    Exotic Sun

    Bass line needs to come up a little bit. Was this made using fruity loops?

    Instrumental start

    Thanks for the feedback jmasek! Actually, I think you're the first person to say that they didn't like the drums. I do most of it with just drum samples, and that was the first beat that popped into my head while I was recording. Is it too heavy in the way that it is mixed, or just too "hard"...

    New Song: "Blue Winter"

    Notes: Pitch problems on the vocals throughout the song. Needs to be fixed pretty badly. Also, to pick up on the feel of the song, you may want to consider throwing some more reverb on the vox to kinda get a more airy sound. I really like the cello, but it needs to be mixed in a bit better...

    Psychedelic proggy thing....

    In a weird way, starts off with instrumentation similar to something you would hear from Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, which I personally love as a band. Not a fan of the vocal lines. Just sounds off. Otherwise, I like the actual music itself, but it does get a little repetetive after a while...

    Instrumental start

    Thanks for the feedback guys! I've been trying all sorts of different stylings and techniques to see what I can do best without sounding forced. Everything on that site is considered (for the most part) works in progress, so just about everything is being worked on in some capacity. That...

    If you like dark ambient alternative...

    For some reason, I kept wanting to hear some synthesizer in there to help really fill out the sound. Maybe some sparse piano as well to help with the mood of the song.

    New mix suggestions... opinions.... how bad is it...

    Band reminds me of GlassJaw a bit, but much, much worse. I'd EQ the guitars a little bit more (cutting out the mids just a bit to get less of an aggressive, chunky sound out of it. Still could use a little more bass guitar. Otherwise, good mix.

    Liking it a bit :D Your style is a little reminiscent of Dog Fashion Disco, but much more into the awesome guitar effects sounds and synth stuff.

    Making progress on a song..

    Just posted a quick little snippet of a song I'm working on. I always write a song almost like the way a painter paints... I get a scene in my head and I start to develop it in a musical sense. www.myspace.com/solaris79 snippet is "Paper Dragon" What I'd like to know is just within the small...

    Anyone partaking in this challenge?

    Does anyone else suffer from perfectionism?

    Yes... and I never get anything done because of it.

    First recording in student house!

    Guitars sound kinda tinny and need more presence in the right channel. Tempo fluctuates here and there. Snare needs more rip.. kinda gets lost in the mix, and the kick needs a little more punch as well. Sounds very good for starting out!

    Feedback on an instrumental mix

    Sounds pretty good, however that very first acoustic guitar could lay off the treble just a touch and given a little bit of a fuller sound. Additionally, that feedback loop at the end that starts around 3:20 needs to be pulled back in volume. It overwhelms it too much. Definitely excellent...

    Looking for feedback as well

    Thanks! One of my friends is begging me to finish it, so I might just have to now. I'm thinking of going into a 3/4 or 4/4 half time heavy groove part after that spacey higher pitched part to try and develop it some more. I'm guessing it would be a really sweet contrast to bring it all down...

    Looking for feedback as well

    I had never listened to that Operation Mindcrime song until you mentioned it. As far as I was concerned, Queensryche only sang that song "Silent Lucidity" :) Now that I listen to it, yeah, I can definitely see a similarity to that song in the intro of Clear Extended. Heavy Tryout was me...

    Challenge for songwriters

    Hey all, I've posted a quick little snippet that can be downloaded on my myspace page @ www.myspace.com/solaris79. It's called "verse sample." I'd like to see if anyone could write a full song out of it or do something unexpected with it just as a challenge to the board. Don't know if anyone...
