#15 Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - Deliza - 07-08-2018 Got stuck halfway between what’s possible with such a minimalistic recording and what I was aiming at. It won’t make sense to anyone, but I kinda imagined a blend of Feist and Blur for this one and referenced tracks by them that had nothing to do with this tune, so go figure. After replacing the kick, I edited a copy and used it to trigger some noise, then replaced the rimshot with some claps. Btw, when I opened the zip file, I found both backing vocals tracks where the same, so I didn’t have the one that sings the harmony during the choruses, weird! The final wheel is lovely and reminds me of Sufjan Stevens, I only wish I could have muted the little cymbal but it was bleeding on every track. So what do you think? Thanks for any feedback! RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - KMuzic - 09-08-2018 Hi Deliza Listened to it on Monitors, Headphones and TV speakers Sounds cool. Awesome levels Balance is a bit Right channel heavy in spots, the lower strings on the acoustic really shift the focus to the right, especially with the bone horns track during the trumpet solos. The Trumpet alone just cant balance it out on the Left, seems to need something over there with it or maybe make a cut on the low mids on the acoustic or move it to 40 or 50% R, it sounds hard R Vocal sounds great! Also love the we will rock you You got a nice dryer sound which is easy to listen to. Good Job! Cheers K RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - Deliza - 09-08-2018 Someone caught the joke! It's good to know it translates, though it's true I never was too sure about panning that hard the guitar. Maybe I should have swapped positions between bone and trumpet. Thanks, K! RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - HbGuitar - 15-01-2019 Ha Ha.....nice Queen homage. Very inventive approach. Everything seems to balance and is controlled nicely. certainly a fun listen. Good job. Cheers RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - Deliza - 15-01-2019 Thanks, Hb! RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - SpaceBuzz - 16-03-2019 Very cool, creative mix! I love it! RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - Roy - 16-03-2019 Did you reference "Country House"? The tempo kinda fits. I like the creativeness of the mix but it might be a harsh. RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - Deliza - 16-03-2019 Yep, guitar and trombone reminded me of "Country House", but I referenced "Tender" for the atmosphere. RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - Roy - 16-03-2019 Nailed it. My ear isn't as terrible as people think. Ha. I need to listen again to see if I get the "Tender" vibe... RE: Carousel Ride - Kickin’ your can all over the place - Deliza - 16-03-2019 Good ears, indeed! It took me LONG to realize it was the Country House connection that attracted to this tune, easily after finishing the mix. |
