I wrote this for my girlfriend, but she’ll never hear it because Travis Twitt is the earth moon and sun.

It’s not really that good anyway :)

we like this over here in NYC, nicely done. If that's a bass doing the bass line, dope little riff there.

Fab song, that bass line gets right inside my muscles and shakes me till i drop. I love that name Valerie, with a name like that she must be alright.

The "Ahhhhhs" (Sleeping with the Ghost)- it's just patience, close mic-ing and using your "head voice" (try and sing as much like a girl as you can lol). And then for "harder" sounds, "wail" at it. Lots of voices with uniform performances produce "smooth" and "rich"; less and varied performances (as in not the same everytime) produce sharper sounds. Mix the two up as necessary in layers. Also think about recording the "breath" in the notes as well. You're actually getting VERY close to it with the vox on here - think about using different tones of voice and it will all become clear :) Also there's a bunch of EQing tricks - a cut at 3K (Q 1.0) on the bvox will increase the breathy, soft sound (and keep them out of the way of the lead).

Actually, same here - hadn't clicked that button Follow button on yours either - fixed now! Might as well listen to this again while I'm doing it lol That chorus is brilliant. The backing vox, and then those descending chords at the end of it.

Oh yeah, this is fab. Love the clean and uncluttered arrangement (which I CANNOT do! I keep trying to, but I can't... curses), and then those vocals - she's right, the word is "sublime".
