Of course you did... it's about sailors and stuff...

I'm digging it to tho... Prolly cause I live at the beach...



Great song Chris... I'm really digging it... I'll leave it to others to critique...

[chrisharris]

I'll critique your thread title. It's a nice thread title. Kinda' subtle and vague, but yet, it IMMEDIATELY caught my attention. If you had been able to somehow incorporate the word "Jessie" in the title, while still using nothing but dots, that would have been perfect, but that seems impossible to me, so I'll just go with "nice thread title."

Ok, it's a very cool, ethereal song. Easy on the ears, good for the soul. It'd be great if you could get a little more really low end in the song earlier...and maybe altogether. What's that instrument I'm thinking of...a "djembe?" I'm sure I misspelled that, but you probably know what I mean. Man, if you could throw something like that in there to occupy the very low end to balance this out just a bit, I'd be able to hate you for your perfection.

[edit] I can hear something lowendy in there...it's just way low. Turn that up...timpany or something? Man, I suck at percussion guesses.

You've got a really cool voice. Awesome song. Very cool feel to it. It reminds me of System of a Down for some reason. I guess it's your voice mixed with the tone of the song.

Good work.

Would you like to mix this song Disposable?

[Disposable]

Ah... you know me so well... I love mixing this kind of stuff.
I don't think I'm very good at it but it sure is fun.

I'd love to have a go. I definitely need the practice.

Great song really, I find that all the songs you post have a very particuliar energy to it, having studied music for more then 10 years, I have to admit that you have a very unique talent for composition. In other words, you know how to drive a song :P

On a technical point of view, were did you get your drum samples? I really liked the snare, mind to share this technical aspect?

Its from sample tank.
I just slathered it in hall reverb.
If you participate in PMC10 youll be able to mix it for yourself.

About that email, you want me to load it directly to your server yes?

If yes,,,email me an idiot proof manual please.

Im on a mac.

[Strave]

Hey man,

Really different song, I like it. What did you use for those strings at the end? They sound nice (especially the way you can control the release). Again good song.

[Spaztic]

I like the song as well, wish there were some backing vocals

Crap...I don't know an FTP proggy for MAC.

I tried to D/L from your server, but it's not there. Nevermind, your link was bad, but I found it. I will upload asap, and send you the link. It will take a bit, I may be gone before the link is active, but it will be up in a couple hours max.

Cool song. Excellent arrangement. I would prefer a little less processing on the vocal and acoustic, but it doesn't really bug me too much. Is there some auto-tune on that lead vox? Hard to tell, but something just doesn't seem quite right. Anyway, nice work!

Yup, tiny bits of auto-tune.
But not much.
Thanks for the listen scrubs.
