Just for you, Guernica...(and b/c I can now do this in under :30 minutes without the site crashing), I changed my avatar again.

Acoustics? Sounded more like electrics but the tone was useful enough. Wish I could tell you how, but you need to get the vocal to stand a bit more upfront than that guitar. Likewise the drums.
But working from mp3 is a bitch.

And the whole sound seemed to warble in and out like a cassette that's been stored in the glove compartment for a few years.

Nice tune though!
 
Well I'm incredibly late posting to this thread and I've only read 2/3 of it but here goes anyway.

Great song .... your knack for a good tune and production sense really set this song apart. I really like the style... and without trying to provoke anyone by mentioning the word "Autotune" I think the creative way you us it in the song sets the style in a positive way. I agree, if your gonna use it make it obvious.... and in this case it works well.

You put it perfectly. When I listened to the drum tracks soloed, the kick sounded warm, the snare sounded real meaty, and the high hat even sounded kinda' "dirty," in a realistic way. Again, I don't think the sounds are THAT bad, but it's weird how it doesn't seem to translate once the drums are put back in the mix.

It's hard to judge listening at work through little phones but I agree... the drum sound is really out of place... I have a V drum kit too and would have imagined a quite different sound... I can see what you mean about it sounding electric.... I don't think it's particularly the kit or the players fault. Just need to have a go from a different perspective ? I don't want to tread on anyones toes but I could have a crack at it if you want.
