I believe in this track, but want to do a rewrite, and have a real Country singer on it as well (Instead of my lame voice lol)..I am trying to turn it into a Modern Country type of track....... All feedback, negative or positive, is appreciated- Thanks in advance

Re: Custom Critique
Hi, only my opinions so nothing to take seriously, but I get a lot more prog rock than modern country. Some of that is from the harmonic complexity (which I like but doesn't strike me as modern country), and some of it is from the vocal melody and hooks. Such things make me think that it would take a lot of re-work to push the song towards modern country, and in that case why not embrace its prog rock identity and treat it accordingly as a retro track? I'd be very interested to hear the critique from the expert though, they might disagree entirely!
Graham (UK). Still composing a little faster than decomposing, and 100% HI.

Re: Custom Critique
Yeah man...... Your feedback is very close to whatever I have received in the past with Returns....Are you sure you are not a screener? lol
I am thinking that you are correct. This also goes against my "write new music to the brief" approach that seems to be finally working.... I might just put it out on streaming and move on, but am curious as to what the screener will say.... Thanks for the advice!

OR: apply the critique/advice you get, and make the tweaks suggested to have it 'ready-in-the-barn' in case a listing comes up looking for
THAT.
Cool to read the reports of you getting into the TAXI-Way of writing to client specs, and getting positive results.
Cheers.
