IM ALIVE ..Srividya KasTuri Vocalist .Mixed by Neil Swanson cp 2010

IM ALIVE ..Srividya KasTur... Lyrics & Chords

This was a treat for me to work with ….
Srividya …even though this song was done
by Rinu . there are many times, that a song
is redone by different singers. as we all know

She will b posting the song also on her page
but disable commenting will b directed to
my page as per her instructions. so all comments
will b directed on this page.

She has a wonderful and lovely voice and it
was my honor to work with her ,,and i thank
god for all the door s being opent to me
from this site and many other music sites.

So i hope u enjoy i did the best i could on
the mix . i had to elevate and compress her
vocals and a lot of equalization etc. so
enjoy . and remember WE ARE ALL ALIVE
THANK GOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wonderful voice Srividya….loved it….harmonies are good…scale change well handled

@Neil: vocal level needs to be little high….please fix that soon and reupload. also add a tad bit reverb

Edit: Vocal levels seems okay now…reverb/chorus is bit high….good job Neil and Srividya

Excellent singing Vidya! Truly a quality performance!

Nice mix Neil. The volume levels are alright. If I could nitpick, the vocals need a little bit of De-esser….

Neil & Srivi!!!!! Absolute musical feast for the day…. Nice beats to carry the song and Srivi’s voice was floating over the composition… Seconds were awesome too…. And the sudden drift of scale was beautiful and was handled efficiently…. Awesome package, to sum up…. Keep ’em coming….

Very nice work Srividhya and Neil…. Superb singing and nice harmonies……

Neil – With repect to the mixing…. it is sounding clear and crisp.
ON THE VOCALS, I just felt there should be some more sustainance on the word endings… the effect we wd get with more reverb……I am not sure if I have expressed myself correctly……

Good job Vidya and Neil! :) Me likes!

Vidya…kudos for daring to attempt a celine dion song! :) the good news is that you sang on pitch for the most part…however it seems that you concentrated on the accent so much, that it took away from the song in terms of effortlessness….the desi flavor will go away with practice…

Neil: i’m no mixing expert, but the vocal levels definitely need lowering….otherwise, it sounded great!
