Greetings all.
I was inspired by the latest Distant Towers track to write something pop-y as an homage to their unique sound and style. But, of course, it's their type of track if it went through the Factory Yoyo grinder and was extruded out a somewhat sleazy pop tune.
A fairly quick one for me. As I get older, it takes longer and longer to push these puppies across the finish line.

Hello James, I hope you are doing well?
I enjoyed hearing this one very much. It has an 80's kinda vibe to it in my opinion. It reminded me of movie opening songs "WHICH I LIKE TO HEAR". I couldn't help but think of some 80's movies listening to this. Probably wasn't your intention, but it takes a heck of a lot of talent to orchestrate something this good.
Thanks for sharing! I'm no critic or master mixer so the mix sounded perfect to me, although it would be nice to hear some screaming guitar lead in there every now and then.

James,
Really well done track, and the mix is fantastic. I, personally, would have pushed the kick up a hair, but there is so much delicious stuff in the mix that I really don't care, lol.
Regards,
Dan

You "nailed" the genre!
Dan's right, push the kick fader up a bit.

Nice... It does have a DT vibe, particularly the vocals. And maybe just a touch of Daryl too. Cool piece of off-kilter pop rock, and the mix is
really
good.

great genre-specif synths,
that sometimes get to sounding very modern.
dig the groove
don't know if i totally dig the vocal effect,
sometimes it makes it hard to make the word out,
i'd like to hear it come and go,
maybe only on the chorus......
