Hmmm.... how do I say this as politely as possible? ah - got it... there are a number of sonic issu---- ach! I can't do it....... :eek:

Dude - seriously...... I'm actually worse-off for having listened to these er, "songs"....

The recordings are absolutely some of the worst I've ever heard... and re-mixing them is not going to help a bit, because the performances are just as bad as the recordings. Ever hear of the concepts of timing and meter? Song arrangement?? How about vocal talent???

Before you record any more , um, "songs" - I strongly suggest you work on your singing and guitar-playing.... once you get a handle on those skills, you can start looking at recording, which requires a completely different set of skills. (Just because you can play it, doesn't mean you have the skills to record it!)

Good luck in your endeavours.
 
I have to agrree with the others.

This was a joke right? :rolleyes:
 
I heard them all!

Many of interesting ideas, riffs and harmonies.
But I think you misunderstood whole shit about recording and mixing.
It's hard work, really hard work what needs a lot of time skills and patience.
Sometimes I was thinking this was all big joke but listening through it realised that nobody spends so much time just to make a joke.
Man you are born to write the songs!
Take your time you need and do all things right.
Your first song sounds like somebody tried to sabotage it.

Still, I think you've got a big, big potential!
Take it easy!

They are all cover songs, of course! It's written above all links

I meant to say something about his translations, visions and performances.
It's difficult to explain it but I still think that he is born for it.
I'm sure he has his material but there is nobody to put him in right way.
With some discipline and help by other musicians he'll be something!

It's really hard to explain in English for me. I'm weird too in some way.
Maybe that's why I am only one who comes with any positive criticism

I'm sorry I did not explain in the first place what I really meant.

I find it difficult to call those "performances".... a well-performed arrangment of a cover song definitely has merit....

These ones, however, have a very long way to go before I could call them "performances!"
 
well the recording isnt too bad i think for the stuff that he used. :rolleyes:
