nickbrainard - symbiote [ft. tina sardo]
« on: January 07, 2016, 11:40:34 am »
This is my first track to feature my talented girlfriend, Tina. I released the instrumental around a year ago, and it has been one of my favorites, but now this track means so much more to me. I still need to adjust a few things, though. Would love to hear some feedback regardless!  :)

I really like the track.  Unfortunately I don´t think the vocals are adding to it.  I found it hard to figure out the lyrics, and what I did catch made no sense. I don´t know if it takes away from the song if the title is not in the lyrics, as it´s really hard to make something that makes good sense around the word symbiote IMHO.  The vocals needs to be more in front, so you should probably duck the volume of the lead(s) a couple dB.

I too really like the track, so very chilled! Re the vocals, I can see what ion means in regard to not being able to make out the lyrics, but it doesn't detract too much from the song imo. Just adds a mystical air to it ;) The style of vocal definitely fits.

Thanks for the feedback! I was thinking I should bring down the chords during the vocals, too. I think I blended the vocals and lead too much, given I know the lyrics, I didn't notice at first.  :P
