Evan, thanks for your comment, it is true that this track does not have much expressivity.
Thanks also to the appreciation of sound, is one of the things i looked, all the instruments well understood.
Sometimes (and this is one of them) wanted a sound and / or atmosphere that a composition.
However, i try to articulate it to have a more global view of what i'm doing (a couple of paterns not give much)
I appreciate it! This track was done 50% by Rozen, and 50% by myself. He did the first half initially, and I took on the rest of the track. Majority of the things he put initially, I didn't touch. He and I agreed that we liked the final outcome before putting it on here. His style isn't really traditional, as you can hear from this track. I also heard a lot of off things, but it wasn't what I did, nor what I wanted to fix. If those things I'm not used to are included, and was made by my partner, I kept it in, for that's what gives the track its uniqueness, in my eyes. Thanks for the comment! And also...I never noticed the backwards spelling. That's hilarious. Ookami is Japanese for wolf, and Gold(en) is my favorite color. ;)
I have to experiment more!? I seem to have this habit of getting this stuff down and then the grand idea of working on it more but then I have another idea and its like a viscous cycle of nothing, but hey, when I have spare time there is always something to do! If I ever get to it... Haha, thanks again!! :)

Thank you! And yes the intro is poetry :)! The guitars are played only the drums is programmed! But thank you again and feel free to use the track for something ( especially singing ;)
Thanks Evan, I do love my Guitar Effects. :) I am just always looking for a tone that stands out a bit. The Guitar effects I use on this is the same as all my other Psychedelic flavored tracks. I would be happy with A Singer, a female soul singer would be awesome. Thanks for leaving some feedback and for taking the time to give it a listen.
Soft bed of tones you've created. Great guitar sound and seems rather polished. Lead guitar tone is heartbreakingly forlorn and plaintive. Love it.
Vocals are great. The delay's mix knob sounds cranked. A bit distracting. Some Ts and Ss sound a bit harsh when echoed. The feedback amount sounds good, I'd just like to hear the delayed signal to be a bit more "distant" or "corroded" compared to the initial dry vocal.
Overall, fuggin loved it. Everything I've heard from you has been spectacular. You are a new favorite of mine. It all tastes great!
Hey Evan,
Thanks for your your suggestion and turn in to comment,
i still try over the delay at this track ,we´ll see whats happen,nice review my friend and thanks for the listen,i´ll try not to disappoint you,Cheers DRO
Lol...well that's a complaint I can handle. :)
I really appreciate the positive words my friend. Always nice to hear you did something right. Now if I could only learn how to sing a write vocal melodies.
Thanks for taking the time to give it a listen and for leaving some feedback.
Thanks for listening and commenting. Yeah it is a bit tiresome after about 10 seconds. Not gonna win an Emmy with it for sure. I was channeling a 1976 Univox String Machine and once you get that sound going it's hard to stop. If I felt it was worth it I'd go back in and tighten the mix up. It is what it is. Thanks for listening.
Only issues I heard were some clipping/static sounds coming from the lead guitar solo, the low volume of the main guitar, and it sounds like something is clipping in the keys at the beginning.
Really just some clipping here and there. I really like the song. Nice mixture of different feels. I wasn't expecting Rap-Rock. Works very well!
Thank you for listening and for your comment. I am an old "Rap-rock" kind of guy,lol. But I do have some songs in other styles I will be posting. Most are in m4a.mp3 so I am having trouble posting them. But when I figure it out I look forward to more great feedback. Thanks again
I can say nothing in the way of critique. I'm impressed and always look forward to a new one from you. Thank you for the song, and the download. It's going on the work playlist.
Haha thanks very much...really wasn't sure about this track - it was essentially an experiment on how good a tone I could get out of a £50 guitar and and old Boss GT-6, so your comment has made me a happy chappy! :)
I absolutely agree with you about the kick!!! I have a tendency to almost ignore the bass and drums after a while (typical guitarist!)...definitely a habit I need to break!
Cheers for checking it out and the feedback!
(keep your eyes peeled; I've got something darker, but equally brutal brewing...just have to remember the kick!)
I like this a lot. I'm into the kinda dark melodic stuff. Good tones throughout. The tom fills seems a bit too programed compared to the rest of the drums. That's my only advice. Overall loved the feel and the tones again were spot on.
If I created a god for myself to believe in, he would speak like you. Very deep and cryptic, but slipping in some very modern speech, like "LOL", that throws me for a loop.
I enjoyed this track. I love to give constructive criticism but can find no faults in your track. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
open art the clouds, for down pours the reign of thoughts to which splashes the minds in form of quench, refresh, fullfillment .protection from such is not necessary, for truly this is a storm for the mind to nurture, so walk as far as the eyes can feel, touch beyond the hands of time and devour to the learn of how tests awaits sanity and where sanity fails to live or dare dream, confusion is always just a step away to make for certain that lost forever, shall be the wanderers of peace wanderers of time and vagrants of understanding. as the winds of change breaths into the life of hope, there streams tears of joy for each victory gained via share of human mind connect splashed by reign of love and peace..... truly touched am eye by your deep visions and in-depth review many thanx for the time taken of listen as eye am glad you have enjoyed and ...err herrmm gone easy into lax of constructive criticism SJJ(seriously just joking)......well at least it's not LOL....heh heh .....much peace friend
I always look forward to your tracks. Great voice and you never disappoint. Seems to be one of your better vocal deliveries. Yes, is could be louder, but it's fine where it's at. Pretty impressive for just loops.
I really like the concept you have here. A bit of a Star Wars meets Major Tom.
Two small issues I think could make this track a bit better. The vocals are a bit pitchy, but far from bad, and the hi-hat doing steady eighth notes. I feel it should be quarter notes at some points. Using more than one hi-hat sound would also help break it up some.
I'm relatively new to drum programming, but I think this could help some. There are others on here that can give you MUCH better constructive feedback. Set your track to "Featured", comment on another's track, and your track will get much more notice.
Hey thanks for the advise. I'm not entirely new to the process but I do get a bit lazy when it comes to drums. I'll change it up and you can have another go at it :)
As for pitchy vocals.... I'm partial to the weirdness that comes out when I'm singing. I wouldn't know what to do if I sounded more professional :)

A few notes on top of each other that probably shouldn't be. A few dissonant spots.
The quick plucking of the acoustic is neat, though it sounds pretty fake, I still like the line.
Overall I liked it.
By the way, your name backwards is "I'm a kooned log". If this has an meaning to you, good, but I don't get it.
Take care.

Vocals give a very U2 feel to this beginning.
I do hear small pops and stuff like that so there may be some spots where you could use crossfades or auto-fades where your tracks touch or begin.
I enjoy the vocals very much. I appreciate unique voices and there is something there that makes it very not U2,... which is good.
Fully dug, this track I have.
Evan
Old School is in my veins,i love it.!
I was just trying to live the great 80's vibes lol
As for crossfades or auto-fades , i'm brillbilly not Oakenfold lol.!
Cheers for your kind comments.!
peace!

Your voice sounds good as always, but seems very "comfort zone", though you do say it's a bit rough.
Ever thought of doing an accompanying track a 5th higher? I do like when you layer vocals.
Thank you for sharing, take care.

Quite the meth-head cello solo, followed by some nice bass distortion.
Then Link goes into a warp. Very video game transition. Very odd. Reminds me of some Mars Volta.
A few odd notes around 3:20.
Very original composition.

on Pigs1 by donel
The speed of the picking is up there and exceptionally clean. Is this programed or played. Description didn't say. Seems very Motorhead. I do like it.
All very nice, some guitar tones could be improved, but it's really impressive if this is played.

Playing on them skinny stings quite a bit. High tinkling is pretty nice (shrill when I do it).
You need a female soul singer. That's it, you've got the rest.

Big fan of the palm muted guitar lines. Good tick tock sound going there.
Lets loose at 4:10 and sounds great. A few odd notes but they work.
I enjoyed it!
on Have No Regrets by topvega
Solid riffage, tasty modulation though deep, triplets are nice touches.
Every solo part makes me quite jealous. Tones are great.
See! Nothing to pick at or anything. Loved it!

on You Speak To My Soul by Badhuman
String holding at 1:09 is a bit tiresome after about 10 seconds, then holds for another 40.
I don't mind the high end hiss, noticed but not minded. Mostly just that held note that could have been an underlying second melody.

on Forbidden Love by DESTERO
Vocals are a rarity here, good ones even more so. Your vocals are exceptional. A joy to push play!
1:10 drums pop back out and sound nice with the toms.
Guitar solo tone is of the sweet crunchy over-driven variety. I get awful guitar tone so I am envious.
The "Whoo"s are a pleasant touch.
Strings are nice and floaty in the 3:00 area. Some awesome acoustic work in there as well!!!!
I truly enjoyed this one. Only thing was the drum's volume at the very beginning. That's it. All I can muster. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Evan
good to know that you like,i fixed the drums right away.

1:14 is nice, like the orchestral!
PIANO AT 1:36!!!!!! I love when piano is worked into heavier stuff!
My only complaint would be the kick drum sound. Everything else in the track sounds recorded live,... except that.
All and all, this is some killer stuff you have here.
Outro is friggin great as well!
Evan
I absolutely agree with you about the kick!!! I have a tendency to almost ignore the bass and drums after a while (typical guitarist!)...definitely a habit I need to break!

Parts remind me of Hurt, and I'm a fan. Nice mixing of the two early guitar lines. Vocals have the vibrato much like 36 Crazyfists, also a fan.

Pretty solid eighth note plucking in the verse parts.
3:06 is a nice change-up. Can hear a vocalist doing some great stuff from there on.
Overall a solid track and is ready for vocals. Awesome job!

Thanks for stopping by and give this track a try :)
It's always good to have someone who understands the theoretical side of music!!!
