Bass seems weak (not enough low end energy). Other than that great party song.

[Lynn Wilson]

This is a very well performed, retro hard rock song in the AC/DC or Kiss style.  Just like those bands, the lyrics are hard to make out, but the energy and spirit is there.  I agree with Ed, that it could use a little more bottom end and drum energy to round it out.  Otherwise, this sounds good overall, and should gain some fans for you!

[Dirty Living]

Thanks for the feedback and kind words! I think I need a better pair of studio monitors haha

[Dirty Living]

Bapu and Lynn - if you have a chance, here's another one - appreciate your time and feedback!

 

[Bapu]

That is how the other song should be mixed.

[Wookiee]

Only listened to the first, classic Rock song but as so often the bass player did not show up at the studios for the recording session.

[Dirty Living]

@Wookiee Well, he kinda did haha, I played/recorded all the instruments and vocals (except the drums) - but I totally admit I am a guitar player who plays bass.

Definitely shades of AC/DC and I have always liked their stuff.  They were a great hard rocking band and they knew that is what they were -- no false pretenses given off by them.  I agree with the comments above about the first song.  However, given that little tweak, you have posted a couple of well performed and cool hard rockers.

Well done!!

Thanks brother! \m/

I really like the track - definitely shades of AC/DC as other have said, but that's a REALLY good thing for me - 100% top down driving music

Cool

Thanks a lot! Really appreciate it! \m/

Love the big AC/DC vibe! But good lord just listening to that excellent vocal makes MY throat hurt! You must have some incredible pipes to maintain that! Well done!

More bass, yes please!

 

cheers,

Enjoyed this one.  I'm on another listen.  I agree with what has already been said about the low end.  I actually wouldn't mind mixing this for my own enjoyment if you wouldn't mind sharing the tracks.  

Good work.

Well . . . it's billed as "rock song", and it certainly is that . . . took me back in time, when we used to crank the stereo on the weekend . . . however, tonight I had to dive for the volume fader (don't you have neighbours too ?) . . . you do realize it contravenes the internet loudness bylaws of 2021 don't you ? . . . well --> guess it's my own fault for clicking on that "rock song" button.  Liked this, got my heart pumping.

Haha thank you, you do get used to it somehow, I think brian johnson gargles glass and drinks gasoline haha, maybe I'll try that!

[CSW]

Nice pocket that the guitar/bass and kick are sitting in.

What guitar setup are you using? Sounds like a Marshall ....very good!
