Description : Hey guys,
I've been working on this song for awhile now. I LOVE the lyrics and the main melody, but the rest of the song is just not taking the direction I want it to. I'm stuck and I don't know what to do! "/ It's missing something, has no life. I'm not sure what it's missing and i'm getting so frustrated. I know it needs to mastered and such but that's not the problem. Please tell me what it's missing or what I should change to give it that extra umph! If I can't figure it out maybe i'll just let you guys have the acapella and make something outta it "/ just don't want this song to go to waste, so any ideas, thoughts, comments, are welcome! :D

UPDATE: The acapella is now up for grabs on here, I've given up on this project. I wanna hear what you do with it please! :)

Hey Stephanie!

I love your voice and the beat. I think you could add a few more beats that would give it more of a club feel. I think some back-up singers in some parts will help the track as well. Try adding some sound FXs in a some areas, it doesn't have to be much. What do you think?

Keep it up, my friend.

I did a slight adjustment on your track. It is good. You may need to add some additional instrumental support. The beat is repetitive which could explain the lack of lift. Send me an email address and I can send you the mix. It's got more bass, but there is also some minor vocal audio clips. I'll send what I was able to muster in twenty minutes.

Cheers :)

Hi StephanieKay,

I like the vocals and melody, but it just needs some bottom end....bass and a kick drum.

I have used your accapella "top secret" in a track I produced called....you guessed it...."Top Secret". That might give you an idea for some bottom end sounds. I am happy to help with the acapella or the track if you send me a copy.

This does have potential, so don't be too quick to throw in the towel.

the thing that is missing is some house snares and some hard low notes of a bass line...it would sound extremely beter than

is the other way around actually this song needs "bridges" that can connect the choruses , this song idea is just a series of choruses perfect for a catchy dance tune but if you want to build a pop tune you need to put some extra lyrics to connect your choruses.

First of all the vocals are great..I think the drums should've come in with your voice, along with a bassline. Your right about it sounding like it has no life, I'm trying to figure out why! haha. I think the main beat has to be changed up when the chorus comes in. I might grab your pella and work on it!

I love your voice, but the melody can use a bit of work. I 'd like to take your acapella and see what I can make out of it

I would say that u need to arrange the beat a bit better, drop that arppregiated synth now and again, and that would give ur melody more life, plus a good mix would help out with the overall life...... if u cant figure it out, i would def like to give ur acapella a go

yeah I think i'm just gonna be done with this song, and start over new. I think I'll put the acapella up for adoption "/

the vocals are nice but i would say get a more driving bass or some synth pads going to fill it out. Also it sounds a bit discordant at points. also up the bass on your kick a bit more! nice track though

Def needs a chorus. Sounds like the track is building and building. I was waiting for the chorus to come in. Needs a chorus for sure and mabey some sort of breakdown.

the chorus is supposed to be the part that goes "oh were going out tonight, you got me feeling right, etc." guess it's not obvious "/ I'm just about ready to throw in the towel on this one

Good song, pretty vocals :)
I could maybe suggest adding some kind of strings in the middle of the song, to give it that extra bulkiness to support the vocals, sounds really good though

Description : I'm not sure who the acapella is from, I found it in a random folder in my sample library. So I wrote all the music and created the arrangement with the vocal as the center piece, and did some minor chopping where it was necessary. Enjoy.

Something waaaaaaay different. LOL.
Ok, so my friend and I were drinking few weeks ago and we came to idea, as he have 3 small children, to make song for children (nursery rhymes). It was really fun to do and a lot of effort, expecially with vocals. Maybe we will make more in future.
Song is in Croatian, English translation in lyrics.
Love and peace.
