Hello, friends. I put my drum kit together from scratch last night and played a quick song to see how it sounded when recorded. I picked an Angry Samoans song because many of their songs are less than a minute, and this particular one has a lot of 18" floor tom in it (at least the way I...

I forgot to mention that they're also not very good. Not sure how that one slipped my mind. That is a shame. I never had guys that I really consider "friends" fuck themselves up on that shit, but I had some acquaintances that were really cool guys that I was always happy to see every now and...

The only difference I can tell about the second one ("Womb Reborn"- nice) is that the slapback doesn't seem to last as long or isn't as loud at the end where it hits at the extreme left side. What else did you do to it?

Thanks. I decided I'm not even going to fuck with this one. If anything I might lower the snare a little, but so little that it's not even worth it. A bum note? Since you're British, that gave me pause. I'm not sure I want to know what you meant. Thanks. I was wondering how much I...

I like the piano sound that you have in the beginning, around 2:03, and then around 3:40. I could do without the church organ sound during the verses and then the Styx-like keyboard that comes in after them. However, I only listened to the original once when I was comparing it to your previous...

Listening on speakers that are not monitors, I can say the mix sounded fine. I agree that some panning on the background vocal might make it sound better... the way it is now, it seems to start in the middle and the echo comes out to the left. Maybe if it started to the right and then the echo...

I'm on west coast time now, MF! I can give you a cursory critique already! The reduction in snare volume is a big improvement. Listening to the two mixes side by side, this is easy to tell. The other thing I wanted to judge was whether or not the bass sounds fuller in your remix, but on the...

Thanks. That's the worst snare sound I think I ever got on a song. I probably knocked the mic out of position or something. Sounds like you ran with a pretty hardcore crew. Makes me wonder if even those of you who became family men didn't still plant a few bodies on that desolate stretch...

I listened to mix #4. The vocal's actually breaking up a bit, isn't it? Was it recorded hot? Really nice song, though. And nice playing. Really like the piano.

Jesus Christ. I feel bad for asking. Get some sleep!

So where the hell is it? Link isn't working. I want to hear some pimp rock.

When's the remix coming out?

If anyone can appreciate a good rambling, it's me. Vocals aren't my strong suit, but I must admit I began finding them fun to do at some point in my home recording career. Nothing like yelling into a mic in the basement at 2am. "A man's got to know his limitations" is an excellent Dirty Harry...

If you Minnesotans can do a cover of "Kids Don't Follow" with the same drum, bass and guitar sound as you have in this song, it would sound good. I am no longer a kid, and "cannot follow" this noise rock of yours. But you did a good job recording it.

I think these drums sound great. I'm not even going to comment on the rest of it. Hell of a job getting the drums to sound like this. I'll update this so you don't get the impression I thought the rest of it sucked. I always focus on the drums first and then listen to the rest of the...

Thanks, glad to see you are still thriving, yourself. I wanted to make sure it was a live bass before I complimented you on it. Stick a little more low in it and let's see how it sounds. Is your new Marshall a Creamback? I recently got the same model, but it's a Creamback.

Hello, friends. I'm about to screw around with a couple more songs I did before my temporary recording cessation. I did all the recording and mixing with these with my Tascam DP-24; the remixing I'm about to do will be done in Reaper. Two major differences in the recordings- I recorded "Happy...

I say turn up that new Marshall and make the guitars louder. I think the snare and cymbals are a little too much in front. Is that a live bass, or emulated? Either way, personally I think it could use a little more bottom end. I kind of like the tone, but it sounds a little thin for a song...

Get the heck out of here, you did the one Clash song I like. I'm listening on shit speakers as is my custom, but I've heard live stuff you put up here before and it sounded better than this, as far as the recording quality. Drums are a little weak-sounding, especially the kick. It's tough to...

I'm not sure which song you were talking about. Since neither of the songs discusses burning down churches, raping nuns with votive candles or digging up corpses for the purposes of necrophilia, I'm not sure which one a guy into death metal would have heard before. But I appreciate the...
