Kevin Walsh Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I've listened to many wonderful synth-based songs, everything from ambience to trance to dance and I've always wanted to try my hand at it. So I started this song. It ended up as, well, something else, I'm not sure what. Whatever it is, I'd love to hear your critiques on the song in all it's aspects. Thank you in advance! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Screed Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 really like the drums, and the bass at the beginning to me, this really kicks *****. really really kicks ***** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark skinner Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Extremely good job on the vocals and main break. I think one thing it ended up as is being somewhat "punk" even with the synth. I'd like to hear it with horns .. I'm not sure the short lead section at 2:36 was inline with the feel of the rest of the song up to that point. ?? Fantastic job exploring .. mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhonoBrainer Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I like it, like a darker Beach Boys? You could hang a lot on this but as is it has a driving psychedelic vibe that you can't tell if it's angsty or not. Pretty special territory. Kudos on the vocals and bgv's, nailed it. nice vocal delays . . . great mix as well! cheers, -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Whatever you intended you ended with something quite acceptable Kevin, the whole piece worked for me and the mix worked well here on my Events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSband Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Very cool man. It's very different sounding from you usual stuff, in a good way. Really creative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeringAmps Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I'm not good with "genres" so I'll not try to put a finger on it.
