Very cosy music!
I'd like to advise you to follow Q's advice, but make an exception on
the snare+bassdrum and the bassguitar.
I think the vocal level is good, but perhaps i would think different if
i understood what he says (beautyfull language btw)
Thanks for the music! Feel free to ad my email to any release anouncment
list.

What were you thinking I could cut low-mids from?

HI Everyone,
Here is a song I recorded with a friend of mine who is a Nepalese
singer, and one of his friends who played the guitar and bass
on the
track. It has taken me ages to get round to finishing it,
because I was
having real troubles coming up with some drums that fitted the
song OK.
This is the current version, mixed in Mixbus. I would
appreciate any
thoughts on the song, and also the mix.

Hi
Just had a listen to this and it sounds pretty nice as it stands.
You could probably clear out the low mids a little to improve
clarity, but don't overdo it or you'll lose too much warmth.
The vocal drops in and out a bit, especially early on (I think it's
probably the lower register bits that are most affected). I guess
it'd probably be better to automate the volume rather than compress,
although some light compression mightn't go astray. The guitar has a
tendency to overpower the vocal as well, but it might be okay once
the vocal level is higher, but if not, maybe EQ the guitar a bit to
reduce the clash.
The main guitar solo (from 3.10) needs to be more upfront I'd say,
lose a lot of the reverb and it'd be a lot better. Perhaps use some
delay to make it big without pushing it into the background like the
reverb's doing. It's a bit thin sounding as well and the level a bit
inconsistent.
It's a pleasant sounding piece, nice and mellow. Nice playing and
the singer's got a good voice. However, with not being able to infer
any emotional intensity from the vocals, it all sounds a bit flat,
on the same level -- the piece could do with some contour to it, a
sense of building and releasing in the music.
