Thanks, Sal. Guess it does sound somewhat like a power ballad.

Im feeling, to top this off:

It will close the gap in contrast.

Don’t mind at all. Suggestions always welcome. Yes, the vocal needs work. Haven’t gotten around to that yet. There are few vocal glitches to address which are more immediate problems than reverb.

The first order of business would be convert a flac copy of the Emily’s pell to wav. Then do some vocal integration and mastering which may include reverb. My flac to wav converter quit working. For now, I used the 128 kps MP3 pell and left vocal integration to another day.

First thing is to look into my flac to wav converter problem “:0|

Funny you should mention the flack issue- I needing to convert as well, have half the solution to help you —lol

VLZ Media Player (free-just google it) plays them fine, and, almost certian it converts—-
VLC’s options for converting are a bit confusing and after an hour gave up—— maybe you’ll have better luck——-
FYI: VLC is a serious program with hundreds of options for professional audio and video media.

wavepad Sound Editor ( free download, just click to change format ) is very good, too.

Thanks, Emily. The bass stem sounds like a good sample of an upright bass. unreal_dm is the author of the stem.

When something sounds already good and even getting better, you must be involved. Bravo!

I am still in catching-up mode. And just like I already said to Speck, listening to your latest remixes back to back puts them into a different context. Listening this way makes it even more evident how good you are. Very nice!

Thanks for taking the time to listen to the last 10 remixes, Sub. Appreciate ya.

Nice blog. Interesting use of Internet Archive to maintain a catalog. Need to think about that.

My own website didn’t have enough space to harbour it all and this way I could also upload it in CD-quality wave format.
