Hey,
I'm new to this forum. I've been a member of a few others which seem to be obsessed with gear instead of knowledge, so looking for something new for some inspiration.
I'm working with a singer-songwriter to record a few songs for an EP, so that he can find a band. This is the song that we have completed the farthest at this point.
We tracked acoustic and vocals first, and then added and subtracted elements as we went. After tracking everything I started a new mix from scratch (helped immensely!)
Drums and bass were played by a couple friends of mine as favors. At this point the artist is not impressed with the bass track, so that's probably going to be a re-record. Thinking of a bowed standup bass at the end.
I think something just needs to be changed in the first pre-chorus. Can't put my finger on it, but it's just not right. Feels awkward.
So here is the mix at this point, any feedback is appreciated, thanks!
