Thanks so much for the listen and the kind words! 🙂

Exactly. 😉 Those YT channels are usually pretty full-time jobs, especially at their level.

Nice playing! First impression is that it sounds overall a bit dry for this style. Also, the transition at 2:58 sounded fairly abrupt. Sounds as though the downbeat was maybe a bit late or something there? Or maybe the drum fill leading into it is rushed. Something sounds not smooth there...

Thanks much for the listen and comments. This is not an original; it's a cover of a Fleet Foxes song. The acoustic is actually panned a bit left, but not too severely - maybe about 40% L.

Damn ... I've had all kinds of issues with this. It'll seem fine, and then all of the sudden, I'll notice a timing issue. 😐 Thanks for pointing it out!

Thanks for the feedback! You're right about the panning of the mando and fiddle - I didn't even think of that! I didn't notice any phase issues. I did try flipping the polarity both ways, but the difference was pretty negligible.

@mark skinner Thanks so much for the listen and the kind words. Yes, they are a great band! @BTStudio Thanks! @Papanate Thanks for the listen! Yes, I did use both of those things, but I think it's just mainly the instrumentation. There's no bass guitar, so, other than the Djembe drum, there's...

Hey y'all, I actually have a full video of this one to share once we get the mix finalized. Any comments appreciated. Thanks! Edit: Here's the video for anyone that would prefer the video experience. 😉

I think this is a great question and a good discussion to bring up. I don't see it as a skeptical, cynical view; it's just that, as you mentioned, the lines of "creativity" and "authorship" are being blurred more and more all the time. I remember a thread in here a while back where someone said...

We need to know the unit you have - and why you feel you need more gear - before we can make recommendations.

Hey y'all, I couldn't really find a good spot for this thread, so please feel free to move it mods. I'm looking for some horn players to collaborate on a jazz tune I've written. It's in the modal jazz vein, similar to Kind of Blue-era Miles. I'm looking for a trumpet and tenor/alto sax to play...

Did you take it down or something?

@TripleM Thanks for the listen and comments. That's another vote for less verb; I'll definitely give that a shot. I agree about the kick and will see if I can add a bit of girth. @dobro Thanks much for the listen and the kind words. The drums are EZDrummer 3. That's the Indie kit played with...

@DM60 Thanks for the listen and the comments! Good stuff to try. @Thekesslerboy Thanks for the kind words. I have tried all kinds of things with regard to the arrangement and instrumentation - both for the intro parts and the percussion bits. Still kind of experimenting really. We do play this...

Catchy tune, and nice performances. I agree with DM60 that it might be a tad on the dry side. Fun song.

Just listened to mix 4. I didn't hear too much that sounded out of place. Nice performances all around and cool guitar sound. My only comment would have to do with the arrangement - just seemed a bit monotonous to me. But maybe that's common with this genre? I'm not too familiar with shoegaze...

Very nice cover of this one. I liked the sounds and tones all around - no real nits there. The only things I noticed were that the vocals got just a little pitchy here and there on a word or two and that the programmed drum part at the choruses sounds a little clumsy. It kind of seems to miss...

Hey y'all, This is my first pass at this one. Any comments welcome. Thanks!

@Flyguitarfish Thanks much! I'll look at the guitar solo level. @Bulls Hit Thanks for the listen. That's a good idea on the vocals; I'll give it a shot. ?

@DM60 Thanks for the listen! @Armistice Thanks! @TripleM Thanks for the listen and the comments. I hear what you're talking about with the acoustic. ?
