What a fun, care-free song! It took but a couple of seconds to put a smile on my face!
Great BIAB backing tracks. And what a marvelous vocal!!! Made me feel happier and just a little more "comfy" as I listened. I really, truly like this. That was a delightful treat ... just what I needed.

Agreed!! Just a fun, happy song with a great delivery!! Crack me a Corona.......well......make that a Dos Equis! Take care. Greg
Ahhh, hot sand, cool breeze, and friends, What a great combination. A great feel, Elliott. Full moon, sunsets and a child's voice. Man! Great tune, with a perfect band and vocals. I was expecting to hear a steel drum solo, but the guitar was a welcomed surprise.
I hear a cheerful song, with a reggae touch, clear vocals and a strong chorus! Now I am thinking of making me a Rum and Coke ( Cuba libre), while just before listening to your song I will not drink today. So thanks you prevend me from doing that and pour me that drink! Very nice song! One tiny thing: I prefered it if your band plays a bit louder to the vocals, so they become more glued together (if you get what I want to say),
I did a remix using a new gain stageing techniques I just learned from watching YouTube mixing tutorials. Wow! What a difference in clarity and quality. Its like waving a magic wand over your mixes!

Pleasant little tune...at a perfect time!
And, yes, gain staging is task #1 when setting up a multitrack mix. It's about getting to the final loudness level with everything balanced to the ear. Different streaming services can have different requirements.
A good, free meter for measuring the loudness level on your stereo output buss, is the Youlean meter (I use the Pro version).
The guitar lead was from real tracks. I used the DirStraights solo gtr and generated several variations and cut and pasted edited it until I got the final lead.
Really nice work - you don't hear too many reggae songs here on the forums, so this was kind of a breath of fresh air Loved the groove, and the guitar solo fits perfectly in the mix.
