This reminds me of something but I can't put my finger on it. The Notwist meets clap your blabla? Dunno. Anyways, it's really cool, excellent music to do dishes to (sorry pure.fusion). I agree with the vocals, they can come up because they're good. And I'd lower the guitars. 1:26-1:33 e.g. is a...

Hi Kim, Nice work, better than your previous submission I think. I think the vocals are a bit too loud here and there (3:12 e.g.). In some parts the guitars go out of sync with the drums, I don't hear it as much with the keys but 1:15-1:50 and onwards the slow arpeggio on the left is lagging...

wow, I missed this one. Nice listen. Very cool bass sound. Probably not what you want to hear but I think there's too much whoomp to the BD, it gets into my brain. (I also wouldn't change the pan of the guitars in the intro. There, said it). And that's the third time I've laughed at "lil...

Most of the sounds are well placed I find. I'm missing a bass, the piano's not cutting it, neither are the strings. That's all I'd add. Then there's the voice... It closes in and recedes throughout the song, sounds like a side-chain compression thing but it could be automation. Some words also...

Well why would we wait? Surely steve's stuff still sounds singularly swell? Better bring my bonus, bitch. I find it hard to think of mixing criticisms for songs that have such a peculiarly consistent sound to them. So take with salt. Maybe I'd like to hear some of the background sounds more...

Yeah, see, I misplaced my magical drop-capo and I actually tried my normal capo before I thought of dropping and it made me think of a banjo. That's a deal-breaker. @muttley600 A gauge per semitone huh? That sounds overzealous to a noob like me. Your suggestion is what's on my plate for...

Hehe I couldn't help smiling throughout this. I don't think I can be of much mixing use, if you're doing surround I should probably just keep my trap shut. There's this little something in the flute, there's a note near the end (2:07) that sounds a bit botched? Too much air not enough tone or...

Hi, I was wondering how far I could drop all the strings on my electric guitar before anything goes wrong. I think I need 2 full tones before I can reach the high vocals. Is that ok for the guitar?

Hi all, I apologize for my last post, had a small breakdown there. I know this post doesn't belong in the clinic but I impulsively closed my last thread. Feel free to remove after a while. It's just hard, as most of you probably know, to expose myself and take criticism. It's a bad trait of...

@FadeToMuffins Hi Goliath, David here. Double tracking, good call, I might give it a try if I can still muster the courage. Other than that... that bad huh? I'm just about to give up on making music right now. I mean if this piece enthuses me that much and all people can say is how bad the...

Hey this is cool. Nice and clear sounds on a fun song. I personally like a bit more lows. Those drums sound really good man, maybe a bit too much high on the hats. 1:33 the vocals are a-poppin' on the "uP". Backing vocals are great. The only real criticism I would have is to make the vocal...

@heatmiser thanks for listening (multiple times!). I'll add +1 to the bad guitars category. Ok so I'll post just the guitars because I'm thinking maybe there's another instrument that's causing problems because the guitars really don't have a lot of lows. See end of post. @tonesponge I'm also...

Oh I'm most probably overthinking it. I do plan to sit down one of these days and say "fuck it" and just rock out as you say, but right now it's all new and shiny and shit. But seriously, my lead sounds quite close to this, no? - even though that might not be what I want, I just happened on it...

I use the Logic built-in guitar amp, and I have no idea if it's particularly good or bad. So let me pick your brain. So far I've worked like this: DI guitar, tweak the pure sound to something I like (good balance between highs and mids/lows mostly), then add amp simulator, fiddle until I like...

@kcearl Yeah the drums would like more attention for sure, especially in the small break in the middle. I did try to make sure the snare, kick, and copper punch through the rest of the mix and on my monitors, celestions and headphones it seems to work. I noticed they get buried a little though...

I was asking myself this question. Bought myself my first electric guitar (ltd ec-50) a couple of days ago, thought I'd take her for a spin. Yes it's a "her" and yes I'm in love. This is still just a doodle really, I'll be making it full-blown, vocals and all. I've learned so much since I...

Thump thump, here we go. Kick sounds great together with other layers but I've heard better bouncing by itself. Nice synths, some creative stuff in there. That 2:31 one is badass. Pzieiewwww all over the spectrum. The organ-like thing creeping in at 3:28, also remarkable, maybe turn that one...

I'm not an expert by any means, but I like this so I'll give you my thoughts. All the layers from 3:58 on fit well together, it's kind of the superstructure of the whole song so if it sounds good that's good news. That's where you left the lower tones out so my advice is to take another look at...

phew. No holds barred there. Solid stuff indeed. Intro's fine imo and the voice is very impressive, I wouldn't worry about those. Overall sound fits the genre like a glove. You said the mix needs redoing so it might not be worth pointing out, but I would take a look at the snare. There's...

This a nice song, I really like the chorus. Kick is too bouncy for me, it's almost a house music kick. I agree the rim's too loud, and a bit too thin I think. Guitar sounds good, maybe a little reverb? That thing that comes in at 0:52 sends up a couple of red flags. It's off key for one, and I...
