Nice!

thanks.

Very enjoyable, but the vocals clipped on the first singing of the word 'Echo' on my hifi.

Lovely! The tunes really suits her voice.

I had no problems with clipping.

Here's the meter reading for that point in the song at "echo". It peaks at -2.7

It's a good track, very enjoyable. But, if it's not a clip, the singing of the first 'Echo' definitely sounds different than the rest of the vocal. I've subsequently listened using my studio amp and monitor speakers.

Great track also cover art!

[jzucker]

Great track also cover art!

Congratulations Jack! Sounds great! The beat seems to have a Bossa Nova element to it.

Thanks, means a lot.

Really nice, Jack. The voice sounds so familiar, like a cross between Gayle Moran and Pauline Wilson from Seawind. I look forward to hearing the rest of it, good job :-)

I listened with headphones and there is a "click" sound a millisecond during the word echo. I do agree it was quite enjoyable to listen to with an excellent performance from all. Fantastic vocals and I love when she scatted along with your amazing solo. Thanks for sharing @Jzucker

The singer has an extraordinary range, she is truly gifted. But like all humans, she is not perfect. She sometimes has an involuntary throat click on certain notes and in certain ranges. It's part of who she is and part of her singing. I considered filtering it but decided the overall performance outweighed any such imperfections.

[rrbasic]

I just read this through and to me it sounds so obviously like a slight ‘catch' in her throat, it’s something that I believe happens to all singers at some point in time.
This sounds good, Well done.

I may just give in and use waves de-click on this note.

[Ukena]

I don't know, Jack... I agree with your first instinct. It's part of her (considerable and admirable) artistry. You might not want to add any other audio artifacts that Waves will add in the de-click process. The tune is beautiful and excellently done, and the Holst sounds great.

You could always pretend her native language is Xhosa...

I have a Holst laminate (Borys B-120 Style) and a carved (L5) style, and I love them both!
