You and I - balladish

Hi this is song #8 on my album and here I have help from Per on the drums and on the disco-strings - I have discussed the timing of those but he say that it should be like this and who am I compared to the best drummer in Sweden;-) Any thoughts are welcome. http://soundcloud.com/egon1/youandi

This is a good song swimming in a pool of f/x.  I would love to hear a warmer, more intimate vocal because you have a good voice that may not need so much dressing.  There's a pearl in there somewhere.

Very cool tune, but I must agree with the above crits... keep at it...

Straining to hear the drums. The kick is hard to detect. I suspect that the kick and the bass is sharing the same fundamental frequencies. The song itself is good and your voice fits it great. the guitar solos are nice too. near the end I found the guitar solos a little hard to hear. aside from a few mixing fixes it sounds like you got another great song here Eko

Lynn: This is a good song swimming in a pool of f/x. I would love to hear a warmer, more intimate vocal because you have a good voice that may not need so much dressing. There's a pearl in there somewhere. Thnx Lynn it is a great deal of fx on this and a cleaning up seems to be in order. As always good advice Lynn thnx/eko

notnat: Very cool tune, but I must agree with the above crits... keep at it... I will certainly try do that Thnx for your comment./eko

I'm hearing some timing anomalies in the continuity between the bass and drums/beat. Specifically, the bass is slightly off time (cardinal sin, I'm a bass player)

And it feels like different instruments are recorded in different places? Not sure how to recommend how to fix that as I struggle with the mixing personally. It's probably a reverb thing. The lead guitar is buried in the mix.

I liked the song, but struggled to understand the singer (sounds a little muddy) I think this is mainly the verb, but could also benefit from some EQing.

Well I am a bass owner and that don't make me a bass player so you are probably right. The strings was meant to come and go but they might be a little to hut in entry, The lead was also meant to be just buried in the song right or wrong what do I know - anyway you got me new perspectives thnx for that The Band 19

I did not actually read your text until after I listened. My first impression was the drums seemed a little generic. My second was the bass tone was muddy and boomy. Third was the guitars seemed a tad washed out. I don't mean to be harsh, but I think a bit more work is needed on this one.

Thnx foxwolfen for the listening and your suggestions I will pass on the drum thoughts to Per and the rest I have to work with
