Thanks Wayne! This was a fun one to write because I don't really play the piano and only have 25 keys on my keyboard!! I've been wanting to try my hand at composing an orchestral piece, so I'm glad you enjoy it.

on Up Late by AllenV
This is great, the drum track is nice and clear and the guitars are great as usual! Man, I would love to hear Pat Benetar or Joan Jet or some other female rocker lay a vocal track on this. This is just a cool rock track Allen, glad you put it up!

I'm gonna dl this and fav it cuz it's just that good!!!!

AllenV replied Unknown - 2027 years ago
Hey Wayne,Thanks...Man I wish I had a female vocalist for this cause it would be the best thing that would fit...also a little early Cheap Trick vox would be cool also,or I should have asked Tacatta if he could do anything with the song but I'm afraid I may have lost the separated tracks,and I would need to edit the lead for vocals...or have to re-record it!
Yea,I hung on to it cause I always wanted to add to it but the end of year challenge was too tempting so I let it go...for now :)

Thanks my friend!

on DFI - Untitled by SGN
I liked how it opened up, it set a nice tone right from the beginning. Calming but it has an edge to it making it a bit, ummmm, edgy, haha. That's me, man of a hundred words, haha!!

Nice track overall, the mix was sweet and it was a bit ambient, chillout in a way but what's in a genre. Great job for the year end challenge!!

on Zentai Love - ZenToy (Traxnctrl short mix) by TraXnCtrl
Jeesh Trax, you are getting some great sounding mixes, this is sweet sounding. Like most songs that don't have guitars in them I'm a bit unfamiliar with the original but I still have to admit that you are blowin me away with these remixes. Nice job with the effects on the vocals and I like the synths sawing away at my eardrums!!

Cheers!

on Now that you have Gone third remix by DanielGtrman
Well look at you doing rnb!! Now you thought my techno track was different for me, right back at ya, haha!! This is quite sweet! The bass sounds nice and smooth and it is a very well executed composition. Sometimes a backing track like the strings can just be the icing on the cake. Impressive Daniel, you never let me down!!

Thanks yet again Wayne for another quick-fire review. I'm thinking this track needs a slight change somewhere so maybe a good vocal may give it that ingredient....

Nice track man, this rocked!! Mix was pretty good and I liked the sound of your guitar. I could hear Dave Grohl singing over this. Well done!

Wayne
Adaora
Adaora replied Unknown - 2027 years ago
Honestly, ever since I read this review I can't get Dave's voice out of my head. It just fits somehow. I'm working on lyrics for the song and possibly singing to it too. We'll see how it turns out. Thank you for the positive feedback!! :)

on Una Noche en la Opera by Vicen
The acoustic guitar was great in this. Now that you sent me all those video links I can see where you are coming from with your music. This is just a little different than your other tracks, kinda rockin on this one Vicen, I like it a lot!

Wayne
Vicen
Vicen replied Unknown - 2027 years ago
Indeed, my music comes from all the music I've heard, both international and national level. Years ago in my country poprock is sung in Spanish and has some nuances pecuñiares. I drink from these sources of music, of all. I can not keep one style, so I think my songs are different from each other. For me it is a joint effort, but I know some are more rock, sometimes a touch of jazz, country, Latin, etc.. I believe that this pop music began.

on Stadens klockor by Kikajon
The mixing and mastering is nice on this. You are using the whole stereo field, the mix is wide, so nice and it seperates the instruments nicely.

Here is a tip. In Audition, use the chorus(in the modulation tab) to spread each track out even more. Push all the sliders on top to the left except spread. If you do that and adjust the controls at the bottom part of the plugin you can widen or narrow the guitars(vocals, bass...) and if they are panned left and right you will make them fill the space even more. Experiment with this, it's a great way to make things sound big and full, especialy if you only use a couple instruments.

Nice job, with this!

Wayne

Thank you for the kind words and the tip, I'll try that. I realize that the application has tons of potential, I just have to figure it out.

on into your hands(besides myselfbyneilvisher) by throughthevalley
I like the effort you put into the vocal track, very creative and raw, nice layering of the tracks. NV can put a rocker together and the vocals seem to fit the music.

Just a suggestion on the mix, go for clearity in the mixing of the track over volume. I think if you brought the volume down a bit, the individual tracks will have more dynamics and impact, right now they are all at 11 on the scale, fighting for who will be the loudest in the song. I had to turn the vol down to about 60% and lost the feel and impact of the song. Maybe check your compression levels too, if your mix is good you shouldn't have to add much compression. Hopefully you take this as constructive criticism as it was meant. :)

on Winter Ice Feat Lucky Feather by Luckyfeatherstudios
I think you did alright on this track. You need to keep working and working at it and things will keep improving, that rule applies to everyone including me. You have your own style and approach to lyrics, some people may criticise you but keep expanding and working on your style.

The music, vocals and mix were decent, you should be proud of what you've done here!!

Happy holidays, doughi boy!

Nice voice, pretty song! I think you could have the vocals out front a little more or the piano back a little more in the mix. Not much though but I just wanted to hear your voice louder because is was just right!!

on I Was Made to Lose Control by clinthammerMUSIC
You certainly set a dark mood and tone with the music and at the same time made the vocals just as dark by adding the effects.

I like the idea, your wife has a great voice! I look forward to hearing what you do to this!

Nice mix, that's the first thing I noticed, sounds great. I like what you did with the vocals, extreme but still understandable. Liked the lead section of the song, the two instrument parts worked great together. Nice snappy beat, cool track K.
