I've remixed Audra Mae's beautiful version of Bob Dylan's song 'Forever Young'. Any feedback very much appreciated. Thanks 👍🏻

it's good. the running melodies fit well and the vocals are very good.

at around the 1:08 mark I would cut the vocals add some crazy fitting synth melody and build up to a dance drop, either hardstyle, melodic techno or house will work

you could even use the synth arpeggio sound at 1:52 for that switch i mentioned above but a bit more melodic

overall it's solid but the song sounds like an intro, although it's good, it feels like it's missing that uplifting dance drop

Hi Tomusurp, thanks for having a listen and for the kind words. Yeah, when I first sat down to make it I was going to try making a big trance thing with a dramatic drop. But as I worked on it I realised I wanted this version to stay simpler and for the vocals to be the real focus. That's not to say I won't have another go at it with what you've suggested 🙂 I love huge drops too 👍🏻
