That was realy realy good :D Worth keeping an eye on you I think. Very well written. Catchy stuff. Just dont go too heavy though. I can hear it coming out but it will be better if you hold that back. Gives it more tension.

cool :)

Thanks guys, Glad your enjoying it. If you have any tips on the mix I can pass them onto Chris (Guitarist/Vocals) as he did the mixing on the track. We have some more stuff in the mix which should be around soon and I will be sure to post it up soon.

These ones are even more rough in terms of recording, will be nice once we can record them in a proper studio.

Cool!! Really enjoyed that. I think you could improve the mix by having the main vocal more up front. I can't quite put a finger on what it is. It sounds loud enough as it is but is still somehow lost in the mix, thin sounding, needs more body. Maybe if you keep it drier it'll have more definition and come more to the fore in the mix without being overpowering..? I'm not a engineer though so I could be talking rubbish.

For a home demo though it sounds pretty good. The instrumentation seems pretty well mixed to me.

It's not a good mix, but I love it! Nice arrangement, and the singer is quality, I love his voice and phrasing, really emotive and personal, some of his vocal gives me shivers.

Work on the mixes and this could really be something special.

Agree totally - love the song/vibe/voice - definitely my bag in terms of melodic rock/pop - do you guys like Jason Faulkner by any chance? If you've not checked him out he's a master musician/songwriter - my one major dislike here is the guitar sound, it's just too 'hot' - I can hear the kind of vintage rock sound you were aiming for but it's just a little harsh... get someone else to mix it is my advice - it's always good to have an objective pair of ears working on something you are probably a little too close to be objective about - I know that has helped bring out the best in stuff I've recorded but the had mixed by someone else.

Aside from that this is a killer track and you have great collective empathy - keep it up and keep writing stuff like this... it's very good.

Hope that's all cool

Mike

PS just in case you haven't checked this guy out:

Just followed Siddxs' link here from another thread....I am guilty as charged,I hardly ever come to this part of the forum(I don't laugh at beginers either though .....a reference to the thread I was reading NOT you guys!!!)...I LOVED this yes the mix is a little hard to get through but wow what a great song and +1 for the fabulous singing.
Good luck guys. :i-m_so_happy:
