Jeff Roberts<\/a><\/p>\nPositive Comments: <\/b>There are good bones in this song that aren’t living in the recorded version yet–there’s a big dramatic song that I can “hear” that would be so nice to get into the mix. “Still exists with an open heart” is a great moment here where the lyrics, melody and phrasing come together. I think this is Chet, in fact I know it’s Chet b\/c that’s his voice!<\/p>\n
Constructive Comments: <\/b>The organ and keys are way behind the beat–midi latency is probably to blame. On the organ I’d go for just chord fills rather than busy parts–just pad out the sound with organ. The keys have got to be fixed. You might be able to grab the whole track and bump it forward b\/c I think it’s just latency rather than the playing. The main changes are solid–hearing them big, solid and right smack on the beat will make a huge difference. I think the jangle guitar works against the tune a bit –maybe capo for a much higher tone and more ring\/sustain and lower it in the mix.The vocals sound too dry and there’s a room slapback that you hear. I’d roll off the <100K bass on the vocal add some gentle reverb, stay close to the mic so you don't hear the room so much.On the \"can't get back\" section --the phrasing is really nice but it's not supported by the backing--it's at cross purposes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
