Excellent covers!
Performance: Great job with the arrangements and instrumentation. These are some of the best and closest Beatles covers I have heard in a while!
Sound, Recording and Mixing: Overall, very well mixed. A little flat sounding at times, but still not bad. The lead vocals are a little muddy at times, maybe adding a little more EQ and compression would help to put them on top more.
Of course, I don't know anything about your recording setup or equipment but to my ears these are some nice tracks. Are these just demos, or are you going to be selling these?
 
Hi, thanks for compliments :)
We are listening the Beatles for the whole life so we studied arrangements and details :)

As for the recording - we were trying to record a demo cd, just for getting us gigs, not for sale or anything like that, that's way maybe recording is sloppy in places (and of course, lack of knowledge). We recorded it in our old home studio, on computer, but we borrowed an old U87 and SM69. U87 was a bit dark, that's maybe the reason for muddy lead vocal (along with some sore throat).
 
Awesome. You guys are very talented. . . Keep up the good work :)
 
Nice job on Lady Madonna! Lead vocal sounds a little like vintage Leon Russell! Background vocals are spot on....awesome!
 
Very well played!! I enjoyed all of the tracks, and being a huge Beatles fan, I can honestly say that you guys were spot on.
 
Really well done on all counts. I especially liked Lady Madonna, b/c that one takes some solid keyboard playing and delicate vocals.

Felt all four coulda been mixed a little louder. I couldn't get the volume up past "lounge sound." But the balance and performances were excellent.

I sense your singer's native language isn't English, maybe? Either that or he sings with a bit of an accent ... maybe trying a little too hard to sound British. Not a big deal ... just curious.
 
Hi, thank You all :)
We really rehearsed those vocals over and over again. If you want to the a proper job on a Beatles track, you have to sing :)

We are from Croatia, so yes, English is not our native language, and regarding the volume - I didn't do any "mastering" - it didn't matter for that purpose and I really like to avoid limiters when I can afford it :)
 
Without being perfect mimics you capture the energy and the vibe very well. Nice rough edge to most of the instrumentation.
 
Yeah these sound great. Really nice performances and good recording too. Well done! :)
