Take Me Away (To The Stars Mix)
I totally don't feel like typing up another response, so I'll copy paste from the site I posted it on =D

This is a cover of Take Me Away by 4 Strings.
This turned out marvelously well, much better than I had anticipated. Maybe I'm getting better at this? =o

Vocals done by me, made in Fruity Loops Studio 5

Its really nice but it lacks the atmospheric feel of the original song this feels really rough compared to it. I love the style though alot, the vocals (i dont mean to hate) don't fit in to the song they feel seperate and not integrated well enough. The intro kicks don't sound full enough to me either but I can tell the intro is based on the Instrumental version of the original. can I ask if you will do an instrumental version of this (only because the vocals don't fit right to me).

Also I miss the stuff you used to do like Kinetic and Trance Monster keep it up dude!

Well, I figured that mine sounds really rough in comparison. I mean, they're 4 Strings ^^;;

I don't mind doing an instrumental version, but do you know why the vocals don't fit? Like...bad sound quality? Or just doesn't make sense compositionally?

That's the first time someone's told me they like my older work more ._.;;

nonono im not saying i like your older songs better than this Im just saying i miss the older songs you made hope you make more along the same style. Its hard to really place what I don't like about the vocals, they do sound sort of seperate from the song itself just needs to be incorperated with the music somehow... but yeah the quality of the vocals could be better it seems too distant than what your trying to achieve they are really soft in comparison to the volume.

Its a really nice song though just work on the vocals a bit, make them a tad bit clearer and it will be perfect , I don't know really how you could add that atmospheric feel of the original to this if you wanted to but it sounds more like a club mix cover i guess....im rambling now dont mind me

Oh, sorry for the misinterpretation then ^^;;
I tried so, so hard to make the volume as it should be. Working with an average mic doesn't help that much either xP
I'll play around with them more and see if I can get a better quality out.

If you want the acapella, I've got it around here somewhere. I'll give your mix a listen in a little bit, this has always been one of my favorite tunes.

I think the vocals are not as strong or dynamic as the original version The soft vocals fits fine in many places, but needs to be a bit stronger in some other places(eg. the vocals can be a little louder from 00:59 - 1:27).

I really like the synthy melody at around 75% way of the song.
