James Cartwright Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Hi guys, We're in lockdown here in NZ, so I've spent some time in the studio, the mix could definitely be better, but I can't listen to it again Hope you enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeringAmps Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) Not a "crit", but I kept waiting for the "hammer to fall" ala Deep Purple or King Crimson et al. Huge sound stage, no doubt about that! I'm not good with "genres", but this is "ambient"? A bit long for my tastes, but I get it. I'm gonna give you a "well done"! ? tom oh, forgot to mention welcome to the songs forum...

PhonoBrainer Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I like it very much, it's a listening adventure. In the beginning I kind of wanted the lead guitar noodling to either come up in volume, (it's often quieter than the hi hat), or prolly just a hair less reverb whist keeping it atmospheric. Somehow! I'm guessing, live drummer? Pretty impressive however it's played or programmed. I think the entire thing has a massive sense of vision. Mix-wisem I'd vote for a little more "air" up top, it's a bit focused on midrange, which is understandable given the instrumentation, but any kind of eq that cak do one of those 20khz air boosts or upper eq lift shelf might help it breathe a bit more. To be fair, I listened on headphones, decent phones, but that might be the "air" I'm missing. I dunno. Great track, great adventure. cheers, -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Cartwright Posted April 18, 2020 Author Share Posted April 18, 2020 Thanks Toms, I'll have a go at incorporating the suggestions. The genre would be post rock mostly I guess, like Mono, Explosions in the Sky, This Will Destroy You The drums are SD3 played via my TD-20 Thanks for the listens and the thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
