Well I've only been doing this for a couple of years, and am an amateur too, but here goes... I got this book from the library and loved it...I spent a long time going through it and doing the different practice exercises... Mixing Audio 2e: Roey Izhaki: 9780240522227: Amazon.com: Books I also...

Love that song. Really neat version you've done. Absolutely the pitch problems are the biggest problem here. I'm an auto-tuning advocate...the way I see it, you can either: 1) settle for an amateur-sounding version 2) spend hours upon hours singing takes and making comps to battle the pitch...

I love the spoken science-nerd vocals. Weird--my favorite compliment. That's cool that you tried your own thing and it turned out this well. My only comment on the mix, is that in the beginning I thought the drums sounded too much like they were in a different physical place than the rest of the...

I love the sound of your voice...I really like that girlish, delicate tone. I think you've got a really good start here...keep going!

This is really good. I think you need to get over the hump of "Am I good enough" and just go all in. You are way more than good enough to warrant it. I think the production needs some cleaning up...get some used monitors or something and practice your mixing. There is a ton anyone can do to...

I love the overall sound. I think you have a framework for a good song...but honestly I'd start over with the lyrics. They don't make sense to me. Currently they sound like an excuse to sing the melody. Then again, I think I take lyrics more seriously than most on here...I usually start with...

Don't do market research! When lots of people hate what you're doing, the few who love it will bond over it and be more excited about it. Like, I don't know...Marilyn Manson?

Nice! I really love the three different melodic threads that are going on in the intro. I thought the vocals sounded terrific. Hard to believe you don't practice. I'm jealous. Vocals in the chorus could be screamier in my opinion. But that's probably not too helpful. I've probably said this...

I did enjoy it. The vocal harmonies are impressive. I liked the end part of the best too, where it gets weird. Thanks for posting.

I listened to Photox and Yargo. I like a lot of the cool sounds you have going on. Overall very pleasant to listen to. As for critique, I liked Yargo better because there seemed to be more variation. Photox sounded cool but was starting to lose my interest before the pattern would change...

Lt. Bob: Thank you! Andrushkwit: I think you might be referring to the reverse reverb being too loud in verse 1? There seems to be a consensus about the intelligibility of the chorus vocals, I'm going to try to improve that. Thanks! Michael: Thanks for the idea on the chorus vocals. When I...

It sounds so good. The harmonies are fantastic. Also, I really enjoyed this lyric: Some things seem so far away But they're really very small

I think he, like, probably wouldn't care for it because I'm suggesting his life's work might be an elaborate hoax.

Vomit Hat Steve: yup 5 words. Thanks, I will try making the drums louder and see how that sounds. I think I agree about the vocoder limitations...I am going to try to sing a regular vocal with it and see how it sounds but the odds aren't good. I often come up with the weird stuff to work around...

Thanks for positive words...also feel free to nitpick too.

Easlern: Thanks for the response. Usually I have too much bass, so good to know. Broken H: You looked it up! There is probably no significance. I am not a huge Glass fan but I think it is very inspiring how he just went off and did his own thing in the face of vitriolic opposition. Thank you...

Hello! I don't have that much time to do this anymore, but here is something new... I always appreciate any reactions whether it's on mixing or my crappy vocals or the lyrics or whatever. Thank you! https://antifersrevenge.bandcamp.com/track/philip-glass-explains-it-all

Oh, I just saw this got rebumped. Oh well. Glad I heard it! I thought it was going to suck when it started with "I did this when I was drunk"...but obviously there was a lot of serious thought and work put into this first! I also really like the panned piano. it really works because of the...

Hey, I liked it. When I heard the tag, I thought, "cool vocal!" then I realized.... It also bothers me that the tag is not on the beat. I know this isn't what you're trying to do, but I think it would be cool if you did a whole, dark and morbid vocal in that tone and just did your own whole...

It's like you're writing about my life! I liked it. I think it sounds exactly right for what it is supposed to be. I thought the vocals were perfect because the imperfections add to it for this song.
