Thanks for the additional comments. Mouth noise remains a problem...the verse might sound better a littler slower TripleM...but to be honest I'm not rerecording those vocals if I can avoid it, it takes me a super long time. Schwarzenyaeger, that's interesting. I didn't compress them because...

This is truly great. And very weird. I don't think Bush clips are cliche (anymore!)

Good singing! I like the song a lot and had never heard it before either. I like the slow pace and the arrangement. There was one thing that struck me as far as improvements. I kept feeling like the downbeat should be louder, more driving, punchier. To sort of balance out the slow pace if that...

OK thank you everyone! I am convinced. I'll try to replace the drums.

Thanks Jimmy. MJB and others: I used Logic's Ultrabeat (a mix of "Techno 808" and "Electrobump") for the drum sounds. I'm convinced the clap at least needs to be changed. What I'm trying to figure out is: Is it that people don't like techno-sounding drums in general? (in which case too bad)...

Heatmiser: Yes I did tune the verses (actually all of it) with Logic's flex pitch so it may be artifacts from the tuning that you are hearing. There is also an ensemble plug in on the verses. For the chorus it's actually 7 tracks of vocals. The first one has an amp on it. The other 6 have delay...

Thanks for listening RAMI. Yeah it does sound kind of retro. I like it but can see how others might not!

Hello! Here's a new song, I'd appreciate any feedback on it. Feel free to criticize whatever. My goal is to have five as-finished-as-I-can-get-them songs by the end of April. So thanks for any suggestions you have to make this better!--Jessica https://soundcloud.com/jessicazin/rabbit-can-read

Thanks for the feedback. DM60: Yeah I agree about the piano. I will try to get it sounding bigger and fuller. I always get into trouble with too much bass. I will try to fix that. There's not really supposed to be much in the way of drums. I agree the vocals are too loud, thanks, that's hard to...

Weird! I liked it! Reminded me of this Tom Waits song, which I love: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6Ta3H-ck6s

Well I've got no particular expertise on this type of music (or really mixing in general) but that's never stopped me before so... I thought it sounded really good, nice balance regarding high and low pitches, fast and slow rhythms...Of course because there is not a melody per se it does seem...

New song! I'm interested in any type of feedback, feel free to comment on lyrics, melody, meaning, vocal performance, mix, limitations of midi instruments, white people rapping or whatever, etc. Thanks! https://soundcloud.com/jessicazin/tuva-or-bust-1

Well I almost couldn't listen because of the title! But I really liked it. I love the tone of both of your voices. And I like the quality of two so very different voices in one song. I didn't notice anything on the volume levels, I like the doubling of Trish's voice. (If you did two takes, and...

Wow. Impressive. My only comment is that I like the middle part, and I think that since the rhythm is changing so dramatically there, the bass guitar should be louder in the middle part to sort of emphasize that rhythmic change. (Argh never mind. I think it's just my monitor's lack of low end.)

First off, you are amazing singer...wow! Nice high range, really pretty sound. What a lot of cool sounds there are in the Portuguese language. I like the song itself a lot. I'm not so great at mixing myself but for what it's worth... I don't think I like the panning back and forth going on...

I like the song and the arrangement, esp. the bass part. I think the second version does have too much reverb on the vocals now. Doesn't seem to suit the style of the music. You have a great-sounding voice, and in my opinion this song would be better served by more growling and creepiness and a...

Very cool song. Here are my two random comments: I feel like the song would be better served if you sang the vocal louder. (Not turn up the volume, re-sing and kind of wail on it.) It sounds to me like you're holding back and singing too softly, which contradicts the meaning of the lyrics (makes...

For those who are interested, here is Jimmy's finished mix after us going back and forth for a while. I am very happy with it! Thank you Jimmy. https://soundcloud.com/jessicazin/ride-1

Thanks for the explanations. I get it now. It's like being popular. So, it's EXACTLY like playing Sorority Life.

But now I REALLY WANT TO KNOW because no one will tell me! I should probably just drop it though, because this one time, I got really addicted to playing "Sorority Life" on Facebook. I stayed up too late at night stealing boyfriends and trying to get on the leaderboard. It sounds like this...
