Agree there is in ned for some percussion and yes, the vocal neds to be rocorded with a pop-filter if you want it to sound professional!
Nice melodies in the song/vocal, but to me this does not sound like a finished song. More like a vocal track from a song.

Interesting track.

I agree with the above comment about needing a pop filter. Also at 0:45 the change in one of the vocal tracks is over the top for me.

I really liked the overall balance of the vocals. Good use of effects and I really liked the panning of the vocals. When it’s just vocals like that it’s hard to make the track interesting for a whole song but well done on this.

I’m not real familiar with this style of music but I do agree with the comment above. Some subtle percussion would be cool.

fine tune!
however i sounded to me as if you didnt use a pop-filter for the “lead-vocal”. you might wanna record it again with a filter. it annoyed me pretty badly.

I agree with the others that a small amount of percussion would spice the track up!

Beautiful song, beautiful vocals. I think you did an excellent job with compressing/mixing the vocals — the balance is great and consistent throughout. The FX are very nice, not overpowering (except for the thunder, which deserves to be a bit overpowering).

How does it sound with less reverb on the vox? At least at the beginning, I found it a little bit heavy (but that’s just my personal taste). Also, a few microphone pops — it seems wasteful not to use such a good performance, but maybe it’s possible to edit them out?

Anyway, really a beautiful recording… The percussion idea sounds interesting too!

i don’t know much about serbian folk music, but i agree that some percussion would spice the tune up! also a drone, and maybe some background strings might make it more interesting…

Excellent vocals. Very fresh.

As a suggestion i would add very light and playful percussion, which is very quiet to give the whole piece more variation.
