Let's hear your latest stuff....right here

Kev...the piano reminds me a little of Joe Jackson (but he usually has his piano tuned...lol)....cool litle song...

You know, that was when me an Shan first got together so there is no telling how long it had been since the piano had been serviced. It gets a checkup once a year now, more often if needed.
Honestly, I am so used to that piano, and I am not a pianist so it never really bugs me much. I just like the song. Hope its not too annoying. I dont have a piano tuning plug yet.

DaBasstard/Brian,
'Communicate'...very cool...I especially like the percussion... good balance..it's never too heavy or light. Feels good throughout... I enjoyed it.

Some nice stuff in the last week;

MarkORancid; nice tune, although I thought the guitars could be more upfront; what did you use to record them? I thought maybe a little more volume, maybe a little more clarity.


Silence, I thought "button eyes" was a very good tune, I actually kind of like that barroom feel on a piano, I thought it served the song well.

I liked "turnaround" very much, nice guitar sounds. What did you use for drum sounds? You had some very elaborate drum sequencing, it sounded great.

DaBasstard, your stuff is good as always. Do you pretty much always use reason now?

Hey Roy !Its been awhile.I must catch up here!
Feedbacker was started in reason and finished in protools. Amplitube and sampletank were also used.
EADGAE is the tuning of the other tune.Its not really done yet though.

Dawner. I hear some serious overmodulation/clipping/limiting going on. Other then that i like it actually...

dawner,
Just listened to 'mind becoming'...very cool song. To me, it would be much better if the overdrive guitar(s) were pulled back just a tad when the vocal is present. And though the drums are cool too, they get a little lost in the 'heavy' spots. But I say this with it given that this is a really good song...good vocal too.
Thanks for letting me listen... ~Roy

badperson,
Another song that makes you feel good...I think you've got a very likeable voice. Now, just a comment on the mix...when the slide and bgv's (background vox) come in, your rhythm guitar just about disappears in the background, and it needs to keep chuggin, at least somewhat. Probably at least pull the slide & bgv's back. I would just keep an ear on that as you remix it (if you decide to)... but good song. Like MikeW said in his post, even with it's flaws, I can't help but like it.
thanks, Roy

badperson,
By the way, I listened to your song, 'Someday' again a couple of days ago...great job on that song. There's just an honesty about it that's rare.
