Very creative, really like the sound. Agree with all the comments about bringing up the vocals. Very enjoyable listen.
Steve Thanks Steve, I'm please you enjoy it & thanks for saying so. Vocals raised - link in OP.

I loved it. A very surreal tune and melody. I think the melody is unusual and tricky thus the vocals would benefit from more confidence as well as being further forward in the mix. Thanks Lambada, I'm glad you like it - surreal - that's a pleasing compliment. The vocals have been raised, (link in OP), but I won't be able to get a confident retrack as it's bee a decade since I've seen the singer.

Ray,
Very creative and evocative. As Rob says, this has a Cocteau Twins feel - and for me that`s a big plus.Miriam has a really good voice for the unusual melody. Although its fine that the lyrics kind of float through the mix (some cool and unsettling lines in there!) I agree with the comments on bringing the vocal forward a little. Lots of work has gone into your production and your sound is unlike anything I`ve heard using BiaB before- I`m looking forward to more!
Robert Thanks very much Robert, I've lifted the vocal - they sit a little back as they were recorded to tape with reverb so mixing them in has been a little challenging,(remix in the OP). Nothing like a sweet voice singing unsettling lines - thanks for that.

Wow, what a tune! As others said, this is very creative and has a truly original vibe here. It reminds me vaguely of Bjork. Even then, the tune has a sound quality unlike anything I've heard made in Band-in-a-Box before. Thanks so much for sharing Deryk, thank you very much. a RealPak of Mellotron voices would be brilliant in BIAB. The pedal to make those sounds costs about AUS$350, (I was lucky to be given it as a birthday pressie from a couple of relatives), and it's quite popular. I've popped a link tothe straighter version of the song that uses RealDrums and more RealTracks organ and almost no Mel9.

Wow!
That was different and unusual -- in the good way.
I suspect you spent considerable time putting all that together.
Sounds great on our monitors!

J&B Thanks J & B, This version didn't take too long once I learnt some tricks of the Mel9. The hardest part was remembering less is more. There were 5 other voices on the pedal I didn't use, well I did use but manages to leave out when mixing.

All the versions are nice!! I think the louder vocal works better. Vocals and vibe are very nice-reminds me of The Cranberries. Nicely done!! Take care. Greg

Hi Ray. I prefer the first version with Miriam's voice wrapped in and weaving so well with those cool sounds. Cheers.

Hi, Ray !
I´d say this was truly superbly original and must have been very difficult to sing ! Trevor said esotheric and i fully agree with that !
Cheers Dani
