Hi all

Please go to
[url="http://orangeunsignedact.co.uk/acts/raised-by-wolves"]http://orangeunsignedact.co.uk/acts/raised-by-wolves[/url]
and check out the tracks. While you're there, please vote for us! Please then come back here and give your opinions, observations, suggestions, etc. Be as candid and honest as you like, even if it's to say: "my 3 year old plays better bass". I can take it, I'm a grown up: 5 years old :)

Drums done with Hydrogen, all instruments and vocals going straight into a Boss DR-1600 digital multi-track recorder and mixed/mastered on same.

Cheers,
Frank

It's not really my type of music, but I can imagine people will like it. The basslines are also pretty cool, not just hammering root notes.

Stupid question: How do I vote?

Even stupider question: Is that one of those cool model lightsabres you have in your display picture? (You know, the full sized ones that even light up and make noises)

I think it records each visit from a unique IP address as a vote of sorts. Or something. A comment or two certainly couldn't hurt, unless they were hurtful, of course!

About £75 delivered, if I remember correctly. Worth every penny.

Not that I'm a geek, you understand.

Sinking it back a bit into the mix might bring everything else up a little...[/quote]

Interesting. What did you listen to it on? I'm guessing PC speakers and it was actually mostly mixed with PC speakers and it sounded OK. It was a 5.1 surround system and admittedly had a woofer. Will take another listen.

This is good feedback, keep it coming!

Have you got a drummer? because he isn't credited in your bio.


I quite like it (not what I would usually listen to)

Is your singer American?

Nope; our guitarist programmed the drums with Hydrogen. We're currently in the market for one but we're in no great rush and have already done a gig with drums on a backing track.
