    Only something true could be this funny.

    This is a song I whipped together from a voicemail left on a buddies phone. First a little background. My pal is a landlord and he had a "nightmare" tenant. Right about the time that the tenant was late on rent for the 3rd month in a row the tenant called up and left this message on my...

    New Song Please Critique!!!!

    Yeah I actually like the synths too. (If you're being serious that is). I might change the mix a bit but I don't think I can lose the synths...they're part of the song now.

    New Song Please Critique!!!!

    Silentman- I hear what you're saying on the 16th. It definitely could have more of a swing feel to it. On the other hand by being more straight it kind've signals that this is a different part of the song (chorus) then the verses which have a complete swing feel. I'll experiment but a great...

    My first original PC recording

    Just listened to the songs. I think your playing is great. I was nodding my head for sure. You ever want to do some bass on my tracks? I think you'll be very happy with Live. I've used Sonar LE, Cubase VST, and a few other programs but none are as easy to use or "creative" as Live...

    Oh yeah, Sabu...I use the newest version of live 5.01 or something. I got it at Guitar Center for $280. $1 dollar over cost. Pretty good deal.

    Guaranteed to make you piss yourself

    Listening now- Interesting..... The echo at :36 and :39 seems like the timing is off. I would try to match the echo to the tempo more. I actually really like the beat and pad sounds. The bass too. I like the whole song. It's like old school rap crossed with.....jeez I don't know...

    New Song Please Critique!!!!

    Thanks for the replies Thanks for the feedback guys!!! Please keep it coming! I'l post more of my stuff soon. Sabu- I'm glad you like the song. That is really what I'm most concerned about as I figure the audio recording can always be improved. I know the keyboard part is pretty "out of...

    7 views and no response? Darn...I get so excited when I post stuff on here I'm continually checking. I know it pretty much sucks but I'd appreciate it if you would tell me exactly where and how it sucks..............even if you say, "well the entire thing sucks...." at least then I'd know...

    New Song Please Critique!!!!

    This song was done almost completely in Ableton Live. I love that software although you wouldn't think this style of music would work well with it. Drums/drum like sounds are done in reason and looped into live. Guitar is a new Fender Strat played through a Soldano amp into a sm57 into a...

    WARNING:amateurish, folkish, child's lullaby

    I like the song. Can't decide which one I like better actually. The first version is kind've over the top but it is a kid's song after all. I agree that the bells should stay but the organ should go. Cool song.

    advice from those who program their own drums

    The reason drum kits refill has some drums that sound very realistic...at least to my ears. But you have to use the NNXT.

    First MP3 post

    Thank you very much for the responses. Dogman- I set up the 4033 in my bedroom running directly into the 1820m. I have read that the pre's on this card sound very good and to me that is very true. In a studio where I recorded a quick demo a couple years ago my voice sounded dull. The 4033...

    First MP3 post

    Yeah I know about the vocals. Problem is the guitar and vocals were out of tune because they were both just quick practice takes. Now I'm posting it so I deserve what I get. I built a new computer with: AMD 64 3200 I think? 1 gig ram Soundcard is an EMU 1820M which so far I love. Just got...

    Feedback on lyrics please!!!!

    Thanks for the comments Rob. First off I probably didn't write the lyrics down in the best way in my original post. The long line followed by short line does work but it's really more like one long line. I write all of my lyrics during the writing of melody so one good thing about them is...
