Re: [FEEDBACK] i want my dreams back (subby, emotional, voca

I love those vocals, but the white noise kind of masks them a bit when it comes in. Maybe a touch of eq'ing on the white noise. the bassline is great, this is quite a beautiful song. The organ is a great touch too. The harmonies on the vocals are awesome.

It sounds really dope when all the elements drop out and it's just the bass and drums but the whitenoise at the end is a little too intense IMO.

Cheers dude, this is a really great tune.

which white noise? d'you mean the shakers and rainsticks and such like? cos in that case i might take them down in the mix a little bit.

and thanks, the chord sequence just kinda came to me, the bassline goes nicely i think. thanks man!

d'you think i should send it to any labels or artists or anything? i'm not really sure where to go with it....

thanks for the feedback!

wow mate - what a pearl.

but i have one thing to say:
work on your percs. it has a ridicolous groove - absolutly rolling - but id disappears somehow.

EQing the percussion would do a big part i think. maybe also a little higher levels?

big thing!

Contrary to the others, I don't like the vocal, it sounds false... But the rest is very nice I think.

I like the music behind it all. Really laid back and chilled. But I would definitely remove the vocals, some parts are painfully out of tune! But the rest is mint.

if i did a rework with a guest vocalist does anyone think it would be at a standard that was good enough for labels n shit or does the production need more work?

and cheers everyone for the feedback, much appreciated x

I don't feel qualified to say whether it "deserves" a release, but with a professional vocalist i could definitely seem myself buying it, i think that they could probably do with being a touch dryer as well effects wise.

Everything else is amazing, really nicely put together tune, though do take the rainsticks down in the mix.

It's really nice but those rainsticks need turning down especially at the end. I'd also change some of the percussion - not the beat, just the sounds themselves. The beat's great but needs to come out more. It's a really nice tune though, and it flows quite nicely. At the bit where it's just vocals and organ, it would be nicer if the vocal and the the organ coming in each time was a little more in-sync with each other. The organ sort of hits just before you start singing each time. If you know what I'm talking about?

Nice one though, I really like it.

+don't think of releasing anything. probably too early imho.

always think of doing the next piece of music - time will tell then. ;-)
