To me, it sounds like the bass line, in the verses, has a minor feel which seems to clash with the major sounding melody. By the end of the song I was kind of used to it, but early on it sounded strange to me.Also, I would probably try an acoustic guitar in the verses. Double tracked but not very loud in the mix. Stuart

I'm loving the bass sound here man... the production sounds pretty balanced IMHO...This has a very nice pop feel...Ur singer's voice is pretty good too... & nice harmonizing backings...I can't think of anything to even change here... it's all pretty round & balanced to my ears now yea!-Kel

Scott,Missed this first time around, so am now catching the new mix. Cool tune; pretty catchy; vocalist serves it well.Production/mix notes: - Thought the guitars very slightly interfered with the vocal in the verses; might treat with volume and/or EQ - Found my ears wishing for more mids in the chorus, since there's lot of vocal content up high; maybe just pull the guitars up a bit?Vince
