Here it is.

I'm learning Logic Pro, and so did this as a test. Excuse my voice as I'm not the greatest singer. I've added a new riff and choir and I think it sounds OK.

Not bad. I had to put my mix to your song. I began to work on it, but couldn't finish.

at least you didn't try to sound like Neil. when doing PSB covers, i've noticed quite a few out there that actually try and sound like him(and fail). Neil has a unique voice and if someone were to do even a spot on impression, i still wouldn't like it.

Intro is too long, quite good once it gets going, outro is good.

I enjoyed that, your singing was fine, loved the outro

That's quite nice, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the comments guys, means a lot
Parkol I'm happy to send you any files if you want to play?
I plan to do some more eventually.

Have to agree that the intro is a lil' long... otherwise, good cover, transforce!

Sounds a little bit good. Not bad.

The way through the woods (Classical mix)

Here is another attempt at a PSB track, this time Neil is doing the vocals.

levels are all wrong mate...sorry...

It's interesting. You really need to put the vocal into music, not over the arrangement, but right into mix. You have the same things on your previous tracks. Maybe you should watch some tutorials about mastering. There are a lot on YouTube. And add the reverberation very carefully, sometimes it sounds like all instruments sounds from different corners.

Thanks Parkol. Yes I am watching Logic mastering tutorials at the moment. I need a producer LOL.

Best way to learn is by trying and getting feedback... I had a hard time taking the feedback (that wasn't positive) but I soon realized that it's better to get trashed then have a bunch of people saying "great" just to be kind (never ask your mother ). That's the way to progress and getting better.

Yes, nice to get an honest opinion. It's great when anyone genuinely likes something you do. I used to get the opposite too from my ex-wife who was disinterested about everything to do with my music. When I was contacted by a record company about releasing a song it was like "Oh that's nice, shall we go shopping now?" and then she never asked anything about it again until it was released, and then that was "Have WE made any money" LOL!
