I think there's a big improvement in the mix between the first mix you posted and the last one Mike. It's a cool melody and I like the arrangement - you've cleaned up that mud and clutter over the course of the mixes. The drums are the main thing that still sound off to me. They're kind of...

Hey pete, I've listened to this a bunch of times over the last few days. Like B_H, the bass was coming fine on my headphones too, for what that's worth. I like this song a lot and it's stuck pretty hard in my head. I didn't feel that it sounded particularly weird or that the drums sounded out...

Lemme guess, you were sold from the moment you saw the tribal headwear and spooky masks right? Yeah, I'm not in the best place to listen to stuff at the moment - hence being restricted to headphones to listen. As mentioned elsewhere the windows 10 anniversary update caused some storm damage to...

Yeah, I did wonder if it was something you did at least in part because of self-consciousness about your vocals. Regarding the phasey sound you mention, it may be trying to tell you how to suck eggs, but are you using some kind of phase invert plug-in or switch between the various vocal layers...

It's cool to finally hear what you had in mind for the full version of this song. The instrumental side of things was already well settled and the playing is really good. The vocals change the direction of the sound a little, but it works and fits into the mix well enough. Have you tried...

Btw, you familiar with the band Goat at all? I reckon there are a few similarities in terms of both spirit and sound with you. There's an album of theirs from a couple of years ago called World Music that's pretty good and you might like

Hey fleet, I've listened a bunch of times but never had chance to comment. Last version sounds great to me - the bass was the main thing that stuck out as needing addressing on the previous versions, but it has more definition on mix 4. Everything else is probably personal taste at the moment...

Really strong mix andrushkiwt - I actually think the guitar gain works pretty well throughout & I like the ringing guitar line itself. The only thing I wasn't keen on was the prominent autotune sound in some of the vocals - particularly that first verse. I think it's probably unnecessary having...

This is a cool tune Nola. Restricted to listening on headphones, but as far as I can tell the mix sounds pretty good. I didn't find any of the vocal pitch distracting,but then growing up with pavement, daniel johnston, flaming lips etc I kind of like that style. Your vox actually made me think...

Hey bubba, been looking forward to hearing this with yer man's vocals and guitar solo. Sounds really great and I'm glad he went with his own accent rather than the strange, almost transatlantic one on the demo. Makes the whole song sound much more authentic & i love that "I want you game over...

Thanks fellas. Been away so only just seen this. Updates have always just been automatic on my machine & never had any problems...until now. I don't know much about this side of computers & didn't even know there was this bug update due until suddenly nothing worked. On that basis, no image of...

I'll give that one a try then. I like the Eno solo albums I know. It''s Ferry and that creepy crooner thing I have a problem with I think. Sorry Heat, I'll stop derailing now. Though if you will post a mix for feedback in the Roxy Music thread...

Yes! I just don't get the appeal with Roxy Music either, but they seem to be held in universally high regard. On that basis I keep giving them another go, but I just can't stomach a full song, never mind an album. On hols at the moment, so can't listen currently I'm afraid. Will try and do so...

Had been feeling pretty smug about how smooth the windows 10 upgrade had gone...and then the anniversary update installed itself last week and smashed a great big bowling ball through my music software. Getting registry errors on pretty much all of the commercial software programs and...

Hey VHS, I listened to a few earlier versions of this, but didn't get chance to comment. Just listening to mix 12 now and although I haven't gone back to A/B with the earlier versions, I think it's sounding a lot better than when I first heard it. The lead vocal remains the biggest area that...

Thanks a lot Nola and sorry for the slow response, busy week. Glad you liked the cover choice. I'm not hearing huge issues with the drum/piano timing in the intro, but it may be over familiarity on my part by this point stopping me from hearing it. I'm guessing you listened to the old vocal...

I remember your African Skies cover - love this album and your cover sounds great. I'm playing in a band for a friend's wedding next year and currently trying to get this song onto the setlist. Nothing sounds nitty to me - the doubling of the vocals caught me out at first, but I don't know if...

Nice playing JD! The mix is really well balanced and I really like the stereo spread - everything is clear and has it's own space and you've got some really cool textures from the interplay of all the various parts. The walking bass/clean guitar/wah section is really good. So, what's next with...

Hey paulman, I think the tune's cool and well played. I don't think the mix sounds brittle especially, but I'd maybe like a little more body and thud to the acoustic - I dunno, it's always a balancing act to not stomp on the bass part though and I maybe tend to overdo it myself in that regard...

Awesome, thanks sparky. I'd always thought of Elliott as being kind of Abbey Road era Beatles inspired, but when I come back to do the vocals, maybe I'll try my hand at layering up some vocals if I can. Cheers man :)
