This could easily replace the definition of dub so you could contact Wikipedia to wipe the page and post a link to this song.
Nice, very nice sound on those drums and the bass is fabulous. Very trippy!
This is a great job from all of you guys involved. Now go get Damian on it.
on Dont Be To Fast by chrisseastream
I must say however that the drums sound doesn't work for the track and you could've had a better result with other drum sounds.
It reminds me a bit or Swedish House Mafia, but it definitely has it's own sound.
With a bit of production work this could also become a bit more professional.
Cheers!
on Time Has Come Feat RomyHarmony fix by chrisseastream
Otherwise the track evolves pretty well and has a really addictive vibe going on.
It could also work better if you'd make the track a bit wider to embrace those vocals and make it more impressive.
Could have also cut the vocals here and there as the first bit is just to much vocals.
Anyways a pretty cool effort.

on Pretty in Pink by SavaliDalisu
I'm gonna keep my ears on you (well you get the point).
on Calvin Harris - Bounce Remix by WongKiShoo
Loving the changes in there and the arrangement is really cool! Would be killer with a rapper in there as well to change the sound a bit. This is going in the favs!
If I get half the success David Guetta's had, I'll die a very happy man lol..
A rapper *would* be a great idea. If/When I turn it into an original song I'll be sure to put the word out.. Just need to find the right singer with the right lyrics first.
As for the mix, I'm glad it has your seal of approval! If you get bored/have nothing better to do - you can have the stems if you like? Just lemme know :)
Thanks again man
on Georgia cover featuring Rozlyne by RichieWinn
Now from the point of view of someone who has the job of finding flaws in audio recordings and fix them I'd like to add a couple of advises...
The reverb on the vocals....use the pre-delay setting and make that reverb longer(at the moment it sounds mono to me so a stereo one will work better) as it will widen the vocals and by using a longer pre-delay (above 30ms) you will have a nice lush sound that will create a smooth glue around the vocals (think India Arie - Ready for love....for a lack of a better explanation)
Overall I'd guess that I'm gonna say that reverb is needed a bit more on instrumentation as well as everything is a bit dry at the moment and reverb gels like nothing else.
So that was the technical review...
You obviously have a great set of songwriting skills and the quality standard of your work is quite high which always get's me wondering why didn't you follow a music career, you could've had a great career.
All the best!
It's amazing - you have such a great pair of ears!!! I have just had a look at the settings for the vocal on this track and the pre delay is 10ms, is mono and it isn't up too much either. I will have a play around with your suggestions tomorrow (my ears are asleep at the moment!) so thanks very much indeed for the advice. Yes, a bit more reverb on the instrumentation too maybe. It's down to me being "minimal" and not wanting to smother it all and wash it away.
My "career" in music has been (and still is) very enjoyable and the current work I produce is, I think, the best to date. I was professional in the late seventies but a band of serious songwriters didn't really stand much of a chance once the punk thing erupted! We tried!!
Thanks again for the technical advice and for the very rewarding comments on the track. Much appreciated.

on Wild Mountain Thyme by Bilbozo
Excellent choice of instrumentation and a great delivery. I must agree with Dave it can easily be played as part of a large concert.
All the best!
on Face It by DextDee
The delivery is great an the track supports the rap really well.
Very nice approach on the sample.
I'm gonna be on the lookout for new stuff.
Cheers!
hopping to get better after some subsequent releases.
thnx for the comment man. i appreciate it
on Papa Toh Band Bajaye - House Electro Mix by amar
I like the way you've worked the track otherwise and this is a very professional sounding track otherwise.
Keep up the good work.
on UnSpoken by Planetjazzbass
The overall sound was a bit dark for my taste but it works extremely well by setting the listener in a pub where there is a live performance going on.
I don't know if you have latin roots of you've just had a glass of red wine but that acoustic is smooth and intimate as it should be.
Really enjoyed this one!
on Baby Whats Wrong muzic by Richie Winn by FullCapicityMuzic
Some cool guitar thrills in there would have worked wonders, some interplay with your vocals, always works well with blues.
You both did a great work.
Note to self: Interplay more...haha
Thank you Malu!!
on Im on by Eltuddo
Anyways pretty cool and grimy! Would be nice to hear it with some vocals.
on Im Sick of You by jamesjam
Try rolling of some of the low end on those vocals (go as high as you need) and don't boost so much highs as it sounds bad.
With a bit of work on the timing and the pitch of the vocals this could be pretty good. It has a nice feel and vibe (Ryan Leslie/Drake comes to mind). The instrumental is fabulous I really like it.
on Take Me Away - DJ Malook feat Luke Barron by lukebarron
The same thing about the vocals. Not really on time and in tune. Some editing would be beneficial for the tune as the track has a fabulous quality and with proper vocals it would be great.
Hope you rework it!
Cheers!
on Something Kinda Sexy - DJ Malook feat Luke Barron by lukebarron
I would have loved them a bit more upfront and more defined to be honest.
The backing track has some potential if some transitions would be present. It sounds a bit repetitive at the moment which is a surprise as there are enough elements in there to build something great.
Catchy vibe though!
Thanks for commenting mate. Great to hear from you. It was my first experiment with doing an acapella so I'm still learning. I wanted to add some effects to my voice for my first few experimental tracks so I could compare them to when I sing a bit more exposed on a dance track. The next upload I do, I'll give it a go and take effects off.
Hope you have a good one!
on Angels eyes by Jamscience
I like the strange percussion, well not strange but wet (effected) and the vocals really make it memorable. Very well put together and arranged. The changes is mood are awesome.
Great job!
on Playa Playa ft FarishaMusic by JJKilla
on for her by FlintStone
All the best!
on Black and White Paradise - This is what we are by BlackWhiteParadise
On the verses you could go with a slightly less distorted guitar and maybe play some chords to emphasize the emotion, I don't know it's just an idea.
The snare sounds nice and smacky and there is a pretty good balance in the track.
A job well done.
on Unintentional Featuring Effluence by FreeRadical
You could add some variation to make it a bit more complex or mainly just add a couple of transitions.
Thanks for stopping by.
Did you watch the Chinese goose stepping video? I'm sure i can grab an idea or two from that. ha ha

on Remember Me - Bilbozo Guitar Track by Bilbozo
Very impressive and full of emotional charge. I can hear a lot of influences in your playing style and how you manage to combine them every time is amazing.
The first part is incredible, not that the rest is not as good as that particular part but I just feel every note in that part.
Outstanding!
on Unbreakable - SpellJammer and BonesRecordz by AllenV
Fabulous work on the guitar and the percussive elements work so well with the tune. The strings really gave it a different vibe and once that percussion came it it was just the twist the track needed.
Very good effort! I love that guitar.
I never got to play these styles with such inspiration until joining this site and meeting so many talented people.
Thanks again!

on Come home by RichieWinn
You've got some great collabs going on and this is smooth and jazzy. That Wah-Wah works amazingly well.
The track is well orchestrated and arranged and the vocal performance is up there as well.
Props to both of you!
An album of songs with Patricia Edwards would be good. We almost have enough songs too! She is such an immense talent. Glad you liked this track and thanks for stopping by to comment. Much appreciated.

on Wanna Be In Love by FullCapicityMuzic
It's to hear you branching out towards different challenges.
I enjoyed the driving vibe of the guitars, I think they really added a nice touch and worked really well with your voice.
Props to both of you!
Thanks Malu!
on Please Send Me by simmerdown
Love that bass line! The drums are amazing and the percussive elements give it a nice ethnic vibe. You've got a certain sound, your sound that's for sure.
