10 days. :) Sorry, the south of France was calling. I am genuinely sorry for posting it when I did, I should have waited, that was dumb. I don't want to be considered a drive-by harvester in the clinic. Thanks for the feedback everyone. Really, thank you, it's cool bananas to get so many opinions.

I have heard of the Vaselines...but don't know them well. I think twee is the same as indie? I definitely am into music like Luna, Belle and Sebastian but also acoustic folk music like Townes Van Zandt and Donovan. Pete, not sure if he's into 'twee', I think he just has a good ear for something...

They weren't even loops, it was a complete drum track I downloaded. Which made it kind of easy in a way but also hard, as what you get is a set amount of time, and you just have to fill it in so it makes sense. Pete did so much of the the work here, it was definitely a case of, it's too...

Cheers MJB. Interesting people are commenting on the vocal volume. I guess I myself mix my vocals pretty low in my own mixes...at least I think I do, since I received that feedback a little when I was mixing my own songs. I like it like that, since I find it hard to really belt it out there's...

Sorry guys. I uploaded this shortly before going on holiday. Stupid timing I should have waited. Yeh I did struggle with the higher parts. I just managed them...but not so confidently. Aye, gentle it is. Except when I'm talking, it's weird. I talk pretty loud! Thanks for having a listen. I...

Hey guys, Here's another tune I did with the one and only Heatmiser. Again, he did most of the hard work. I sent him 4 notes of guitar, bit of (mellotron) flute and a complete drum track (that I downloaded from Loop Loft). Pete created the rest of the song with guitar and bass, and mixed it...

If you can navigate your way around other software programmes, Reaper really isn't much different and not at all difficult to use. The interface is pretty user friendly and intuitive. Anything you don't understand or can't figure out is so easy to look up as it has an excellent help manual. I...

Yip, I heard it just fine. I like the sudden intro of vocals. I think this might be one of my favourites of yours to date. :) I like the mouth trumpet, but I wonder if it might sound cool with a few yeah yeahs in the background, bit like that song by the Flaming Lips, The Yeah Yeah Yeah song...

Yeh it's sounding really nice Pete, this mix is pretty different to the first one I heard, but I think you've addressed some of the comments and then some. There's a lot more clarity in the different parts which are all really interesting and cool. I still like it a lot. :) Ha, I thought you'd...

This is like one of those blindfolded is it Coke or Pepsi tests that I always wanted to do! I don't really know much about mixing or anything, but the second half sounds better to me. The first half sounds like it was recorded in a school hall or something, or like it's ukelele. The second one...

Man you got a beautiful sound on the guitar. I wasn't sure what to expect when I read the title...for some reason I was thinking it might be a hard rock/metal song. I think it's your avatar. I'm sorry, that's probably kind of offensive after listening to your music. :) I'm glad it wasn't metal...

This is very cool Pete. Not bad for throwing it together over the weekend. I really enjoyed it. Especially the break at the end, that was awesome. :)

Hey Ray, sorry for getting to this so late in the day. Your voice and this tune as a whole reminds me a bit of The Specials. That's probably weird, but whatever. :) You could belt those vocals out with a bit more pride I reckon, but that's easier said than done I know. :) The guitars and bass...

Can't believe you covered this. I love this song. The vocals are really chill and stable, and I think the cover you've done of it is a very sympathetic one. Robert Wyatt's version of this song made it to number 27 (1983) in new zealand apparently. I'd actually never heard it back then, but I was...

Join the club! It really wasn't that bad though. :) I really loved the parts where you go into the 'page turns....' that is really very sweet sounding. I'm not sure about the clap sound at the start, bit harsh, or perhaps just too loud? Cool song though, the mix sounds good.
