This is very groovy! The "feel the bass" sample really spices things up! Nice stereo placement and mixing! Good use of loops! Very cool!

Haha!!! I love your descriptions!! This is a great dance track, vibrant beat and nice use of vox. Get it mastered!!

Very nice track, very well arranged and great one to relax to!

Like the two track effect, it works for me musically, vocally and any other ally you can think of! Try not to get too rapped up in the technicality, you'll lose your spontaneity and the emotional flow of the song. Great job and a fav from me.

I vote for the two parts to stay together.
Really loved this: good piano, good atmosphere, wonderful voice and a very tasteful mix.

PS: I think Behnam's right, but I am not sure this is a flaw: in the end you have a good sounding track and this is the most important thing.
My personal approach is always to first analyze and try to fully understand the vocal part I am using: I try to play the vocal part with an instrument myself to get an idea of the intention of the singer.
But then... your result is so good that I think you may be right and I am wrong: sometimes too much thinking is not good in art.

well ,dear S.J althoughT Steve is some how righT about theme buT I think this beautifull piano ( what a good qualitY ) deserved to be heared & I enjoyed iT aloT.this matter occures for us all, & regarding how music effect's on our brain, I suggest U to take a look to this article if U may minded to www.cnn.com/2013/04/15/health/brain-music-research
also abouT Katie acapella , she sings so good , buT there's 2 matter here , once her pella was in 6.8 measure line( she too had written 3.4 in description )buT your instrumental music was 4.4 (althought it's easilY solvable ) , also my suggestion abouT vocal after that admirable technical part of modulation is using 2 interval line of that acapella as vocal..buT even U could add some cello & add some SaX or other aerophonics even flutes too after modulation & this nice piece reallY deserved for being hear even withouT vocal as a cinematic track too .apology for long comment S.J.best wishes.___B

Well i really enjoyed this!

beautiful piano,beautiful vocals!.

For me it's not about perfection,it's about enjoyment.!

The main thing even if just experimenting is to enjoy what you create!.

Thumbs up from little old me!

yr description + the music makes me think of a place called turnagain arm in alaska where when the full tide comes in it slaps back across the continent and meets itself in the middle and the result i've seen is like a wave standing still - it's unearthly but earthly - rare and beautiful

I think the song works well all the way through. The piano sounds nice and it's a nice melody line that works well with the vocals, which are outstanding! Cool track, like it! I read crucethus' comment about George Michael's song, haha, I can see his point but that's a good compliment in my opinion!!

Cheers!

Very peaceful and chill, excellent work!

Youre right im being an idiot, I have bipolar disorder sorry,

I like the drums and percussion towards the end. It's coming together nicely. It's definitely a sound-scape that has your style written all over it! I just realized that your piano chord structure in the end section is similar (not the same as) "Father figure" from George Michael, cool!
Steve

Well this has plenty of atmosphere. Nice layering of the vocals with the big reverb going off all over. It almost has a kind of dub sound to it except with pianos rather than bass.
This is a well chilled track and it compliments the spliff i've just smoked perfectly so cheers for that!

Yeah.....now you`re cooking SJ....sounds good....clear as a bell.....way to go....Ed

a lot of character in this one, sounds pretty in tune too to me! you should definitely continue with that, maybe work on the vocal integration some more but also don't over it. lovely piano. i think keeping it simple and minimalistic is a good way to go here to gradually sculpt the character this track holds.

This is very professional sounding! I really like what you've done with these vocals! Nice piano work for sure! A very pleasant listening experience!

haha that's a shiny Saab here....awesome tune. Psychedelic groove of an early 90's warehouse party, wee in the early morning hours. Has a seductive nature that would inspire some dirty dancing. Keep up the great work!

Hey SJ....this is great!..love the huge sound stage present throughout,piano and vocals work so well together....with a track like this where space is at a premium it would be very easy to add lots of extra elements,which I might add could overwhelm the ambience you've already created....however if viewed as an audio drawing where the primary consideration is keeping things in perspective,adding things like electronic transients,strings,percussives etc can be incorporated successfully as long as they remain behind the reverb model you've created and move in conjunction with subtle volume changes...less is more here like a ballet stag...excellent work so far! cheers Dave

Lagom!

This is really amazing work SJ, you are progressing at lightning speed, Great job.

Hello ....

A subtle and clever musical montage, .... A beautiful melody but also surprising.
The piano brings here a mysterious side that I like ....
I agree here, with leading commentators, concerning the voice and reverb.
This does not detract from the originality of the concept .... and I hi here your talent of creator .....

Dan

I am really loving this track. It's melody is soothing and awesome. Please keep up the good work.

Ok , now were in tune, and the piano sounds great down tuned. Now my other suggestion is I agree with Ed in that you should back down a bit on the reverb on her voice. Then it will sound much better with the piano, but it is becoming a spectacular start.! Keep doing!

well...I think you`re off to a fine start SJ...I love piano (even though I sometimes claim to be an ol guitar guy)..perhaps reduce the volume very slightly and maybe try inserting a mid-side processor to widen the piano and leave a vocal spot in the middle (there are some decent free ones...check Brainworx Music for their BXSolo)..I don`t mind quite a bit of reverb..although I might reduce it a touch (its a personal taste think I think)...also..on your reverb setting...set the pre-delay quite long (50ms or so) and that will allow the initial vocal phrases to sound clearer before the reverb kicks in...The disonance isn`t overly concerning but you could check the key relationship between the piano & vocal & perhaps get them closer.......will have to check back & hear how you make out....Keep it rolling...and a well done to you....Ed

Piano is too loud, chocking the track. need to keep an eye on your output spectrum so the do not peek red if you no what I mean. Put the piano stereo wide and bass no more at at 10 o'clock possittion and keep it very suttle. that is all i can say for know, beautiful track you is working on and would love to hear how you will get on with this. good job :)
