Oh Sorry..Wasn't planning on trying to sell this to you...

Hey there. I recently recorded some songs as the upright bass payer with some friends who had some great songs. I sang backing vocals (High) also. These recordings were a blast to make. We recently came together as a band and it just felt right, so we wanted to capture the moment and make some...

Thank you all for listening and taking the time to comment. I will put some of these to use, especially Gecko and Stu. Thanks Y'all.

Thanks for the feedback...Lol Steve..sorry to disappoint. This set of songs are meant to be sad and sappy, yes. There is some rocking out that happens around here too. Ill post some of that sometime also. I spent some time on the mix yesterday using your feedback. I was able to edit out one or...

THanks. Yes those are the sound of my mouth opening...

Im listening at work and not at my desk, but sounds really good man. Very tight sound. I might suggest bringing up the vocals just a hair. But damn cool and yes, the guitar playing and vocals smack of the 80s.. I like the bridge also. I think the use of the wah at the top is a bit overbearing...

Im way happier with the second mix. Take a listen if you heard the first. Or compare and let me know how I can make it better. Thanks!

Thanks Mjphotos. That third guitar has been bugging me also...thanks

Thanks Yall for the feedback and for taking the time to listen. I really appreciate it! Armistice, Schwarz.... I will have to go back and assess the backing vocals and decide how to pan or balance them. There are two tracks there somewhere... I thought the AMAZINGLY SAD comment in my OP would...

Please take a listen to this AMAZINGLY SAD track and give me some mixing feedback. ;) So Broken Down Thanks! Jason

OK, Here is an updated mix with all of your feedback used in some form or other. Panned the instruments differently and brought the vocals down into the mix a bit. I also scooped out the whole mix at around 3-4k and brought in a bit more highs to compensate.

Hell yea! More guitar!!

Thanks for the specific feedback on frequencies, TripleM. Just what I need. Im not happy with the briteness either. too much sibilance in the vocal for sure. I picked the wrong mastering comp...

Great feedback gents. Thanks also for the compliments. I really appreciate it. IT's funny, Garageband tends output mp3s that sound quite a bit more compressed than they sound when mixing. It always bites me in the ass when it comes to vocal presence. Jason

Hows it going folks? Been a while since I have posted anything. Here are a few solo tracks. All recorded on my Macbook pro with Garageband with my Presonus 16.0.2 and a few mics. I played all the instruments on every song but Give Me A Way....I do have a bunch of other DAWS, have recorded with...
