Ok sorry it was me it works.
I'll stick my neck out and give some feedback. its only my humble opinion, and its not the sort of music i listen to so ignore it, I'm also listening on the built in speaker on a G4 so really what the fuck am i going on about eh !?
The vocalist sounds a lot like the bird out of portishead,, great !! the strings etc in the background compliment it well, and i like the different reverb effects etc on the vocal coming in and out (after initial reservations) - The chords / vocal melody are also unusual enough to sound fresh. the intro (before the beat) is faintly reminiscent of inner city life by Goldie, which is a classic tune.
Then the beat and the arpeggio come in..
The beat is very mechanical. its sounds quite robotic, and quantized, and to be honest seems to be fighting the mood established. it's like you want the tune to 'kick in' at that point - but its a chilltune and not a dance floor filler so you could ease back, give it a bit more old soul smokiness, that nightmares on wax makes sound really easy !! concentrate on the beats make them slurr and swing a bit, and drop them back in the mix. maybe bring up the bass a bit to compensate ?
....thats it, make of it what you will.
cheers,
