I like it Scott. It could just be a lil faster for me, and vox a bit louder. :)
 
I am diggin' it...

The vocals need to come up.
and the guitars can come down JUST a hair.

I know you're going for the seventies drum sound and I think you're there..I mean.You can "hear" the kick and snare but they're muffled it's just a percussive sound with out any really definition...I think we could stand to hear the snares on the snare a little bit without losing the 70s effect. The highat needs a little room in there somewhere too.

But you know...it's a really good tune and it's done really well.
I am truly impressed.

Good job.

Really nice work. I actually like this song. I think bringing the guitars down a tiny bit would work. If you really want a 70's sound though, you need to try to get rid of that "digital" sound. Easier said than done, I know.

I'd roll some highs off the strings, maybe compress them more with a nice vintage or vintage emulating compressor. There's a few parts where they stick out too far (levels), and the decay is a little too fast, I think. Verb could maybe smooth that out, and the right verb might give you just that 70's sound you're looking for.

Actually, rolling highs off everything might be good to make it sound like a genuinely older recording. If you really wanna go for it, try re-miking it through 70's era speakers (for fun) or record your master to tape. Even a 4-track might add the tape saturation you probably desire. And then there's tape hiss. Sometimes, a little hiss is exactly what a project needs, IMHO.

Bueno, bueno...
 
Great song

Really enjoyed your tune. I agree that the vocals should go up a bit. Love the crisp sounding (double) acoustic guitars.

What gear do you use?
