Here to report on my progress with home recording. Things have improved slightly. Please find the attached file below. It is a song intro. I have completely written the song, but need to finish recording. The drum parts are what I have been working on, they are not finished yet. Please tell me what you think of the mix. If anyone wants the stems to give a try mixing it yourself and seeing if you can clean it up a bit, please feel free to ask. I would love to see what a better engineer could do with it.
Also, I was wondering why it only seems to sound good on my PC speakers and monitors, but sounds really bad on my cell phone. I would describe it as shrill, harsh, fizzy, low-quality, etc. coming through my phone speakers. Granted, my phone is a cheap dollar store smart phone which I'm temporarily using, but other songs from other artists sound good on it, so it strange why mine doesn't. Please help me here, does that have to do with mastering? Mixing? I have no clue.
