We enjoyed it.

PS: If you plan on submitting to the streaming platforms I would reduce the volume. It is loud...relatively. Below is a great link that will almost immediately show you how much the major streaming platforms would pull up or down your songs...if needed. I suspect this one would be reduced several db's. it's typically better to submit at the current industry standard volumes than have them adjust it which they will. SC which is about the only platform that doesn't make adjustments. Because of that at SC you can listen to several songs at typical streaming loudness then have the next one blow your monitors off the shelf smile If you have no interest in placing it on platforms other than SC please ignore my babbling!

It only takes a few seconds to measure it.

FWIW!!!


Janice and Bud,
Thanks for listening and for your comments.
Thanks too for the Loudness Penalty info. Wow! I had no idea about this.
I tested Lazy Dayz (2020 mix) on the site and was told it would be reduced in volume between 4db and 6db, depending on the streaming platform.
I have been simply submitting my songs to Soundcloud (the only streaming platform I'm contributing to at the moment), and limiting them to-1db, which is what a lot of the literature says to do.
I'll have to investigate further.
Thanks again guys,
Cheers,
Mike
