LOL! Oh the humanity. Hope you've got a sense of humour schenkerguy. Don't feel TOO insulted :)

Nice tune and nice FX on the guitar. I liked the melody at the start and at the end, but the middle sounded too synth for my tastes. Actually, I really liked the melody towards the end, especially that part where the wah guitar switches to the distorted guitar. The song is crying out for a...

Here is a cover of The POLICE - 'Message in a Bottle' that I did with my band some time ago on some crappy equipment. They were a very young band...I was the oldest by a couple of years. Everyone else under 19 at the time! Enjoy this rough track. Right click and save target...

The tune is excellent. /QUOTE] Thanks! Can't wait till I record it with drums and electrics. My brother is an excellent drummer and I actually wrote the song specifically for drums. If you know of a song called Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs, that's the groove I eventually want to get. Yes, I...

Hi lynx, I'm surprised you haven't got any responses yet. I thought you sounded pretty good on that track. Did you write the song? I've listened to many songs here as well as on recordingproject.com and the biggest problem with a lot of songs is simply off tune vocals. I'm happy to say that you...

Dave, I had a listen to Gravity. You sound like you put a fair amount of effort into it, so good job in that regard. Technically, the music is ok. The drums annoyed me. I didn't like all the double bass rebound kicks. It was a tad overdone. I can't really say anything about the guitar except...

Thank you for the comments. I don't hear the muddiness on my computer speakers. I can hear the individual bass notes, but it may be a bit loud. I can't go back and remix it though, because I had to delete the tracks to free up enough memory to produce the final wav file doh. Oh well, it was just...

It would help if I posted the song...right click and save target: http://www.geocities.com/jonathantan77/jack.mp3

Hi everyone Here's a fun song I wrote called 'What would Jack do?'. It's an unplugged version since my drummer brother is having exams and doesn't have time to drum it for me. Firstly, the sad part: For those who follow the TV series Stargate: SG1, you'll recognise the lyrics as being about the...

Hi Joro I thought the bass was a little too loud. I also hear the 'pop'. That everyone else mentioned. Regarding the song itself, I agree with what's been said. YOu need a melody (whether it be singing or an instrumental solo) and some variation (like a chorus). I usually find that putting a...

More experience? Well, I think my mixing needs experience, period. I don't think I even know what vocal compression is, but I'll look into it. I know my little MR-8 has panning facilities, so I'll experiment on that too. Thanks for the tips. Jon

I presume you're referring to the song 'Love4ever'. I quite liked it. It would be great to perform that live, I'm sure. The thing I liked the most was the sound of the guitars. You got a good tone with the lead, a nice reverb on the the rhythm and a solid tight sound on the bass. My favourite is...

Lol at jfrog! I tend to write with an instrument and hum along to the chords. Once I have some idea of the concept and the chords, then I'll work on getting a verse or the chorus. At this point, the song is pretty much written, I will then work on the rest of the lyrics separately. Works for...

A good performance all round! I particularly like the bass and the drums are interesting. Fantastic intro. With a piece that has no obvious flaws, my comments only relate to my personal preferences. The drums are interesting, but at 0:56, just sounds a little sloppy with the fill in. It's...

The mixing was a little unbalanced with the bass a tad loud and the keyboards being too distant. The piano doesn't sound full. But it's just a live mix, so don't worry too much about that. The song sounds like a simple folkish/bluesy song, but I think the arrangement and musicianship is trying...

The mp3 is of a very low bitrate, so I can't really comment on the production. I like the song though. Are you a somewhat experienced songwriter? You sound like it. I'm fairly new to this forum, but one thing that I don't see addressed very often here is the arrangement of the song. That's the...

Thanks for listening. I'm not sure what to do about the overdrive guitar tone. It sounds good out of the amp. It sounded good when mixing with headphones, but after converting the file to wav and downloading it to computer, I also noticed it that it sounds thin. One problem was that the guitar I...

Thanks for your patience dachay2tnr. I'm sorry, but geocities never seems all that reliable. btw, I heard your cover of Chicago's 'Does anybody know what time it is'. I loved it. I'm sure it helps that I love the band too :) Keep up the great work. Jon

Hi folks, Been lurking on this forum for a while now. Up to now I've only participated by reading other people's posts and I've learnt a lot. I recently had the chance to do some recording, so I thought I'd post it here. The song is Georgy Porgy, orignally performed by Toto. I don't have...
