You all know how it is that I operate, right? Single mic, single afternoon, single guitar, and that's it! I may or may not have been wearing pants.

*EDIT*

OK, I lied...there was a bit of flabbiness in the mix that I edited as best I could on Day 2.

I love the bare-bones, laidback vibe here. The vocals felt a little dry, though. Some more reverb may have helped, especially on the choruses. I appreciated your extended efforts at vocal harmony following the 2-minute mark or so. Small detail: I thought the transition at 2:51 could've used a simple crash or something, just to smooth it over a bit more. Other than that, I admire the simplicity. Keep at it, man. ;)

Super clean (yet grungy) track, Ceevro. I really dig the acoustic playing (as always)! Your guitar and percussion always sit in the mix wonderfully. The solo vocals 0:00 - 1:04 also sit nicely in the mix. I think that by tinkering with your stereo image and panning the voices further left and right while keeping the main vocals centered (during the chorus) would allow you to pick out the additional vocals/harmonies that you implemented. Adjusting the volume on those harmonies might also work! The pitch-shifted vocals are a little bit jarring at times, but I think this is just a preference thing on my part.

Another solid track, my friend -- can't wait to hear more! :)

Ceevro responds:

I don't think it's a preference...I think the pitch-shifting is just jarring...but I had to do it to differentiate the vocals. Perhaps I should just bite the bullet and either try falsetto or call in another singer!
