Is This Demo I've Created Any Good?

All thoughts are welcomed .

I shouldn't have said good, because that makes it seem like I'm begging for attention. I'm not really sure how to word that properly . Are the songs effective at portraying the messages I I have written? Is there obvious dissonance? Are my vocals controlled well enough or do I require a lot more careful practising?

Hi Aaron I'm listening to the demo as I'm writing this. After the soothing guitar instrumental Dim Star kicked in. I actually am thoroughly enjoying it. The unexpected dark turns in the melody really hook me. And your voice has a grungy soulful design to it. I wish you'd lived in Tampa so we could write and jam together. I'll be back after I get time to listen to more. Dim Star kicks ass. I'm totally serious in my thinking of wanting to write together Dark acoustic melodies are my style brotha!

Back again on Trust. The feeling and intonation on the notes is so cool I dig it. Very soulful reminded me a little of Hozier. There are some low notes in there that I felt like may have been a little forced. I dunno. Ticking Clock going on. I'd like to hear you mic'ed up to a good rig. Ticking Clock, I could imagine this becoming an eerie folksy classic with some thundering folk drums and viola.

Hey Jame, I really appreciate the comments and I'm glad you enjoy some of the Demo . It would be awesome to collaborate with you. I went for a choppy structure for this Demo, trying to acquire this feeling of climbing a slippery slope. Many of the songs have this swinging feeling. I haven't been recording much lately because I've been busy with other projects, but I'd love to collaborate.
