Wow so so good - wow wow wow. I just finally after years was able to put a vocal melody into a track as I developed it from scratch, so like right now especially your clarity in singing and pitch control really stand out to me. Great job!!
well we recorded this with the most minimal of equipement..im glad it turned out the way it did.. thanks for listening.. it means a lot when someone else enjoys and takes the time to review someone elses songs.
hey man wicked song! i dont think it needs the bass lol nice soft backing vocals from the female...who is that?
i think this song works really well buddy...i wouldn't add bass...but if your gonna..just re record it on your acoustic and EQ a bass boost in it...personally i would leave it out buddy
Great song!
caught this one on a featured! awesome loved the harmonies very cool! there is nothing sweeter sounding than the voice of a child!
impressive.........................thumbs!..........G.
hey man i think this track is pretty sweet, and shows alot of potential, u have a great voice and with some time spent, could definately crank out some pro stuff!
real pleasant tune man, i suppose thats what you were going for but well done. definately brings peaceful thoughs ideal for sleeping. Thanks for the reviews by the way, What program do you use now to record?
thanks for listening... im using audition 3.. it seems to be working really well and it comes with alot of tools...i don't know how it compares to fruit loops or cubase though...
I enjoyed this one!! Nice vocals and clear!! The chord progressions flowed nicely!! Read in one of your replys you were going to give up-- NEVER do that- because that is how we learn! Outstanding Job! and thanks again for reviewing my songs!!
thanks for chequing in... i was just gonna give up on that song cause i couldn't get it to upload properly...but i'll always continue playing music...thanks again
Very nice song, very sweet lyrics.I definitely love the sound of your guitar and your two voices really match together(maybe you can call it destiny).It's been years I've tried to write a song for my kids but I never did something worth.I'd be very happy to collab with you on a song if you want to.
PS:Thanks for your review of "Shine".
absolutely..i think it be wicked to work together sometime.. when you got an idea let me know...the only thing is were limited with what we can help you with we don't have too much to work with.. were still waiting to experiment with midi... i guess you could say were ...low budget!! ha thanks again ehh??
My family are into this one big time. The guitars work so well together, and the catchy little repeat-riff just makes it happen. My only complaint is I wished I had wrote this !! Excellent song
thanks... i just wanted to do something fun with my 6yr old savannah....she co-operated long enough to get her voice clear into the mic...she didn't go to bed after......
DUDE KILLER CLEAN GUITAR MAN I PLAY GUITAR MYSELF. I WANT TO MAKE A REMIX OF THIS HIP HOP STYLE IF ITS COOL WITH YOU. CAUSE ITS TIME TO REMIX "AND YOU KNOW IT" LOL
Hello again,
Really nice and sweet track.It's always tempting to add something to the song but sometimes it just spoils it so personaly I would keep it as it is or maybe add a clean guitar solo (slide?).It's funny because when I listened to your song I was writing one for my wife (I'll post it in a few days)
See ya!
nice song. good job on the harmonies. lead vox needs less verb to sinc up with the harmony. i suggest adding any vocal reverb after you take a dry track. sometimes a bit of room sound on the overall mix does the trick. certainly with an acoustic track like this. if you ever need a little bass, hit me up!

thanks for chequing in again...im gonna do just that. leave my voice mostly dry that's the way my girlfriends voice is...only thing everytime i go upload a song it seems i have to burn it to cd then convert it to mp3!! Im not sure why, but it's kind of annoying. anyway thanks for listening again..
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....
Great little track arranged just as it is. The male vocal does need to come up with respect to the guitar track, and don't be afraid to pull some verb off of it. If you're using a bunch of EQ on it, try recording it flat instead, or only dialing out some of the room "honk" if there is any. Trust your voice and your gear. :)
It doesn't *need* more instruments, but it might be fun to have a cello come in on the 2nd verse to provide some bottom end. If you want to use regular bass guitar, then a bass part should come pretty easy to someone who can Travis pick like you're doing here.
thanks for the tips...so i'll take some reverb off..i am waiting for some midi cables to add a little something to it. i don't know if i want to repeat the the bass line with a bass though. cello would be nice but there doesn't seem to be any cello players on looperman.
This track sounds OK - no distortion or vibrato. In music terms I thing this one is great !! got a real "folky" sound to it what I like. I know everyones different but I would add a piano and a mandolin...
hey thanks for listening.... i think it does need a little something else, im waiting for a midi cable from ebay so i can experiment with other instrument sounds... thanks again and yeah i think i'll change it to folk...
Very pretty song. The vocals are great, but seem a bit heavy on the reverb on the male voice. It sounds like you recorded it in a huge room, standing on one side with the mic on the other. The guitar is perfect; I particularly like the picking part at ~1:30.
What are you looking to do with the bass? I imagine a very subtle strings coming in at a build toward the end, but that's just me.
i think it's a little too much too. but it's very difficult to tell through my headset. i need reference monitors i think. and yeah something really subtle like that ...maybe with a cello?
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
thanks for reviewing...guitar was old 12string mic'd up.. with doubler effect from waves bundle.
The vocals were my girlfriend jen...she had 4 seperate tracks on it. and we screwed around with the levels.. glad you enjoyed it.
