I DREAM OF YOU
https://www.reverbnation.com/kaynemusic/song/34693134-i-dream-of-youThis is my attempt to write a "Diane Warren" type of song. A classic song that can be sung by either a country, pop, or rock vocalist. Let me know if I hit the mark. Thanks This song features Sheena, Solaria, Natalie, SynthV vocalists. I play piano, bass, strings, guitars, synths to the BIAB tracks arrangement. DAW: Cubase 13, Ozone, Halion 7, Wave Plugins, and some magic dust. ****** Song Summary ************* Title: I dream of you File:idreamofyou.SGU Key=D , Tempo 100, Length (m:s)=4:33 No intro. 112 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 112.

Elliot, beautifully constructed and arranged. I particularly like the vocal arrangement. Not an expert on Diane Warren tunes, but this certainly gets the BIG Diane Warren finish that I associate with her style. Nice job!

Yeow, what a vocal group. I'm starting to recognize some of them. Nice choice with the strings, and that piano adds the right touch. A really good mix --especially considering how much is in there, and I believe I can hear each and every piece in its time. Good dynamics before the finale. All so well done, Elliott.

Hi Elliott,
I'm not an expert in this type of music but thoroughly enjoyed my listen.
Up to your high standard of production - I particularly liked the light and shade with your choice of instruments and fills and dynamics. Also liked your bass playing.
Excellent!
Best Regards

Elliott
A superb production. Everything stands in it's own light weithout interfering with anything else - rather, enhances the total production. I think you perfectly attained what you said you were aiming for.
The vocals are particularly impressive. And I really liked the the key modulation near the end.
I can clealry hear this produced in the several genres you mentioned - pop and pop-country stand out to me.
An excellent song and excellent production. Tip of the proverbial musician's hat. Well done!
Alan

Hi, Elliot. I think you hit the target. The vocals in the mix are a bit bright for my ears, but that's a personal preference. It feels a bit lacking in the midrange, but the bass is holding down the low end - good job with that! Nice arrangement and harmonies. The setup and modulation on the last chorus works really well.

We are not familiar with Diane Warren but this is a powerful performance with a lovely lyric.
The arrangement of the band and vocals and the modulation is excellent.
We love the dynamics in the mix.
Well done!

Elliott, this is an outstanding song.
I have no idea who Diane Warren is but I know that this song is a killer.
Really good synth vocals and harmonies.
Great arrangement and dynamics.
Loved it.
The more I get to know people the more I realize why Noah only allowed animals on the ark.
