hi guys,
im sitting in my studio right now, pulling my hair out over something.
here's the deal.
if some of you remember, i posted a track by one of my artists, Amy Phillips. a track called what i need. well, we're working on a new track, bit upbeat, very rhythmic kinda thing.
now everything is going great, except, the chorus is lacking something. .it just doesn't have the punch im after. usually, im good with this kinda thing, but i just cant hear what needs to be there on this one. ive just got a complete brain block. can any of you guys hear any particular instruments/lines/whatever in this. i was thinking very squelchy filter work, but then i didin't like the idea. i know you need the vocals to really understand the track, but musically, tell me what you think might sound cool in the chorus.
the chorus is at 1:07, plus all the other places with similar instrumentation.
here is the link.

it's not "What I need", it's the other one!
THIS TRACK HAS NO VOCALS AND IS STILL VERRRRYY ROUGH. it's got a bit of noise here and there, simply cus all the channels are up and i haven't done any automation yet. its far from finished.
ive spent most of the afternoon programming and playing with drums on this track so any ideas on that would be great too. oh,ignore the cymbals,i had a gate on them by accident so they cut out quick
cheers, any ideas would be great, and make it quick if possible!!
btw,to people who responsed on the last amy track, ive got meetings with a few BIG record labels who are interested in amy. fingers crossed, eh?!
