That's why Joe said Madonna and I agree. Sounds like it could fit on the Ray of Light like a one-hand glove no pun intended.
But hey it is a great track.
Well done Nico

Sorry for late answer, my hand is bothering me, despite the progress made, I still cannot use it as I would like.
Thank you so much!

Ok, so right off I will get this out the way...too much reverb on the vocal [but just for my taste].
At the same time it is possible it adds to the "atmospheric" cocoon of the muzic,
in that case it's a very good thing.
Your muzic is always exciting and light and so much fun,
like a vivid imagination that NEVER leave out any details. :-)
For something like this, I think it is a good idea to share just the instrumental as well, just an idea. :-)
You are right both things, i listen to this after so much time and reverb is too much but it helps the atmosphere too, so, if i make it now, i try to find an half way...
Sound strange read "never leave out any details", 'cause back in the day, i don't pay attention as due to the mix/mastering work, to me was enough that "sounds good", but now, i would change something...
About instrumental...If I send you it, what do you have to do with it? :) :) :)

What I love is the dreaminess feeling.
Like I'm in a protective bubble with all sorts of cool things outside it captivating my attention,
and as I go further and further the shininess and glitter will just get better and better.
I think the vocal married to the muzic is gonna have to grow on me.
Is the vocal a guy or a gal?
Well, vocalist is a girl, named LeoValentine1990.
I'm... moved for your comment!

First I'll talk about what I liked:
The introduction is very interesting, with the weather progressing as the music grows. I couldn't find acapella to compare, but for me the voice has a good timbre and a good volume, in general. The melodic lines of the keyboards I also really liked. The part I liked the most was the buildup after the break, it was sublime.
Now comes the part where I would do different ... Get ready for the buckshot lol
Right at the beginning there is a chord that I didn't like, it just clashes with the music in my view, although it is the same chord at the end, where it was good.
Before the stop, you created a cut and repetition effect of the voice, to my taste, it sounded a little strange, maybe it's out of time or out of key.
After 2:10 you created an ambience effect in the voice and I didn't know what the intention was, because the volume decreased but didn't disappear, and then she came back. I maybe would do the effect, but I would make it disappear completely and then go back to the other bar.
Between 2:30 and 3:30 minutes I believe it is the climax of the sound, but in my opinion there are many instruments competing for the same space, so perhaps they give the impression of swallowing the voice. I might have interspersed one after the other, or even some instruments on one side and others on the other, to release a little bit of information.
Finally, on the last bar, I would have finished the song with a last low note along with the kick, seasoned with a little reverb effect, I think it would sound better.
Well my friend is that, a lot of what I said is personal taste, and it varies from person to person.
Overall music has a good 80's feel to it, and the voice is great.
Good productions and I hope I can count on your free consultation on other projects of mine!
Regards!

As for the acapella, the question is very complicated, I'll explain everything in PM.
The only effects applied to the acapella are a multiband compressor (with the mid frequencies cut as much as possible) and the crossfading game between wet and dry in the reverb. The rest is all Eighteen's work, are effects that he applied on his acapella before sending me the copy.
I have listened to the defective chord several times, yet I can't understand why it sounds bad, I have to investigate haha
The acapella that decreases in volume is an attempt to "phantomize", because leaving it continuously made the track too boring since it always repeats the same loop.
It's true, when vocals returns to 3:05 it actually seems buried by the instrumental ...
The last bar I left it like this, because in the intentions, this track had to be part of a fake suite (maybe i'll do for real some day), that crash reverse had to introduce the next part of the suite, as well as the effect at the beginning had to be the tail of the previous part.
It's nice to be able to have constructive criticisms, the listener's points of view are important!

Really nothing bad to say here :)
All sounds good and in the right place. Her voice is really special and i like the vibrato a lot. So i think you done a good job on what you wanted to do.
But in a way i believe that a much darker and a more wave oriented version would have been better. But that is just my opinion and is not any kind of critic at all.
A really nice one to listen to.
Much respect for both of you!
stay tuned
joe
Just i don't understand what you mean with "wave oriented".
Sure, to be a seventies theme, is maybe a tad brilliant, and this don't help to give that flavours.
It could be one of the fixing i can do, so... tell me! aahahh

Thanks!

The point at 2:00ish is brilliant that the vocals fade away, I wasn't referring to that.
At 3:00 I noticed the vocals come back, but that's where it is getting overwhelmed/buried by the instruments, is what I meant :)
Maybe the limiter did his job, 'cause it was one of the spots where there was a bit of distortion... if i create an automation on volume, distortion cames back, so that's the best i can do with the means i have available!

some part the vocals get buried..i got a solution my friend.sidechian the whole track but the high mid...like 1k-5k with vocals
Read my reply to Eighteen comment to discover my "magic trick"
on 18 feat LeoVal - Youll be alive RetroFuture Vision by HenryPascal
I understand what you meant now with lack of audio quality.
This kick I can feel in my head, feels really good.
At around 3:00ish the vocals get buried abit with the louder music.
But other then that you promised me I wouldn't be dissapointed and you were right!
Fantastic work man, I absolutely love it!

I was sure you notice about voice buring, but... that's not!
This is my magic trick:
If you pay attention, voice begin to fade since 2:00, because i played with the "wet" and "dry" knobs on reverb! Dry turns almost off, wet turns to 50%, to "phantomize" the vocals, that, in it's repetition, was a bit boring! Then, the vice-versa, to get back at circa 3:05
You didn't expect this, be true!

It's kind of trippy, flippy, nippy, riffy (ok, not riffy, hehe).
Fun! :-)
Yes,this was a 2004 medieva-software-made track... but the resulting mess is not so crappy ahahah
Waiting for your comment on my tracks with Junior Paes and 18 feat. LeoVal ahahah

Beginning is chill, and at 1:19 my eyes went O_O
:) damn nice 80s sound, that bass loop is amazing!
Then that panning effect, perfect! (the voice kinda startled me for a second, thought someone was behind me lol)
Cheers!
