Paul Bush 152 Posted June 12, 2020 Hello once again chaps, well I think I may be slowly getting the hang of this recording malarky , ``Circus ride´´ is my latest offering once again taking a hell a lot of your advice on board and checking out the `` creative sauce´´ web site that was also really helpful , cheers PB 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeeringAmps 886 Posted June 15, 2020 You've kind of fallen through the cracks here Paul. I think I'd build a little more in the pre-chorus. I hear an organ in there somewhere; I think I'd bring that up a bit. Overall, to me, its a good demo. Now lets build a little more energy throughout and hit that 3:16 mark running. t Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bajan Blue 532 Posted June 16, 2020 Hi Paul I think everything's there, but I do think pre chorus and chorus need to be a bit more dynamic. Otherwise, good job Nigel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emeraldsoul 1,202 Posted June 16, 2020 I really love the groove and the chord progression! Mix-wise, the bass is right up front . The drums are way back. So you might take the reverb distance down on the drums, and see how that sits better? Worth a shot. that's a cool production, nice job!!! -Tom 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Bush 152 Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) Thanks Tom ,Ive just bought a new pair of headphones Sehnheisser HD 280 pro for the mix down stage and they`ve helped me to get a better overall feel of the mixdown so after many hearings I i think i may have unmudlled it alhough there´s always room for improvement so its now time take on board tips and reflection ready for the next mixdown ..oh and I made a video aas well cheers PB Edited June 22, 2020 by Paul Bush Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lynn Wilson 494 Posted June 26, 2020 Great song that is aptly named! This is close to being a diy masterpiece and very entertaining. You've gotten good advice, but whether you do anything or not, this is a good song. I enjoyed it both times! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Bush 152 Posted June 27, 2020 Hi Lynn , yeah I`m definately doing a re-mix , there´s no high points in there I sort of overlooked that aspect of the song , its great to get a second + pairs of ears on my songs cheers pb 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
