Almost passed this one, not a big Doors fan.   I like what you have done with it.     I'm sure JM would approve....a very orignal take...
 
Regards

thanks Mark. I really respect your engineering/mixing skills, and musicianship, so that means a lot. appreciate the listen very much :)

Man that's great..... very original.

Is it my system, if it is I'm worried, but it seems very left hand speaker heavy??



hey thanks for pointing this out STinGA - it's an issue i have often as i have a hearing deficit in my left ear.  Lynn pointed that out too on 'Helicopter Head' 

in this case, i've now re-listened a few times, also on headphones with them reversed on opposite ear.  it's not as apparent on my VUs but there is a left heaviness i think; the vox is right centered, and there is some guitar doodling panned right ( i also wanted to leave some headroom on right to hear the Jim Morrison's "the blue bus" vocal sample that floats around, but the heavy distortion guitar chordal rhythm pocket may be overtaking things left-pan-ly a bit. i also have a heavy gated digital pingpong pan delay L-R oscillation on another guitar that balances the mix more in speakers, but in headphones i think i can see what you are hearing.

Nice job, your version sounds good
btw. I also have a hearing deficit in my left ear.. I've adjusted  my monitor speakers volume to balance by  listening  some mono sounds with  different frequencies. That helps me to listen to mix-work

  You are tapped into something good here. I have never been a big Doors fan but I like what you did with this.

thanks dude- i tried to offer a completely different interpretation. i don't usually produce dance music but this was a fun little side project and technique exercise

cool/ thanks Makke- I do the mono trick too sometimes but in this case there is a lot of stereo imaging and fx so i was winging it a bit in terms of my left ear deficit. i don't think it's that egregious but it's noticeable now to me when i reverse earbuds. Morrison was kinda lopsided as is myself so maybe it's all good ;p

Enjoyed this as well as the others in your sound cloud stream. I find your style refreshing and unique and can hear the production techniques improving with each song you post.
