Hi Dani,
Definitely a nice tune and style, but the mix sounds kind of muddy on my computer. Did you upload a low bitrate MP3?

This is really goood Dani. But I agree, something is off with the mix. I hope you revisit it. Sounds like a top arrangement and stellar harmonies. A remix would do wonders and let the harmonies and vocals shine. Good to see a post from you again.

Hi, Anne-Marie and Rob !:))
Thanks for your most kind words much appreciated. I did try and clean it up by taking away most of the effects, hope it sounds better this way ?
Cheers Dani

Hey Dani! Welcome back from holiday! Sorry, seems like I cursed your vacation weather by saying I was envious! If it's any consolation I just got back from a trip too and the weather was MUCH colder there than it was here!
I always enjoy your songs done in a beach boys style... not many people could pull that off! I hope we continue to hear more in that style!

Hello, Dani
Another Beach Boys sound again. As Peter said, you've certainly nailed that old Beach Boys sound. Enjoyed my listen a lot this time too.
Best Regards.

Hi, Charlie !:))
I know the mix sounds too muddy but I tried to take away most effects and if you can use more treble it might be that the words come out a little clearer ?
As you know I am so grateful for your most kind words !:))
Cheers Dani

To me I expected a certain type of sound from this. Now there are different ways it could sound within the type of sound, but you met that sound. To me, that's saying a lot. I like the multi vocal line play you have going on. Well done! It's really cool to hear something like this!
