I absolutely adore this mix. The best take on this pella for me so far.

My only production itch is that the vocals are heavily delayed left and right and the delicacy of the vocal gets lost in the great production.

As its a classic song setting some central position for them would work better.

But one of your best spin , you never said you could play guitar ?. :-) LS

What I like about this is the “live” feeling you have created but LS is right that vox treatment is a real no! no! I listened on headphones and I started to get sea sick (and I’m on land!!)

I’d redo this as it spoils a really nice mix.

I can second LS and as well RT and this is what TJ is thinking about it else: Beautiful guitar and bass playin. Especially these two elements give the track a very authentic mood. This is a great performance.
You don_t have to hide these skills behind a huge arrangement. I can also imagine it as a guitar plus piano and bass version.
So I would say, your very “unplugged” version is only a few mouseclicks away :-).
Despite of this, I can second only LS, so far as I know the best version heard here.

There’s a very charming naive quality to this that really suits the song (hope that doesn’t sound patronising, it’s meant as a compliment!)

I do have to admit that I didn’t feel the beat/feel at first, it was a little jarring because it was so unexpected. But when the accordion (sp?) started it fell into place and made perfect sense.

And, yea, I agree with others, feel free to lose the strings. They sound ok as long as they are buried but when they poke out to the front they sound synthy - something I more guilty than anybody but worth saying. Don’t worry about the playing, it’s fine - In my version of this pell you can hear the guitar hit the mic ferkrissake lol

I agree with old Dog’s comment. It was nice to hear a song that was clearly intended to be lovely…I really enjoyed it. Thanks for the listen.

Great feeling to this remix! Nice work with the bass and guitar and the drums are eq’d perfectly.

Wow Spin—I got this big grin on my face when I heard your guitar playing—such a nice suprise. This all works really well, the piano, bass, accordian all so nicely placed.
A great conversation going here as well, I would have liked to hear the two previous uploads to see how it developed. Well done Sir.

What an enchanting mix. Lots has been said and all the positives I agree with and the negatives seem to have been rectified in the ears of some, which alone is astounding, talk about instant gratification :-).

One thing I was thinking was that your choice of instrumental voices has managed to tap into the spanish lyrics with references to Spanish speaking cultures, right down to the Andean pipes (were they? - tell me they were real too :-) - they were nicely processed with a real open airy decay).

Another thing that I think really shines here is the musical and emotional build-up as the song progresses. Dropping the strings brought it down a little from the stratospheric heights it was reaching, but that’s probably a good thing (although I was getting swept away by those harmonies).

Yup this one’s a keeper alright. But I do agree with some of the others that if possible, for the education and edification of us folks who still need to learn a lot, it would be great to have the full evolution. Unfortunately I was at work today so couldn’t download the earlier ones fast enough.

What can i say more!
I m’here drinking my coffee enjoying the sunshine and listening to this beautiful mix!
More please!

Hahah - this is a treat and a half.
I agree that the track really comes into its right when the accordion enters - it’s a beautiful element to tie it all together.
Beautifully done.

A cheerful version for a wounded heart, I love the variations in the tone that you did to my voice and the choir was super!
Thousand thanks!

Simply Marvelous !!!!!!

Sorry I’m late to this one Spin! You really did a nice job and it’s quite entertaining. : )
