Original Christmas Song - Whatcha think?

[leadsynth]

Hey guys,

I'm working on a Christmas song. Probably too late to submit to any Christmas opportunities this year, but there's always next year!

Here is "Let's Give Love (This Christmas)"

Thoughts?

Hey Maya, something's wrong with your link. Could you double-check and repost? I'd love to listen to some Christmas music!

Maya:

I like to hear it, but as Matt said "the link doesn't work". I am looking forward to hearing it. I have been writing some Christmas songs as well.

Sorry guys...I guess I can't post a link to a "private" Soundcloud.

How bout this?

I decided to ditch the "Lose the ugly sweater" line...!

Thanks for sharing, Maya. I like the song. Best of luck with it!

Cool song, Maya! I'm hearing a little absence of sparkle from the high end. Think you might be able to accentuate the upper end of the EQ spectrum? Either with some high end boost on the hi-hat, more presence / more subdivisions on that tambourine, or maybe some bells in the upper octaves? Any one of those things might help add that extra coating of sparkle that should really shine in a Christmas song.

Good writing, I enjoyed it!
