Sounds good but it's not interesting enough tbh, it's like a One More Night by Maroon 5 rip off.

Meh. Lead vocals aren't convincing. Production is dated

So Cold - August Moon

Written and produced by Albin Nedler, Carl Falk, Savan Kotecha and Shellback

I'm obsessed, sounds like Only Human, I wish Shellback worked on more songs. He also has a credit for Drums, it's very distinctive.

I like the concept of this fake boyband just to let the swedes do their thing.

Wasn't expecting much and so little was served, usually songs for these events don't end up being memorable

Sounds very uninspired.

Also samples Angel of Mine by Eternal and re-recorded by Monica, who popularized it.

I found it very bland.

Quote from: Hitmakers75 on April 11, 2022, 08:13:27 AMI finally found a Vintage Keys (Plus) and uploaded in it the original .syx "new" presets from the original Vintage Keys.
Definitely the synth used by Cheiron for all the mellotron and violin sounds (particularly the intro of N'Sync's Bye Bye).
But the most used preset of this synth by the Cheiron team is definitely the String Wheel pad which can be heard in a lot of 1994-1999 productions (Papa Dee "The First Cut Is The Deepest", Ace Of Base "Lucky Love", Backstreet Boys "IWITW"...) and still in some in 2000's (Britney "3")

For those who are interested in, i sampled every single note of this preset (48/24bits) C0-C7 and made an .exs patch for Logic Pro.
Here's the link :

And a very fast remake of Never Gonna Say I'm Sorry with the preset :

WOW!!! NICE!!! Sorry but the link is dead

Quote from: poplabaudio on June 14, 2024, 11:23:51 AMSince the download link for the Kontakt Library from Hitmakers75 isn't available anymore and I didn't want to buy a Vintage Keys Plus just to get the StringWheel Preset...I tried recreating it using Serum (using the the audio example from HitMakers75)

There is some difference but I think this is very close and very usable. The vibrato was a little tricky since it's not stable over time. The intensity varies quite a lot which I guess is what gives it a very distinct character. What do you guys think of this?

Also, are there any other presets I should give a go recreating?

Very good Serum preset! Where can I download it?

Des'ree's "You Gotta Be" is left uncredited
Halsey previously already tried to release a song "Nightmare" written over t.A.t.u's "All the things she said" without paying its writers, were sued, credited them but deleted the song from an album just in spite.
