Sik Style - Alice In Chains - SikStyle1

Beautiful and haunting rendition of one of my favorite AIC songs. Brilliant vox man, you did justice to a masterpiece. Stellar performance. Faved

And so I return to this rather nice, chillout version of AIC's excellent song Nutshell.

"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee chase misprinted lies"

It just goes to show that any good piece of music can be rearranged into a different style. Yet you retain the same vibe as the original, which is cool.

Criticism: just as the vocal enters at 1:03 I can hear the opening of the mouth (your mouth?) You could remove that with a little volume fade, just to make things smoother. Same thing at 2:03 and worse at 2:08. Maybe you need to use a pop shield to stop the plosives being recorded.

Minor criticism: the final piano playing after the vocal has stopped could perhaps work better. Maybe you could bring in a gentle beat (eg brush snare and pedal hat) or some strings or something. Just to make it stand out from the rest of the song. People will disagree with me but I know it could work really well.

My challenge to you is to make a piano-based version of Rotten Apple, which is an even better piece of music and from the same album/EP (track 1).

Congrats again on this excellent effort.

WOW I am loving this so much :)

nice man :)

Excellent piano work, and the vocal style works absolutely perfectly for this track. It's brilliant.

Yo.

I'm a massive AIC fan and was very pleasantly surprised by this rather good cover of their classic song.

I'm in a rush now but will look forward to reviewing it in detail later.

I thought it was just going to be a pure piano instrumental so was surprised when the vocals entered.

Great stuff!

Oh man...you made it...pure brilliance...fantastic piece of music here...

handshake, Danke

Wow, I really like the cover of this song. Well captured dude, similar field and its cool to hear how others attack this kind of song. Good song! Ty for sharing, nice piano work here, vocals were cool too! Keep going!
