Good work.
Clever usage of the skills of our talented musicians. Well done.
I like a lot this vocal part: clean, with some "body" in the lower tones, very well done.
Nothing to say, just that I liked it.
Ciao, Domenico

PS: the final fadeout could be improved, a little softer on the last seconds (make it last 10 seconds longer)

Hi mate, what a great track, a change of direction for yourself?? A great result from the collab and all involved. Its well mixed and produced and a pleasure on the ears!! Well done to you all.

To be honest when the drums kicked in, I wish they didn't. The singing and simple background sold the song. Whoever sang on this track sounds very unique, in a good way. That's just my opinion. I'm going to listen to more of your tracks.

I like this track and the feel of it. Reminds me of some mid 90's bands that used the DnB beats over a mellow tune as well (can't think of the names right now). Juest read a comment on panning of the vocals. I think that's a great idea.

I do have one addition though. Did I miss a bass here? If not, then it might be a good idea to put it somewhat louder. I do miss it a bit. And I would leaave out the last two repeats of the vocal to be honest. Let it just end with a bang :-).

But great track all in all.

I'll let you know when I have an answer to your question.

Best, Doc

This may just be my opinion, but peace is not attainable. And wow ironic, people are yelling outside my apartment complex right now. But no, I just think this because the world isn't ready for that right now. There can be no good without the bad. Even when it gets to a point where it's almost entirely good, there will still be bad. But I don't want to talk your ears off with my opinions, this is a great track. Thought provoking like others said. Thumbs up. Peace

Gramo

very sweet sound. pleasure to listen to. i like the phrasing of the vocalist - sweet - then at the end a few hard words. the way you bring the groove a little hotter, a little cooler throughout maintains nice interest. peace!

nice song :)
Faved for sure

Hi M

Great track and really nicely produced. Lovely voice and your arrangement and music support it very well indeed. Great job.

Love the melodies. Easy listening track with some soul. I look forward to your tunes Mosaic. I never know what to expect (which is part of the fun) and I've enjoyed them all so far.

On the technical side, I would of liked to hear the drums a little more up front. Especially the snare. A nice crisp snare sounds great in pop songs like this. And the bass seems a little low too. This could of been exactly how you wanted them to sit in the mix. That's fine too. Just my preference if I was mixing it.

Excellent work from all you guys!

I liked it from the start to the ending. The vocals mixing with the relaxing guitar sounding makes for a great listening experience. I also love the piano-ish sound in the background. Great collab work! This track is great for people who just want to chill and relax.

Thanks for the listen and keep up the great work!

Hey Esti....a different style for you and a very cool tune indeed!..all the elements are sitting beautifully in the mix especially the vocals,up front where they should be but not too distanced from the music....Pop songs in my opinion are some of the hardest things to get right (not that I have any experience in producing them!lol)and maintain a balance between their genre brief of 'popular' and lyrical 'song'..this one scores big points in all departments and even more for being a successful collaboration...look out hit parade! cheers Dave

Great song...
Needs a little " TLC " though...And I know you can do it....
The Acoustic Guitar is just outside it's true dynamic range, so it interferes
with the melody...Instead of flow you've got a fight, if you get my drift...
Simple Remedy: Pull the 2 tracks back and look at her voice like it's her body
you want to slide those guitars right up under her Butt....
Meaning no disrespect HERE.... That way she is sitting on top of them, you
will still have that big sound that you're looking for but her voice would shine
the way it should...And the mix would not have a cloud over it...
This song has a lot of potential don't want to jerk it around...

Peace....TG.

Hey friend, thank you so much for getting me involved with this awesome collab! (and thank you for encouraging me to tune up my bass and plug in for a while!) It's really pretty much the first real pop song that I've worked on, aside from maybe a remix, and I'm proud of the results of the collab! My wife isn't into it, but then she's one of the least pop people I've met ha ha. I personally really like it! You did a great job mixing the different elements and retaining a dynamic popular style sound and feel. Excellent first collab! Fave!

Is this the same song you sent me? Wow, what a difference, like it a lot. My feedback probably was not very good, still not over my cold. But what Spiv and Bear have done to assist you here is pretty cool, gives the song a whole new depth and dimension that the original lacked but I never realized it until I heard this version(if that makes any sense).

Had to give this a few listens. Liked the reversed cymbals, seems to work as a nice effect. The vocals are sweet, she has a nice voice and the lyrics are cool. And of course the acoustic guitar is my favorite part!!

Your first collab is certainly a success my friend, a great track for sure, one of my favs by you(and spiv and bear).

Cheers! Hope all is well my friend!

Wayne

Really sweet collaboration...thumbs up for all involved..:)

Compliments______orlando

Easy listening track with much excellence...Barry's guitar is so soft but fat and the lead vocs harmony pushes the whole number...summer hit single...

Brilliant collab

Respect, Danke

The vocal is delicate but haunting on the track, it is undoubtingly rememberable....first class production on the mix....actually high.class collaboration....sweet!

Tune D

This is just a fun listening tune for the summer. Nice work. Great talent you have lined up for this one. Catchy hook. Nice vocals. I like the reverse cymbals (Static Nomad most likely won't) You need a nice solo (g-tar or synth for this one. If you send me the stems I might just be able to work on one for you ehh? Nice work mate.
Steve

Hey mate, cool track! Good beat but still nice and chilled out! The flute and rhodes really help with this! I enjoyed listening to this a lot so well done on your second attempt at this tough genre! :)

Definitely a thought provoking track. Looking up at the stars and running that question through your head keeps you thinking. Keep em comin.

Ahh my friend, you have added Trance sensibilities to Drum and bass rawish sounds. good mix. I agree with Val d's assessment of the vox. A cool pan would do wonders. You can get lost in this song (in a good way) good work mucho props from this corner of the web

I do like this. It's a pretty mellow track. I suppose in going with the theme, "contemplative" would be a better term.
It's quite fluid within itself. The production quality is very clean. Nothing drowns out anything else.
I think the only suggestion I would have is to do some dynamic panning / automation on the vocals. With that sample being the only one, it's kind of the star of the show. Give it a bigger role. Maybe play with the tail of the delay. Move it around within the track a little. Weave it in and out of the pads. As it is, it's alright, but it gets to be a little repetitive, and has potential to be much more.
Check out FreeRadical's "Bad Boy Sound." It's a completely different beast than this, but the vocals in it are a perfect example of vocal automation within the track.

That aside, I dig the mellow nature of this, and could listen to a complete album full of tracks just like it.
Keep up the D&B trials, man. They're sounding good.
Take care.

Sounding very smooth - how on Earth do you create that
smoothness?

Also loving the subbtle piano and all the other little sounds in the background.

Good track. I have not much to add to what the others already wrote: I like the contrast and the tension deriving from it.
It keeps the song interesting.
Very well done.
Ciao, Domenico

I dig it, i was able to keep motivated with a positive vibe with this one, and when that happens the household women think im all manly and charming so then i get goodies n stuff lol, thanx for sharing!
