Wowza, as Mr. Tucci put it this one is full of vibes… I got so lost in the music that I turned off my thinking Mixer Brain and let the music tell take me on the ride, telling the story for a 15 minutes.
Is there things that could be tidied/cleaned up, maybe. Some vocal comping, drum timing, etc., Yes… but does that take anything away from the story that is being told emotionally, NO!
This reminds me of the Jazz albums with 15 + minute songs. I have never mixed a song longer than about 6 minutes, so props to keeping the energy building throughout without losing a beat!
Patrick, I’m curious if you were strictly the engineer on this or did you have a hand in recording/playing on it as well?
Kudos to you for going at it & coming out with some really raw vibes, job very well done!!! Take care, keep creating & Mix ON! =)
