Very cool and a very brave track. I also really liked the poem, I'll delve a bit more into him!

That's pretty good! Try to find a rap in the acapella section that suits this, maybe like Melvatron or MC Norad?

Dude, this grabbed me instantly! Super interesting chords, and really great keyboard playing, and good instrumentation too. Absolutely lovely!

I like it, it has a really cool vibe are your vocal is strong!

Another nice one Alessandro!
Let me know if you're up for a remix/collab!

Yeah that's a great step forward. Well done man!!

Hey Alessandro, I think that super promising! You have your own voice and you're singing with passion.
I do think you can benefit from better mixing (and maybe a bit less effect on the vocals); and given that the track is 4:58 it wouldn't hurt to have some variation in the accompaniment, both so you can separate verse/chorus/break, but also to keep the listener interested, and to build towards a climax in the song.
Please take this as positive criticism, I think this is really promising, and I think you can be really proud of it!

Damn man, that's really good. You managed to drag me from the side of your wife (I don't like DnB either) to your side... This is just a really good track!!
Isn't it nice sometimes to take an old project and yes it's a mess and you would do everything different today... But there was something there and it gave you new inspiration. Great stuff!

You're on a roll man! That's a great vocal find btw, very good voice!

Love it, as usual (I saw your name and knew what to expect.
One thing to consider is the chord progression you follow in the section from say 2:55. It doesn't completely mash with the vocals, which is fine for a bit, but I feel you need to bring it back at some point to have the full effect.
See if you agree - if not, still an awesome track and much love to all participants!

I think it's a pretty interesting one, but you've turned up the gain so much it's hard to tell, to be honest :D
Try to leave some headroom so it doesn't distort - of course if you did that intentionally then just ignore me.

Great one Kirk. I especially like the "weird" bits like around 2:07 where it's spacing put. Good work!!

I like it. And if it's for your wife, then just give the lyrics a try man, even just as spoken word. Makes it more personal - and some of us have a voice like Bob Dylan, just accept it :)
Regarding the Afro sound, I think you can dial back the synths a bit and make them a bit more crisp (maybe a bit less reverb of effect), that might give them that West African sound. Good luck, I like it!

That works really well! But do try to remember who you use, people generally appreciate if you use their loops :)

That's really good to hear buddy. Big musical hug :)
I think we've never discussed any kind of collab, but if you're up for it, hit me up!

Smooth jazzy sounds - the weird time signatures don't hinder the listener, and they really work in the track. Well done!

That's lovely man! Very, very relaxed... Very smooth!

Very nice man! One tiny note: you could consider to remove some of the power chords, to make the arrangement a bit lighter. Otherwise as always a great effort and Lauren's voice is of course awesome :)

You may remember I already did that ;) make sure you follow me back :D

Love it. Very strong track!

Yay, I'm one of first to be able to listen to your new track :) Always a pleasure, always great my friend. Give my regards to your band, as always, and great guitar play!

I like it a lot, I think you did them proud man!

Brilliant. I love her voice a lot and you did a great job with it!

Like it, really good!!

It's a lovely sound, and you made a nice track with it. It's also clear where you got the inspiration; that's great of course, these are your first steps. I think you will also come up with something your own more and more, and I'm looking forward to that! Have fun!
