Hi Everyone,
I normally post my own songs here but I like doing cover songs also and treat it as an exercise in arranging. Here is a Radiohead's song "Creep".

Comments appreciated

Hi James,

I liked it! I agree with Michee. This song was a good fit for you. I've got to say, I really like the prosody of this song. Your arrangement has captured this well. One small observance was that I noticed that at around 1:39, the backing suddenly softened in anticipation of the vocal. I found myself wondering if it was possible to move this volume reduction a second later so that it came across more as a blending between vocal and backing. Other than that, though. I enjoyed it

All the best,
Noel

Hi Noel,
Thank you for your kind comments - they are much appreciated.

It would be difficult to move the reduction in volume as this was all done on the CVP509. I use lots of registrations where I set up volumes and instruments etc. and then record changing registrations. The only way would be to record again and change registration a tad later but quite difficult. I could of course record each track separately. I did do this with the vocal. I cannot just change the midi since it is not just volumes but instruments that change at that point. Thanks for the observation and the trouble you have taken giving me the timing.

Thanks again Noel
Jim

Nice job I agree with all who have commented above. I will add that I hear a sort of Lenord Cohen quality to your voice.

Later,

Hi Danny,
Thanks for listening - your comments much appreciated. Leonard Cohen is one of my favourite song writers.
