on ANTARCTICA - Second Nature by secondnature1
I have a real love of minimalist ambient and this is a great example. Delicate. Sparse but engaging all the way, nice mix of elements. I did a drone thing myself the other day called composition 7. Lovely listen before I go to sleep, thank you.

on Back and forth by Shaman77
Hypnotic my friend. Excellent. Lyrics sound bitter. I would only suggest your voice could be a little louder in the mix.

Thanks, I haven't found harmony in music and vocals yet, I'll work on it.

on Pitch Black Part One by Pnnywze
Cool intro man. This has an impulsive energy to it that keeps driving it forward and the samples definitely give it a cinematic feel. Some good variation in the dynamics too. Top job Aaron.

on The Robots Sing by Kirkoid
Must have missed this one previously. Very cool and great concept. Definitely got SciFi vibe going on. Yep, I think it needs some totally wild screaming synth somewhere along the line. Well done bro.

on where you are you never will know by rockoff
I always check out what you post. I enjoy the raw punk attitude you seem to convey. I enjoyed this too. I think you should keep at it, improve the mix a little. But still liked it as is.

on Track616 by TheBride
Beautiful and totally arresting in it's apparent simplicity. Loved the processing on the vox. I knew from the wave form this would be something different and cool! Keys at the end are worth waiting for. Somehow I knew they had to be coming... Great stuff for me.

on Handle by Danke
I recognised the first guitar part straight off but then the vocal came in. Works really well. I wish I could hear the lyrics better, I caught the part about killing my boy friend, in that very angelic voice too lol. Hope you have a great New year.

Danke replied 31st Dec 2023 - 2 years ago

Happy New Year brother!!!
Fistbump,

on MISS3D by 3CL3CTIC
I liked this from the first chord. Had several listens. I like the lightness of it. Kind of thoughtful too but with a sense of fun. Very good wee journey you took me on. But now I'm trying to work out who your other persona is!!
3CL3CTIC
3CL3CTIC replied 29th Dec 2023 - 2 years ago
Thank you! I appreciate that feedback very much. As for the other persona, it's not as important because it's mainly just a creative outlet, I'm not like a popular artist at all lol. But thank you for you feedback, and have a Happy New Year!

Yo Ian, 5 minutes well spent in my opinion. Lush, immersive and dreamy, mix sounds great. Happy new year to you!

on The Vein by pseudoble
Excellent. Love the laid back loose limbed feel of it. Guitars are awesome.
pseudoble
pseudoble replied 24th Dec 2023 - 2 years ago
Thanks Chris - yeah there's my guitar and I think 2 small samples of guitar as well. It came up a lot with the addition of the vocals - I was surprised they made that big a difference

on Speed Xmas NoTimeAtAllSong by joecramer
Ah yes, I believe you are a man after my own heart with regards to things Christmas. Very punk and very good fun. Quite a contrast to verdigos track lol.
joecramer
joecramer replied 12th Dec 2023 - 2 years ago
Thanks a lot Zootman for your nice comment. Fun is the key!
And it is sure good to know that people can enjoy a 25 years old little punky track even in 2023.

!! Free the Christmas songs !!

I wish you and your "family" a nice and FUNNY x-mas
stay tuned

Damn this is a beautiful and angelic listen first thing in the morning. Really like the drums, bass lines are great. Love the restraint and empty spaces. perfection in my book. Thanks for the upload.

on 4-4 - Take You Home by BaoBou
Hard to compare without being able to flick between the two versions. But the mix and production certainly sound good. Bright enough and great definition. Lucky you!!

on Everything is Wonderful by Chasmchaser
This was a great listen for me. Your guitars are sounding really good, I liked the flow of the composition. Semi ambient really, which I always enjoy. Nice reflective track.

on Wicked Sensation - Cover by Bilbozo
Cool man. This works great. Classic rock sound. Your guitars are as wicked and tight as usual. Your singer is awesome! Fantastic mix, I've got a long way to go in working out how to mix and produce electric guitars. Any tips welcome!

on 4-4 - Take You Home by BaoBou
High octane fun, great stuff. That lead guitar at the start is on fire. Vox and harmonies are right on. My only complaint is the fast fade out...
BaoBou
BaoBou replied 5th Dec 2023 - 2 years ago
Haha yes, I thought about this. It can probably take either another chorus or maybe some giant finale with brass and screaming guitars etc.

Or maybe a fade to just bass and drums :)

on Life will arise anyway by Shaman77
Love is indeed still the best, without it there is nothing. Emotive and simply beautiful. This is outstanding, well done both of you.

This is awesome bro, one of my favs from you. You picked a great track, and the words and performance are unreal good.

A little Amy Winehouse type beat. She's great! Thank you for posting a comment glad you could enjoy it. I had fun making this one.

on search by xstokes
Aptly titled and described. Beautiful with some great seamless transitions. Did you ever see the movie Touching the Void? Worth a watch, though the book is better.
xstokes
xstokes replied 3rd Dec 2023 - 2 years ago
hey there Chris! i saw the movie in the hazy vhs years, some images remain and i always coveted the title. glad you brought that up, i’ll watch for the book in my used shops.
BaoBou was a catalyst in getting to the mix you heard, he had me reimagining the first half with his gtr added, it learned me something i hope! cheers, brother!

on ten piece take 1 by bringerofDOOM
Love the intricate, finely enmeshed arrangement. Hints of dissonance make it poised on the edge of darkness. Great track for me.

on falling stars by xstokes
Beautiful, ambient melancholia. This has a gentleness to it, not savage as these experimental pieces of yours sometimes are.
xstokes
xstokes replied 16th Nov 2023 - 2 years ago
i’m glad it didn’t tip too far into the shambolic, i really tried cleaning up the act on this! cheers, Chris!

on Black car by Shaman77
Very cool, visceral verse. I hear robots and a sense of urgency.

on Ice Planet by StarTravels
Buckled in ready for the trip....lift off into the funk yeah. Great track Micky, your musicianship is obviously outstanding but more to the point, your music is immensely pleasurable to listen to. Those two things don't always go together... Last track I listen to tonight, good to go out with the best. Hope Jynx joins us again one day. Kia ora from Down Under.
StarTravels
StarTravels replied 12th Nov 2023 - 2 years ago
Hi Chris, Yes, I also hope that Jynxz appears again at some point. But that probably won't happen for now - he has good reasons, I know that much. I created this background story so that it could be officially announced that this will be the last Star Travels track for the time being.
Thank you for your great compliment... and the nice greeting!
Peace from Neanderthal,
Micky
