dimestop

its always great to see the avatar of my fellow city dweller, i'm honoured to have you stop by bruv and your comment is just inspiring as always

hi Rita, thats right went all Blues because of you inspiring it and sparking an idea, i did try a few higher peaks in places, rock and roll might be a struggle lol but you never know, i still want to do a punk number and another rock track but dimestop will always pop up with his attitude

glenn i thankyou again for gracing me your time, i've tweaked a few things for a better finish and your spot on about it being a tough genre, especially singing wise and as i have no experience of Blues, i thought it was a decent effort considering the voice is forefront and open to critique, which i have no issues with either as long as it's constructive

Kay before we heard you sing, you were and probably are still a poet, i remember Oli mentioning it, so you know how important finding the right words are, and then getting them heard as you want, i thought there was good emotion in this delivery and people tend to compliment my raw emotion, i don't really know how to do anything but, lol, thanks for your kind words
i've just uploaded a better master

thankyou, i'm no blues fan myself really, its ok, but Rita gave me the spur to try it, i really liked the lyrical content i wrote I thought it fitted well, the mix and volume levels have now been altered and i'm much happier with it. thanks again for your inspiring comment, it does,t sound bad on speaker either lol

cheers Robin, it needs a few adjustments, minor tweaks, volume wise, i'll have a look later, but overall i'm happy with it song wise, i'm chuffed you got a 60's 70's vibe i want it to sound older not modern day

thanks for the check bro, most people including all my friends loved this vocal its certainly not overpowered, the music is bright my vocal reflects that brightness, there is 7 layers of my voice on this all different not one of the volumes are above 43% and it measure -10 on the LUFS mastered -9 to -12 is what to aim for thats standard, my limiter isn't even registering nothing is in the red so i can't understand the overpowered, i'm good with it because all the plugins are in their sweet area not one is above 50% and bro i'm certainly not offended by your comment either lol, i'm just explaining what i can see on my meters and they will always be my guide because thats what they are made for lol

hello Aaron thanks for your kind words bro, i don't know what to call my style either, when i first started as you know, i wrote good lyrics but always sang them tongue in cheek, mostly rap but Manuela changed that and my mindset when she sent me Warriors, i started to take it more serious, stretch myself vocally and keep going, my timing was awful my voice was rag and then more coaching from Manu, i'll never be lionel Richie lol, but i know i've improved because even my kids say your 10 times better than a couple years ago, i'm currently working on 2, not in my DAW yet, but they all prepped to go, rap banger next, then a massive soul blues i'm excited about, inspired by Rita's attempt bro, im going all teddy swims lol,

thanks for the listen Richard, your time is appreciated, my friend, i will be checking your latest out a little later thanks again for the listen and comment

thanks you bro, means more than you know, i loved the comment but one word stood out 'original' thankyou, so much, thats what its about originality to a rapper lol, wait for the next on :)) the old heads will know exactly whats coming

cheers mate, ive got another one next but it's a bit harder, bad language and manners, who me? never :)))
i love the guitar, and i mean the instrument, i know you play, i really need to buy me one, i don't play but if i buy one i will learn, i have alot more music theory now notes chords key scales and i think i could learn bits quicker, i have a few friends who play guitar,
i was one handed keyboard playing when i started here, im now two handed and 10 fingered, still shit, but just look pro lol' nah i do sound alot better my mate was stunned when i played him a piece i wrote because i just started to jam and play with the keys 6 mins non stop he was like wow

thanks Anthony, your comment is really nice mate, you have always greeted me and my work with warmth and that warmth is inspiring to me and keeps me motivated in music, along with a number of others here i consider you an established artist and i'm just getting to know the new faces that joined in my absence, it is a little different and a lot quieter but i'm ok with that as i am not about as much as before, the electric guitar seems to be well liked too, thanks for your time bro it's always appreciated

hello Mrs, i was quite happy with this vocal chain its a keeper me thinks,i got a lot more choice plugin wise for vocals emphasis and luxverb are two new ones for me, they are top notch my engineering has improved also, I'm far more expierienced now, i don't just wing it,i feel like i know what i'm doing. i know what i want sound wise and i feel like i can get close tomit now.
byetheway, you inspired me your blue's numbers, i heard a great track on youtube and i'm gonna have a go, its massive for me, its my teddy swims moment, just wait its less teddy swims more dime sings but i am really positive about it soul blues, yrah baby

thankyou Dan i love the guitar too, dimestop is my alter-ego, he is a big headed get, and bullies me to let him lose, i put a lot into my lyrical work my strongest point some would say is songwrting, if you get a chance check out Hydrosphere its in my profile a collab with Danke, now that is a guitar, one of my best too lol rock, and me being hip=hop all day long :)

thanks Kay, when i recently upgraded everything i lost lots of my saved vocal chains so need to work hard to get some new ones collected as they are great for work flow if you only have to tweak or disable

thanks bro first in a while, just finished the next, i might upload this weekend, i'll check it out, good luck bro, i really want the best for everyone hope you get a break

thanks BaoBou first one back its a little rusty but new ideas lol

thanks Aaron life in general is good and health too, but i was in the wrong head space for a few month and just stopped and changed everything including work i felt a little lost and anxious on the road hotel rooms, thats a young mans job, so changed things and i feel good now and its good to be back

yes i'll get it of you bro, you could always stick it on the discord if thats easier, i still have it just not visited it for months

lol thanks for the time bro, everyone suffers thats just life :)

thanks Chris, i'll be here less often but still play a part, yeah I'M trying a few new ideas out, i'm just about finished my next mastering terms but I'm in no rush, your latest is top quality mate, i was impressed, speak soon Chris

lol, hope your good bro, i got some nice stuff to come, i'm back at it just less often, i took to much on before and in the end it pissed me off cos i wasn't enjoying it as much but i'm in a much better space now

thanks Leo, i'm back about, more to come :)

if you have a cluttered cutting room floor it shows you put the graft in, mine is a mess always, i write a track it sinks in then i sing off the top of my head but i also ad lib and add bits that just come into my head at the moment, i bin loads of it, i'm never satisfied ever really with mine to be truthful, but i'm enjoying it again at a slower pace, i'll check your new one later when i have an hours listen, possible late one it's the weekend :))

hello Rita, i thought that myself but i have been playing more keys lately and i had the track wrote along with another half dozen and i had the music a while and tried to fit it, its ok, i liked the music alot but the subject matter probably deserves a natural track not a hip-hop piece but i wanted to put up something new so went with it as i didn't have anything else, i had promised a comeback 2 weeks before, so i just jumped in.
and Mrs always tell me what you think (the truth) we're besties you only have my intrests at heart. first one back i'm a little rusty lol but i got some good ones to come fun as well will have you smiling and i got a new rap track too typical dimestop :))
