Jamesyoyo Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Here’s a track I did a few years back that I always liked, but hated my original mix. Some U2 nods here and there, as it is full of jangling guitars, weird allegorical lyrics and anthemic flourishes. Waiting For The End
SPAK Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 See what you mean ... great and as David says 'catchy'. I wouldn't know where to start, regarding the mix / so I won't ?
PhonoBrainer Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Inventive and cool in the lyrics department. Love that "U2" style guitar break, but your vocal compilations give it a full originality. Listening on headphones, I wanted a bit more width in the mix, especially in the first couple of minutes. Later on, the panning seems to fill out a bit wider. Perhaps that's my imagination? Just love the originality of this. Authentic songwriting methinks. cheers, -Tom
Douglas Kirby Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 I liked the lead vocal and bgvs - also the lead guitar sounds really cool. Good song - I enjoyed the listen. The mix doesn't sound all that bad to me.
Lynn Wilson Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 What a catchy and clever tune! Your vocals stand out in this, and they're almost always my favorite part of your songs. I would like to hear a bit more low end in this mix, but I can live with it as is. Besides U2, I hear a little REM, too. Can't wait to hear your next song!
Bob Oister Posted January 26, 2019 Posted January 26, 2019 Hey, James, Great to see you over here on the shiny, new Cakewalk forum!? You've got a killer good, punchy pop rocker with a really cool mid 80's retro vibe! I'm on my second listen. The writing, arrangement and performances are all top notch, I love the delay soaked guitar tones and cool solo, and your vocals and harmonies are absolute dynamite on this! The mix sounds clean and punchy with a cool, crisp 80's sound. Fantastic, as usual James, another kicker from Factory Yoyo! PS: The night the old forum froze, I logged in one last time at 11:19pm to try to thank you, James G, Daryl, Leadfoot and Bobby for the very kind shout outs and comments that you guys made earlier in the week, but LOL, I guess I was 19 minutes late and a dollar short,? because apparently it had already flipped to read-only at 11pm!? Anyway, sincere thanks again, and I'm looking forward to hearing more great new music from you here on the new place! Have a Rockin' Weekend, James! Bob
