Easy Come Easy Go

[Douglas Kirby]

Hi Everybody,

This is a brand new song I just recorded and mixed - on this one the rhythm guitar is my Strat using Amplitude and the lead work is a Gibson SG using TH-U. As always, any comments and critiques are welcome, and thanks for listening.

Here it is:

Hi Douglas - Guitars sound very good - like the vocals on the chorus - just had a little trouble hearing them clearly, particularly (mainly)  first verse

apart from that, like this

I agree with your crits Nigel - I just made some adjustments to the mix - I also removed the auto-wah on the lead parts - I think it was a bit harsh.

Thanks for your ears.

Missed the first mix, (not a big wah fan so maybe its a good thing) this one sounds good!

Thanks for listening Tom.  So I assume you weren't a big fan of George Harrison's song "Wah Wah"?

Hey so if you want to make this song more "sell-able"...it's a pretty decent song...

1) shorten the intro

2) Try singing the vocal more effected, with more of a character.  Get a little wacky (never hurts to try something crazy).

Great recording and geetars.  Sounds good.

Nice one Doug.  I don't know, seems like I've heard this before or maybe parts of it? Anyway, very professional sound as always, the performance and production.
