    The structure and beats are better in the skywolf’s version, but it lacks the punch, the voice has too much reverb, and the percussion could have been more polished. The overall sound and instrument selection are better in Nathan’s version, but for the opening part of the song, I prefer skywolf’s version. If the two versions were combined, it would make a perfect song in my opinion.

    @GodsTruthforYou Рік тому +16

    Great job to both of you, but Nathan’s just had the depth and energy throughout and also the clarity of vocals. The drum additions with cymbals and various crashes works well.
    But SkyWolf’s string medley between verses was really catchy! Great job.
    I’m a new member of the producer community and hope to do a battle one day too! In fact my friend is willing to give her vocals :) She’s a recording artist.

    Both were very well done!! However, I feel Nathan’s music sounded like a medieval battle with a modern voice so it seemed like they didn’t go together. But as far as producing music, it was epic! Just the voice/vocals didn’t go with the music.
    Sky Wolf’s music was a modern, intense story that went perfectly with the vocals. I got chills listening to the intense story!

    Love SkyWolf's production. Only wish that the vocals sat in a similar space as the instruments, it felt like there was a slight disconnect, though that could be me. Very alt-pop and ear catching. The string melody was amazing as well.
    Nathan's production was much more full, and I loved the dramatic hits and suck-ins. The high strings in the second half of the chorus were beautiful.
    Both had really cool vocal production ear candies and effects

    I'd have to say, Nathan's percussion is exactly what I had in mind when first hearing the vocals. I feel like Sky's time signature is what made his mix sound amateur. Sky's percussion could have used some serious beefing up but nevertheless, a standard drum kit would have been fine had he not used a 4/4 time signature when doing so.

    I’m with the other guy’s version, the voice forward two quick beats later. It’s much more commercial and I prefer her voice. I’d say he used an auto tune and better use of reverb
