Hey all would love some feedback on this if possible. I normally do not do too many r&b / pop remixes, so i would love to see what you all think. Thank you so much for your time!

ALESSIA CARA - HERE (DVIOUSMINDZ REMIX)



Enjoy!

 

OK well you're playing against the original with a remix, which always hard. I prefer your instrumental mix, but you need to rework that female vocal, use the very best vocal compressor you have, and don't suck all the air out of her voice. She needs to be maybe a dB louder. Also the bass of the strings if off centre, so consider using a bass centralising plug (everything below around 300 at dead mid). The bass pushes her voice upwards and to the right.

 

Thank you so much for you insightful feedback! really appreciate it. I really didn't treat this acapella at all, i just simply left it dry, no compression or EQ. I'll most definetly take your feedback in to great consideration, i normally tend to use the WAVES CLA-2A on vocals, or the abelton glue compressor. I feel like those are two of the most useful compressors.
