hahaha i love this man!!! there's some crazy static goin on you should figure out, unless its intentional? in which case its too loud.... i think the kick and low end could be pumped a bit, for this kind of music.

the vocals could be more in your face aswell

otherwise, i love ur style man.
 
Thank you! Yeah, the static is sort of intentional. I mean it didn't come out the exact way I expected it to, but you know. Yeah, I'll have to boost the low end. As far as the vocals, I'm still trying to record them in a way that I sound more angry, and bassy, if you know what I mean. I appreciate the input, thanks!
 
Thanks for replying to both of my threads. I've checked your music out before from another thread you've posted. I can't really say I have anything to critique about it. The mix is clean, and you've achieved the sound that I think you were going for, in my opinion. Pretty good.
 
A little more vocals would be my preference. Pretty good overall peformance and mix. Double vocals?

I'm not sure I understand what you are saying. Do you mean bring my vocal levels up more? And if you're asking if I doubled my vocals the answer would be no. But if you're suggesting that I should do it, how would it help?(Just curious, I think that might unintentionally come across as a bit rude).

Yeah, I've noticed that. I'm not sure how to remove it.
 
There is a weird noise that was introduced from the download as well at the start of my MP3 post. I just noticed the compression that I assume the upload to the site created as well. Sucks that is a variable.
 
No, not the crackly noise. I'm not sure how to describe it really.(Sorry if this is confusing) What exactly did you do to it?
 
I added another kick and snare to the intro. You listened to it?
 
Yeah, I did. I noticed a slight difference, but I couldn't tell what it was. I'm also using my crappy laptop speakers at the moment, though.
 
Yeah, I'll have to check it out again when I get back from school.
 
Is there any feedback, or tips you could give me on my mix though? I'm still trying to learn.
 
I would hope my spending an hour adding drum tracks to your song would be considered feedback. Listening and comparing your work to what you hear in your head is what will get you happy with your stuff man. Any others opinions is just that. Other peoples opinions man.......

Geeze, I didn't know you did all that. I appreciate it a lot. Is there anyway you could e-mail it to me, so your efforts are not in vain? :D

Also, that is one of the greatest pieces of advice anyone's ever given me. I mean I am pretty happy with it. I was just hoping someone would point out any "amateurish" mistakes I may have made. Or just anything I may have over looked.

Thanks a lot, man!
 
Yeah man, I'll send the whole drum track to ya. Send me the wav file when you get a chance. I'll PM my email.
