Set Me Free (In a Far Away Land)

[Mixinthecloud]

Hey Mixinthecloud, that's a pretty cool one! Some really nice ideas overall, and good tones. I like it.
I really like what you did with the chorus and the bgvs and the kind of call and response you've managed to build there.
I enjoyed the keys, although I would be worried about mono compatibility in a commercial mix.
The horns are big, perhaps too big? Your preset sounds good but it has removed some of the transients from this track so they sound more mellow than punchy. An artistic choice, no doubt.
I don't hate the drums, but I'm less convinced by them, the reverb sounds a bit too much for my ears, there again, it's a taste thing.
So I think overall you did a great job. I would love to hear an extended version!

The call and response was actually a cop of your vocal treatment, although yours were panned. As for the horns, I think I was channeling my inner CTA on that! And, by all means possible, please apologize to those poor monoralists as yes, they will suffer the slight loss of keyboards due to my phase reversals. I would not want to be known as an anti-monoralist in this day and age. Gosh, someone might even accuse me of being an anti-vinylist too. Heaven forbid!
