This one I'm submitting to a RNB soul listing. Really wanted to see if I could get some mix critique on this one. If anything stands out lyrically/ composition wise or anything as well. I'd love to hear those suggestions too.

I appreciate yyou all.

A Bunch of CURRENT-Sounding POP/R&B/SOUL SONGS with some RETRO-Flavor and Male or Female Vocals are needed by an EXCLUSIVE Music Licensing Company with tons of great placements in Film, TV, and other Media.

This Company is searching for Mid-to-Up-Tempo Songs that could fit on a playlist with the following references:

"Free" by Otis Kane - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Abx9pbUUyCI

"Broke Boy" by Malia Civetz - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=We5owy0iVQk

"Skate" by Silk Sonic - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEw-7cMnBDY

Please send current-sounding, recently recorded, Pop/R&B/Soul Songs with some retro-flavor that could work well for placements in sync. Your submissions should have catchy melodies, memorable choruses, well-crafted lyrics, inviting rhythms, solid arrangements, and soulful, well-performed vocals. Current-sounding instrumentation that blends elements of Pop, R&B, and Soul – as well as retro-flavors – and falls in the general wheelhouse of the references will work best for this pitch. Having a "Motown" flavor could be a plus! Please be sure your productions, and any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and not dated-sounding.


Here's the listing that I'm submitting to.

Hey there! I'm getting this message when following the Soundcloud link: "this track was not found. Maybe it has been removed"

Oh I think it was an issue with the link. How about this one?

[DouglasKnight]

Yes, that link works, thank you. Cool song! You've got lots of great ideas and parts going on, and I especially like the guitars and the vocals. I was a bit distracted by the snare and hat...they seemed a bit loud to me, but I think the song really has potential, very nice work., and good luck!

[Hershthaprophet]

Thank you! You’re totally right. The hats and snares were definitely a problem area for me. I’ll review them more. They might need to be turned down.
