It seems the vocal is a bit out front.   Maybe not.  No effects makes it kinda cool.  It is straight, right?  The thing is that it's a fun song to listen to.

Hey, evadianepug! I did honestly pop a little PEQ and Tempo Delay, but ultimately this was such a clean track that I thought the cleaner vocals sounds a bit better.

NOTE: THE OLD VERSION IS NOW PRIVATE ON MY SOUNDCLOUD PAGE, THERE IS NO ACCESS TO IT! The new link will be available soon!
(btw, the new recording and mix was all done today within about 4hrs.)

Clean is good, it just seemed to pop way out in front on my monitors.

Bit more than it should, you're saying? Or just enough? I do know that the song seems it'd get a whipping on a high-bass system.

Well, I'm on some pretty good monitors and the bass didn't catch my attention in a bad way.  I guess you could take the vocal back just a bit and see what you think. Yes, I thought they were a bit too loud..  I'll look for the new mix.

good job mate. Love the backing vocals.
Did you 'play' the drums on this one?

Thanks, GH. I honestly didn't think about singing closer to my natural range until you guys mentioned it.

Thanks for coming, daryl. The backing vocals were almost a spur-of-the-moment thing to fill the void (in the original, of course).
Yup, the drum tracks was all done with my keyb and ShortCircuit2, one of my favorite VSTis.... Right up there next to DreamStation, Superwave P8, and a coupla others.

I like the song. It has a very nice melody. I would bring the vocals up a bit.
