Brad Smith Thanks to HR and it's members for all the learning, critiques and collaborations. :D

Every one of these songs has been through the clinic here, so I just wanted to share the final product with you. Many of you have helped critique and a few of you I've collaborated with on these songs. If you want to give it a listen, that would be great, if you want to buy it, well, that...

LMAO!:laughings: Then my jaw hit my knees! :eek: That is seriously good brutha! Please tell me you had to work hard on this, cuz I'm really gonna hate you if say it was a breeze. You have got to find a way for Metallica to hear that - I think they would dig it. Well done. :cool:

Whoa man! I love that breakdown a-la Accept and then the smokin' lead! That got me excited :eek::D. Great song Joe! You better You Tube that band of yours so we can see the carnage for ourselves ;):):D:cool:

Sick with dat guit-stick bro!!!:eek: In other words, nice guitar playing. This is a new approach for you, I think. The atmosphere took me back to Frank Gambale or something. The drums were a little understated, but it works. I did keep hearing this annoying sound like a digital clip around...

Oh, oops, that was "redemptive mix", I didn't see #22 post, which is even better yet - no more boomy imo. Nice :)

With the exception of the guitar just a little boomy at times, the final mix turned out to be pretty good. You've done a great job, as usual, of bringing the artist right into the listeners personal space - just like a personal concert. Well done sir. :D:D:cool:

Well done man, nice site too!

You didn't really mic an acoustic amp did you? :eek: :spank: With the vocal, the bridge was the only part when the 'power' approached normal - the chorus needs the same treatment or better. The vocalist needs to get back in there and belt that chorus out, adding a higher harmony as well to mix...

Great comeback tune! I too was on an long vacation and just got back - trying to readjust. I love a good 80-ish tune too as you know. This was almost too carefully crafted to be on the same level as most 80's tunes! It's way better. I just thought that maybe the acoustic guitar was a bit...

Hey Patrick, This is sounding really good! I think you have found your niche here. I think the mix sounds pretty reasonable for a video game track. Well done man. :):D:cool:

This was a VERY ambitious (well known and idolized by many including myself) song to choose! I guess I'll start with a positive: Your voice is good, and capable to handle a song like this. However, perhaps you should have started with something easier, because your performance misses the mark...

Well, I'm late as usual, PI already said what I was gonna say :(. I like the snare and the drum sound, and I knew you mixed in some samples because it sounded like a studio/album drum sound, and not just the sound of a dude playing drums in a room (which I know a lot of people like and, I do...

Nice little ditty! :D Maybe spread some stuff out some more, other than that, not bad.

Such a beautifully brutal grind here! I was really wishing for some singing here and there , and not just Cookie-Monster the whole time - even a Pantera-like-angry singing woulda been cool for me, but it's not my song :). Drums could be more prominent all together, still a pretty decent mix to...

Thanks for the listen GZ! My acoustic sound is not worthy of your ears, sorry for any damage it may have caused! Someday, when I spend more than a couple hundred $ on guitars and mics, then, just maybe, I can begin to get closer :D;):cool:

Jason, yea, I fussed with it a little with a cheap (more likely misused) quantizer! I'm not going to leave it like that, I was just trying to shore up a few minor feels that were bugging me (only because, you know how it is when you've heard a song SO many times and then it's different (human)...

Ok, that was fast dude, you caught me flat footed and away from my cave! Thank You. Alright, I did a fast mix with the treated, stereo drum track and a scratch guitar noodle I uncovered and decided to toss that sucker in too :D. It almost sounds like a real recording, I think ;):)...

Dave, Joe and Jason - Wow, really not the response I thought I'd get from this. But, I just learned something about my voice and songwriting. This is more of my natural range - I really want to be a hard rocker, but I think this is where my voice wants to be for now. About the drums...

Thanks for listening Dave. 70's rock I can live with :D! I'm glad you poked around my Soundcloud - if you compared the vocals on "Saturday" to the vocals on "You", then you've compared my voice to the real talent of Joe Mizzi. Lol - I don't compare :). He's done the vocals for a few of my...
