How does yours deal with this?

[Vladimir]

Sweet. Makes me want to play some Goapele next.

Lol.....that girls tone deaf......

Dwele must be tone deaf too because they did a song together.

Vlad, don't know what that poor child had to do to get her music publishes but she can't sing....sampled a few tracks on YouTube......ouch!

Dwele has worked with others Kanya West's 'lights' being is most hi profile contribution to date.

She has done one with Snoop Dog which is a higher profile artist than Kanye by a long way. But I guess vocal abilities don't matter in the music industry for colaborations. Example D'Angelo duet with Lauryn Hill (zero vocal abilities).

I'd like to hear other forum members opinions if this girl can sing. Example here (raw vocal).

Not my cup of tea just on a recording basis, it's all synth, frankly the bass lines are just test tones, not a real instrument played by a real human!

If you really want to test your system, if this doesnt make you jump around the room then move onto another hobby!

no thanks Jeff. Not at all what I expected. Not about to suggest you get another hobby, but will think twice about ever recommending music to you

What?!

No one had a listen?

Not even on YouTube..... C'mon, have a listen tell me what you think.

Ditch the vocals and then as an instrumental track it could be ok, but not really my thang I'm afraid. Certainly wouldn't waste my money on the CD, it would just give me a headache. Gimme some Herbie Hancock *music2*.

The CD is worth every penny even if it's just to experience the 2ohm bass throughout, curious to know how many systems can deal with it.....superb demo disc.

Really smooth too. Trust me it grows on you in a very impressive way. Tracks that start out maaaah......'develope'

Dwele is a very underrated artist his music deserves more exposure.

I appreciate you taking the time to listen........

Not really my style of music. I'd like it better without vocals, but that's just my personal preference in terms of music. Production is a little lean (mid-range, upper bass) and leaning towards brightness at the top, but without quite stepping over the line. Works to give it a very open and detailed feel.

What is this 2 ohm bass you speak of? Bass is not particularly noteworthy. Sure there are the odd moment of sub bass with some impact, but nothing out of the usual for a modern pop production. Vulnicura (Bjork) has more seismic bass, and I'm sure I can dig up a fair number of albums that give a better work bass workout than that. I have to admit that I had to switch to headphones to check out the very lowest bass, especially as I have the bass reduced on my main speakers because they are in a compromised location, but the bass at some points definitely goes down below what my standmounted monitors can reach.

Lol......the 2ohm bass.

Not sure really, my speakers only go down to 48Hz and the woofers are only about 6inches.

But the Bass through them sounds nice, soft and round fast too, stops and starts 'so sweet' is how I'd describe it.

But when it dips low I'm impressed it does not compromise the whole spectrum. Mid-range integrity intact.

The sound is more 'airey' via my speakers more in your head/face via phones (sennheiser 205ll's) but all frequencies are hit.

No brightness on this track through my modest set though - the vu meter on my CD player showing its a pretty dynamic track too.

Interesting pov to what I'm hearing on my set ID....Thanks for taking the time.

i agree, separation is great, which is something I love and look for in components I buy. Drum snap and attack, impact is as you say.

Who is Jeff?!

I'm open to any music suggestions, just don't like that particular track (didn't think you did either) but I was being tongue in cheek with my comment. A good system would make you tap your feet, and bear in mind I'm not a fan of santana or much Latin type music. We're all differing in our tastes thankfully, but that shouldn't be a reason not to share new discoveries, surely?

 

[Thompsonuxb]

Sounds like he's singing vocals of one song over the music of something else. Not to my taste at all.

That's the style of the music. Another example of that is Bilal -'Reminisce'.

Check the live version of that too #contains some rap.

 

[MajorFubar]

Assessing it from a technical perspective, it played it ok other than the really deep sub bass which was beyond the limits of my speakers. Not really my kind of music but I realise this is what young 'uns call R&B these days and compared to other tracks of that genre it seems on par.

Er, thats clearly not raw vocals. Without processing of her voice she properly sound horrible. At the very end you can hear the delay & reverb effect.

Dwele - 'Dodgin your phone'.

Try this track and tell me how it sounds on your set.

It's 'Neo soul' a fusion of jazz/r&b/soul etc but it's cool honestly.

On mine, the Bass, the snap on the drums - seperation it works.....lyrics....pah, but their delivery works.

I bought the CD but the quality on YouTube is good.

Try it.... If your sets up to it let me know.

I only have my 'skype' phones on the now but yeah..... sounds Brill !

really struggling to post on this forum - getting kicked off completely or getting the 'copy the letters' with no letters provided or getting the contact admin link as I am blocked. gave up yesterday. so I'll try again.

anyhoo..... Vlad, that woman cannot sing....sorry dude.

How you can say Lauryn cannot sing beggers belief, ok she never fullfilled her potential and as made choices she may well live to regret but to say she cannot sing......out of order.

try Chrisette Michelle for some female vocals ......play with your eyes closed.
