hockeyjx 90 Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) Harmonies are king for me, and you do a great job on those. For me(and I always get vilified for it), I'd bring the vocals down slightly so you get a little more of the music. Also, I like vocals a little more wet - but I don't have your voice, so..... 🤐 But that is nitpicking, and this is another solid song!

RexRed 188 Posted August 6, 2022 Hello Hockeyjx, I brought the lead vocal down into the mix more. I fixed a weird harmony part that was out, it is closer to being right. Turned the reverb down a bit on the ending vocal part that was way too wet. I added a bit more reverb to the lead vocal. Your comments were entirely spot on! I also found out that the lead vocal compressor somehow got bypassed in the other mix. That is turned on now. These comments are VERY helpful peeps! Thanks lot for the awesome critiques! 💖🎶👍🌹 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RexRed 188 Posted August 6, 2022 If you purchased this song on Reverbnation be sure to download the new version as well. This is why I use Reverbnation, so I can offer new updated versions to my fans under the same song they already purchased. 👍🎶💗 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supa Reels 305 Posted August 7, 2022 Has the feel of an Eagles vibe .. love the harmony as it's just right and not overcooked .. As said you have a great voice ! Steve 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RexRed 188 Posted August 7, 2022 Big thanks to you Steve for your kind and very flattering comment! I love the Eagles and they are a great influence indeed! 💖 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyB01 491 Posted August 7, 2022 Definite Eagles vibe - another superb addition to a long list of excellence - harmonies around 2 mins are terrific. I really am running short of superlatives to describe your stuff. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Bush 319 Posted August 8, 2022 Another super song ,love the subtle build-up to the drums always adding a just the right amount, super constructed song , well done cheers Paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RexRed 188 Posted August 8, 2022 Andy, your descriptions are quite nice, thanks for the really great comment! The Eagles are kings of harmonies (and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young as well)... Yes Paul, the drums to me did not sound right coming in full volume, it seemed stepping up the drum volume worked better, a little less intrusive. I am surprised you picked up on that. When I left the drums low throughout, there seemed to be something unsatisfying about it. I really appreciate all of the critiques and compliments on my music awesome Cakewalk peeps! Best to you!
