Hi everyone, here's the second single from the album I'm working on which will hopefully be complete in a few months, trying to emulate the sounds of many of my fave synthpop bands from the 80s. Most of the synth sounds are from Synth1. I have quite a few paid synths but nearly always end up just using the quickest and lightest

it's also only the second time I've recorded vocals myself seeing as the first time was deemed acceptable by listeners

thank goodness for pitch correction and effects

hey thanks, yes I like the artwork too, I think it really attracts listeners. I can't take credit for it unfortunately but it's licensed from an illustrator.

Was good. Nice vibe to it. Vocals getting a bit lost in the mix sometimes, but overall an enjoyable vibe and pleasurable to listen to.

thanks glad you liked it. Yes you're right about the vocals. They are my weak point so I have to bury them in the mix a bit and obscure them with effects

Love it, it's 80s night here, I'm pretty drunk and this does it for me!

Wow, very nice track, like it a lot! The bass almost sounds like a piano is layered underneath it? Nice production, too! Followed on bandcamp!

Best regards!

I like it, your vocals are not that bad either but they are a bit to silent I think...

I really liked this song too. Sounding very 80s. I also think your vocals aint that bad. Good enough by far.
