Ummm errr what?

She's not 12! She's not, not, not. (I'm in the featle position now... maybe I'm 12) American Pop Idol 2! Jaimee, don't get a big head, always remember your roots, keep it real, don't compromise, and for god's sake don't let puberty effect your voice. And most of all, listen to your father...

Ummmm, it sounds unfinished. Ha, you already know that. I don't know if it's worth making a song out of. Only you know that. I have a ton of "ideas" that I don't know about. It does have promise. I like the groove and the retro keyboard sounds. Jon

I haven't read all the other posts but I agree with what other's have said about your voice. It sounds great. The tune is awesome. The drums are a little busy and the snare is somewhat poppy, hollow to me. But everything else is great. Jon

Great guitar sound. All the sounds are good in fact. The overall mix is a little bright for me, but not that bad. I'd like the vocals to have a bit less processing ie verb. I would try some different treatments for the verse and chorus vocals. Maybe more intimate and less verb on the verses and...

This sounds great. The song is really nice and the playing is top notch. I don't know if this belongs in a forum for "home recorders" ie, amateurs working mostly on their own. From what I gather this is a full fledged session recording, done at a pro studio with a pro engineer and a pro...

I like the intro with the spooky spoken voice a lot. I'm not sure I like the syncopated drum beat. As far as the mix goes: The vocals are a bit too washed out in reverb for me, but nice performance. The big guitar is a little too big for me, it obscures everything else, but it's a cool sound-...

I won't go into a breakdown of your lyrics, suffice it say that they're brilliant. I've been there too, head on the bar, railing into oblivion, blaming and shaming myself. You're lyrics hit the nail on the head. I can't wait to hear the recording. Post it in the MP3 forum when you're done. Very...

The vocals sound good. The drums have something weird happening in the stereo field- especially on the right side (I'm listening with headphones). I think it's the toms. Otherwise, ummmmmm----should I say it? should I? uhhhhhh..... no, I won't. Jon

I'm listening to "Find the Cost of Freedom"... You might need to roll off some of the low end on the guitars. Great vocal sound and arrangement- really cool. Why does it end so abruptly? Is there more? I want more... This could be an epic. "Politician"... This has a very cool retro rock feel...

Lyrically I'm left a little out in the cold. I think you could do a lot more with the theme. I'm not sure what it's about and maybe if you expanded on your train of thought it would blossom. Right now it doesn't seem quite done. I'm taking in consideration what you said about people not really...

Couldn't get to the music page.

This is exactly what the band I was in a few years back wanted to sound like--and couldn't. Genesis, King Crimson, Rush, and of course something very different. I'm loving this. It wreaks of attention to detail. The song is great and I keeping waiting for the next song to start as if I'm playin...

This is Peter Gabriel meets Gary Numan meets Ozzy. If this is you with the flu, then I suggest you don't get better. I'm not going to comment on the mix, because I just listened to Guernica's song seven times and these are so different sonically; my ears are goofy right now. Funny how the same...

What a wonderful sound. What a mix of styles and emotions. Just great. There's a little ceiling fan thing happening way down low at 2:39, what the hell is that? Oh, its the sax deteriorating into silence- very tasty. I've got it cranked up in my headphones and I'm about to crap my pants it's so...

Kramer-- that process is called "ducking", and I don't think many commercials are mixed that way because it lacks finesse, I know I wouldn't do it that way. I think some stations feed the dj mic into a ducking sidechain so he doesn't have to mix as he's talking over music he has playing in the...

Chris- I've never heard of anyone being a fan of radio compression. They must apply less than most. I always imagined this big military like unit glowing bright red sitting in that little hut underneath the big antenna.

"The only thing I heard was,hearing it as a commerical,the heavy part comes in too loud. The music is good,and the change fits,just seems like it hits too hard.IMHOP " I wouldn't worry too much about the dynamics. If it gets on the radio it will be compressed into oblivion. A good idea when...

About this thread not belonging in this forum- Since this is the only forum I really hang out in and I've gotten to know some of you a little bit and blah blah blah... Jon

I love beer, probably too much. Anyway, it sounds great. Nice dynamics, cool change from funky to hard. You might have to do some remixing to get the V.O. to stand out a little more, but musically it's a very nice job. Jon
