Bonjour, Nous2! Very nice track! I think your vocal was actually quite good. So, I would encourage you to do more. I especially liked the fact that the lyrics were in French. French, like Italian and Spanish, is a very musical language. Much better than English I think. More emphasis on vowel sounds.
I think that your wife would be very pleased with this song for her. It is a very special gift.
Anyway, if I were working on the mix for this track I'd experiment with a few things. I'd try tightening up the bass using a compressor and EQ. I think the mid-low frequencies are a bit too prominent in the mix and makes it sound a bit "muddy". It sounds "full", but it would be worth some effort to see how it sounds if each instrument/voice in the track is placed in its own area of the frequency spectrum. Personally, I liked how the vocal sounded and I'd bring up its level in the mix a little bit - at least in some sections.
I liked the vocoder that you introduced at the end of the track, but I thought that the synth sound with the filter sweep competed with it too much. I would experiment with either dropping the filter sweep treatment, or reducing its intensity, or at least reducing the level of that instrument in the mix. I think the vocoder part was really interesting and should be the focus of attention for the listener.
My last comment is definitely subjective and you probably won't agree. Again, if I were mixing the track I think I would try dropping some of the new elements you introduce as the track progresses. I thought that simplifying the arrangement a little bit might make it more impactful. You have lots of variety as the track progresses, but I'm not sure that they all contribute to a cohesive experience. I could be entirely wrong about this and it might be more a question of the level they have in the mix rather than eliminating some of them entirely. But, I would definitely experiment. Each new element in the track needs to have a purpose and should somehow tie in with the fundamental essence of the track.
All that being said, it is entirely possible that having experimented with all those things I mentioned, I'd leave the track unaltered because it just sounds really good the way it is right now, keeps my interest from beginning to end, and conveys the emotion effectively. After all, that's really the true purpose of any piece of music. N'est pas?
Hello !! I read with attention your comment and firstavle i thank you for the time you take to give your view.
I'll try what you tell me about the bass, the vocoder and the filter sweep.
If it's not too much to ask you, could I ask you for advice by email ?

thx alot Eric !!
You have little to worry about with the mixing. You have balanced the vocals and the backing track well. Just do the same with everything you do and you will have no problems. Your voice is fine and suited to a variety of genres. You both sound 'pretty good together. Interesting track, enjoyed listening. Thanks for uploading.
Petit ajout! je me disais bien que quelque chose dans ce morceau me faisait penser à un autre titre! et là ca y est, ca a matché en le ré écoutant: il y a un petit quelque chose de kavinsky (nightcall)
encore bravo c'est un super boulot en terme de compo
le morceau est franchement interessant, nle beat est superbe notamment par contre il y a de serieux déséquilibres sonores sur les différentes pistes. Après ca c'est juste du réglage mais bon, c'est pas la partie que je maitrise le mieux moi même!!! A la limite, à l'oreille tu peux déjà pas mal compenser et si par magie tu connais un ingé du son, là tu auras un mixage tip top!
en tous les cas, j'aime beaucoup ce petit son! bravo
Merci Bleep pour ton commentaire. Quand tu dis déséquilibre tu veux dire quoi? Je sais que les voix, je galère vraiment !
J'aurai aimé m'y connaitre mais je trouve ça tellement compliqué le mix !!
Merci encore ;)
You have a high pitched voice that has great quality.
I reckon you could do a lot with that on most genres.
Reminds me of something in my past the whole thing but I can't put my finger on it.
Good stuff though.
