News of a tragedy in classical music ...
PhonoBrainer replied to SteveStrummerUK's topic in The Coffee House
She probably left to team up with the Avengers. -
What's your temperature and humidity? Hopefully survivable!

Real horns, backed by guitar? Great parts. I want my 90's back. cool tune dude. cheers, -Tom
-
Wow. The vocal delivery was so authentic and emotional, without being sappy. The video supported everything. And the string parts were really strong. Nice job! -Tom
-
The lead is sweet. I appreciated the timing of everything, it's pretty tight. Whatever that lead guitar processing chain is, it's a keeper. cheers, -Tom

Lyrics sure work and it's a catchy song. I'd vote for less reverb on the snare, and a little louder kick/snare. Your hi hat seems about right. And other than the intro, for your panned acoustic arpeggios, they could come down just a bit in volume. Have fun with it, it's a nice one. cheers, -Tom

Your link gives us "no such song, sorry" so it's Canadian at least.

Is this a different singer, or are you adjusting your delivery? Anyway, nice song with a nice melody hook. The harmonica is a nice touch. I listened on headphones, and maybe found the upper mids on the vocal and the harmonica poking through just a bit sharply in the mix. It's a good mix in the main. My headphones were at a healthy volume, as it happens. What do you get when you listen to it with loudish headphones, do you notice any stridency? Just a thought, might be my hearing and my head. good tune, feels like this would go over well at some outdoor festival where they are all sitting on blankets and in lawn chairs on a sunny hillside. Nice and mellow. Can't escape a Bob Dylan reference here, but at least I saved it for the last paragraph. cheers, -Tom

Super nice on the volume swells. You have excellent feel of when to play, and when not to. Cool beans! cheers, -Tom

Those two should meet. They have so much pretending in common.

Something to ponder while you aren't making music

ProjectSAM Swing! and Symphobia Series 50% Off at NI
PhonoBrainer replied to Reid Rosefelt's topic in Deals
Thanks for that, Grem. Forzo sounds big and cinematic, sounds great but I have Cinebrass already and I'm shooting for tight jazz funk. Obliged nonetheless. -
Suddenly I could go for a Pepsi.

How much without the surveillance device?

100% full speed ahead on this. The kick drum has a pattern that does not quite fit the groove. The groove is exemplified by congas, hi hats, and bass - make the kick sit with those and you are golden in the groove department. Vocals are processed nicely, and a good performance to boot. Your mud factor I think is in the kick drum. Even when the "breakdown" happens towards the end, if you drop the kick out, does it help your mix clarity? I will keep my slightly less furry ears out for the remix cheers, -Tom

I just hope I can use my new personal voucher with my new Activity Acorns. (It's not a negative complaint if it hasn't happened yet)
-
I like the fun behind this effort. Didn't think I would hear this today! Got any more - how about a breakdown on H.R. Puffinstuff? cheers, -Tom
-
Second mix, much better! Is your drum kit a loop? Can you give the whole kit less reverb? the drummer is buried towards the back of the parking garage, but everyone else is up front, drier. Do you also have any reverb on the bass guitar/synth? that might be something to cut as well - those two steps might clarify the nether regions a bit further. I like the Kakku Style! Looks good capitalized. cheers, -Tom

"Destination Unknown" (Rock) - Mix #2 Finally Up!
PhonoBrainer replied to Bob Oister's topic in Songs
Fun! But, the beater on the kick, the upper eq range of the kick, it really pops out all throughout the song, and for me it's masking some of the other really cool elements in the mix. All ears are different, though, and the world needs kick drum. That aside, what a fantastic rocker's stew with a really great guitar lead tone, and those chugging rhythm guitar parts are cool too. Vocal performance is I think your best yet. cheers, -Tom
