Run and Hide - New synthpop song

[danielb]

Hi all,

This is my new song, which I think is now just about good enough for its first public exposure. Please consider this a first draft.

I am much more comfortable with just synths rather than vocals and synths - so any feedback is very welcome.

For the curious; most of the backing is played on my newly acquired Access Virus. The only exception is the bass lines, which are Sylenth1, and the drums, which are Jamstix2.

Hi all,

I just uploaded a heavily revamped version of the song, much better than the first one.

The link is unchanged.

I like that synth solo at around 2:20! The vocals sound a bit too loud and could maybe use more fx to make them sound "spacey" imo. Nice tune though, sounds like it's straight from the 80's!

Thanks! I just sent a new version, which I think sounds a lot better.

Hi all,


Here is the latest and possibly final(?), version of "Run and Hide".

No really dramatic changes. The most dramatic change is in fact that I finally have a pair of monitors that allow me to hear what is actually going on in my song, so I was able to make some small adjustments that I think make quite a difference to the overall effect:

Feedback is welcome as usual.
