    New song for my demo. Please critique!!

    There are no drum loops at all....just samples programmed in to the sequencer. The reason drum kit sounds have like 10 samples for each velocity and then about 10 levels of velocity or whatever so they sound pretty real. It's not all that hard to program if you copy and paste a ton and then...

    New song for my demo. Please critique!!

    Thanks for the comments guys. You know I KNEW that that lead guitar part sucked but I left it in up till now for some unknown reason. It's gone. I need to come up with something better for sure. Also I didn't mean to mislead but the drums are not real. I programmed them in reason using...

    Drum Sound - love it, or hate it?

    I think the recording is pretty darn good....however I love the song. Is this a Jazz cover of the Gorillaz? Sweet.

    Indie Rock/alt country, my dudes

    Dude I think that Spokane is getting sweet music scene. I was just there watching Built to Spill at the Big EZ. Great show. Speaking of Built to Spill your 2nd song kind've reminds me of Built to Spill and Modest mouse (the drinking lyrics) of course with the little country. The ending really...

    a little different

    Dude....I seriously like this. I'm always a big fan of adding electronic sounds with more traditional styles of music. You know it's a little hard to stick with being an instrumental and all but I LOVE the part at 1:44. The synth part is catchy as hell and the gtrs are rippin' behind it. I'm...

    Solo Acoustic Guitar "This Dragon Won't Sleep"

    I think that the playing and sound quality of this is top notch!! I would love to get my hands on some break out tracks of original stuff by you and try to remix it. Putting some beats and stuff behind beautiful guitar stuff like this could be a fresh sound. Let me know.

    New Song-Please critique

    Everyone, Thanks so much for your comments. I've been working hard for a song that I think is good enough to really start promoting and I'm thinking that with this I'm getting close. True-eurt- I agree with you on the Chimes. I think I'm going to try some selective EQ to try and tame some...

    mixing advice, new tune

    Yeah I actually used Izotope's Ozone plug to see the spectrum. I think ozone is sweet but there are free spectrometer's (I think that's what they're called) out there. Do a search on the board and you should find a link to a company that offers a free one. I have one on my laptop so I'll post...

    RayC Thanks for the comments. I agree with some of your suggestions and will try to make some small changes. The lyrics are: You naughtily say, "I"m ready to go" "Tonight I'm your Angel with out her Halo" You say, "Pray on me, cast off all your sins" Where your body ends is where your soul...

    Gimme ya opinions on this 1"I'm Here" Hip Hop

    I like it quite a bit but where's the bass? A sparse baseline would do wonders on this tune I think. I like the drum loop but the first vocal part with all of the backing vox sounded like it didn't fit over the rough drums loop. However the 2nd rap part that starts around 1:20 or so seemed to...

    mixing advice, new tune

    I dropped your track onto ableton Live and checked out it's spectrum. Looks pretty good actually except for there is absolutely no sound above 18k or so. Your equipment must be cutting out all of the very high frequencies. I can hear this as kind've a loss of "space" in the recording. I ran...

    Looking for Opinions.

    I agree with Raw Tracks that the vocals need something. Maybe a bit of compression on the vocals to bring them up and toughen them up a little bit. I also agree that the kick is a little low. Little more low end. I really like the guitar tones though. Especially the cleaner tones. Just my...

    If You Have An Open Mind

    I love all of your stuff. To everybody who checks out their web page listen to the live version of "time to leave" at the bottom. I've been listening to that song on and off for like 9 months. It is frickin' awesome!!!!!!!!! This is an example for me of how putting emotion into a vocal...

    Really old trance track of mine

    Listening to it now on some headphones....sounds sweet. I really like the bell part. Seems like all the synths kind've overwhelm the drums and bass at about 1:40 which kinda looses the trance for me you know. Love the transition at about 2:40. Really like the chill part at 4:35 and the...

    anybody have a clue as to how much i should be charging?

    Good for you Hubba. I think that being able to do this as a career is the real success. Everything after that is just gravy. Good luck and from your last post it seems your pricing is about right. Perhaps just a smidgen low for the market. Raise er up a few bucks and I bet you won't see a...

    anybody have a clue as to how much i should be charging?

    Hubbawho, Sorry but this is going to be an answer to your first question about rates. It seems like everybody here is giving you advice to charge based on your skill. Well in my opinion that has very little to do with what you charge. More important is the MARKET. I mean there are several...

    Only something true could be this funny.

    Yeah, I guess I overdid it claiming it to be totally "funny" and hilarious. I kind've meant that it is both funny in the "ha, ha" way but also a bit funny in the "weird" way. I mean this guy is calling up with the most elaborate excuse for missing rent ever...and he tells us about his...
