on I feel Im getting by pseudoble
Much better :)
It happened to me too in the past and several people listened and commented on various things but nobody noticed the weird ending, which was... Odd :D
Still a good track my friend, and now even better!

Thanks - just tried another little tweak to try to bring that vocal up ... live and learn hey

See you have a new one so will have a listen shortly : )

Just listened again and it seems to me the ending is very sudden. Is that intentional?

on CXRTER - Late Night Ft Xbrodie by swansea
I see this is an older track, but I love it. Great jazzy vibe and a lovely vocal too. Fantastic stuff, hope your EP does well/did well. Send me a link!

on Quentin P - Veuve de Guerre by QuentinP17
Singing is also scary... I went through the same thing. I hate my voice I can't sing oh my god no I don't want to sing... and then I just did it anyway. And hated it.

And slowly got better at it. Not great yet, and I will never be... but good enough for now, and that's all we need :)

Yes, you're right singing frigtening me. I am never in the right tone... I need to progress on it for my next song.

on Save Me by tcpscore
It's very nice. I especially like the transition after around 1:13.
As a tip, you can probably increase the master level on your track quite a bit, and then possibly gain some loudness with a bit of compression. Not so important musically, but it may help you to get it across.

Thank you very much for the feedback. I have just started looking at what compression does and how it affects music. Thank you for the tip!!!

on Quentin P - Veuve de Guerre by QuentinP17
Ca me plait Quentin, c'est tres beau. I was wondering, maybe you should try to sing the final verse from ca 2:10? C'est qu'une idee!
QuentinP17
QuentinP17 replied 1st Mar 2023 - 2 years ago
Thank's for your comment, I was aksing me the same question when I compose It. It's finaly the instrument part that I prefer for the last verse.

on K19-Tems Freestyle -WHM Mix by OriginalWHM
Yeah I'm the same, although I now have a three or four stage process:
- I write the track in a couple days and make a draft which I post on Looperman
- I spend a couple more days fixed stuff
- then after max 1 week (usually as soon as I have a new idea) I desert the track.
Or actually I don't desert it, I make a video and schedule it to go live a couple weeks/months later on YouTube.
- now a couple days before it goes live on YouTube, I take a fresh look at it and fix stuff I hadn't heard before
- then last November I took some recent tracks, again did some fixes and published them as an EP; I plan to do something similar this summer but with an album of say 10-12 tracks.

So there's several cycles of "ok I'm done" and "let's have another look" keeping it fresh. See if that's something that might work for you (some similar cycle adjusted to your way of working)?
OriginalWHM
OriginalWHM replied 28th Feb 2023 - 2 years ago
That's a great idea. I'll need to develop some sort of workflow like that. currently I just throw things together in the moment and once I'm done I'm done. Very seldom will I actually put an appropriate amount of time into projects, I just lose interest in them I suppose.. But, I do want to become better at this, maybe even make it a profession. I think utilizing a the same or similar method you provided would provide me with growth. Again, thank you for the input/advice my friend I appreciate it very much.

on Lo-Fi instrumental jam by familyvaluesllc
I like it, except for the guitar-y sound, which doesn't fully fit, in my mind.
The rest of the track is really smooth and lovely, and I could imagine youight want a bit more edge to it, but it's not really working for me - without being able to tell you what I'd expect. Maybe something a bit slower and melodic?
Good luck, keep working at it because it's a really nice one!

I need your drum vsts, they sound awesome!
Very trippy indeed! I likes it!!
pseudoble
pseudoble replied 28th Feb 2023 - 2 years ago
Thanks my friend - I bounced the midi tracks to audio in mixing so I cant double check but I think all the drum and percussion sounds come from Akai kits. Lately I seem to have half a dozen drum or percussion tracks with maybe 1 or maybe up to 4 or 5 elements in the one track. Less gives more control over the sound but is fiddly hey. Then I usually treat them differently (fx's, or sculpting the sound) before mixing - I think this one has some delay on the snare dominant track and that gives it more of rolling sound. I must admit I dont really know what Im doing so it's trial and error : )

on K19-Tems Freestyle -WHM Mix by OriginalWHM
Yeah I get that, but it has loads of energy, exactly because it isn't all perfectly in time, so make sure you don't lose that energy!
OriginalWHM
OriginalWHM replied 28th Feb 2023 - 2 years ago
I'll most likely just leave it how it is to be honest, once I've rendered a project I almost never go back to it.
I appreciate your input though, it is very valued, thank you my friend!

on With You by Micky
That start is pretty epic. The rest of the track also doesn't disappoint. Star trek meets 80s disco!
Absolutely lovely, great you brought this back.

Hey BaoBou, Star Trek meets 80's Disco is a great description... I'll have to remember that.

I like it. Strong rap, and the out of tune piano gives it a great weird sound that works well. Good job!

Thank you my friend. I should put more time into it, just did a quick one today, I may go back in and fine tune it.

on Stick it to the man by Rapresent2
I'm totally up for a jam. I have a practice room near Cambridge Heath with amps and a drumset, so if you're interested (and not too far, London is huge, I already found), send me a DM!

on Stick it to the man by Rapresent2
You can quote me on the first line too ;) yeah the clav is indeed what I meant. Great man and yeah, that guitar player is me, absolutely!
Rapresent2
Rapresent2 replied 26th Feb 2023 - 2 years ago
Excellent. I know what to work with now.

ahaahhahhhhahhahaa about the amp. Too many stories with my Ashdown 1000w cab is a guitarist's bane (not even pushing it to 4).

If we jam in a room. We need a lot of beers.... and likely cushioned blunt instruments hahaha.

Have a great evening :D

Crap, I need to look better what I type on my phone because autocorrect f*cjked that up.
That should have been: "You may quit music, but the music never quits _you_."

on Distant thoughts by ak47og
First of all, welcome back! You may quite music, but the music never quits me.
Second, and I hope you don't mind me saying this, I think you have 2 lovely tracks here.
That drum rhythm is amazing, and that music is amazing, but I think the music would feel stronger with a rhythm in half time, and similarly, I think that rhythm can lead to a different track.
You may not agree - and I have to say I also enjoyed it as is, but it was my feeling from the moment the beat came in. The intro was so amazing it could easily stand on its own.
Think about it!

on No Te Opongas Featuring Ashesndreams by doofus
Ruby/Ashes is the best :)
Really good instrumentation! If you want anything to work on, I think it would be the ending, which now leaves her hanging a bit. See if you agree, I think this would be stronger if you end on a chord on the root note, so it feels like closure.

doofus replied 26th Feb 2023 - 2 years ago
Thanks for listening BaoBou, much appreciated! Yes, I always leave it hanging, usually a little to the left.

on Stick it to the man by Rapresent2
Fuck the Tories, let's get that out of the way.
Your funk is appreciated, but not all parts seem to cooperate. The guitar and the drums are great (there could be a bit more variation in the guitar), but the bass (I think) is creating confusion.
This is something I do myself quite often; I love playing bass and when I do I often go on a rampage and do way too much, which distracts from the overall vibe. The bass, unfortunately, needs to serve the band, just like politicians should serve the people ;)
Rapresent2
Rapresent2 replied 26th Feb 2023 - 2 years ago
Thanks BaoBou.... nice end byline! I might quote you in a later song as a wise person once said.

I think the same with the bass and as an actual bass player playing all parts LOL. I think I've become the guitar player who never plays in time who tells me he can't hear me (his 4000w cab on max).

Do you mean the bass with the legato slide, or the clav (stevie wonder one - mid-bass which provides the off-beat bass pass ). I think the latter.

on Written Across Your Heart - Eds Alternative Mix by Mykael
That's a super lovely track Mykael! I love the little drop towards the end - but then I expected a bigger ending, with a full orchestra and some brass maybe?
But what you did is really great! love your voice man, so good.
Fav'ed!!
Mykael
Mykael replied 24th Feb 2023 - 2 years ago
Howdy! Thanks for stopping by and listening. Yep, the track is really a jumping off point, in terms of the vocal arrangement. We are not sure at this point what other instrumentation we might add to Ed's composition at this point. We are toying around with a few ideas. Glad you enjoyed the track, and happy you've fav'd it.

LovePeace&Light,

Mykael
