Description : Thats my second presentable RnR track - I just started w/ singing, so I am not that experienced yet thus I would appreciate to hear you vocalists singing / humming on it - need to have a melody.

Rockabilly greetings.

This is some very authentic rockabilly you have here. Very retro. It's not my preferred type of rock n roll genre but this is really well done.

Great timing on the guitars and an incessant groove, which is what you really need for this sort of style. Proper old time band-based dance music.

1:48 there's even quite a cool little solo.

Well produced though perhaps it could do with a heavier bass sound. And kick drum. That's a bit weak.

Is the ending perhaps too abrupt?

Thanks a lot for your valuable reply, I intentially cutted the mix at 80Hz since it buzzed a lot through my monitors but need to doublecheck with different speakers I guess :-) I had the idea for the outro relatively on short term but wanted to complete the track somehow on the other hand.

Hey Ben,

Really slick bit of guitar playing and straight up Rock A Billy !
I got turned onto Rock A Billy when Brian Setzer and the Stray Cats came onto the rock scene in the 80's. I'm also into Hot Rodding which has embraced the low brow culture and this form of music is very popular.
Sounds like you definitely got your rig set up properly and the tone is spot on. Are you in fact playing this on a hollow body, maybe Gibson or Gretsch? The first electric guitar I ever played was my Dads Vintage 1963 Sears Silvertone hollow body.

I dig man, I must hear more !!

Thanks a lot for your stunning feedback, good to hear you love that music too - I am quite diverse in music styles but as well much influenced by my dad hearing elvis and stuff all day long ;) I am not playing that on a hollow body but on an Les Paul with a standard R&R setup but for sure little finetune applied.

Description : I'm gonna file this under Drum and Bass due to the beats I used. Though it's probably not DnB in the strictest sense of the word, as it starts off with a Cinematic vibe till the beats kick in (apologies for that, as I don't have a vast knowledge of DnB!). Apart from the beats and a couple of other loops, all synth/bass parts are played by me using ThornCM, Poly Max and Z3ta+ vst's. Let me know what you think? All feedback is always appreciated. Thanks.

Description : Technology is a great thing. But I'm glad to know that if it ever fails ... or simply isn't there ... I can always play my guitar or drums, or just sing. In any case, the power didn't go out during this production ... so it's electric. And eclectic.
