Beautiful, Your voice has the distinct quality of a Neville brother. Lyrically this is also compelling, the drums are tasteful and add a nice accompaniment to the main piano chords. I was just thinking at 2:22 if you added a subtle gospel choir to 2:40 that this would take it over the top.
Awesome work!

THANK YOU, Steve! I'm very happy to know you enjoyed the track. Your suggestion to add a "subtle gospel choir" is interesting. I'll bounce the idea off my co-conspirator. Thanks again!

Real nice start, keys are in a real good space and sound on the mark...
Voice I know it's not the final!!.. So my view, if I may... :)
You have a really good voice, I'd give it more control of the front
line, with just a little less reverb just a touch...
The trick is the music helps you, not your voice helps the music...
If you get my drift...

I'd like to hear where it goes from here...

Peace...TG.

Your vocals sound so much fuller when they are mixed in the middle. You have a distinct vocal sound, very loose and free, very natural and not forced.

You are certainly taking your talents in a positive direction with what you have done so far. Good luck finishing off this one, so far so good!

hey Mykael,

glad I had a chance to hear this project again.

I think the best way is to determine the chords of the song first, then (eventually) write the melody and record the vocal. Otherwise there might be a kind of a harmonic strangeness happening. There is a clash at 0:56 between drums and piano. Also I do not think this song really starts on the downbeat but that is only my personal opinion.

Anyway this an interesting take.

Looking forward to hear more of this sometime.

Best to you,
Alex

Mykael replied 16th Apr 2015 - 11 years ago
Hey Alex! Thank you so much for stopping by and listening to the track! We are in agreement concerning the clash and the downbeat. It is my custom to work a song backwards, meaning...the first thing that comes to me is the melody. I'm not sure why that is, but it's usually how it happens. There are some other tweaks (aside from those you have pointed out) that will be made....and of course a fresh and cleaner vocal.

Thanks again...your input is invaluable.

Love & Light,

Thank you EYEDYE! I'm happy to know you enjoyed the track. The instrumentation will remain minimal, but everything will be balanced once we map out the bridge and lay new vocals. It shouldn't be long!!! Stay tuned!

I was looking through your track, and definitely gravitated toward the jazz style. This is a really pleasing tune to hear, and you really do have so much vocal potential! Jazz is really a big part of my roots, though it takes a lot for me to listen to vocal jazz. I enjoyed this thoroughly though! I guess my only recommendation is to center the vocal recording. I understand if that's not what you were going for as well. I was trained to make mixes that translate to mono equipment, and panned vocals are often a culprit in this not working out. Anyway, it sounds excellent! Keep it up! Fave!

Mykael replied 22nd Nov 2016 - 9 years ago
Thanks so much for your comments and direction! I am very grateful you took the time to leave your thoughts with me. I was actually just beginning to explore DAWs when I uploaded the track. I wouldn't call myself a seasoned pro just yet, but I have learned a lot since. At some point, I will revisit this track and make the necessary adjustments to my vocal. I might even badger my collaborators to turn this into a proper tune!

LovePeace&Light,

Hey friend

Man what a smooth oh so smooth track, very laid back, total pleasure to the ears, again as I said many a time, you have a vocal that is so easy to listen too and enjoy, massive credit on this one once more mate, mate it stopped :((
Need longer version my friend...Even it was just short piece of enjoyment, still deserves a push of the fav button...Thank you so much for sharing your talent friend...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...

Mykael, outstanding vocal work. I suspect you are trying to mix your vocals into an already mixed track.....if so, it will be virtually impossible to get them to sit in the mix like you want them to.

I'm not criticizing your mixing skills (it sounds pretty good), but I think this has a ton of potential if mixed and mastered properly. That's the nit picking part of the review.

Now for the fun - man you have such great vocal chops. You have the potential to really be a star, you just need the right material and the right studio. You find that and dude, you are going to go places. Just remember I've got a bus and I can play a little guitar and piano as well as haul your equipment, haha.

Very nicely done. I'll keep checking back for edits to this one. I hope all is well.

The reward goes out to you for making me laugh so hard, my dog woke up and took notice! (referencing "haul your equipment").

I am grateful for your comments and encouragement. You are among the best artists on this site(IMHO)whose thoughts matter to me, so trust me when I tell ya if there is ever a time when you do need to be "critical" of something of mine you've listened to, I'm ALL ears. With that said I'm VERY happy you enjoyed what you heard.

Thanks so much Bathers for you awesome comments. I'm happy to know you enjoyed the track! I'm uploading an updated version which still isn't the final product. I tweaked the verses a bit, and we added a bridge (which I'm still working out vocally).

Thanks again!
