Oh, MAN (anytime I start post with "Oh, MAN," brace yourself...) The song does, indeed, start out sounding like a happy song, but the recording quality is NOT "happy." Not even consistant. Bad to the point of major distraction- I was so distracted by the sound quality, I could not listen to the lyrics the first time I listened to the song, and I can't bring myself to suffer through the sound quality again. Bass is muddy, gets slightly better or worse several times with to no apparent purpose. Highs are strident and irritating. IMO, the instruments are way too mechanical and digitalized.

It sounds like it was recorded on a portable cassette deck, onto a tape that was worn out. Lo-fi has it's place, but "lo-fi" and "horrible" are not the same. Please, PLEASE, record it again. And know that my pointed criticism is always meant to be constructive.
 
steveb recorded Madonna and made a grand piano from scratch
 
mix is a bit distorted Merv...dunno if that was your intention but id bring the kick down and see what else, if anything, is causing it also the filtered automations need a bit more work...theyre prolly a bit long and should come in and out more

mad song though
 
haha i love you guys hehe

The distortion is intentional as am killing my wife on the song duh..............:mad::mad::mad:
 
ive seen him in paintings of mozart and his spit is used to lubricate oboes
 
A different sort of distortion would be nice, this does get sonically irritating. Perhaps a better mix of clean and distorted elements would help it be less hard on the ears. Guitar cab emulation programs typically do a great distortion, I'd definitely go that route.
 
NO FOOKIN DISTORTION AND IT SOUNDS WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY NICER x
 
I have nothing to add, but using distortion because you're killing your wife did make me laugh out loud...literally.
 
I enjoyed that, but it does worry me that most of your songs are pretty misogynistic. :)
 
Good god! How bad is Mervyn's rep? I just greened him and it had no effect whatsoever! :laughings:
 
mwahahahahahaha

some one doesnt like me but thanks for peeping dude or dudette
 
(YAWN) at Greg's and kcearl's banalities. I suppose it is enough that they entertain themselves...

Predictable as the sunrise. Mervyn, I support your song making, even if I don't quite "get" it, but those two are not worth my time, and they trash up the neighborhood. Sorry, but I won't be visiting this thread again.

Funny how you never post in the mp3 clinic unless it's in a troll's thread. Coincidence? I think not, troll.
