Very very cool concept, and artfully executed. My one suggestion would be that the background sounds were at times overpowering the vocal. I would have lowered the levels on them occasionally to let the vocal perhaps stand on its own or just be with the drums. I am of the opinion that use of silences is as important if not more so than the use of sound.
By my complaint, if you want to call it that is minimal with this, The concept of mixing in the sound of the delta with the sound of the jungle is really neat and I hope you’ll consider doing that again maybe without this vocal but instead with something else. |

I’m a huge believer in the use of silence—and I think that if there were an ambient rulebook, the primacy of silence as the key instrument of music would be somewhere in the commandments and commendments. I try to leave a lot of space in a lot of things, and so my problem with this mix is the same one you mention—it’s just too noisy, and it doesn’t allow the samples to just breathe. If I were revising this, I’d bring the levels of the field recordings down in places, and also vary the levels a bit.
I like your suggestion—it’s a good idea. thanks for the constructive criticism, and for the review. |
