Keith Wilby Posted January 3 Posted January 3 Written in the 1980s when I was in my 20s. I'd always wanted to write the opposite of a love song and this is what I came up with. The vocal is from the 80s, everything else is new. Comments appreciated. It's a bit long ... sorry 😳 https://www.bandlab.com/post/270564f2-dac9-ef11-88cd-6045bd345b20 1
Bajan Blue Posted January 4 Posted January 4 Hi Keith I like this - good track - mix sounds pretty good as well Cool Nigel 1
timboalogo Posted January 10 Posted January 10 I like the song, Keith. Lyrically, it has the feel of "This One Goes Out To the One I Love", but is very much different. Great singing, can you tell us what you did to reprocess a 40 year old vocal? Did you have to do any pitch correction or do you sing pretty well in tune, like it sounds? The drums sound great, as does the lead guitar. Maybe the snare could cut through a touch more. IMO the mix is a bit dry in the reverb department and the bass needs to be moved back, while the rhythm guitar can come forward. As for the lyrics, well done. I liked "I'll build a wall around your brain"! Thanks for sharing, Timbo 1

Nothing in the way of pitch correction, I could properly sing back then 🤣 On 1/10/2025 at 8:44 PM, timboalogo said: The drums sound great, as does the lead guitar.

Duly noted, will revisit, thanks @timboalogo
equality Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Rocking all right! I get some Phil Collins vibes, except for the two voiced guitar. Very well performed. I'd like the vocalist closer to the mike. 1
bjornpdx Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Nicely done. I like it. Wondering if you extracted the vocal using stem separation technology? Anyway, the vocal sounds really good even after 40 years. Maybe bring it up just a bit though. -Bjorn 1
