on Do You Fancy A Drink by Musicante
When does your tour start? You guys sound like a live band jamming. Vocals always add to a track, that was good to hear. Seasoned pros having fun, always a pleasure folks!

LOL, a tour would be great if we all weren't on different parts of the planet! I wish we could all get together just to meet.

Many thanks for your kind words, Wayne.

Ciao,

on Mykael Covers Adeles When We Were Young by Mykael
I have never heard this song before, it's a nice pop song. I don't listen to the radio much. I can't imagine the original being much better! I am enjoying the way you are mixing your vocals now and I must say your performance is fantastic. I noticed the words are well pronounced and clean, you paid a lot of attention to detail with the vocals.

Your neighbors are fortunate you don't play the drums. ;)

Beautiful track!

on Dance of the rebellious ragdolls by traz75
I couldn't help but laugh at phatkatz4's comment, ha!

Very cool production, all the pieces of the puzzle perfectly fell into place. The introduction is built up nicely then the guitar takes the track in a different direction. A good variety of changes and some cool effects like the delay you used on some of the loops. I like it! I am going to dl this so thanks!

on Vengeance by Fl4zh
Honestly, I couldn't tell you one thing about electro so I am going to comment on how I felt about it. I came away with a feeling that this track could be used as a cinematic piece. The constant pulsing of that note reminded me of a heartbeat or a machine in a hospital that monitors your heartbeat. I could hear this in a cyber thriller type movie during a chase scene as there seems to be a feeling of tension or excitement.

on The Warriors Decision by jaytakill
Powerful track man, mean, nasty, thick and heavy headbanger's music. I would try to cut down on some of the loudness by adjusting compression or limiter you have on either the tracks themselves or on the master track to give the track some breathing room and make it a little easier on the ears. There is some ass kicking music happening and with a few adjustments this could sound even better.

on Abandoned Sanctuary by Orlando51
Made me think of ice crystals forming on a window on a frosty winter morning. The wind blows the light fluffy snow in every direction as you quickly scrape the ice off your car windows hoping your car starts in the frigid temps. I don't miss those days one bit but we did get frost the other day.

I liked your last track as well, similar concept and just as interesting and can be interpreted many ways.

Wayne
Orlando51
Orlando51 replied 27th Jan 2016 - 9 years ago
Yes, I agree...it's a similar concept as the previous one
with a bit more versatile palete of instruments and sounds.
I really like your alternative imagination that the track evokes for you and it's absolutely true that it can be interpreted in many ways.

Thank you so much for listening and for this friendly fedback...and the 'fav' ofcourse...means the world!:)

on Ed - feat Tumbleweed by VickyDan
Breath deeply and relax, exhale, aaaahhhhhh....

Very calming piece of music. Dig the guitar, subtle early on but shines like a beacon in the light in the second half. Nice changes throughout the song. A bit ethereal, spacy and dreamlike feeling to the track. The vocals suit the piece of music, some nice effects on them, the guitar and the overall piece.

Well done Dan and Ed and the lady singing!

on This Mean Motor Scooter by Evisma
Once I read the lyrics I had to laugh. This one rocks and i like music with an attitude. How are you processing your bass? The middle part is a little less rockin but it stays within the context of the song, badassery.

Mix sounds good, I can hear all the instruments separate in the mix. Rock on dude!!

Wayne
Evisma
Evisma replied 28th Jan 2016 - 9 years ago
Master Wayne, how are you?

"How are you processing your bass?"

Same as always. Line 6 pedal, it gets compression, very light chorus and a digital delay, then into the interface and DAW. The biggest thing is that I record EVERYTHING twice, getting each line right twice, then panning them. I never duplicate something and pan it, it's always a separately recorded line. That is what gives it such a full sound. I hear SO much bass guitar that sounds like it was a D.I. feed that just got dumped in the middle of the mix. Tool's "46 & 2" grabbed me by the chest when I first heard it. It really made me feel like the bass was the most powerful and colorful instrument.

The middle is a bit more calm, but I felt the bombastic flankings needed a separation.

Thanks for droppin in!

on The Deep Dark by toastedavalanche
This is pretty cool, such an awesome vibe here. The lyrics are simple, to the point and tells a good story that the listener can absorb themselves in and feel the same emotions the singer is. Mix is great, the "pings" at the beginning set the stage, the drums were nicely mixed I dig the effects on them. Vocals sit real nice and give the song a hauntingly eerie, deep in the ocean sound.

Very well put together on all levels of songwriting and production.

Wayne

on Run Right Past You - Instrumental - Vocal Ready by BradoSanz
Pretty solid sounding track. The bones are there, some might say. Reminds me of The Church's "Under The Milky Way Tonight" the way the acoustic is played and the overall flow of the song. Like everyone else, some proper vocals will be the icing on this one!

Happy anniversary dude! One year here and you're still sane? lol Great loops,too!

on Night In Tunisia by ScottB55
Damn man, this is impressive! A quality piece of music and production Scott. I don't think I have ever heard this song before but I may go check it out on youtube to hear how Dizzy played it on the horn. He was fun to watch play as well.

The piano is extremely well played and a nice tone to it. Is is real or a plugin? Drums are perfect, I can hear all the parts of the kit, toms sound great and I dig the rim shots. How many mics on the kit and where did you place them, just curious?

Fine job, as usual, you are having a good year so far. I will thank you for the dl!

Wayne

ScottB55 replied 24th Jan 2016 - 9 years ago
Hey Wayne,

Thanks a lot for your kind words. This is a favorite jazz piece, in which I've done this and another big band version done a couple years ago.

The drums are done with my Alesis electronic kit. It's much easier than trying to get a good sound out of my acoustic kit. That would be a nightmare!

Cheers,
Scott

on Uncle Johns Boogie by ScottB55
Whoa, Fantastic!!

I've been working on a dixieland type style with some rock thrown in for a few months. This one is more authentic though. I am a fan of dixieland and have a few greatest hits cd's. It's energetic and full of power.

You really managed to put this song in a specific time period, great job with the arrangement and instrument selection and performance. The horns are great and the banjo sounds cool as well. Way cool vocals and crowd noise.

Great job Scott, going to dl and fav, thanks!

Wayne

on Winter bites by traz75
Some cool changes of pace, certainly pretty creative use of the loops. I have come to expect that from you. The mix sounds pretty good as well. I liked the acoustic guitar loops and the sax sounding lead you used in the middle of the song was a nice touch.

Cheers!

Nice track smallpaul! I miss mosaic posting this kind of quality music. Lots of energy, cool piano and a mighty fine mix. I liked the vocals, just enough with some nice effects on them and throughout the entire song. I don't claim to know much about this style of music but I know this sounds damn good to me!

on The Last Road by toastedavalanche
Like others have said, very cinematic piece and very well done! I read every comment and totally agree with them all.

I know what you mean about liking your own vocals, I am the same way but try to find a singing range or style you feel comfortable with and use it to your advantage. I had always sang backups so it took me several years to find my comfort zone for the lead. The singing is pretty good here. Ed mentioned David Gilmore and that's what I thought instantly when you started singing. It would work great on a concept album. I also think the length of it is good and getting all that you accomplished in 2:38 is a very good sign of some mighty fine songwriting.

Cheers!

Magnificent track, beautiful, hopeful and promising are some of the feelings I get when listening. The mix is great and the instruments are well played. You two guys are great composers on your own and even better when you collab!

on Dawn of the legend by DijamMusic
Hey jamid, good to see you posting! I can't say I listened to much of this music back then but like Ed said, you couldn't help hear this kind of music played in movies and all sorts of clubs and stores, airports... It's nice you could write a song for someone's child and time stamp it to a certain period. Good skills!

It's well put together and nicely mixed. I like all the space in it even though you used what seems to be a lot of sounds and instruments. There is a lot happening and it doesn't feel cluttered or overdone.

Well done jamid!

on Modern Disease by Spivkurl
Hey Spiv, totally dig this. Unique music seems to spill forth every time you post.

Wasn't it your town that had a recent shooting? If that is true, how were you affected by it and does it reflect in your music? Hope you and yours are well!

I like the idea behind the song. A "Modern Disease" can be thought of many different things these days. Great lyrics and neat sounds work well together to set certain imagery in my cranium as I listen. You are one of a kind!!

Cool track, gonna dl, thanks for sharing!

Wayne

Spivkurl replied 3rd Jan 2016 - 9 years ago
Hello Wayne, I'm happy you stopped by! Also pleased that you enjoyed listening to this one! As far as the shooting goes, I honestly try to restrict the flow of news into my brain. Not to say some of is doesn't get in. I do not watch the news, or read the paper (unless I'm trimming herbs on said paper). I seem to remember something not long ago about a home invasion which ended in a shooting, and I think it was in our neighborhood. From what I know of it, it was a very personal situation, which is the case with much of the crime in our area. Many people are far to trusting when it comes to who they allow into their homes, as well as into their lives in general. Much of the local news is very biased these days, and Minnesota has become one of the most racially biased locations in the US. Really, I was too focused on my own government/police/legal battles last year to be too concerned. I'm glad you can see the various circumstances that the idea of "modern disease" can be applied to. Really if I had not been short on time, and somewhat restrained, the song could have been much more verbose. Heh. I really appreciate your feedback and conversation!

on I Aint Ever Coming Back DEMO by ImproveWithError
Merry Christmas Kyle! Sounds great, mix is your best yet. The vocals are out front and the acoustic tracks are set just right supporting the vox. It has a little feel of the Allman Bros. thrown in there. The recording of the acoustic guitars sounds live, recorded through a mic. It will be cool to see where you take this and how much you add.

Cheers!
