Description : A heavy-ish Rock track that has four main sections, melodic moments, a few soloing attempts in the hopes of continually getting better, and a rather quiet frog. All real guitars and basses played by me, with SD2 behind the kit. An organ, strings and a celeste make appearances. All critiques and criticisms are welcome. Let me know what you think and how it could be made better. Nice to post something again.

Hiya Evisma! I love the high energy of this track and the intensity of the guitars. At this juncture, you are probably gonna HATE me! LOL

I would let the song speak for itself and nix the soundbite. The organ/strings (0:29) sounds very 90's to my ear. I'd either drop it or replace it with real strings. I'd give the first transition a bit more punch, maybe roll the drums (1:27). The second transition I actually had to listen to several times before I got it; and when I finally got it...pretty damn awesome!

LovePeace&Light,

I fel that this is a giant release of energy from you. I'm not even going to critique what i heard yet, but just feel that emotionally you are letting off a lot of hidden steam.

Hey man, summer keep you busy? Sounds like someone's been practicing!

I do like what you were doing during the bridges, were you finger tapping the strings on the neck of the guitar or picking it? They were good changes that lead to built up guitar expressions that sounded pretty damn good if you ask me! Let it all out Evan, Hell Yeah!!

I knew a Celeste once. Didn't sound like her. Where do I send the check again? I'm a believer. ;)

Take care.

Greetings, Master Wayne.

Summer has kept me a bit busy. I've taken up bass fishing, which has become an unhealthy addiction.

Bridges were picked on an acoustic with my fingernail. They are very short, but I write nearly every riff fingerstyle on an acoustic, then assign lines to different roles. I've never gotten into tapping.

Give Celeste my warmest regards.

Take care.

This is so freaking good. The guitar tones are gorgeous, the transitions are bold, but well done and the riffs are inspired. Loving the bass sound as well. Oh and who doesn't love a good organ section.
Favourite bit has to be the break at 1:27 and the whole middle section. It's progressive, trippy goodness. It builds anticipation as we prepare for the next heavy section (which does not disappoint).
Definitely a fave!

Hey, Mr. Avalanche, I'm very glad you liked it. I hear a lot of issues with it, but I think that's everyone who creates their own music. Still, I really appreciate the kind words from someone I'm a fan of.

Take care

Description : Sorry to bombard with the same track. Here's the final version of the track I made using an Acapella from Looperman by JakeBuzzard. Now remasterd and with sub added plus scratches and more independent equalisation on drums / doubling up on a few instruments. I've also increased the volume on the samples used and the main vocals - as mentioned before, I'm deaf in 1 ear so struggle to get a good stereo mix, honest feedback is welcomed please

Description : A dark, melodic trap instrumental with a hypnotic bounce and a smooth, atmospheric feel. The production blends haunting melodies, deep 808s, crisp drums, and subtle textures that give the beat a cinematic edge. At **148 BPM**, it moves with a fast but controlled energy, leaving plenty of room for confident flows, catchy hooks, and melodic vocals.

Perfect for artists looking for a **dark trap, melodic rap, street rap, or moody R&B-inspired sound** with a modern feel.
