"Let's Go"

It's been a while since I posted a new song here. This one is about new romance with a country/folk feel.

Hi Lynn.  Thanks so much for the listen. 
The bass is actually a sample loop of an upright with chorus on it. I only cut the very bottom off around 30Hz and left the rest alone.  
In fact, the fiddle, acoustic, bass, and synth bell part were all samples! I had fun using them. I normally don't use sample loops like that but hey, it's 2015!

Thank you Phil! It's great that you liked it. I struggled a bit with the lead vocal and finished the mix thinking it was too loud! A smidge might be .5 db at the most?

Thanks much yorolpal for the nice words. Not shy and I will let this sit for a day or two and then see where those vocals and drums sit once I get away from it. 3 day weekend coming up! Thanks again for your feedback. 

Thank you Tom. Looks like vocals up! Will note the bass part but I really grew to like the one I used for this song because it is different. I might try a live bass on it to see the difference. 
And thanks for the nice comments on the song - it puts a smile on my face.

A good bass player could have a field day on this one.

Leaves me out.

excellent Jimmy - I really like this and it sounds totally current - up the vocals a gnat's whisker and it's radio ready IMO

Thanks Daryl! I like that it sounds "current". Check on the vocals. Would a gnat's whisker be .25db maybe?
:)
 

Great feel Jimmy. I did not think anything was wrong with the bass (considering it was samples). Yeah, the vox could come up just a tad.

Ed: Thanks for the listen!
 
Mark: Glad  you liked it and thanks for commenting!

Much thanks Freddy, I appreciate the listen.

As Lynn says, very infectious. I thought in most spots the mix was spot on. Maybe a fader ride on the vocals and drums just to give them that tweak at the times they need them. Just a suggestion, I like it the way it is though too.

Howdy rebel007. Thanks much for your kind words. I like the idea of fader rides and was going to do that to the lead vocal but now will consider for the drums as well. Good one! 
Whatever I do, I don't think I want to change much at all to this original. It just works on all my test systems.  Even the level of the lead vocal seems right on low volume, iPad and and cell phone using Apple earphones. Even the sibylance jumps out at me so I am not really sure if I will improve the presentation with adjusting it too much. I thing we are talking micro moves here!  
I love the feedback though because sometimes it is so hard to tell what is really going on until you guys chime in with your helpful comments. 
 
Thanks again!

Great piece!
 
I would also bring the vocals a little more to the forefront.
