"Manovega" or "Speed of Mind"

I purchased some world sample cd's at Guitar Center and the vocals used in this song are from that collection...It was over 10 years ago I believe so I can't recall the name of the set but I love how this track came out.  I think it should be used in a global communication ad campaign. Let me know how you feel! - Shawn

     I like that vocal part, really cool beat, I like that gating trick you did with the high hat but I think it's just a tad loud. I think the 128 mp3 is causing a bit of phasing on that hh effect. I really enjoyed it

    I like it...it has a Middle Eastern meets Pop - Hip Hop feel....

    The drums are sitting a bit loud (for me) as ohgrant said....but overall it's 
    a really kewl and interesting work....nice job!

    Shawn, lately you've been coming up with some interesting bits of music, and this is one of your best!  The mix sounds very good on my speakers and in my frame of mind.  I like where you're going.

    All the best,

    I liked the vocal introduction, reminded me of Freddie Mercury and Mustapha (if you don't know the tune have a listen its off the Queen album Jazz).

    The mix is slighty overwhelming but acceptable for the type of genre, just be careful of those mids, it also feels a little a muddy.

    Nice work though, Peace Ben
