Just listened to "Broken" myself, dodo. Great job...I really liked that one.

Stu: Hey, glad you liked the clips. Thanks man. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

metaltim,
Listened to the newest 'away', and again, I love that haunting guitar...there's something almost medieval about that section. The vocals are much clearer now. I might only suggest that they may be a bit wetter for this particular production, as long as they don't lose their presence. But,it's sounding very good overall to me. Once again, that guitar line is with me for a while... thanks, Roy

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">wow it's cool to know i can write a riff that sticks in someone's head.. that is the key to success right??

i'd agree it's one of those you hear, and then hum throughout the day.
medieval: what a word [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] i would describe as a 'depressingly happy' riff.

the best thing, thats the first thing I played once i got the rhythm/drums recorded, its just what came out, and i went with it, not knowing where I'd end up.
that's the kinda stuff that keeps all of us coming back for more, and more.. forever


i agree with the vox, I'm still not totally happy with em. there's a happy medium somewhere, just haven't found it. i think i'll just add some D-verb this time, I don't know if I could sing it again quite as well as I did in those takes!

kind words
Tim

Well, I'll toss one out and see what you all think...

ftp://basstardz.dhs.org/Upload/strive.mp3

daBasstard, I hope you don't mind - if it's a problem, I'll remove it. [img]images/icons/blush.gif[/img] It's just for a day or three - my server's screwing up - they're changing a bunch of crud over.

Anyway, the song is called "Strive". The band is called "Divide The Day" (formerly "Ripshaw"). They're unsigned (well, they're signed to me for a development / production deal), but pretty popular around here. They did a couple of LA area Warped Tour dates last year, so some of you may have heard of them.

Anyway, I just thought I'd share a bit of one of the things I've been working on lately. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Phil, check your link. I just tried to d/l and no go. [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
 

Sorry - try this. Go to:

ftp://basstardz.dhs.org/Upload/

then in the open folder, right click on "Strive.mp3" and select "copy to folder". Select the folder you want on your computer and hit "okay". Once it's there you should be able to open it with your player of choice.

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
 

Phil, Very solid mix. I like the ear candy! (like at 1:48 where the vox fades in from the left). Nice attention to detail. Vocals sound great. I like the sound of the snare but it seems distant, not burried, just a little far away (phase?). That is all. Cool.

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
 

Hmmm... maybe I should bring it up a bit. It's bone dry - no verb at all, and I don't think it's phase - there's only one mic on the snare (side of shell).

Thanks for listening and thanks for the comments!

Phil, I was listening with headphones.....FYI
