Recalling some of your earlier pieces this feels very differently. Partly of
course because there are real voices in there. :)
I found the asian theme in the beginning very airy and nice. As someone else
noted it changes to something else when the vocals come in, quite nice but
the vocals could be processed further.
I think the lead lacks some presence, possibly just bring it closer in the
mix, or increase high mid (or something).
I wanted to make the lead sound a bit distant, as the basic idea behind it
is a sirene ala Odysseus, allthough not all seductive, but a bit obnoxious.
Didn't think about her origin ... dang now I drew an european girl for
the cover ;)
At times there is some low frequency synth sound in
the background that
competes with the voices (or is it a voice?), it grows a little muddy over
that period.
It's noise through low-pass filter with resonance and the pitch for cutoff.
It's meant to be something between whistling wind and male humming choir,
a backdrop to give the lead context. It shouldn't compete, so I might look at
this again.
As I said, very well produced, so my comments are
therefore of the nitpicking
kind. Or as a friend always says; I compare everything with the sun. ;)
Heh, thank you, thank you :)
Oh, one last question. The drumming, is that an Om
patch??
2, kick and a snap/snare thing.
They might resurface as Ingen examples or perhaps in Smack.
