Happy New Year to all

I don't often post on here but I lurk a lot!

Here's a song written and sung by my daughter, Corinne Lucy, that I've produced in my Scope based studio. I've gone for a bit of an 80's vibe. I've used Minimax for bass, Protone for snare synth, STM2448 and a bunch of 'verbs, synths, Vinco etc.

I only have a Pulsar 2 Pro but I get by. What I wouldn't give for a 20 DSP setup. One day, if I get some money.

Corinne will be posting some acoustic stuff on Youtube in the very near future, a mix of covers and original material. Just search for Corinne Lucy.

Enjoy

Great production values! I noticed you are from the UK. It sounds very UKish. They probably would play this on Morning Becomes Eclectic:

It's quite good, not the kind of music I listen to but I have to say it is well produced.
If I was producing this I would get a live drummer or at least make the drums sound less mechanical. I guess the drums are what bothers me most about it. The fade out is a cop out ending. Not that I haven't done the same. A longer fade out would be better though. It is rather abrupt.

Very smooth mix. Vocal seems to jump out of mix sometimes but i like it anyway. Great song!

Quite a soothing song, it has a nice vibe although I agree that it could benefit from other types of drums. She has a fantastic tone!

Very nice. But it could do with a little more bass ...
Good vocal-arrangement.

nice work, both production and vocals are good. Love the snare, fits in with the overall sound. Might be a bit dark for the 80's, but the voice... lucky star? funnily enough Sleeping Sattelite (wasnt that Tasmin Archer?) springs to mind, so u have some 90's in there as well

keep it up!
