Wookiee

Why the need to "Master" I really hate how that term is used out of the context and why music had to be "Mastered" for Vinyl. If I was going to add anything I would add a hint of that pulsing Bass Arp from the original score. This is beautiful in in its rawness @mark skinner

You got your funk on with this one @batsbrew, nothing quit like a squelchy gritty funk bass to start a groove going now. Nice Rob up to your normal standard I would say

I am with Bjorn the vocals need a little riding to sit better with the rest of the mix, but this is well crafted and well captured. Thanks for sharing. As to being tortured for being different, no doubt, this world never learns from the past it repeats the same mistake from generation to generation unfortunately.

Listening to the opening bars the drums seem a little awash in reverb, which as the song progresses shows it self in the toms booming/hanging a little, perhaps that was your intent. Overall the drums do end up sounding in a different space to my furry ears, which is shame as it is quite a well craft song with some nice licks on the guitar, nice touch with the B3.

Definitely in the face mix, I do wonder if the Hats and bass are a little to upfront/prominent Douglas. From your other responses you might do a remix I will keep the furry lugs on the look for it.

Listened to the first one, Raptor, should think it would work well in a club environment.

You have obviously worked hard on the composition and capture, it does unfortunately suffer from Mechanical Auto Mastering that such tools as LANDR impart to mixes. Much better to learn how to finalise a tune yourself. No amount of mastering will correct a mix. Start with as near perfect mix as you can get with the tonal balance you want. Theses Mastering Tools like LANDR apply what they believe the tonal balance, i.e. EQ should be before applying limiting. Their Tonal balance is what all other songs sound like and if you want to stand out from the crowd you do not want to sound like everyone else do you? I would suggest you go get your self SPAN from Voxegon which is free that will give you and idea of tonal balance and the Youlean Loudness tool, which is also free. Both, which are just indicative tools, will help you get good tonal balance and level without resulting to computer algorithms to get what someone else thinks your music should sound like.

Interesting stuff Tim, this is of course just my personal furry thought (JMPFT) I do wonder if an electronic drum sound would not have worked better. Other than that it worked mix wise well here.

You are not alone I have had it with Bandlab, thanks for giving your PC the reboot and taking the time to listen and comment. @Makke You are most kind sir, thank you.

Well that is good to know. ?

Pleasant easy on the furry ears tune, sounds nicely captured, mix woks well here, vocal may be just a tad to forward for some but your tune your mix.

Nice easy furry paws tapping tune @Makke I enjoyed.

Ah! OK thanks for identifying him to me, you do have to understand David that we Wookiee have a problem, you humans all look the same to us Wookiee. ?

Probably because they recreations of 80's synths Thanks Douglas I do appreciate you taking the time to have a listen and comment.

All the professionals take one look at me and they all agreed I am beyond help. Thanks for your ears and kind words.

Rupert Neve, thank you Sir, thank you so much RIP ?

I will not ask, thank you Nigel you are most kind it was just a bit of silly fun.

@David Sprouse As a furry alien from a galaxy far far far away I do not recognise the chap but I suspect he is from Hidden's comment he is some kind of medical peep famous for halogenic drugs?? Thanks for the listen and err picture ?

Nothing quite like a squelchy, funky, real bass to get the groove going, follow that up with FZ guitar chords, sweet sounding brass, all beautifully recorded and presented. Nice one @Hidden Symmetry. I think you could be right in thinking I liked it, sweet giving it the of approval. Oh the drummer did a job good of getting his groove on too.

Obliviously ? Thanks for the ears and your kind words. They really are worth checking out DCO 106 (Juno 6) $25 currently CA2600 (ARP 2600) $25 currently Polymode (PolyMoog) $29 currently Surrealistic MG-1 Plus (Originally made by Moog for Realistic Electronic stores) FREE yes I said Free Or you could by the Cherry Audio Synth Stack $129 includes the DCO 106 and CA 2600, Surrealistic MG-1 Plus and Voltage Modular Core if you want to go down that rabbit hole. I should also mention the others Synths I suppose Arturia Vocoder currently 99.00 Euros (199 Euros full price) Softube Heartbeat $139

Nice song, well presented mix worked well here on my event 20/20's

Twitter and Bisted ? Has all the hallmarks of Staypress, The Bassman and Mesh. Good to hear she is still current too. ?

For a change listing on the Event 20/20's as the rest of the studio has not been turned on today. Sounds up to your normal quality and standard Nigel, nice mix, good voice definition/separation I should say also enjoyed the tune.

Sounded OK for a first attempt here, takes time and the only way to learn is to keep em coming, thanks for sharing.

Very nice taking CbB back to its Twelve tone, Tone Poem roots, I like.
