My Feedback

Music - 10
Instruments - 9
Performance - 9.5
Mix 9.5

Overall - 9.5

Comments: Love the vocal samples on this and the EWQL choirs. Mix is just a tad muddy in spots. Not sure if bass or something else. Otherwise, off the charts fantastic stuff. One of the best tracks I've heard on this sub forum.

To me, this has a lot in common with like...90s big beat and trip hop music, which I love.

My only complaint is that the vocals and brass are a tad too fake-sounding for my tastes. Though it's been my experience that orchestral brass libraries are really tricky to use in a "soul" sort of setting like what you've got here. Lovin' the organ btw

One day I'll buy session horns. Probably...maybe.

i'm a sucker for '70's fusion , and i love this endeavor ...

imo , this track needs some (re) arrangement :
you need to create some space ; not everything needs to be playing at the same time ...
this will allow you greater control of the mix ...

for me , a case in point is around the 3.00 mark , where you introduce the solo trumpet ;
i'd drop out everything but the bass , and the trumpet w/ that excellent echo you're using ,
and pull the drums back in as the trumpet builds ...
there are a few other places where the same principle could be applied ...

didn't care for the choir , but that's me ...

an enjoyable listen ...
