on 420 Lakeview Drive by Dirtzilla
That's awesome man. I don't know enough about Miles Davis to recognise a specific album, but I love the jazzy style and the groove.
I need to know though - is that a live sax or a vst/midi? It sounds bloody amazing! Mad props if that's you tooting that horn and also mad props if you managed to get it that way with a keyboard!

Thanks for the Ear. Back in the '70s, Miles Davis came out with an album called (On The Corner) that changed my perspective on Jazz Music and the Album won a Grammy. So to take a trip down Memory Lane, I created this track. The Sax is a soprano Sax and its live performance.

on Danke x Modnex - InTeRvEnTioN by Modnex
WOW!!
I am a huge fan of Danke and I know his band plays more like this - you added fantastic vocals to it and I think it's complete now. Fav'ed!

Thanks, Bao! That made me smile. I'm happy I was able to do the track justice. :) thanks for the fav!

on disillusion by Twistedloop
Dude!! That is really excellent! Absolutely thumping track, you don't get distracted while still including plenty variation and excitement. You could maybe leave a little bit more headroom in the mix (I think it's clipping in places) but this is really a very strong track. Well done man!

Ha, I see you uploaded our collab! That's great man - why don't you set it to featured so more people can hear it?
Oh, and add my name in the description ;)

alessandro5c replied 30th Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
I added your artist name. Sorry I decided to do an album and that's why the song hasn't been released on apple music and spotify. But it will be out shortly.

on Atari Easter Egg by BKMASONDO
The track is in F#m :) Still, close enough ;)
It's really fun! Nice structure with a break to the end and you made good use of the sounds - it could definitely have been some 8 or 16-bit game. Well done!

on U Sexy Thang by Spd2
Wow, that's all in all a really strong song. I love the section from around 2:25 (Vangelis), then around 3:45 there was another highlight and then at the end from 5:00 you tie it all together. Very strong.
I also have 2 possible improvements you could think about:
- you almost lost me at the intro. I get what you're doing, but I almost skipped ahead to the next song thinking "oh it's one of those." But I am so glad I kept listening!
Your song is plenty long enough, so I think you could cut to the chase, or maybe start similar to what we now hear around 4:30. That I think would grab the listener immediately by the throat and tell him what this song is about.
- there is a background mid-high wailing noise (it starts around 0:32) which I don't like at all :D see if you feel it's integral to your song or maybe you can replace it. To me it sounds like an annoying toddler ;)
All in all, let my "improvements" not deter you. This is really really good and I want to hear more! Have a great weekend!

Hey guy, hope all is good and well. Can't thank you enough for taking time to listen and share your honest review. I did take your advice into consideration and I agree that the wailing sound was not a good fit. Just didn't think much of it when I incorporated it into the song. My wife didn't like it much either lol. I did take a different approach in the beginning and I think it sounds a bit better. Thanks again for the kind words. Until next time.

Regards,

on Feel The Funk by Dirtzilla
The music is awesome, and so is the vocal. I like the horns and the other parts of the instrumentation - all of that is great.
I do feel the mix/EQ could be better, especially on the drums. I can't hear your kick, and the snare and hats sound cut-off, as if you have a strict filter below 100 and above 1000 Hz (throwing out random numbers here).
I think that's a shame because it's such a good track, and if you get the drums alive, it would really be so much better!
See if you agree with me (I could be wrong - I generally am wrong about mixing), but in any case, love your funk. I found another kindred soul here I think and looking forward to more tracks!
Dirtzilla
Dirtzilla replied 30th Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
Thank You for the Ear, Comment, and Suggestions. Yes, the kick is absent on some parts of the track but on those parts, it's not being played at all. and the hats and snare are gated so maybe I should check the gate. Again I want to thank you for the Ear.

on Mother Earth by beerling1970
That's bloody awesome Beerling! The drums were already a great intro and I was immediately hooked. You have a good balance between the parts with the booming drums and the bits without, to give the listener some rest. The only tiny minor thing you could look at is that your drums sound absolutely authentic while the key/synth parts sound a bit electronic; if it's midi you might find some that might fit even better.
But don't get me wrong, that would just be the final 1% and I fav'ed the track. Great job!

on DEMYBU-DIRTY FREAK by DEMYBU
That's promising actually!
You seem to have completely maxed out the loudness, consider leaving a bit more headroom. But I'm definitely curious for the full track!

DEMYBU replied 22nd Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
ofc!!! i turned up the gain so that it could be heard for the instrumental for mixing, im planning on turning it down as soon i get the vocals

on NuGroove Featuring BaoBou Remastered by kingmt77
Fantastic stuff Mark. I was just about to ask if you needed a guitar solo and then I heard you actually found Jimi Hendrix around 3:25 :D
Awesome as always!

kingmt77 replied 21st Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
Yo BaoBou, I've been working on this one for a couple of days and just yesterday I finally locked the groove in. I'm gonna work on the syncopation a little more. And yep, if you want to drop your fire guitar on this, I'll fire Jimi and give the spot to you. Thank you for your time and comments, We're having way too much fun :)! Be safe.

on Massachusetts by theHumps
Very nice accoustic version! Sounds very natural, as if the song was always intended this way (it probably was).

theHumps replied 22nd Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
Appreciate the comment!

There is an acoustic guitar in it and they posted many versions on youtube as acoustic versions of the song. Here is the studio version if you or anyone else wants to check it out:

on Robots Still Cant Sing by Kirkoid
Dude, that's amazing. It's a fantastic combination of noise and music - you could go harder and make it techno, but you in fact stayed on the musical side.
Really special!!

on LunnchBoxx - Clouds by LunnchBoxx
That's a strong track man. I love how much variation and buildup you put into it, not everyone manages that, but it makes your track so much richer and more interesting to listen to.
One thing you could consider is that now your intro is quite long (essentially a minute). Think if you can maybe move part of that to the main section - it's certainly not a bad intro (it's actually really good) but some people have a short attention span, so it's not bad to show early on where you're going.
In any case, good to see you back, keep creating! :)

on CORE RHYTHM by dvnmusic
I was actually just having a chat with my girlfriend about what RnB is and looked it up on wiki - according to that definition essentially everything is RnB ;)
I like where your track is going, but it feels to me your bass is slightly out of synch (I think it's half a note lagging behind). Can you check that?
Good luck man, keep creating!

on Jenna Evans - Animal KARTASHOFF REMIX by KARTASHOFF1999
Hey, I recognise that acapella, I also gave it a try :)
It's a fun mix! I like your best and how you used it. You could try to play with the timing a bit; it feels to me that some of the vocals could start half a beat later, but it's a hard one to get right. In any case, I liked it!

on RR Such a style by balaker
That's pretty good! Try to find a rap in the acapella section that suits this, maybe like Melvatron or MC Norad?

on Follow You by alessandro5c
Hey Alessandro, I think that super promising! You have your own voice and you're singing with passion.
I do think you can benefit from better mixing (and maybe a bit less effect on the vocals); and given that the track is 4:58 it wouldn't hurt to have some variation in the accompaniment, both so you can separate verse/chorus/break, but also to keep the listener interested, and to build towards a climax in the song.
Please take this as positive criticism, I think this is really promising, and I think you can be really proud of it!

alessandro5c replied 16th Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
Hey. thanks for the criticism. I updated the song. So I hope you'll have another listen.

on Andy Groove Sam Vince The Knot WrongSignal Remix by AnalogDisc
Damn man, that's really good. You managed to drag me from the side of your wife (I don't like DnB either) to your side... This is just a really good track!!
Isn't it nice sometimes to take an old project and yes it's a mess and you would do everything different today... But there was something there and it gave you new inspiration. Great stuff!
