Hi Alkie,
Wanted to get a couple reviews in here of your tunes as you did a couple of mine recently.

I like the vocals as you have a nice voice. I think the voice could be brought out to the front more, and the easiest way to do that is lessen the reverb some.
I like the music as well and think the song was well written overall.

Hi Randy thanks for listening, i had a newer version of Drean Theater`s Wait for Sleep that i just uploaded today, since your reveiw reminded me that i hadn`t updated the track thanks again.Vocals are much more up front in this new version but i got some room hiss from layering my vox, hopefully i`ll pick up Izotope`s RX soon to fix that.

hey, you got a real good voice!!!
and the song is awesome too ...
though I would reduce the short delay a little bit ... sometimes the sound gets too sharp (especially the vocals when you use a word with an "s"), and that's a sign that reverb and delay are set too high ...
but that's a technical thing ... the song is absolutely great, top composition and arrangement!!
love it ...

peace, rei

thanks rei, the composition and arrangement are all down to Dream Theater it`s their song. The piano was done by a guy on you-tube and i added the vocals. As for the delay and reverb. I have it set to my normal 50 milliseconds and my plate reverb is only on at 1% mix, the vocals were recorded 3 times once in stereo which i left center and recorded right mono and left mono, which i panned each 60% opposite with my delay on the left. If i redoe this in the future i keep in mind what you said....... thanks again.

Description : My third rap song. Still not entirely sure how I got here, but I'm having fun with it. This time, I brought along my alter ego, Cool Grandpa. He's got more swagger than I do and helps bring a little street cred (although not much) to the operation.

Description : Unfiltered. Just me and the Squier Stratocaster. Comp edited the recorded guitar freestyle clips so it all sounds like it was recorded in one take. I used one of my old beats. Trying to get my guitar to scream was my goal, but in the process i made the guitar make sounds i didn't know it could make.
