Fish In The Sea (feat. Admiral Bob) by Sascha Ende

Hit or Miss? Arti’s Review

Right, let's have a listen to this track... Okay, first impression – there's a definite singer-songwriter vibe, almost a touch of that classic, slightly worn-in feel. The vocals are upfront and honest, storytelling in nature, which is always interesting for media use. The instrumentation is quite organic, with acoustic guitar being prominent, alongside what sounds like electric guitars and a solid, if somewhat restrained, rhythm section. The arrangement is fairly straightforward, focusing on the vocal delivery and the lyrical content. In terms of production, it’s clean enough, but perhaps lacks a little bit of the polish you’d expect for top-tier library music. The mix is decent, the vocals are clear, but the overall sonic picture could benefit from a touch more width and depth; maybe some subtle stereo widening on the guitars or a bit more attention to the low-end to give it a richer foundation. Emotionally, it’s got a slightly melancholic, reflective mood – it’s not overtly sad, but there's a definite undercurrent of contemplation. This could work well in documentaries, perhaps scenes with a touch of nostalgia or introspection, or even indie film projects where a raw, authentic sound is desired. For advertising, it might be a bit too laid-back for high-energy spots, but could suit campaigns with a more thoughtful, sincere tone. Gaming-wise, I could see this in a narrative-driven indie game, maybe during dialogue scenes or quieter moments. Compared to industry standards, it's sitting in that solid ‘professional’ bracket, but with room to elevate. A little more attention to the mix and mastering could really bring out the best in the track. Perhaps experimenting with some subtle atmospheric pads in the background could add depth without detracting from the organic feel. Also, exploring a slightly more dynamic arrangement – maybe a subtle build-up in the bridge or outro – could enhance its cinematic potential. Overall, it's a track with a good core idea and a genuine, honest feel. With a few tweaks in production and arrangement, it could definitely find its place in a variety of media projects and hold its own against industry-level production music. It’s got character, which is a real asset in a crowded market.
