Whoa… I’m completely carried away with this… you did some magic, Key. The bridge steps it up even farther… This is impressive. Thank you so much for using our song… I like that description… dark chill.

p.s. What plugin did you use for the vocal chorus… vocoder? It sounds so familiar, but I can’t pinpoint it.

Hi Kara, I am so glad you like the outcome. Very inspiring song and pella you have shared with us.

The plugin is a vocoder (The Mouth) which I have used for the first time ever in a remix.
Triggered the tunings with a midi line.

Yes! This is the exact plugin I thought you used. I’ve used it at my TSAN bandmate’s place. Thanks.

This oozes style, Key, and the cool, deceptively minimal backing track works superbly well with Kara’s movingly bleak song. It’s classy and I love it!

Jeris, thanks a lot for your review. I had soo many ideas here that it was hard to decide what to throw away to make it not overloaded. your review made me think to have found the right balance.

Moody and dark, but with a touch of lightness and delicacy, with the toy piano sounds, and brush drums.

Dear Admiral, honestly I have to admit that this is the first time that I am really happy with the drum setup. Drums/Perks are most challenging for me…..you mentioning the drums in your feedback is very much appreciated!

Thx

Nice combination of instruments and plug-in fx to give this great mix a real touch of class. Great build that works like a wonderful howling wind over moors. Super feel to this Key mate
