Keith Wilby

I wrote some lyrics and added vocals. Perhaps someone clever could put the two together? https://www.bandlab.com/post/65048b73-7fd7-ed11-9f73-6045bd31b578

You can fork me anytime ?

Really can't fault this, I'm rather envious. I didn't hear any issue with the vocal. Beautiful voice. Very well done to all involved.

Early days with this one folks, comments welcomed. Thanks. https://www.bandlab.com/post/3f852afe-e6d6-ed11-9f73-6045bd31b578

Leremwald - great guitars and vocals and a good mix. The only thing I didn't like was the drums, they're way too busy for me.

I'm listening to Overture now. You clearly know your way around an orchestra. Bravo! ?

I think that that is no bad thing; I've done it myself once or twice and if you can get it to work then I think it works well. It's a bit like in a drama, where someone is being threatening or sinister, to have them eat a sandwich at the same time, a bit like putting the ordinary with the absurd. Well I know what I mean anyway ? Here's one I did earlier (I know it's considered bad form to post a link to another song but this is purely to illustrate the point): https://www.bandlab.com/post/dbf9a90e3b3ee81180c300155d65202b_4894bae075f447dfbd9119b410257cc5

Thanks @FreeEarCandy That's about as good as it gets as far as me and lead guitar are concerned. I have a lot to learn about technique so I'm just winging it for now ?

You have such a great voice RexRed, and those harmonies are superb. Suited perfectly to this kind of song ?

This paints a picture in my mind that I couldn't begin to describe. Can't really add anything over and above what the other guys have said. Keep up the good work. And your chin.

Vocals fixed, lead guitar panned so as to not interfere with the vocal quite so much, plus other minor tweaks. Comments invited; I hope I've caught everything but you never know ? https://www.bandlab.com/post/b73197f4-18ce-ed11-a8de-000d3a949241

Thanks for those constructive comments @FreeEarCandy, I do struggle to get a decent guitar sound with the relatively meagre assets at my disposal, but I do agree that there's room for improvement now that you come to mention it. I'll see what I can do ?

That's a good thought, thanks Mark ?

A good original song and sound and IMO. Well done.

Really? I thought some of the higher vocal notes were a bit strained ? Thanks for listening though ?

I've issued two more songs that you good people helped me with as a "single" on your favourite streaming service and also on Bandlab here: https://www.bandlab.com/wilbyforce/albums/1f32e096-0ac7-ed11-a8e0-00224844f6cb

That's praise indeed, many thanks @Lynn Wilson

I was nit-picking really, it sounds great. I find Melodyne great for sibilance correction.

I agree but it's nice to have a little reassurance. I'm at the "can't see the wood for the trees" stage with this one.

Hi all, here's my first stab at this song. Comments invited as always, particularly since there's no chorus or middle 8. https://www.bandlab.com/post/d5db4876-04c7-ed11-a8e0-000d3a3f8f45

Very nice job. The only *very* minor thing I'd suggest over and above the other comments is that, in the BVs, either synchronise the sibilance sounds ("t" sounds in this instance), or only have them sound on the lead vocal.

Many thank for the feedback DA, I'll take another listen ?

Cool. The Dorset Tourist Board thanks you ?

Hi Jeff, for me it doesn't go anywhere. Perhaps consider introducing some of the instruments as the song progresses, and/or have a middle 8? Just my 2p worth.

Fantastic guitar playing ?
