I'm not really into folk stuff, but your tracks are amazing. You really have a good vision, this is incredible what you come up with, I think I've got a new idol!
Wow awesome, this is something I am not used to hear at looperman, and I of course mean that in a good way. This is some high level artistic stuff I hear, great job on the vocals. The backing track is simple but it totally suits it. Looove the flute twist at 2:50
The only thing I noticed right away was when the vocal came in, is that there is too much low end on it only, no high crunchy frequencies hearable, so it sounds super warm, while the rest of the track is crisp, it's a bit out of place in terms of mixing. (eq and whatnot)
But as I said track itself is awesome man! Respect for that!
Thank you for the comment Skate Teen! I'll let him know what you said fasho! Though I personally enjoy the lo-fi effect.. and lo-fi snare sounds bad I think anyway.. But I'd like to hear it the way you imagined as well.
I didn't expect the guitars and after that also Rock :D ( I did not read the genre before playing this track) A really nice touch to it, I tought it was a hiphop instumental xD Awesome stuff!
I've heard the best comment I would ever want to hear.
It is a matter of genre, whether the song likes or not. But mastering and mixing requires professionalism. I care very much about this subject and I am working on it. It made me happy to receive a good return on the subject I care about.
I am no fan of dubstep but the initial part of the song and the parts where you used it troughout are more then enough reason for me to fav this song xD 10 out of 10, love the ending, good choise there! :D
Thanks, eighteen. I'm a big fan of Daft Punk as well. They are truly experts with vocoders and, I think, talk box as well. I don't know what they use, but I don't think the vocoders are VSTs. I think they are original hardware units. I need to go back and listen to their stuff again because I think there are some good lessons about what works well and what doesn't.
I'm not quite sure what your referring to as "low end guitar". Since Kargalar did the rhythm guitar I'm not exactly sure about his set up but in his profile he mentions an SM-57 which is the same mic I use for recording live through the amp. No mention of what he's using for effects but I would assume if hes recording through the amp hes probably using pedals and in this case it sounds like overdrive, maybe slight distortion, so he could be using a Boss SD-1 or maybe an Ibanez Tube Screamer. Of course hes pushing the amp, with a fair amount of gain. Hes also playing a PRS Mark Tremonti SE with dual humbuckers which is a very potent guitar that can produce some quality tone. I'm playing a Suhr Strat standard with 2 v60 singles and an SSH HO dual. Its a direct in set up here with an amp sim. I applied delay and reverb effects in the vst.
There is a bass track in there but the guitars and drums are clearly more dominant in the mix.
The easy guitar you mention is all Kargalar and yeah, I dig that too. That little section works perfect to de-pressurize things, drop the intensity a bit to allow some cool string and stick work to lead in to that nice build section. I know its kind of short but its pretty much dictated by the structure here. Stretching it out wouldn't work as well.
Don't know if any of this really answers your question bro but I gave it a shot. Thanks a lot for the comments.
My comfort zone right now is 'Melodic Dubstep' so I think switching it up to melodic dubstep on the second drop would be good and it turns out fine, btw thanks for taking the time to listen.
Hi Eighteen, Thanks for your comments and the fav. Well, good question about the left pan. I did this all on my headset so it sounds different, but thanks for pointing it out. I did change the pan to center and it does sound better. Thanks.
The song itself is really awesome, only thing that I notice is that everything seems way to hard compressed/limited, so everything sounds on the same level and seem to push each other away.
Regardless, sick beat and rocking vocals, Love it!

Just a question, how can you have 16 of your tracks to featured at the same time? is it a bug?

It's a bit long as a song since this is just a 12 second loop, I suggest you upload this to the Loops and Samples section :)

Commented on M-ilios ft Farisha - Pages Of My Past by ts61
I looked at the Waves and saw one block of sound, so I was expecting everything to be smushed together.
But instead it is mixed masterfully!
everything is mixed perfectly in a sense of not a single sound is fighting to be louder then one of another.
Vocals are also slamming on this track!
A Dang good job man!
Cheers!

I immediately faved this track purely for the background loop to begin with :D.
as for the vocals, its perfect calmly and menacing at the same time like the vocalist from The Cure - Lullaby

Well to awnser your question, in my opinion yes. :)
I mainly say this because I hear no rock at all in this one. So I would put it under weird, but that is just my opinion.

The riffs are damn nice, how is the low end of the guitars done? I also tried but i never get the low end right, is there a bass guitar added?
The easy guitar around 2.30ish is really nice, wish it was a tiny bit longer xd
Mastering is very well done and have zero complaints!

First attempt?
xD I don't believe that, but if its true, its really awesome, the double drop is sick xD
Jokes aside, I don't recall ever hear one of your tracks before so I have no idea at this moment what your usual comfort-zone tracks sound like.
But this is really awesome enough for me to put this on my play list instantly!
Awesome job!

This track itself is perfection!
Crazy sax solo, but I have one question, why is the sax so far panned to the left?
The switch at 2:57 is the best hands down!
All in all, It's a killer track!
