Nice song, Vicente.  Psalms and Revelations mean a lot of different things to different people.  I don't understand either one very well.  I understand this music and like it a lot!

It's good to hear from you again Vincente!  This is a nice song and I appreciate the words. 

I think the vocals are a little hard to understand for some reason.  But your singing is great.  

Well played and nice arrangement!

  It sounds to me that the drums are panned way out to the sides and may still be masking the guitars just a bit.   

xactly. center the drums some more to support it from the middle and not bookended -  this is a strong song & your passion for your music is clearly evident. nice.

Janet - Thanks for listening. I have the same comment to myself. Singing and getting the words come out clear was very difficult. I think there are trick and techniques to do that. I will do a search for it.
ABeautifulVirus - Thanks for listening also. I just put out a new version to tame the drums a bit.
Warren - Thanks for liking the song.

The drums sound to wide to me too.  Not really my subject mater.

Thanks for sharing.

Love the mix of the Indie sound and the message.
I like your voice Vicente but agree that you could use some harmonies to help support the chorus melody.

Vicente,
 
Nice one, good song, good performance.   Minor tweaks needed on the mix, as mentioned, but very good nonetheless.
 
I know that trip to China well, long, killer flight and jet-lag;(   Glad you have some time to make some music.
Regards

I like it... the instruments sound good as does the vox. 

Psalms have a lot of emotions and feelings going on from sad to happy to fulfilled to desperate to beaten down to victorious. I like the ones that talk about music and love. Remember, they were songs.

i like the asian sensibility to the melody, and certain harmony elements....
i do not know what your 'nationality' link is, but i really like the note choices, that to my ears, sound like a very natural thing to you....

mix:
the drums, just sound like they are way down at the end of a long high school hallway, and seem completely disconnected from the vocal, because of the mix treatment.

i think you should mix the drums dry.
or at least, mostly dry.

get the kick really nice, and then blend your voice (only) to sit right on top of the drums, as if there is no music at all.

then, bring all the music back in...
just enough to fill it up.

that's just me, that's the way I hear it...... so please ignore, or, better yet, just try the experiment, and see what happens.


i like this song.
