Re: New Song 'Out Of My Mind!' (unmastered)

"Out Of My Mind"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This is a good demo of a song with a lot of potential:   I can see
several ways of presenting it, i.e. A Cappella;  bass-drums-piano,
and/or soupy strings.....

I think I would go toward a mix of styles:  Keep the backing choir
and spacey setting you presently have and then crash in with drums
and bass for one verse - back to lilting voice, bring in a couple of
violins and go for a bit of a last-verse-crescendo.... something like
that....

Even the most softly-spoken and "floaty" tunes can respond well
to quite an energetic backing, but in general - it's best not to do the
same thing all the way through....

Good Luck - Keep writing!
