I have a number of MP3's of my band that we've recorded in our project studio available online at www.purevolume.com/fredsfear
They can be downloaded instead of streamed, as well.
My problem is, everything was recorded directly in to the aardvark q10, and as such they all have a distinctly not-analog sound (imagine that). I'm looking in to methods for warming up my recordings and giving them a bit more of a warmer/creamier analog sound, and first few things that come to mind is a tube pre-amp and a compressor. I'm wondering if I'm on the right track, and if anyone has any suggestions on the mixes in general, or any advice I might find helpful. Thanka thanka.

I liked that ironic tone and the general feel of the lyrics. There's a lot of buzz and crackle at the start of So Long, but I wouldn't be surpised if you told me that's deliberate. Have you listened to these tracks on a system with full bass extension? I have a feeling the bass is out of control, but without a true full range system you won't hear it (indeed, I can't on mine, but I think I recognise the symptoms). If you haven't, I think it would be worth doing.
(On the other hand I did see some of the original punk bands first time round. You had to be there to appreciate how truly dreadful most of them were.)
