I will do that.

Trying to resurrect one of my old work (collab with Anakratis) and adding vocal to this Progressive House track - at this moment vocal is only in small portion of this WIP and only as a place holder but you could hear my idea how it suppose to work lol - any thoughts?

Here we go - with vocal:



Cheers,

Darek

I'd like to hear the vocals come back again (I get what you're saying about a placeholder, just want to hear more). Production top-notch as usual.

Starts off good has a solid chug, vocals not really sitting in there, lots of extra mid EQ in there, personally I would have mixed it much different. Even that opening more spoken word vocal part I would take out and just use that more singing part, it would have the benefit it standing out more. There is some EQ somewhere low mid *in the mix I would look at possibly notching down a couple dBs, weird fullness in some small area.

the arrangement is kind of all over the place, for the strongest part of the track to stand out, which is that singing vocal bit, i'd say do a breakdown featuring the vocal and some instrumentation would help, but right now it doesn't have a strongest moment, it just seems to kinda blend. either way the track sounds decent but you really need to find another track on ASOT or TATW or something to A&B it to so the arrangement can improve somehow

i like the vocal, it would be fun to do something with it...

Lol Boob, not sure where to start with your analysis man - arrangement was set to be the stronger part of this track (4 years ago lol) and I know that need to be rework to seat properly with this vocal but I just don't see where this "arrangement is kind of all over the place" comment is base on (unless this is your completely personal take on this track). I do definitely agree that some EQ needs to happen but this will be done a bit later when I will get a lot of more stuff place where it suppose to be - it will have to wait a few good days as I have another release commitment schedule on my list - nice to have you involve man and see you working on new stuff - appreciate !!!

Edit: you pretty much like that track before lol - it is all good man (it was a memory test)

yes personal taste but also not sure I understand the point of dragging a track out for 4 years lol it might just be my personal philosophy and one iv'e developed over time with a friend that moving forward means just starting new tracks. it's not a style i know about or listen to but if it's a style that hasn't changed in 4 years i don't know. i believe i've heard better work from you. it's personal tho

A current work in progress, it's still at the very beginnings of the draft period where I'm figuring out how things sound with one another.

Nothing has been EQ'd or compressed yet, except a limiter in the master track.

Too much bass, too wild, too strong, too big, overwhelming, dominant, uncontrolled, boomy, huge, enormous, gigantic, massive, powerful, mighty, potent, titanic, imperial.

How are we suppose to give proper feedback if how you started was totally the wrong way.

It is all good Man, just one of those great sounding track (from 4 years ago) rework - will sound good on the end you can trust me lol (if I decide to work on it).

Cheers mate,

Lost I typically do compression as I'm going I just felt like getting ideas done first this time.

Whoa lots of adjectives but yea I'll clean it up a bit. Right now ideas are flowing but I guess I need to restrain them.
