      Damn dude, that's just great. I don't know the original tune yet so the voc seems to fit perfectly to me. Fantastic, authentic stuff.

        3 thumbs up for creativity! I'm sure that took some work!

              This is my first entry as an Academy member with PLAP. I am proud to be here and I am looking forward to learning from you all. I didn't have access to a guitar here at home so this is all keyboard samples and patches, mostly off of Studio One.

                Gary, that is a really cool mix -- very different than what I heard in my head in the original track (I'm a "string band" kind of musician). Thanks very much for sharing it!

                  Johannes,

                  I really like the way your drums shift the feel of the song into a "one" feel (vs. the original 6/8 "two" feel). The cello / viola sounds in the bridge are excellent as well.

                  Tres.

                    Bruce,

                    This is a cool take on the song. One tweak: I would lay out on one or two of the add-ons in the intro (chimes, birdsong, reverse cymbal).

                    The guitar solo in the interlude is cool, but I would go for a "darker" tone there.

                    Tres.

                      Christophe,

                      That was an excellent mix. I would ditch the "telephonic" echo / delay at 2:39 ff: it doesn't add to the song at all.

                      Tres.

                        Wow!

                        - The B3 is superb throughout.

                        - The horn stabs on the 4 in the second verse are inspired.

                        - The horns seem a little busy in the "transition" points: they trick my ear into expecting a different resolution than the one which follows, in a not-very-pleasing way.

                        I really enjoyed this mix overall.

                        Tres.

                          Ricardo,

                          I like the mix overall, very much. The distortion on the "wide" guitars seems slightly over the top: my ears wanted to hear a warmer tone from them.

                          Tres.

                            Travis,

                            That is an excellent re-imagining of the song: stretching it that far yields some cracks, but one cannot but honor the vision / effort.

                            Tres.
