reggae style party band

[ad0lescnts]

I just got done tracking this young party band and got it mastered by Dave COllins. I was wondering if anyone had any tips for next time.

All right Mon. (Hey, someone had to do it).

Great lyrics.

This is really good. Great voice. Could come up in the mix a bit.

Drums have that cohesive room sound. Real nice. Love that snare.

Guitars and bass sound great.

Horn patches sound cool. (They are patches right?)

Very nice. A+++

The kit sounds great!!!

Just a really fun track. I think the vocals are about right... maybe my monitors...

Who is this? I'd buy it. Kinda like early 311, or the Sublime (that doesn't bug me).

awesome thanks
You really think the vocals are too soft? I like them where they are but i'm gonna look into it more.

The horns are live, just they sucked and i had to copy and paste pretty much every note from good takes. (and autotune)

thanks for the comments,
T

Diggin that bonky snare. What a nice clear clank.

This reminds me a bit more of Sublime than reggae. Especially since the vocalist has a Brad Dolan feel and even sounds similar.

Like the upbeat guits, well recorded good sound. I like the production on this it sounds very well done. This recording sounds more polished to me than the avg board submission.


Horns again reminding me of Sublime.

I agree with the above,,,,,,,,love it. Great job
One thing Im hearing is a maybe a little too much compression on the vocal maybe that where someone mentioned (soft) but I definatley dig it.

Again Great job!!

Something in there reminds me more of Spin doctors...one of my favorite groups ever. It sounds really good here late at night. I like the vocal sound, it's hard for the vocal to be too compressed for commercial music, which is what I generally work with.
