Gloria - Thoughts on this mix

No vocals, just piano, guitar and electric keyboards. How's it sound?

Was that half speed? A cover or original?

I don’t know what you’re going for but that needs a lot of work. Seems more like a scratch pad of a work in progress

I think you need more separation between the keyboards as everything sounds pretty much up the middle. The guitar and vocal could eventually stay close to the middle or goth straight up with the keys on either side.

Pretty muddy. Try to carve out some space in there.

Original. Thanks for the feedback.

Good advice I'll give it a try.

I hear that. Will do.

The sound is pretty charming. It sounds kind of lofi. The playing sounds like piano is not the dude's main instrument. But that's ok...simple, honest stuff has a charm of its own. It's atmospheric. I'd say if it just flowed a little better it'd be, well, better. But good effort. The school yard kids thing reminds me of that old Belle & Sebastian song. I think the song is called "If You're Feeling Sinister".

Thanks for the critique. I appreciate it.
