re-review please

[jpw23]

been tweaking an older tune of mine if anyone cares to listen....It's called Abbaesque http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=412155

I think it needs real drums and real bass. seems kinda dry.

If I had the means...they both would be there...thanks for the input!!!

Sounds well mixed, Jay....what BPM? I can rey and do some more realistic drums if you want them to remix.

Other than that, it has a nice vibe...sort of happy, and mellow.

I kinda like the canned drums. Its a cool tune, well done. I like the synthvox patches. NIce and relaxing, and as always its a treat to hear some keyboards around this dump. Very cool, me likey.

Thanks for the review Dogman....as far as bpm...? never pay attention to the numbers, just find what feels right and the drums were played in real time on my korg....hard way to do things but its kinda fun

Thanks David.....it was the makers mark that fueled that tune

Sounds good....The drums don't bother me. They are fairly low key compared to the keyboards which are my main focus... This could - maybe with some selective percussion - probably stand up nicely even without the drums. Might be more soundtrack-like. Just a thought. Anyway - I like the sounds and the arrangement....

Thanks for the comments Ido....always appreciated!

Sounds pretty good to me I don't think real drums are an issue on this. Given the type of music I would be a little supprised to hear real drums in it my self. I think some of the bassier instruments might need to be a bit more up front in the mix IE: drums, bass/synth.

I am still getting used to a new monitoring setup though, so I would not swear to anything at the moment.

I have to browes through your soundclick page again and listen to a few

Later

F.S.

I have been meaning to listen to this - and Freudians song also- but I have no headphones. I'll try listen asap.

Wow!! This is awesome, I love using string samples, well done! Definetely my kind of song! It's very 80s but you must have been aware of that. There's definetely a 'This Could Be Heaven/Radio Ga Ga' Queen vibe to those synths. Cool! I listened to some other stuff, loved it too...guitar fun is really like 'Secret Garden' by Bruce.
