    Please help me defrost my nuts

    Cheapest oil heater DO NOT get the cheapest model of the oil heater, get at the very least the next step up, $60.00 - $70.00 . The cheapest one uses a LOT more electricity for much less heat. Always keep it on at least it's lowest setting, they really do take a while to heat up. The $70...

    My CD, such as it is.

    A wee listen to the Hags upon the Churn : :D ---------------------------------------------------------- IMHO, when electrifying this genre, and rocking the old celtics, it is very, very easy to be tacky as hell. You have done this very tastefully. The forms, you stick very close to the forms...

    Dissonant Creations:Power Metal

    B. SABBATH has invaded your soullllllllll :D . Cool effect at 00:23, sounds like a gated-limited tubeage stuff ... Voice is understandable, good pronunciation, but it's buried in the mix a bit. On headphones I can just understand the words, on speakers it's a real challenge. At 1:13, of...

    New Third Level tune.

    I like this, and it's a jammer for violin for sure. Any solo instrument can fit over this, it's a nice bed for anyone to stretch out on.

    Neil Young Alert: After The Gold Rush - Cover

    Guitar sound is excellent. Bright with a touch of jangle, still has some bottom to make it rounded. You might want to roll the top of the guitar off a tiny, tiny touch and give us a touch more mids, but just a touch, because I've learned that can quickly accumlate as mud. Just a bit too much...

    chrisharris : ---------------- Thanks for the insightful review. This has been a very, challenging mix for me because it is right at my current level of sophistication as a mixing engineer. I'm dealing with four elements. Vocal, acoustic guitar, violin and the four string sections. Long...

    Acoustic # 1 - I Wonder Why This Is?

    I just knew when I saw your matter of fact pronouncement about the 'acoustic' album ... the 14 songs ... the 'goal' ... I just knew I was in for a treat with this first one. And I was right. Tough ... challenging lyric to perform, I'd like to hear you hold back a bit on this first verse, take...

    hit potential

    It is my understanding, that of almost all the instruments, the actual resource recorded tracks of drums are absolutely critical. In other words ... pour all your energies with respect to drums in developing a strong recording set-up and getting the BEST drum tracks you possibly can ...

    Me Against the World Demo

    I like you punk bitches ! I'm lame witcha' dodes ! Good instrument performances, you are true to the genre, never 'pretentously punk' While the vocal is mixed on top ... out front, the actual performance of the vocal is lacking a bit. Pronunciation, timing etc ... That takes practice, hell...

    hit potential

    Here is how you deal with the 'nasally high up'. Take the strongest track and either clone it, or take a good solid doubling of that track. One track will be EQ'd on the top end, or it will be run through a filter to 'smooth' it. Check out SoundForge's 'smooth-enhance' filter. Smooth it by at...
