I got back another version and it sounds a bit worse for me, but I have faith in my producer. A tad nervous though in truth. Don’t put out a song you aren’t happy with tbh. It’s your art, you should be satisfied with the final product you’re putting out over anyone else. Keep working at it until you’re happy with it, unless after listening to it several times you change your opinion on it and you are happy with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you feel like it isn't ready or you don't like the sound of something then its not worth putting it out. You will always be your biggest critic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mpache 672 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 The song is ready, and besides one bit in the first chorus I'm happy with how it turned out. Out wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bachata is a romantic music genre from the Dominican Republic. I'd say the 2nd most popular Latin genre after Reggaeton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Mel81x+ 3,612 Posted May 12, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted May 12, 2020 After having a listen to the record I went and did some reading on the core principles of Bachata music and found this. https://www.iasorecords.com/release/bachata-breakdown-en-vivo Interesting how the syncopation system works and for anyone that wants to try and understand the music so playing along with it or singing to it as well.

I recommend listening to Romeo Santos (the king of Bachata) and Prince Royce. They might not have the most natural bachata sounds (they do like to mix genres a lot) but they give you a feel of the genre well. If you want something more natural, try Monchy and Alexandra.

Mpache 672 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 So I invited a bunch of people to the stream with the song, and now I'm getting flooded with overwhelmingly positive comments. I didn't think it was quite THAT good and I'm extremely happy people like it heaps. Don't get me wrong, I really liked the final mix but I was still somewhat unsure because I'm my biggest critic. Now I have a huge confidence boost and I can keep at it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d never heard of this band, but turns out they’re about 30 min north of me. So when the world goes back to normal, I’ll go see if they’re doing any local shows. Prog’s one of those things though where I can’t listen to it for more than about an hour for some reason. Idk why, maybe it makes me think too much?

I heard that they were slotted to come to India before whatever has gone down has gone down so a bit bummed but just like you I can't do prog for too long because to me it gets a bit repetitive.
