Thank you everyone!
Markno..I layered in a very blended guitar part that complements the synth...I only did this after seeing a video on playing the guitar. I didn't even know it was there...
As for reverb, I tried to stay away from that 80's Gated drum sound. Sadly I don't have any drum software that sounds as big and loud as Phil Collins'.
Recording digitally, as opposed to tape, IMO leaves a lot of sonic space open to fill. That's the trade off when covering the big sounds on the older recordings. I think today's producers are using compression to beef things up...thoughts?
