on chant down babylon by throughthevalley
Bringing the vocals a l;ittle more forward and easing a bit back on the effects on your vocals would do this track great reward. Very creative piece, my friend, as always.

on through the valley by throughthevalley
This is a version of a psalm, wow this is quite an interpretation. Very original.

I was emailing a friend yesterday and we were discussing christian contemporary music. She mentioned that they even have screamo christian music, I was surprised to say the least. Then I was picturing in my head Jesus swinging his hair in a big circle in a mosh pit while his apostles jumped around trying to slam into him, haha. ok I'm twisted, but it was a funny thought.

Guess it's the message, not the means of delivery. I think King David would be in the pit up after hearing this one. Cool track ttv!

Good job coming up with a vocal melody, something I could not do, or at least anything that I liked. The vocals are a little hard to hear though.

on the end begins by throughthevalley
It appears you made a track that woul go well with my tracks More Time Parts 1 and 2. Should have let me know about this baby when you reviewed mine. I wonder if there's enough alien attack tracks on the loop fo a cd. Hmmm....

Really like this. I think you've captued the high adrenaline frenzy that woul, no doubt, exist during such an attack.

I was not expecting that change-up at all, lol. Had to turn down the speakers when I noticd a dozen of my neighbours running out of their doors and staring at me ;-) Just kidding. But that changeup was not expected.

Effective combination of styles.

This track started out very strange, lol, which is often a good thing in my books. From there, it got even better. This is a very unique track, I love it. Great imagination coupled with great production skills.

on pride before the fall by throughthevalley
I like the track. The vocals are especially good. You might want to play with the placement of the rhythm guitar a bit, that way it might come a bit more of the total mix.

Still, it's a damn sweet track

on we all here by throughthevalley
cool voice panning fx, nice mellow track to listen to, love the reverbed guitar. unless you're doing it for a noise effect, which I'm assuming cuz it got all Daydream Nation at the end, I wouldn't have the bass distorted.

on into your hands(besides myselfbyneilvisher) by throughthevalley
This a great tune with tons of potential. I agree with Wayne, check out the volumes – the distorted chorus is not working for me. With lower levels you can use the dynamics in your voice even better.
Keep on keeping on, bro!

on into your hands(besides myselfbyneilvisher) by throughthevalley
I like the effort you put into the vocal track, very creative and raw, nice layering of the tracks. NV can put a rocker together and the vocals seem to fit the music.

Just a suggestion on the mix, go for clearity in the mixing of the track over volume. I think if you brought the volume down a bit, the individual tracks will have more dynamics and impact, right now they are all at 11 on the scale, fighting for who will be the loudest in the song. I had to turn the vol down to about 60% and lost the feel and impact of the song. Maybe check your compression levels too, if your mix is good you shouldn't have to add much compression. Hopefully you take this as constructive criticism as it was meant. :)

the volume on the vocals? well of to the mixing board again.lol thanx for the feedback wayne i like constructive criticism makes better in the long run.i really do appreciate the tips.thx brother.if you could explain a bit further iwould really appreciate that.shoot me an e-mail.thx.

on her ghost by throughthevalley
I liked the song idea, but I think things got a little loud on the change in the middle and through the end. Just a little level checking, a little hiss reduction maybe. The whole beginning part was very cool I thought. Mixing's tough, no one said it was easy, especially with live tracks. Be patient with it, it will get better as you go!!

on her ghost by throughthevalley
My friend you have a fan. I love the sound that you create. That being said, this is a very good track, but with a bit more mastering it could be over the top in terms of being a very popular piece.

Personally, I like the bootleg, outtake quality to it as it, but still this piece has such great potential.

on to whom it may concern by throughthevalley
grunge feel eh...this is noise rock buddy. you're style reminds me so much of the vocalist of the old band I was in, called Nova Crime. lol look em up on myspace if you want. I love the whole shoegaze thing you got going on here, and the alienating vocal fx are awesome.

thanks dude...i will look that up aswell as your myspace links,ive been meaning to do that just been a bit busy.
