First, what's your general reaction to vocal tracks? And does it bother
you when some of these >vocalists can't quite cut it?
i mostly listen to the vocals as another instrument. so the tone of the
vocal in relation to the rest of the track is way more important than what
is sung, and even the quality of the singing. i can imagine loving a track i
which the singing is actually quite bad, but where it works in connection
with the rest of the music (joe lewis 'midnight dancing' comes to mind).
terry brookes 'breaking cycles' is a vocal techno track i love, the new
terry brookes vocal track however the vocal didn't work for me. though the
quality of the vocals on this new track are probably better than on breaking
cycles.
