Romantic and genuine. This is the way this song would have been recorded in the 60’s (fusing Brazilian music with electronic elements). Not sure that the back ground vocals fit..the chords didn’t feel quite right for me. The chords of the electronic parts were a little “off” for me too, although I have to admit it will take a few listens to familiarize myself with the remix.
Very sophisticated and great overall vibe- thank you so much!!!

You are correct about the chord structure. They are abstract in some areas. However I feel it is an acquired taste that the ear can adjust to after a few listens. Thanks for the comment.

Seems you took a kinda long break from ccMixter — but it really paid off!

Yeah, there is a lot of stuff hitting too close to home for me to put my full concentration into music right now. Thanks for commenting.

Overall a really nice mix but as others have said a few bits and pieces that need attention (or not depending on your point of view!)

For me the guitar in the beginning was panned too hard to the right. It needed some balance on the left.
If I pan hard, to reduce the “ear fatigue” I double the track on the other channel and alter the EQ and volume so it reduces the hit of the pan but still leaves you with the effect. Anyway that’s what I do when I think it’s necessary but its all subjective again!

Good work!

This works great. Harmonically sophisticated. Very lovely guitar tone too. And the rimshot and the bass keep it ticking while all that clever floaty stuff is going on.

I thought this Jazz interpretation was refreshing. Not the usual mixes of Shannon’s stems.
