Description : I re-uploaded the song after making several changes to the VU levels. OOPS, Like I said my first recording. Also converted the file from MP3Pro to MP3. A big thanks to Barry Morgan for the bass track.

If someone would like to contribute some kind of hook as it was suggested in a review we'd appreciate that also.

If for some reason it doesn't play or you like this cover, then please me know.

Taking the swing out of it makes it feel like a whole different song. It takes courage to reinterpret a song this way instead of doing a completely straight cover. I was reading about your travails recording this thing. I don't know if anyone mentioned getting a compressor for vocal recording, but it's a good idea. Vocals can be TOO dynamic. They give everyone fits. Anyway, very cool cover.

this was our first cover and when i recorded it - it was clipping all over the map... and i didn't even realize it. I'm just learning who to use software compressors... but it's a learning process.....still loads of fun though....

First, I love this melancholic folk rock song.Then,the instruments really sound great especially the guitar.What did you use to make the vocals sound like this?
Dying to hear a new track

a good chord progression, nice vocals, with good changes! i can see where your coming from with this track. Only 1 problem- the bitrate! It sounds distorted beacuse you need to change the bitrate to over 160 kb! so just convert it to a higher bitrate and you should be fine!
JensTonic
JensTonic replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
thanks for stoppin in. i had already increased the bitrate over 160. and changed it to best quality vbr. and it was still causing me problems. This latest upload i converted to mp3 from cd format. so i hope it works. cause if it doesn't im gonna have to leave this one alone for a while.
thanks again

JensTonic replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
thanks for listening. were gonna get around to doing a little more with it and im not sure why it doesn't play that well off the site. maybe i should download it under a different format.
but thanks again. i wish i had even half of your talent with the guitar. :)

For some reason your track didn't play 100 % right. (a bit like when the old casette used to slip) and I got a slight tremolo effect. I did mange to hear what you have put together and I think this is a big step in the right direction. For me, the song has to grab you and thats what your song does. Catchy addictive lyrics and tune. more !!!

you asked for it so here it is. first recording nice job. your singing, lyrical content, playing and compsition are great.
you have a few technical hickups but who doesn't for your first recording this is great!
you should do some reading on vocal recording. how to use the mic properly for solid levels. also read up on mixing and eq this song doesn't need any bass that could be taken care of with some eq on the guitar and your final mix. if i were to do anything different would be a hook or solo with that 6 string guitar of yours. nice work and welcome to looperville!

Thanks for the review, Im gonna look on line for some more advice on vocal recording and eq'ing. Too far seems too distant and too close it clips.
Thanks i will check things out.

This track I finished today ( mixing and mastering ).
Kinda dark electronic and atmospheric track.
Vocals and lyrics by Alaa Ezzeddine ( the acapella from LM ). If you're claustrophobic, don't listen to this one :) :) :)
