Jeez.. MrKT.....I've just become a fan!...I like the way you play with the note of your voice and compliment it with great orchestration....this is very good work indeed...I can hear a lot of influences in your work......but It comes out in a very individual style that is totally your own...Bravo!...cheers planet
Hey MrKT...Howdy..first time I've heard you....This is really excellent!..it's quite beautiful actually.....a very interesting time signature at play..love your voice!..very sensitive rendition of an always troubled subject........ welcome to looperman...............cheers planet
It is. Nice track. I like the melody and real band sound. I find that one of the toughest things to do, specially since I don't play live very much. Bringing the lyrics up a bit will be good. I'd like to hear more of them on this track. 2 Thumbs up.
Thanks for listening and your mixing comments. I've heard that before so I did tweek up the vocals a bit. It's funny I always say the same thing, I want to hear everybody's vocals up front except my own.
hey, that's a real nice song!!!!
tight playing, good guitar solo .....
about the mixing: you should set the vocals to the middle of the mix, they are panned out a little too much for my flavour ....
anyway, I like this track!!!
great work, man ....
Hey...
real nice job!
when I work I find myself focussed on three areas...
Composition: I think the melody themes and vocal and instrumental are very good...one thought is that the song goes on too long with too much repetition (I always struggle with that) try to keep my attention as a good pop rock song should.
Recording/production: I think any "hobbyist" always has a steep learning curve with the software...its one thing to have all these great ideas but another challenge to actually get them into the project as you want and imagined. I think you have done a good job...also one of my goals is to use Reason4 to stretch beyond the typical electronic/techno we usually hear produced and to get a good rock sound out...I use Cubase SX to record guitars and vocals and dump into Reason with NNXT or Rex Recycle....curious how you did yours???
Mastering...ah yes, the make or break point! always a struggle! On your song one suggestion is to bring the vocals out to the top and front...not to overpower but to clarify...right not they are a little lost. back off instruments during vocals and back up during solos etc...I am a novice and am finding that there is a lot of written material out there about EQ, limiting. maximizing mastering etc...I'm finding that like most tasks there are some tried and true "tricks of the trade"...might be good for you to research some of this stuff if you haven't already....
overall I like it and am impressed and encourage you to keep up the good work....
Hey thanks for taking the time and giving such a thoughtful review. I think your review was on the money. I think I'm going to be tweeking and editing the song a bit more. When I'm done with the midi files in reason I convert them to wave files and bring everything into Sony vegas for audio recording and further mixing. I seem to have a bit of a latency problem when I import audio files into reason. I don't have any problems turning them into wave files or even when I'm recording, only when I import audio, so I never do it. Thanks again, Kevin
