    Science Rock

    Late as usual... "Primus influence" isn't a combination of words I've come across often, if at all, but it seems 100% accurate in this case - that was a really cool piece. Off kilter and solid at the same time, and really nice open mix.
  2. Ditto, this is quite an endeavor, Colin. I know it's not 100% yet, but really useful.
  3. Mellow and atmospheric, and then BAM! - funkified it is. Good stuff, very enjoyable. Nice to hear clav out front like that. Also loved the fretless bass lines in the second half and then those horn hits on top. Groovy...

    THROWN AWAY

    Like others I am definitely getting that Paul Simon vibe - I think it's that naturally "airiness" you have in your voice (love it) and your cadence. Overall mix sounds good too, matches up well. FWIW, I think it's certainly worth redoing to get the drums/percussion better in sync.
  5. Yeah, that blues song made me smile. 😊 Lyrics were great, and the arrangement and mix were very complimentary. It reminded me a bit of something that Daryl would do (that is a compliment).

    Mondo Lynn

    Sounded great here! A really nice, detailed, yet wide open mix.
  7. Wow... that is some good stuff. I think it's safe to say that you're playing your @$$ off on this one. 😉 And yeah, those tones are really nice. PS... loved the wacky stuff at the end.
  8. I really enjoyed that... aside from a great combination of piano VSTs that sound perfect together, IMO it was your "touch" that really brought the piece to life. And as someone with a college sophemore I can identify!
  9. I've never actually had to do that before, but FWIW I sorta agree that 2/4 is probably what I'd want as well. If I delete the first bar I would expect it's time signature to be deleted as well, though bar 1 may be a special case as you said since there's nothing preceding it. Pre-roll?
  10. Wow - Jesse, doing straight-ahead rock? Who woulda thunk it! Nice job with this one, it feels very... "honest".
  11. Mix sounds good here, very clear, even with the layers of instrumentation. Really loved the vocal harmonies.... There's a sense of humor in the song that reminds just a bit of They Might Be Giants.
  12. Nicely done, Bjorn. Great tribute. My daughter is in her sophemore year of art school in Hartford, CT, so I can certainly appreciate Aunt Betty's talent!
  13. Yeah... loved it! You really did straddle the line between duplication and tribute quite nicely. And ironically, I was reading the lines above while listening to "ten years have got behind you"... 😉
  14. Nice one, Lynn... Loved the lyrics on this one, good stuff. And I agree with Tom - that guitar solo needs to come up a notch so that it's more front & center. About the only nit I'd have is that the drums seem a bit "static".
  15. A little late for a Halloween listen, but no matter... 😊 Yeah, it's what I would expect - ya just never disappoint. I liked that multi-track scream before the breakdown section. And the outro - that's some nasty stuff.

    Light Up the Dark

    Not a huge country fan, but that was really well done, songwriting to mix. And your voice just suits it perfectly... nice falsetto too.
  17. Very nice, Tim. It's a nicely complete piece. You certainly have a lot of orchestration happening... sounds like it took some time to arrange!
  18. Hey, it's a good question. Time to lawyer up.
  19. Oh yeah, nice early Genesis vibe all over this one. 😊 Just an enjoyable listen from start to finish. Lots of nice melodies throughout linked together into a complete piece. Edit: fake ending! 😁
  20. Being a big dog fan, well, how could I not like this? 👍😊 Sounds great, John. Loved the vocal harmonies - big yet distinct. Everything just sounds really good. Question... Are Troop and Cammo asking for royalties yet? 😉
  21. Not really my genre either, but I kinda liked it - the title is fairly on point. 😊
  22. Good point... Linear Phase plugins in particular are known to introduce significant latency.
  23. Only one tune I started early in the year and still haven't finished... Sometime soon, maybe. Thanks for asking.
  24. Aside from the mix and your choice of instrumentation, which as always are spot-on, the song simply left me with a big smile. 👍😊
