Great to see you back. I feel the vocals should come forward slightly in the mix vocals seem a bit too pushed back.

But I'm really enjoying this.

Pumped for another year. Enjoyed this very much and looking forward to hearing a lot more from you again.

Great Track... Rock suits you!
I like the Mix but maybe the vocals could be a bit more present... or maybe the guitar with slightly less heights.

You did a trainspotting theme smashhit! Great recording and mixing. Looking forward to hear more songs like this.

Catchy, can't get it out of my head now. Well done!

(IMO the "bitcrushy" effect doesn't sound that great during "Is anyone there?" and "Does anyone care?" and hold the vocals back a little.)

i missed you beats last year!  so glad you are back!

i thought you were saying read between the lines read between the lies read between the lines

nice high energy start to the new year!  curious about your process as you record all these parts on your own how did you build this song?

i'd be curious to hear how a bit of a vocal boost would sound too - it sounds pushed back in my headphones (JVC HA-RX300's) & more forward & evenly mixed when i listen through the laptop built in speakers... this is the mysterious part of mixing & mastering to me!

i like the vocal pan when the added vocals come in - that's a nice touch - wish i could comment on the eq for you but i don't understand that well enough yet - the song sounds pretty bright to me as is though

Great start, can’t wait to hear more like this and looking forward to some rap tunes, on headphones the vocals sounded good in the mix

That chorus is indeed super catchy!  Excellent one-man-banding and bringing it altogether with the mix.  The ending vox reminded me a bit of Thom Yorke's style.  I'll be humming this one later for sure

Man this is amazing. I can't help but visualize a heist payoff montage from an Ocean's movie! And you have given me the final push to get more vocals going with WB2018. Watch this space!

I'm so used to your electronic sound that this threw me for a loop. I don't feel like it suffered from a lack of B section at all. Great just by itself with the build and release structure. As far as the EQ question is concerned, it did feel a little muted in the beginning, but as the song built and especially once it's intensity hit it's apex, it sounded perfect, so I'm not sure. Looking forward to hearing a new Orange Drink tune every week this year!

Hi orangedrink! I dig this. I think someone mentioned bringing the vocals forward, but I like them where they are. They sit well in the mix to my ears. Looking forward to what else you do!

Ah, another one person band!
Very nice.

Ah, another one person band! Very nice.

Catchy! I like the lo-fi aesthetic of this, and the vocal sound and lyrics. Maybe a brighter, beefier mix would be cool, felt bit muted, especially in the bigger parts. Looking forward to more, cheers!

Thanks for the track!

Whoop. Like them chords boys...

Maybe you could sweep the equipment over the course of the song... or run some subtle filtering, I can feel y'all getting more shimmery towards the end might be cool to exaggerate the effect... I dunno I'll try it on my sampler

Oh wow, hadn't expected to hear indierock! Love it, voice(s) sound(s) amazing! Great great song. And I love the vocal harmonies!
So happy with this. You should actually get out and tour with this.
Very energetic.

Thanks for the specific feedback everyone!  Generally summarizing the volume comments, we kind of have 4 people in favor of increasing the vocals and 4 people saying it is fine as it is.  Ultimately that's a good thing if not everyone agrees one way or another.  Vocals are tough for me to mix because I have to get over that "fear of the spotlight" kind of thing.  ...which is ironic because it's a one man band, amirite?

Thanks and good to see you too!  Excited for us this year!

EDUB - thanks so much, loving the new moniker

Thank you!  Trying to bring some energy like a New Year firework!

Thanks so much, I got some new drum cymbals that I am really excited about.  I hope to practice drums more consistently this year.

Thanks!

Thanks so much for the note on the lyrics.  I was trying to say a lot with a little.

Thank you!

OMG thank you for starting off my year with a pic of my secret husband, Derek Jacobi!  That is the perfect New Year gif!  And thanks for the kind words, you inspire me! 

Thanks so much!  Going to do more rock this year for sure!  That was actually how I got started back in the day.  This song is very much "Classic Orange Drink" in many ways.

Thank you!

Thanks!  And also I really appreciate the constructive criticism.  It is actually really helpful to know what things can potentially keep the audience at a distance, and then I can decide whether that move is intentional or not.  Kind of like a cook learning that this dish is too spicy for some people to eat.  Maybe they wanted it spicy, but not so spicy that people had to turn it down!    Thanks buddy.

My dude!

Heck yeah! \m/

God bless your hearing loss, repairing my mixes

Wow, thank you!  Great to see you on here.  I want to hear some music from you soooooo badly

It's all downhill from here!  Ha ha, jk and thank you.  Hope to set a higher bar than I had in 2016.

1: That gif is a perfect compliment to the song.  The "angel" almost alluding to death.
2: Wow, now that I listen to it, it really sounds like "lies" - I think I'm just going to change the lyrics from here on out, thanks!
3: For this song I kept running back and forth between the drums, guitar, and bass.  I recorded a test drum beat, played it back and played guitar.  I tried to see if any chord progression popped up.  I have a looper pedal (Line 6 DL4) and I recorded a few chords.  Then I plug in the bass and see if I can come up with a complimentary bass line.  I realized I wanted a different chord, so go back to the guitar and change the loop and go back.  After that, I have a better idea of how the beat should be, so then I am ready to record the drum beat in earnest.  I also use the computer to cut things up and create loops so I can try to come up with guitar melody lines on top, or come up with lyrics.  It can be a real pain running back and forth!  I need a studio engineer helper

Thanks, and I got a rap track for you coming tonight!!!  THE   H O T N E S S

WOW Thom Yorke comparison?  I can die happy.  I know what you mean though, I love it when he does the "stomach ache whine + petulant child" vocals!  Big Radiohead fan and there is a poster of them in the studio.

Ditto!  Your week one track was a hot change up, here's to 51 more!

Holy crap that is the best compliment and mental image ever.  I actually watched all three of the new series a few months ago, and love Steven Soderbergh, so maybe it was subconsciously in there??  I should edit a video together.  Bring the vocals dude!  Vocals + 8 string guit?  Gonna be brutal.

This is basically the Orange Drink mission statement in action   I'm so glad it A: threw you and B: you enjoyed it.  Thanks for the mixing feedback as well, it means a lot coming from someone who (imho) perfectly mixes music with insane hardware limitations.

ROBOSQUAD.  I also really enjoy your mixing (you had a great live mix at LSA!) so that means a lot to me.  Thanks.

Thanks for listening!

Cool idea, will have to investigate that on a future WB!  Thank you

P.s. I sampled this for this week.

I love the vocal treatment on this.  Also - tambourine...  so under used in music!  Great drums, digging the guits.... spot on vox... really impressed by this.

Great! I disagree with those who feel the vocals are too far back. I like the way they sit and how the whole thing sounds like it was recorded live in a club somewhere. Great feel!

This is great.  I love the approach to structuring the song between the words and chord prog.  EQ is pretty good, maybe just some minor volumizations between chorus and verse parts for the accompaniment instruments.  Love the driving rock beat.  Feels like a long lost skill in the digital age lol

My hubby who is much more of a pro than me listened to your mixes through both my speakers and said he liked your mix & wasn't hearing what i commented on. Add 2 more votes to the mix is good!  I think my headphones do something to the sound sometimes - I actually bought them for listening to my Ham radio... probably should invest in recording headphones

Your process makes me feel tired - WOW impressive - you make it sound so seamless!!!  Maybe this year you can find a volunteer studio engineer!

Dammit this is great.

Dammit this is great.

Flattered!

Thanks!  My sentiment exactly about the tambourine!  It's like a white noise shaker, if you think about it.  And it isn't easy to play well - quite an arm workout and you have to space the "give and take" evenly!  Thanks!

Thanks, I might do some volume touchups before a public release.  Glad you liked it and the structure!

Tell hubby thanks for the endorsement!  And YEAH my process makes me feel tired too!
