Hey zuga1974!
I agree with Dan, think the song has good potential - I like how the song opens, the tempo changes, guitar leads are great and fitting the tune.
As far as vox go, from what I can hear they sound fine & I completely understand wanting to bury them more in the mix when you don’t feel confident in them; however, push the main vox up for sure and I do like those background additions- you can wait for your dream singer later. No idea what you’re singing but the quality of your voice and styling gives me a real Mark Knopfler vibe.
Timing issues really stand out, unfortunately, so if there’s consistent latency for the played instruments vs drum track, maybe certain the regions can be shifted in your DAW or you could flex time to get the song more in the “pocket”, barring that, maybe need to get as low latency as you can and re-record. With that, the song would be more driving and satisfying.
Anyhow, was well worth the listen so thanks for sharing!
Michael
