:D :p :D :p No, this is not a suicide announcement...Sorry to disappoint some of you. :)

Finished this yesterday but re-did the drums today. I'm wondering if the drums are too thin. I know I eq'd them a little differently, trying to not make them so fat for this song. Any advice is appreciated as always....thanx, dudes and dudettes. :D :cool: :)

The player can sometimes go nuts. Make sure it says BETTER WORLD
 
Whoah, I just posted 2 minutes ago...It went from 1 view to 64 views. The CIA is on to me, I know it. :eek:
 
Starts out with a cool bassline man...drums seem fine to me..and I love the squeal on that guitar. The first vocals are kind of hard to hear...quiet. Actually, all teh vocals are a bit quiet. When you hit the chorus, I can understand them, but they are still a bit buried.

The music sounds great how you have it mixed, so in my opinion, get the vocals to sit in that mix, and it's great. Right now, they seem too quiet, for me. Love the progression, as it's another very hooky song.

Nice one man...

Coo, thanx Dog...Wow, I lose perspective pretty easily...I thought the vocals might actually be too loud. I'll get them up, there's alot of room.
 
Just a quick listen -

I agree with Dogman, vox is a bit low.

I think the guitars are a bit thin and harsh (just a bit). Bass needs some more oomph.

Drums sound fantastic though! :D
 
Rami,
I love the bass intro - almost Dick Dale guitar style.
The song is REALLY good.
The Drum EQ is spot on for my ears.
The only neg I can think of is that the very 1st guitar phrase - (those 1st 1/2 doz notes) - doesn't quite match the rest of the song.
You amaze with - prolific & superb quality to boot.
The chorus & refrain are real sing alongs too.
Excellent work.
 
Thanx NL....You guys are probably right about the vocals and everything else. I'm going to get something to eat. It will probably do me some good to get away from the tune for a while. I'll come back ad re-mix it. Thanx alot.

They are VERY minor nitpicks - it really sounds great as is. :D
 
Damn Rami, another stellar production. I agree with the others that the vocals could come up, but thats the only problem I can hear. As usual, the drums are played and mixed perfectly. Awesome guitar tones too. Since i've been here, I've always thought of you as primarily a drummer, but it's obvious that you can hold your own very well on any instrument. And again, I have to say how jealous I am of your song writing ability. Your songs seem very natural and not forced at all. Great riffs, harmonies, etc. Another fantastic job! :)
 
NL5....Thanx man...The little nits are what make the difference between pretty good and very good, so I really appreciate your opinion. I'm re-mixing as I type. Thanx dude.

Greg....That really means alot to me. Thanx alot. I'm bringing the vocals up right now. Thanx again.
 
As always....excellent musicianship, great production, vox just need a bit of boost...or it could be just me and 20 years of blowin' my ear-drums out with a marshall.....great stuff!!!

That's because he has the Rami School of Voxology or whatever myhat said.....just kidding :D :D
 
I just re-uploaded it. I think the vocals are more prominent now. I hope it sounds better, I made a few other tweaks too.

The chorus is easier to hear, but the vox at the start are still a bit quiet, to me. I had to try and listen carefully to make the individual words out. Chorus, no problem, but the verse, is still a bit quiet.

Other than that small nit, the music is fantastic. Again, you nailed a killer bass tone, and I love the drums. Guitar sounds really fit this tune. My only nit would be the quiet main vocal.... :o

Thanx Dog...Fuck, I can't turn up the verses any more, in my opinion. If you can't make out the lyrics, 'm not sure that's a volume thing. Maybe they're too wet or lack clarity. I'll have to check it out with fresh ears again tomorrow. Thanx again.
 
Now that's the stuff!!! :D

Love it. Vox is clear and present here.

Nice job!
