Critique Needed
Hello all....
I'm in need of some opinions of a new song I am doing.
I am thinking I would like to extend it and have some groovier drums kick in, but I like where it's at right now too.
Currently there is a bit of spoken word, but I don't know if it fits in the mix quite right.
Please have a listen and your insight is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the comments. I agree about the vocals..they need reworked (timing and volume)
Thanks again for listening.

Hey, this is...
...reallly good.
Nice cinematic quality. Good name too.
Composition, melody line and chord changes all really cool.
The whole drum section could be *slightly* louder.
Except the kick, which is a little too thumpy. Maybe a *tiny* bit less bassy?
The vocals are a little bit buried. They sound like good lyrics too, so I wanna *hear* them.
Looking forward to hear the revised mix!

Re: Hey, this is...
Thanks for listening. I agree that the vocals are a bit buried. I plan on going back to it once i finish some other 1/2 finished songs. Im still getting used to Live. This was only my 3rd song, so as time passes and I figure out all the effects and everything else my mix should progress. Thanks again for the critique, it is very helpful!jetmark wrote:...reallly good.

Very well crafted! You have a nice soundtrack feel going here. If that's the intent, then the vocal level is just right, where there is a focus on a visual image. If the music is meant to stand on it's own, then you might consider bringing the vocals up, but not too much. The constant brooding works well.

Thank you! I most likely will increase the vocal level a tad and have the song stand on its own, and also add about a minute to the length. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. Its much appreciated!heretoeternity wrote:Very well crafted! You have a nice soundtrack feel going here.

Thanks..Too bad it takes me so long to construct them, otherwise all my half finished songs would be done by now. I really like your jams too.Broken Chip wrote:Your tracks are very well constructed, and I like the way each track works.
It's some great listening.
Thanks for taking a listen. I like the closeness as well. I guess that gets to the point...write music for yourself and if others like it, thats a bonus.fingerprince wrote:Someone said more reverb but I must say I really like the closeness, so personally I wouldnt.
