How are we doing for lead guitar by the way? I could possibly give it a go, but would need some practice.
I don't mind doing the male backing vocals, but there'll be no 'profile-en face' shots on the video unless it's in dark silhouette. My looks are the polar opposite (pun intended) to Benny and Björn's handsome, Swedish visage. :)

Deuils, Dan said he will do the lead guitar, but you can go for the male backing vocals and if you sing as greatly as you did the piano track nobody will pay attention to your Swedish visage my friend.

@Jaugb: Ha - my non-Swedish visage you mean. I have what some say is "a good face for radio". My voice is unfortunately along the same lines, I can sing reasonably in tune but I have no proper control or projection so I'm only good for backing vocals (with a lot of chorus, eq, and other effects!)

@Deuils: Well my friend even though you're many kilometers ahead of me, I'm very bad singing, no Pro Tools to make my singing better.

Hello my friend, sorry for not replying yesterday, we had a holiday here and I didn't have time. John, nice hearing from you again my friend, Margarex, super tracks, if you think your lead track needs to be revised you can send me it when possible for you. dan00075 very precise bass track, thanks again. Deuils, amazing track you perfectly know ABBA spirit, thank you so much too. Now I'm after a vocal for the male part.

Ah well, they were the happiest sound of my childhood, and as I grew older, I realised they were also the most perfect - perfect songcraft, production and musicianship. Always brilliant and inspiring.

@Deuils: I agree 100% with you, the metric of their songs is perfect.

Hi Jaugb, Keys track uploaded. I've nudged it a bit in DAW (-00:00.053) for timing. Also used an ending from one of ABBA's live shows, if it doesn't work, let me know, and I'll redo with a fade ending (or the straight stop that Dan and Bdayjaysus have done)

Great track, Matt. Love the ending. I will take the lead on this one and mute my last note. It is easy enough for me to do and will only take me a couple of minutes. Cheers.

@Daniel Ramos (@dan00075): Shame to mute it - could you cut in the A and B from the interlude before the last chorus? Lovely playing as always

Hi Margarex, your lead vocal is at high volume, to increase it I think it is necessary to boost it, many people don't like to have their tracks boosted, what do you think? For your high backing vocal track 7, I dimished it to 60%, please, let me know your opinion. Regards!

Hi. Ok, let me then edit the lead myself. The part that needs more volume is the chorus, where It should be Heard more to keep the main Melody. I will submit an updated track with only that part increased

So once I have done that I will check how It mixes with the other 2 voices, but I think that the high track 7 will be okay as It is now after you lowered It. Thank you :)
