This is awesome, The electronic beat goes nice with the ambiance. I can see this being in a movie soundtrack.

Thanks Morgantj ! I must have done something right if you can imagine it being a soundtrack :-)

I like this very much as well. I can not tell if this is intentional, but the track balance seems off - like it was mixed relatively loud?

Happy that you like it vo1k1!
I’m not sure I know what you mean with ‘the track balance being off’. I re-checked it visually but I don’t sea (or hear) it. Mixed it on headphones as well as good monitors. Not too loud… By the way congratulations with your editor’s pick :-) |

Thanks for getting back on the subject, now I understand what you meant. Percussion may be a bit loud indeed, but I think it was more a matter of taste than intention ;-)
Thanks for listening again and making nice comments ! |

This gentle, melodic electronica accompaniment, with its well-defined yet somehow delicate beat, works very well with the Kristin Hersh ‘pella. The sense of calm energy sets off against the lyrics, giving the song a sense of assured “build” to a quiet conclusion. A really effective remix. Thank you for including my humble groundling drone sample in such an Olympus of sounds and voices.

Good job, very nice mix.
For me (and just to be constructive), I feel the voice too far in the mix. And I think it had been better with a glissando of the sequence at the end (from A to G Iguess). -Sorry for my English : I’m French- Anyway, everything works together and give a nice mood. Congratulations ! |

Welcome aboard, Le_Did and thanks for your comment. You maybe right about the vocal-level. I found it difficult to lift it up, because I was not 100% satisfied about the timing :-( Kristin has a beautiful poetic timing but it’s not easy to match it with such a tight beat.
- Don’t mind your English; I’m Dutch ;-) As long as we understand eachother ! |

Good combination of sounds! I like to whole mix but agree with Le_Did it would be interesting to hear the vocals to be more present in the mix.
