Thick, heavy, raw. The reverb and effects soften it, I think that is good production. Sounds like you were going for it on the vocals, attitude comes across well in vocals. A bit trippy, psychedelic in a way. The track rocks.
My suggestion would be to work on the vocals and the delays on them, to make the initial impact of the words stronger. I love delay, prob my fav effect. I listened both on speakers and headphones, thought the vox could be louder, more out front.
Thanks for the listen and feedback Wayne. I agree with everything you brought up. Vocals need to be refined and brought up in the mix. I am still going through old hard drives looking for the master. All I have right now is a rendered mix of where I left off at. I hope I can track them down. Would love to try and polish this.
Holy crap, blew me out of my mixing chair, powerful right from the first note!
How the vocalist can even talk after a show or a recording session always amazes when they use this technique. I give them tons of credit.
Mix is loud, powerful, guess it pretty much matches the music genre. Would sure be off it the mix wasn't limited as much as it is, giving it that punch.
Not my usual listening material so it's hard for me to, off the top of my head, compare it to what I've heard recently. It's loud. Really loud. Maybe I'm just getting too old, ha!
It feels good to see some of the old users still being around.
The vocalist is just fine :)). It's technique more than anything.
The limiter is actually there to bring the volume up, the punch is there even in the mix without any limiting, it's all in the balance of the individual tracks. But yeah it is loud, really loud even for my taste :))
And speaking of coffee I gotta get me some as well"
Cool track Mark, mix is really clean, big and bright! I dig delays so the gits were just right. The pads are a nice touch too, they can really fill space subtly and add so much depth. Vocals are sounding great too, sitting in the mix perfectly!
The title and the composition are well matched up. The song sure chilled me out and made me reflect on times that weren't so violent and filled with hate and mistrust. I guess that's why we sometimes escape to music as a respite from the crazy world we live in.
Hey Patricia, You always deliver with your vocals, impressive! It's nice to see you around, hope you plane to be around more often, you are so talented.
I love the track and it seems like many have offered some good suggestions to help improve it. But looking down the list of commenters I find it a bummer how many of these wonderful artists are no longer active here. I do wish many of these people come back and contribute again.
I am back, who knows how long this time? Life, ya know. :-) But I'm glad there's always muzic, and yes quite a bit of the regulars seem to have gone missing, or are surfing low on the radar. I miss it! Thanks for the listen Wayne!!! :-)
A melancholic tune that's spacious and emotional. All good things to set a cool atmosphere and get a feeling across. Nice blend of sounds/instruments too. Nice job!
There is a level of intensity and tension here that I think would work in a sci fi movie. A journey with many trials and tribulations set about anywhere in a cinematic sense. Real decent mix too!
Ahhhhooooo yeah ! Thanks Wayne. You know the most famous werewolf song ever is Warren Zevons "Werewolves of London". A cult classic which he said was a dumb song for smart people. His biggest hit by far and such a clever song. There's been many movies made over the years about werewolves and yet somehow the monster with the deepest history and the most realistic origins is among the least popular. Did you know Lycanthropy is real? Its a rare psychiatric syndrome that involves a delusion that the affected person can transform into a wolf. There are many documented cases that date all the way back to the Bible which refers to King Nebuchadnezzar's behavior in the book of Daniel 4 as being a manifestation of clinical lycanthropy. Crazy huh?
The movie Southern Comfort from back several years comes to mind. Don't mess with the locals.
I've worked in the bayous of the deep south when I traveled the country splicing fiber optic cable years ago. It's different down there, dangerous to some extent. This piece really puts me back to the days of sitting on the railroad tracks in the middle of nowhere surrounded by...your soundtrack basically.
I have to agree with what everyone has stated, yeah, pretty beautiful and sweetness for the ears. Such a clear, clean mix. What can I say, brilliant man!
Time well spent giving this one a listen and I do appreciate a copy, thanks for sharing!
Cool recording! Never heard of the go getters, have to check them out. Needs some bass to even out the mix a little. Vocals sound good, clean and the guitars sound good too. Look forward to hearing TV's mix if he follows through. It's rock and roll and who doesn't want to rock out? Well done!
Decent track! I liked the way it built up. Mix is very good, the vocals sit nicely in the mix. The guitars are meaty and fit the feel and mood of the song.
One comment up to now? Like danke, I am surprised.
Such a clean crisp mix, fantastic, beautiful and peaceful! Guitars have a nice reverb on them, makes them sound big and spacious. Violins are layered beautifully too! Delay on piano works nicely as well.
I must ask Leon, how bout sending me some of your talent? ha! Enjoy the rest of your summer!
Hey Wayne my friend...always a pleasure ! So glad you enjoyed this one and your generous feedback is much appreciated as always ! Well, my so called 'talent' is still in developement phase and if in the future by any
coincidence happens there will be some surplus of it, I'll
send it over...I promise...haha...
This is fantastic! A melting pot of musical genres, well executed piece. I can hear all the instruments clearly. The guitar work is great, love that funky wah wah pedal! Great guitar to start the song off with. Sax is a great touch, nice reverb on it. I like the small vocal snippets that are in there too.
Thanks, Wayne, you lifted my spirits, too. I am essentially housebound these days anyway, so I can only see low-hangers through the window. I'm so glad you liked it, I worked hard to even out the volumes. I was trickier than handle and some loops glare a bit. I was encouraged by the response so I whipped up anther one. Maybe you'd like do the vox on it?

You could push your volume levels a little more to get a louder mix. Play around with some different type of compression in your daw. That will make your tracks even punchier and louder.
For a second attempt it was sure darn pretty good effort!
In my head I can hear a vocal track from Sade in the mix. :)
It's a cool track to have in the background as you go about some chores. I think another part like a bridge or a change of some sort might bring some dynamics to give the song a little more interest. Not to be too negative but it is a bit repetitious in some regard. Doesn't mean made the track uncool, ha! No! I liked it, cool idea and a nice mix!
I was really take aback when the guitar started, very cool intro! The guitar work really captured me, the bass was well done too. I hear many different styles of music in this track which intrigues me when I listen and want to hear something not typical and cool. The vocals were totally unexpected but fit with the rest of the track which was much of the same, it all comes together though.
i apologize for the mate answer! thanks a lot Wayne for this feedback, it's always important to know the listeners feeling!
each time i try to work on unsual tracks, i don't want to close my mind on a particular genre or style! it's my own choice and be sure in my desk, there's a lot of unfinished tracks ( i wrote "RIP" on their faces lol)
Clean sounding recording, I can hear all the instruments, so nice mix. This music doesn't come around here too much, it is welcomed!! Well put together and a nice track to get me in a good good mood!
As for reference, not too much compression on each instruments, but put African percussion, djembe with waves low air plugin. Main theme performed by solo flute comes with eventide black hole reverb plug in. Acoustic piano is Native Instruments' The Giant. I mixed with izotope ozone and neutron for tweaking frequency collision. I hope my story is useful for you. See you again!
Cool track man! Sax and piano working nicely together. Drums sound well placed in the mix. Easy on the ears and creatively done. Cool soundscape, made me sit back and take a deep breath. I liked the ending as well.
Great use of Patricia's vocals, very strong track. The rock groove you have behind her vox are very cool and a little unexpected with her style. It works though and it rocks! Sounds like something I would hear on the radio, professional sounding arrangement and idea.

Thanks Wayne I appreciate it sir.
