[MusicTlk] Icecream memories.m4a

[Darnell Johnson]

Hey Chris, thanks for your feedback. it's much appreciated. I didn't think of it that way. A Love for all Seasons was produced properly, while Icecream Memories was a little different. I can understand the concept of over produced vocals. I actually thought the song was good, but that's my oppinion.

In other words, a song can be enhanced by adding backup vocals or a variety of instruments, but adding such elements can also take away from the melody and harmonies which make a song if a musician isn't careful. While I understand what you were trying to do by adding a "speak singing" track to back up your lead vocals, I think the amount and volume of the "speak singing" make the final product "over produced." In some cases, I could barely hear your melody over your backup, and the instrumental was almost inaudible throughout. If you want to keep the speak singing, I would suggest limiting it to one "person," lowering the volume of that track, and making sure your vocals can be heard above it all. Hope this helps!
