A Tribute Song For My Friend

[CrowsofFritz]

My friend died last month and this is a tribute to him. I think I need to compress the strings a little and turn down that guitar solo. The first note on the bass also doesn’t mesh well with the strings. But other than that, I think it’s really coming along!

Nice job, my only nit is that the strings step on the vocals in a few spots I'd do some careful automation. Sorry 4 your loss, you wrote a good song, I listened twice I like it. Also Automate the first guitar notes, try some reverb maybe.

The vocals could be a little louder. Good song. Sorry for your loss.

I think I’m going to cut the low notes in the guitar solo. And yeah, I’ll have to automate the strings a bit. Thanks, PDP!

Sorry for your loss. It's a really nice track. I think the main nits have been noted above.

A little "She's Leaving Home" influence on this one, yes?

Nicely done - a fine tribute.

I’ll turn the vocals up a bit and automate the strings some.

Ohk bro i understand

I dig the strings. The lead guitar seems a little hot to me.

Very nice song crow man and sorry for your lost. You sound like Ringo singing on this 1 and it definitely has a Beatles vibe

Nice song. Thanks.

I can empathize. Lost a couple over the past 2 years myself.

On the mix, I confess I'm a serial "ducker" and when they get bigger than a few tracks I start bussing instruments together and duck the bunch against the vocal track. Just enough to let the consonants get through a bit. (I agree the guitar lead might fit better if it was a little "sweeter" and sustained. A little less OD and some delay maybe?)
