CP/ Ben,
Great job, in my opinion. Good song! Maybe it's because it's more guitar driven than synth, I don't know, but this is my favorite thing I've heard you write so far. To me, it's obvious that your stuff is growing better and better. Keep going, keep creating... Thanks for letting us listen. [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

More interesting music, and all very different!

Captain Pants - I like "What This Did to Me." Nice groove, and those reversed parts are very slick. Nice job!

John Reis - Indeed, a nice break from listening to "conventional" musical forms, as Soundsurfr commented. Trippy stuff, but I liked it!

I just did another site update and posted an MP3 for a new song, "Perpetual Motion." The mix on this one isn't quite as polished yet as the others I've posted (haven't had enough time to live with it and go back for remixing yet), but the song is there.

Not sure how many more updates I'll have time to do before the CD is actually done (these projects always tend to get rather "intense" as you near the finish line), but it's been great fun sharing this stuff with everyone and checking out all the fine work you guys have been doing.

Hello all. I have a new song up on my mp3.com page if you would like to view it. I definately went back to my guitar roots for this song, as opposed to my stuff of late that is composed entirely on synths. Thanks for checking it out if you do..

The song is called "What this did to me"

Capitan - Good song. The use of guitars definitely adds to your sound.

I sense a little angst?

Nightshad Crisis....

There are the makings of a good track there, but you need to get more practice with recording on PT. I understand it's hard to get a good drum sound unless you've got good mikes and good mike pre's, so that may have to wait.

But here are some suggestions on a few other things I heard:

There is guitar amp noise evident just before the guitars kick in. Get into edit mode and chop it out!!! If you have the guitars on their own tracks, there's no reason why you should have to live with amp noise.

The lead vocal is difficult to hear in the verse, but not because it's not loud enough. It's because there's not enough high end EQ to let it cut through the mix. Also, it's awash in reverb, and the reverb sounds a little cheesy. Is it a Pro Tools plug-in? Or did you pull the reverb off a PA or amp?

Keep at it - the more you do this, the better your mixes will be.

if i had money i would buy nice preamps and mics, but im poor, but i think that equipment is only half the battle. thank you very much for the input. i am still learning protools. i am only 15 but have been trying hard to make good recordings and just get better overall with musical engineering. i think its maybe the second or third song i have seriously done with protools. the reverb is the d-verb plugin. ill try to mix it down and i will definitely cut the guitar out at the beginning. geez....for me its a million times easier recording slow music....why do the people i record always play fast music???? damn......evan

All right, I forked up the 4 bux a month to get 5Gb bandwidth a month, and 25 meg storage on my yahoo page...

I put up all the songs I could, feel free to d/l whatever you haven't heard yet...

My page
I have a little info about myself now too.

I figure I'll get into this a little more, like most of you here, and get my stuff out there for criticism (constructive that is)

I'll be putting up some pics of my stuff by the end of the night.

later
