Clint Swank Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) First thing I've recorded since Sonar died (and I almost did). Turns out THIS is the remix. Soundcloud is weird sometimes. Edited April 8, 2022 by Clint Swank 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Shapiro Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Sounds great, very funky groove. I like the subtle organ part. Can I ask what you used for the organ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint Swank Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 There are actually three instruments : Native Instruments organ and clavinet and IK hammond bx3. The bX three is the most prominent, NI organ is an octave lower, and the clavinet is a sneaky way of giving the organs a little more bite. Thanks for listening and the compliments.

PhonoBrainer Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 I like it, it's got stank and swagger! Kudos on the songwriting chops. The mix has a lot of thoughtful panning, very cool. Lead guitar part in the middle has a killer tone! The mix has some pretty high-eq bias, lots of sparkle and sizzle up there on vocals and hi-hats, which is nice and clean, but it might do with a little more high eq rolloff on those, just a hair ought to tame the occasional spitiness up top. Wouldn't want to take the upper clarity away. loved this one, thanks for the share! cheers, -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wookiee Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Basically it sound OK but as Tom notes it has very little bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clint Swank Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 IK Hammond Bx 3, Native instruments organ(same part,an octave lower) and NI clavinet, adds a little edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clint Swank Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 It's said that "A work is never finished but abandoned." Nevertheless, I'm gonna go back and tamp down those highs a little, keeping in mind these 74 year old ears and their lust for treble. I'll post the results here. Thanks for the advice and the compliments, folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bajan Blue Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Cool track, really enjoyed the listen - i went straight for the remix, which i thought sounded fine Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Screed Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I love it! Funky is always good. If you are asking for crtis, it sounds like you are holding back a bit on the vocals, like you are afraid someone will hear you, but that is just me, I just finished listening to some punk rock. Write some more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint Swank Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 Yeah, well, I'm 74, and I haven't been singing for a while. Vocal is first take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
