In Between Waking and Dreaming

New song. I may redo the vocals, but otherwise it's pretty much finished.

    Cool effort. For me the drums stand out here, they seem pretty darn real and are very well played. Bass does its job nicely. Have you considered "doubling" the vocals? You have mixed the guitars well, they are panned perfectly I think.
     
    Would like to hear where this one goes!

    Mix sounds reasonable here, the Vox needs a little something perhaps as suggested above or additional harmonies.

    Thanks... drums were done with Superior Drummer. I used to do vocal doubling years ago when I first started
    recording, but I never liked the sound of that.  
    I don't do many harmony vocals. I've tried, but for the stuff I've been recording in the last while,I prefer the sound of just one well done vocal. Having said that, the vocal needs a little work - phrasing of some bits I'm not quite satisfied with, as well as a flat note of two...

    I think you're right, except for the vocal, this could be a keeper.  I'd turn the lead vox up a bit, and either give it a slight boost @ 3k or a slight cut at 250-300 hz.  I do like the concept of "between waking and dreaming".

    All the best,
    Lynn

    Really like the guitars on this one - really nice tone and style.  Cool tune. 
     
    The vocals do sound a bit distant when compared to the guitars, partly due to reverb but also the hi-end as Lynn mentioned.
