Fire song, I feel the engineering could've been a little bit crispier (that's an interesting way to say it lol). I'm an engineer and producer myself, so if you'd like me to help out I'm here! You can contact me @Imwaves on Instagram.

Engineering could be better. I have got this dotted as an initial track out. I think the looperman community is made for these. Perhaps I should have left that anecdote in the description.

As far as your offer goes, I am going to have to decline, I am working at getting better myself.

Nice chords/melo on guitar, nice drums with nice bass couple ! Nice effect on the background.
All these combined is perfect !
Mixing ; you can lower the snair a bit, and push a bit the voice, we lose lyrics sometimes with high pitch background sound pads/effects. The kick-bass mixing is perfect !
Rap : I think you can find or make rap more "punchy", to move your head more on the beat.
I listen with my audio-technica headset and small JBL bluetooth, same advice.
cheers !

Precioso tema amigo mío, me encanta cómo encaja tu voz, con la claridad y la elegancia suficiente para darle vida a esta pista de éxito. Voz privilegiada. Que tengas un buen día compañero. Paz y salud.

JohnSmokey replied 30th Jan 2022 - 3 years ago

Gracias por el amor. Creo que también puede ser un éxito. Voy a trabajar para que me distraigan con las plataformas de transmisión.

(Again) Love that slacker indie vocal style and the rnb/ Motown influence in the overall sound - this is warm, melodic, beautifully produced and has a really gorgeous grove - excellent.

JohnSmokey replied 30th Jan 2022 - 3 years ago

Thank you for the love. The instrumental is very nice. I consider myself lucky to have had the oppurtunity to lay down some vox. I think I did a good job writing the verses too.

Loving that beat bro, nice work.

JohnSmokey replied 30th Jan 2022 - 3 years ago

The beat is toooo hard.

Got an old school vibe. Clean & professional sounding. Great job.

JohnSmokey replied 30th Jan 2022 - 3 years ago

Thank you, I felt like I uncovered something with this one. I am glad you enjoyed the listen.

This is pro quality stuff my friend. I can`t honestly claim to be a big hip hop fan but if there were more like this I could easily change my mind. Has a cool R&B vibe. Vocal and diction are really good and the accompaniment is totally on the money...and kudos on the production..guess that makes the whole thing just a great track John...big well done to you...Ed

JohnSmokey replied 29th Jan 2022 - 3 years ago

I was the same way in my opinion of rap and hip hop for a while. I think my vocal style is more inspired by rock.

But I go where the money is and I believe will be. I try to keep it unique because I do not love the trap music either.

Thank you for the love! Your tracks always punch the ticket.

Beautiful intro into a fly vibe and pace with a top notch vocal flow crystal clear. Top marks on sound production Smokey, like the quiet drop on the drum and back up old skool hip-hop feel

JohnSmokey replied 29th Jan 2022 - 3 years ago

Glad I could be here to bring the production. My producer does a great job, sometimes I have to sift through trap beats. I just do the lyrics and the vocals. Doing the whole trac would be too much with school. One day.

JohnSmokey replied 5th Jan 2020 - 5 years ago

I did notice that there is a little clash with the vocals and the instrumental. I am no professional mixer.

Thanks for the comment.

Nice relaxing track.. Another tight sample in the beat!!

Thanks for the reply. You're always showing love in the comments.

Nice lyrics! Although I think you could be a little more confident in your vocals. I hear voice cracks here and there. Spit those words like your talking down to someone!

JohnSmokey replied 29th Dec 2019 - 5 years ago

I wasn't trying to go super hard. I was thinking more of a track you can sit back and smoke too. More relaxing than invigorating.
