"Hang (Total Redo)" by Mike Huntingford

[Mike Huntingford]

While I was initially happy with the original Hang I could not help but hear my mistakes. So, this version takes elements of the original and I think incorporates them into this all new version.  I was really trying to improve on the acoustic piano elements - hopefully I have achieved that.  Also, in the other version the strings and acoustic/electric guitar compete whereas here I let the strings stand themselves with their own melody (this to me was absolutely necessary).

Would you please advise if this is better.

Thank you and I hope you enjoy it.

beautiful relaxing track. I have not heard the first version yet so i will check it out

[Farrell Jackson]

Both the mix and songwriting are really good, Mike. I can clearly hear all the instruments. The strings and the guitar aren't fighting for audible space at all. The piano sounds great. Perfection!

[Mike Huntingford]

I am so thankful that it has remained faithful to the original yet is different on its own. I am also happy the mix is still open.  I believe that I have resolved some muddiness I detected in the original composition and use of instruments - I think.

Regards,

Mike

I like aspects of both of them. This version is certainly clearer, the individual instruments can be picked out easier.

I liked the strummed guitar on the other version, but not especially its lead sound. The acoustic on here is nicer.

Hearing songs like this makes me wonder if i should just sell all the guitars and invest in a few higher prices synth workstations

Unfortunately for us mere mortals it isn't enough to just have the gear. A certain level of sophistication and taste is needed. And being barely housebroken i think i'll stick to things with strings...

But boy does this sound great. It's an aural journey into a more relaxed headspace. Bringing images of the years gone by to mind. Images mostly harvested from tv as this has that soundtrack - type of vibe.

The only thing that brought me back to earth while listening to this was one of my dogs stinking up the place...

Like i said. A certain level of sophistication is needed.

(You sound more like a cat person, but they smell too... So maybe this is somekind of sorcery, or you're just collecting Franklin mints).

A great song.
