New project - review welcome!

Post by ultraboreal » Thu Aug 28, 2014 4:56 am

hi,

we've just finished the first song of our new project! Been working for quite a while on that and like to get some feedbacks it's not the definitive version: it's a premix version before final mix and mastering. A lot of others tracks are waiting to get mixed but it's the first one!

It's a lot more commercial that what I used to do but after years in post rock and indie music, we wanted something' more "people friendly".

There's the radio edit version and the full version:

Quite impatient to read you feedbacks (bad or good, it doesn't matter, just want a true review!)

I really liked the intro but I'm not massive fan of the vocals (that's just my personal preference)

The music sounded alright though - slightly MGMTish (Which I LOVE)

The overall recording is pretty good to my broken ears.

If the vocal was tripper/goofier and the lyric more of questioning ones day to day bleakness I think I'd love it!

That's just me though and my taste - I don't think this was helpful but I just wanted to give you my thoughts from my desk in this stupid office
May the circle be unbroken

I like it a lot!

Not bad at all, but the voice is buried and the lead cuts too much through the mix Needs a bit of remastering, in my humble, amateurish opinion.

thanks!

there's no mastering done, only a pre-mix (ok, a serious pre-mix, not just couple of hours...). within the next two weeks, there will be the final mix and the mastering. That's why I really appreciate your comments :)
