can add a guitar too *rhthm and power or solo anyone).
also this manner in which U change 1.5 or 2 or 3 semitones pitch of matetial to gain a modulation can sound better like thaT by adding a new sound colour like guitar or SaX from that part.in nthe end hey ! what situation it is ? not download not email to me !! I want iT whenever this singer is singing .should I start chelenging U in mail for 4 days and 40 hours to recceive this 4minutes and 40seconds or like a good girl U'll send it by yourself withouT war & bleeding ?hahahaha....oh oh !by the way this beautifull intro of yours made me remember I was supposed to send U an ethnic trial ,oh sorry I had forgot ...right now I'll send.
take care dear Carole.best wishes.___B

Beware beware, Sir ! Remember I told you I'm a "kick"-boxing champion !! ( mmuah ha ha ha !! ) . So think twice, before talking about fighting with me, deary, lol :D

This said, I first thank you for your supportive and advising words, Behnam . You're right about enriching this with a guitar solo or a sax .

So from now on, you will have to play on all my tracks, that's settled ! haha ...
I'm very happy you enjoyed this thingy and stopped by to say it !

Yep, you indeed forgot to send me those ethnic pieces of yours . This deserves a little flick .
"Flick" .
Done .
Haha !

Enough silly talk ... Thx Behnam . 'Goes straight to my
heart .
Take care, deary,

Bonjour Carole ....

Tu m'avais caché ça, c'est moi "ton bien aimé" Hahaha!
Un style musical, qui te convient parfaitement aussi. C'est cool avec changement de ton .... qui redonne comme dirait l'autre, un regain d'intérêt. Tu as suivi une bonne école.
Bon j'arrête le délire, et un grand bravo pour cet instant musical.

Dan

janis71 replied 10th Nov 2013 - 12 years ago
Pour le changement de ton, je suis allée à bonne école .... ;)
Ton avis compte beaucoup pour moi, Dan, et je suis heureuse que tu te sois arrêté ici et que tu aies apprécié l'écoute .
Avec un peu de recul ( aarrgghh ), j'aurais peut-être pu augmenter le bpm pour que ça soit un tantinet plus énergique, non ?
Je rêve de pouvoir composer des merveilles comme tu le fais, mais ...
Je suis déjà très chanceuse que tu fasses appel à moi et j'espère que nous continuerons l'aventure .
Merci pour ton com souriant et espiègle,
Gros bisous,
Carole

ps : J'avance ... 10 pages de tapées, hier :D

Description : Remaster and rework of older track that just didn't feel quite finished. It was lacking guitar work, and a better arrangement. I think it's in a good spot. I never did write lyrics for this, the vocal samples just seemed to fill it out pretty decently.

Description : Underground sample-based hip hop with overdriven low-end, broken-beat swing, sparse funky piano chops and heavy turntablism. Beat gaps and sudden mutes create hard-hitting drops, with a raw, dusty, low-frequency sound.

Description : Sorry to bombard with the same track. Here's the final version of the track I made using an Acapella from Looperman by JakeBuzzard. Now remasterd and with sub added plus scratches and more independent equalisation on drums / doubling up on a few instruments. I've also increased the volume on the samples used and the main vocals - as mentioned before, I'm deaf in 1 ear so struggle to get a good stereo mix, honest feedback is welcomed please
