Default Chazamatazz: Marriage Of The Soul

I got really deppressed about this one. When I had finished. Because there was all these double verses double choruses, double interludes,and I went and edited out all these double sections.and it worked! Usually editing masters is not cool for me, but it was seemless this time,and it gave me back some confidence for the song. Then i made the fade quicker and that helped too.This standalone is limited, I guess, and I'll probably finally ditch it for the computer set up but I sure got some use out of it. Marriage Of The Soul is not a NEW song of mine, the old version was pretty sparse and the drums were really light but not pro sounding.These aren't either but until this studio area increases exponentially and my wallet, no live drums for Charlie. Well maybe I shouldn't have gone on- this thing will probably get bashed all over the place so I'll leave. Enjoy, if you do.

Great song! I like it. I like your voice but I would use less echo ( sounds like echo to my untrained ears ) when it's just you. Maybe fade in the echo a little more just before the harmonies, which I like a lot. I would love to put a live drum track on it. It's up my alley.

Agreed - great song! Your voice is good and the harmonies are tight. Instrumentation supports the vocal nicely. The delay (echo) on the vocal is a little distracting at its current volume level, so maybe dialing it back a bit or changing the timing to correspond more with the tempo of the song would help that out. But that's a fairly minor nitpick. In general, this sounds good to my ears!

(Yes, live drums are great but I definitely hear you on the wallet aspect... )

Its tough cause I mixed it down, then gauged out large sections of the song. so its not possible to change the echo on the voice.unless i edit out all that extra time. maybe i will, hope its accurate as easily as it was to do this.
