Well now that you've emerged from the shadows and posted a song here you are gonna get your first review. :) I'm not an electronic music producer so I won't get all technical but I'll tell you what I think of the track.

I liked the intro, the synth and how it arpeggiates is cool. You have some good changes to keep the song interesting, in other words you aren't repeating the same 8 or 16 bars over and over. The "lead" synth is very cool, the melody isn't simple and it adds a lot to the track. The lower synths add that ominous feeling. Some cool effects as well add interest. It has a cinematic feeling to me, a sci-fi thriller sort of idea.

Lots of energy in this one. I hope it doesn't get old that I keep telling you how wonderful Lauren's vox are but they are. I like female singers with attitude and angst in their voice, singers like Chrissy Hein of the Pretenders for instance. Another gem!

Wayne

Gotta watch where you're stepping these days i guess.

Put a smile on my face from the start! Loved all the elements of this. The variety of sounds and effects was surely fun to listen to. I like a more lighthearted, fun approach to music, which I assume most meatnuts do.

This was cool! I liked the intro, the spacious sound into the drums. Gritty, dirty, and heavy for sure, industrial sounding music.

Wayne

Nice song, nice little bits of instrumentation in there other than bass, drums and guitar. Those sounds help to build the feel and mood of the song. Vox are nice and another solid track you put together Michel.

Wayne

I was on the same page as zootman, I instantly thought the Specials too, he. I like Odarka's vocals, she has a great delivery. Guitars have a cool chorus sound to them like thru a Roland Jazz Chorus amp. No complaints here!

Wayne

I was just watching a vid on Gibson tv on their youtube channel, they interviewed Dweezil Zappa and he explained how his father came up with all his unique sounds and how he frankensteined so many instruments to complete the track to perfection. I can appreciate this track more after having just watched that. Fun and interesting to listen to.

Wayne

How sweet can music be? This sweet actually. Such a complete track, the music is fantastic, the vocals/backing vox are so nicely mixed. Congrats to both of you, beautiful!

Wayne

The idea is solid and I agree with Terry, needs a few things like Eddied Vedder vocals, snappy drums and a deep bass. That's all, lol. Great bones to a song!

Wayne

I like the simplicity of it, less is more sometimes. Cool lyrics, bass is neat, melodic, solid track man!

Wayne

Nice solemn track Michel. The vox are nice, professional sounding. Trying to make a comparison to the vocal track, reminds me of a few singers but not one in particular. I guess that's a good thing.

Cheers!

At first I was wondering how dubstep was the genre as it started out as a fine piece of cinematic/orchestral music. As the song progressed I saw how you developed some dynamics by adding some of those dubstep elements, some subtle but effective to build the track up and create an interesting piece. Liked how you ended it as well, nice track!

Wayne

Very cool! Feels like summer as I listen. I enjoyed all the vocal parts that you incorporated in the track. The percussion was great too.

Wayne

I like the mix, nothing's overpowering anything else and I can hear all the elements of the track. Cool vocals, I like the reverb/delay? on it. Well done!

Wayne

Happy birthday! Is that kick drum your heart passionately beating? ;) Nice track, there is a cinematic feel to it, a longing sort of feeling. I hope you can find a singer to serenade your ex.

btw, I still keep in touch with my first serious girlfriend from high school. Still friends, just texted her some pics from high school I found the other day. Good times, precious memories. Hold onto yours and enjoy them.

Wayne

Pretty cool track, upbeat, clean mix and lots to listen to and absorb and enjoy. This should get people moving in a club.

Wayne

Sound great to me!

To me, the thing with singing is to be original, to find where you feel comfortable singing and just go for it. Your wife will do much better and feel more confident once the first album is out. :)

Wayne

I like the atmosphere, smokey bar, dimmed lights, dark, dangerous... Did you say verbal pollen? lol, great lyric! I like the change through the middle, breaks it up a bit. A woman's vocal just going off in the background would sound nice like on Pink Floyd's album Dark Side of the Moon, the Great Gig In the Sky.

Wayne

Although this isn't my usual listening genre, i feel the track is put together very well, kinda pop sensibilities mixed with some electronic sounds and the mix isn't crushed with compression. Actually, I think some more compression could be done to the individual tracks to even some things out some more. Vocals are pretty cool too. Gave it a few listens, catchy for sure!

Wayne

Cool! Made me smile from the get go. Sure, that genre sums it up. Sounds like the gang showed up for an ultra jam and had fun. Don't get much musical diversity here so this is soooo welcomed. There was a guy here named jfw who did a lot of Steely Dan styled jazz and some interesting music. A lot to absorb, gave it a couple listens, fun!

Wayne

Hey Richie, been a while, good to see you! I like the song, good pop song, calming. I like her vocals, soulful. Kinda reminds me of some of Paul Weller's material from a few years ago.

Enjoy the holidays and keep safe!

Wayne

A little P Funk groove, very upbeat, fun! So many cool things here, I liked the vocal? treatment at about 1:50, sound like you manipulated some vox there. Nice mix too!

Wayne

Cool track! I agree with Patricia, the mix puts you in a live venue. Man can she sing. The music works so well with her singing too. Well done to both of you!

Wayne

Nice chord changes first of all. Nice vocal track, as usual. I do especially like the change at the end, picking it up the with the horns gives a nice lift to the track, well done!

Wayne

What a nice song Patricia! I like songs that have vocal phrasings like yeah, yeah, yeah's, ooo la la's, and like you did here. Songs with these types of lyrical hooks commonly get quite popular as far as the billboard charts go. Who doesn't like to sing along to songs with these hooks in them?

Always a pleasure!
