Anyone got arrangement thoughts?

[K-dub]

Came back to this again with fresh ears and fresh thoughts about direction.

I did happen to find a local trumpet player, but we've not yet set a date to lay down any tracks ... as he's terribly busy. He has said he would though, when he gets a chance. In the meanwhile, this placeholder will have to do.


I attempted to widen and better define each instrument in a more pinpointed position, as well as add better tone and definition to Jeff's bass part, which I think is superb.

New mix is at the head of the thread ...

Great song,

I thought the first break didnt work (0.40) I'd keep the groove going.
I'd use the ride out "left her behind" earlier in the song as a second chorus and go back to it at the end. Its arranged well as is too. Excellent work.

That point strikes me as slightly clunky too. Good thought.

Silly me. I still think the chorus is too much like the rest of the song energy/dynamic wise. I here something fuller, higher energy there. (more vocals) The song is really very good as it is, I'll look for it when you finish it.
