The sounds you are using on this track are lovely ! Very warm & menacing. You really seem to have a talent in "setting a scene" with your music. I wasn't so impressed with the vocals though. They seemed perfect in some areas but not quite right in others. Altogether though I enjoyed this track and will defo listen to it again & even again !  Keep them coming secretagent  |

Cheers daniel ;D Its funny,i,ve learnt loads on here about improving my sounds,but i dont have a clue with vocals,so usually they are pretty much as they were recorded which has consisted from louise crouching in a cupboard with a duvet over her head to just recording everything, pa system included  |

I don't like the drums, I don't like the drums, take them away, take them away...  Martin, I know there's another good song in here but I think you've used a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Lou sounds at odds with the arrangement and it's all a bit overcooked to my ears. If you were to have a re-think, I would get Lou to relax a bit more as her tenseness on this performance unsettles me (did you push too hard on this one?). I would ask her for gentle verses and then get her to give it some (with confidence that is) during the chorus. I also thought the first verse was too short on first listening. Keep your atmospherics but soften the heavy piano and try going the oposite way with your drums. Why not some mangled but distant electronic percussion instead?  |

I would get Lou to relax a bit more as her tenseness on this performance unsettles me (did you push too hard on this one?). Once again you,ve nailed it  I was asked to send a cd to our local paper so i hastily arranged a kind of vocal recording session in my loft  (which was tiny as it was but is now getting crammed with huge chunky analogue gear ) Louise only had 1 hour and we needed to record 6 songs so,no it wasnt the most relaxed of sessions But using some of the new gear and some good old advice iam going to persevere with this one ;D p.s is "i dont like the drums....etc"sung to the tune of films? |
