on Bleed Out by toeslap
That's really nice! it has quite a few of the things I like to rail against as a grumpy old man, like overprocessed vocals and electronic drums with clicky hats, but you know what? both work really well here, and I really enjoyed it. Good job.

Thank you! I'm extra happy you ended up liking the song even though the ingredients are not your favorite. I think I understand chefs a little more.

on New Possibilities by leronir
Very nice intro with the guitar. Some great chords there.
However, I think the whole track is mostly that one loop? That's great, but next track see if you can take it further and add in some variation or counterpoint or verse/chorus structure. Good luck, music is fun!

Hahaha nice, I like how you wrote your own blurb as if you're the third party publicist.

Good track, nice and mentally! \m/

on Here and Now by LoopTrap
Nice! Any new songs coming out soon? :) There must be some melodies in your mind and you must have grown the past 3 years, right? :)
Looking forward to more!

Of course, college has been kicking my ass and not gonna lie, I've been slowly putting down the DAW due to schoolwork, normal work, and various other stuff :(

on Closing in on the edge demo by randalld
Strong track, I like your vocal and the background vocal (female? or head voice?) works really well with it.

Good luck with the album/tape, I know how much work and frustration it is and also how much energy it can give you when finally finished!

randalld replied 11th Oct 2023 - 2 years ago
Thanks BaoBou! yes it is a sped up female vocal. I'm really looking forward to spending some time in the studio with proper equipment, it is a lot of tedious work but its going to cool to have some songs that aren't made in my basement lol. thanks for the good luck

on Mono no aware by AE03hua
"According to Norinaga, to "know" mono no aware is to have a shrewd understanding and consideration of reality and the assortment of occurrences present; to be affected by and appreciate the beauty of cherry blossoms was an example of this knowledge provided by Norinaga."

I'll be very honest - I spent the past 5 minutes trying to understand the concept but I don't think that's enough ;)

I love your track though and I could totally see it in an anime!

\m/ Nice, always good to hear more metal :) and cool to take such a well known folk song for it!

on Big Face Hunnid - Grafezzy x Steve Lewis by SteveLewis
Good track. Looking at the wave function you can probably get a bit more out of it by compressing the bass (I think that's the loudest now).
The female vocal is excellent btw!

on crush by xstokes
My favourite bit is around 0:35 with a great beat; after 1:05 or so the compression and distortion is a bit much for me though. The bit around 1:50 is very good (and a relief ;) )
Interesting track!

hey BB, yeah i was a little frustrated with this, your listen prompted me to keep working on this, so i really am happy for your feedback, bro. i think the current version now is pretty sick thanks to you!

on Top Of The World featuring Grafezzy by DeeJayNick
Hey Nick,

I'm listening to this one again, and it's great! So 2 options:
- I was full of shit in January (certainly not impossible)
- or may e you made some updates? :D

Verder ook Liefs uit Londen :) Ik zag Hattem/Nederlandse Antillen - wat is het? Ik hoop dat je net als ik een band hebt met CuraƧao? :)

on Sad Hip Hop Piano Instrumental by kabuzbeatz
Nice! See if you can find an acapella that goes with it - or maybe do the rap yourself ;)

Not sad at all,I actually quite like that! Makes me happy and I'm not even a big fan of the genre, so... well done!!

on Epikur II ft Michael Mayo - Moment 4 Life Remix by Fawalther
I like it, but it feels like you compressed it too much to the point of distortion. Now I don't have the best headphones, but can you check your mastering?
The song is really cool btw, I just get distracted by the sound and I think you can open it more.

on Look What Theyve Done To My Song by theHumps
Haha I didn't know the original and didn't know that was an actual title.
I think your version is better than what she did with it!
I was looking forward to hearing you sing in French though ;)
theHumps
theHumps replied 6th Oct 2023 - 2 years ago
I was thinking about singing the French parts but decided to do the version where she sings the na, na, na's. I took 7 years of French in high school and college so I have some practice with the French accent, oui.

Thanks!

on Headland - to the sea by Jkingz
Gave it another listen and you know what... either I was overly critical in April or maybe you made some minor changes but I love it, and I don't really recognise the little niggles I had back then. The vocal is still incredible, but I actually really like your slow intro now and the build-up feels great.
I hope you'll tell me you made some minor changes, but I know I'm full of shit and I fully expect I listened to exactly the same track except now I give it a 10/10 :D

on JUST PULL THROUGH by weston63
Lovely chill track. The guitar-y sounds are synths/midi I guess? Still nice!

on Somebody to Love by dlo40831
Lovely stuff. Great you did this with your dad, and some cool minor-major modulations (I'm a sucker for that).
Cool vocals too!

dlo40831 replied 3rd Oct 2023 - 2 years ago
Much appreciated! I have a lot more coming. He is 64, been playing since he was 16. A real master guitar player, we have come up with some really fun and different songs together. The vocals, we aimed for a California Dreaming vibe. Guitars all mic'd up amps or acoustic.

on STEP IT OFF by T576
Exactly :) A large part of the joy for me is in playing everything myself.

I started creating songs from drum samples or using acapellas, and nothing wrong with that... but it's just fun to roll your own. So I always appreciate those who play live. Kudos!!
T576
T576 replied 3rd Sep 2023 - 2 years ago
Yea BB I agree with you on the second comment. I don't have a problem with sample writers, I have studied music, I sight read as well as being trained in theory, yet all that has nothing to do with being able to compose a song and know what the drums should do or what the keys should do. It takes time and practice to achieve some form of success when coming up with original material, and I, like you, would rather do everything myself because I can. PEACE. T576 OUT.
