Excellent production, songwriting, performances, and the whole 9 yards! The song style is a little unconventional, but it sounds "radio ready", as they say. Great job.

In the first half of the song it is hard to hear the guitar on the right side. The vocals are a bit loud for the instrumentation. I would try and balance things out a bit. Left side is good, so right side and vocals need just a bit of tweaking IMO. Other than that, very nicely done.
Peace and Blessings, John

I like the song and lead vocal sound. I'd double the arpeggio clean guitar on the right and put it on the left. Add sound mid-highs to the snare. Bass should come up a notch. Nicely done.

Hey JOhn Yeah the singer just got back to me with the same crit,the vocals are loud compared to the mix,so I need to lower them. The balance I struggled with for the electric guitar on the right,but I hear what you're saying,the part could be more prominent. I'll have another go at it soon ! Thanks for the pointers,I appreciate it, Kev

Hey Rimshot
Thats a great idea for doubling the electric,it should defo bring the part out more. For the snare,mid-highs ? Yeah I see where you're coming from with that - I layered the snare 3 times,with a low,mid and high snare.It might that the low snare is overpowering the other samples.It does sound quite dark at the moment.For the bass yep,I compared it to a reference track the other night and it did seem a bit lacking in bottom end.Man,more work to be done !!!!!!! Still,thanks for the pointers,its good to know what people with fresh ears are hearing :)
Thanks
Kev
