Great job guys..doesn't sound like a rough mix to me...good vox sound goin on in there..

[delb0y]

Great little song. I didn't hear the first version, but the full blown production version is impressive. I think my only comment is that the vocal is full of very short angular and snappy lines throughout, a change to a line or two that are longer might have been a nice variation.

Sounds even more charming and fun now - I don't think you'd be wanting to add much more as the song's strength is its relative simplicity and almost innocence. Tunes and concepts like that are pretty hard to come up with, so the production now sees some fun musical embellishments added. without these swamping the original idea.

The chorus is really catchy, star of the show. Stuck in my head, damn it! Good collaboration guys, and quick work too!

cant wait to see the final outcome

[CaliaMoko]

First of all--the final mix is here: https://soundcloud.com/caliamoko/just-wait. Cleaned up the background vocals.

@shadowfax : Thank you, Kevin. I hope the BGVs are even better now.

@delb0y : Thanks so much. I've thought about that idea, but I haven't been able to think how to do it. So far. Who knows what the future may bring??

@MichaelA : I'm glad you like it. Anything that sticks in the head is good, right??

@Kim Noel : Thanks! Follow the link above for the final version!

YAY im going to check that out after school

 Lovely song guys.  Reminds me of early 60's songs.  Would be perfect for one of those early Cliff Richards musicals.
 The intro took me right there It's the brass....loved it

 Wouldn't worry about the length, sounded like a 'complete' song to me...

 Onwards and onwards Vic   You're getting really good at this stuff

[adamwolf]

I really like this, it sounds like it could be in one of those feel-good 80s movies! I'm sorry I don't have much to say because I don't know much about this type of music, but it sounds very good to me and I figured I'd say that rather saying nothing at all

[adamfarr]

Lovely breezy melodies here. And a really vintage sounding production. Very nice horn section in particular.

Two comments from me:
- the first "just wait, just wait" section around 55" sounds very "busy" - perhaps there are some timing issues between the voice and guitar? The second section around 1'57" works much better.
- lead vocals sound a bit distant (maybe a bit too vintage!) - I think it might work to remove some of the reverb/delay so they come forward a bit in the mix

A cool song and great to see its evolution.

[PaulAds]

This one worked out great for you, Vicki (and John)

Vocals are really sweet...lovely harmonies too. Nice message as a reminder to take a moment to chill out every now and again in the swirling madness of modern living.

Cool

Hi Vicki,


What a throwback.
Reminds me of watching old TV shows at my Nan's back when I was a nipper.
Got a 50/60s vibe about it, but with a few modern embellishments.

In the words of Austin Powers - "Grooovy."

@Binladeda @adamwolf @adamfarr @PaulAds @digger72 @LostBoy
Thanks for your very kind observations! In case I haven't mentioned it before (I'm pretty sure I have) I love when one of you great producers wants to take a stab at one of my songs. @pompeyjazz , you make me sound so good.

[seriousfun]

Well isn't this just a happy and joyous song.  I throw back to the 60's and so well put together. Good job on it, pompey has done a terrific job on the production and your bright cheery vocal is spot on for this genre.

[pompeyjazz]

Vicki @CaliaMoko Your songs are brilliant anyway. It's always a pleasure to work with you
