Hey there, I feel like I've got 5 or so pretty good songs recorded to a home recording kind of standard, and I'm thinking what have I got to lose in sending the songs out to a few labels? I don't have the resources to make any kind of fancy artwork or anything, just a burned cd of my music...

thanks for the advice Laynestaley, I'll look into that. How do you clean up mp3 encoding bits? I always wondered why my mp3s sound worse than studio ones...thanks for the compliment, I've never heard of them though! This song's quite different from my other stuff.

Hello, Please give this song a listen and critique it: http://www.nowhereradio.com/tomewer/singles, its the one called See Me Through. Any comments on the recording quality, songwriting, arrangement etc are all appreciated. Thanks!

she told me she was a lesbian...try and fit that into the song!

Still working on the music, it's my first song in an alternate tuning (open D) so it's taking some work. ------ 9 Days ------ Verse: 9 Days since you told me you loved me And now I feel I should apologise I thought you'd held out your hand to guide me But I never looked for the lies And now...

...any more comments?

Yep my drum kit's broken at the moment, the only reason there are no drums. I'm also working on a piano part (similar to the intro guitar) which will come in after the first chorus I think. Unfortunately I have no way of recording piano at the moment. Thanks!

http://www.nowhereradio.com/tomewer/singles Hi there, it's called "A Feeling". I recorded it on Saturday, I'm aware the vox are a bit loose at the moment. And the bass just sounds shit in my opinion, but I'm not sure what to do to make it better! So what do you think? Thanks! Tom

So I figured out how to pan, does anyone know any good sites/articles on what to seperate bla bla? Like are there any standard things to do in regards to harmonies etc.? Thanks.

Thanks for your comments! I'll take it into account, although on the most part I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about :o I don't know how to get a stereo mix! :mad: :(

okay i'm starting to get a message here...no one likes the ending hehe. So most of you seem to be suggesting that I just "vamp" the second chorus out to fade? Do you not think the Verse/Chorus/Verse/Chorus structure is a little boring?

Whoa...it's pretty slow around here huh?! Bump, not that it's needed!

You might be right about the drums...I don't know...maybe would be more applicable when the song gets heavier. Play more low notes eh?! I thought it's pretty low throughout (the bass guitar's tuned to Drop Db) aside from the intro...I don't know what you mean really? What do you think would be...

Uhh...I'm new to this, I don't really know anything about stereo or panning or anythin like that...I'm using N- Track, running everything through an Audiophile 2496. Would it be better to pan things left/right for better effect? Such as main and BG vox and stuff. What do you mean by awkward? I...

Thanks for the comments. I know what you mean about the bass...I don't know how to fix it! EQing or something? I have experimented with verb but have never been able to come up with something satisfactory, in fact the vox do have verb but only a very small amount. I can't seem to find a level...

The vox kinda reminded me of Sisters Of Mercy for some reason...but I'm only 17, I just vaguely remember listening to them as a kid (I could never listen to track 4, cause it said "mother fucker" in it :D). Not my style of music at all, but this was reeeeeally good for what it was if you ask me...

...of sites like CD Luna and CD Baby (the two I've come across), where you send 5 cds out and they take a commission fee for every one sold. Does it work, do you actually get sales through? For an idea of what I'm cooking up right now, have a look here...

http://www.nowhereradio.com/tomewer/singles Hey there, it's the one called End Of. It's complete (aside from drums and fine tuning), so I'd especially like to know what you think. This is one song off my first album now nearing completion, all of the songs are pretty much at this stage. Please...

uhhh yeah, what he said
