  • @grizzlegritz Yes I think I liked it. It was sort of the Presidents of the USA does dance music. Maybe a bit of banjo in there somewhere would have finished it off.

    Hi. Here's an old fashioned made-up-on-a-guitar-love-song. The title is a Texified mispronounciation of the french "je t'aime". So real guitar through Altispace, Sampletank bass, iGrand piano (what else?), Vocalive, DM1, and lastly ThumbJam strings. I think it's pretty hokey, but if my girlfriend likes it, I've done my job.

    I really like the song, and your voice really works well with it. The arrangement needs a bit of work. It feels like the guitar and keys are fighting a bit. It just needs calming down and getting a lead established. I think there is great potential there though. Good work

    @JohnnyGoodyear No plinkage from you is bad news for my ears & they've entered the Delirium Tremens stage!

    Such a noble, kind act sir & proves that the Downton Abbey era of chivalry remains firmly engrained in our blood. Even back in the 70's we used to take the enemies crombies off, hang them up for them (not a crease in sight) then kick the living shite out of each other!

    Thank you for this colossal effort of skilled reviewing. Have a safe trip. :smile:

    Being a long time gone from Blighty I have a notebook of words I no longer hear being here. Just added 'Crombie'. Who'd have thought I could ever get old-man sentimental at the sound of that one :)

    1980.The Oi era. Three bored factory working lads. Weekend fun. Musically we were heavily into the 4Skins and The Business. After the Rejects appeared on TOTP they were dumped!

    I've tried to create a slower pace of " Yob Rock " here, so hopefully it's easier to swear along to. Guitarism, Ifretless bass, Cubasis... etc... etc...

    The 3 " Oi Oi's at the very end was our calling to arms and are dedicated to Dibsy, one of the three in our crew, sadly taken at a young age. He probably bludgeoned his way into Hell because he wouldn't have enjoyed heaven. I know your listening big man ... Oi Oi Mate.

    You really get those guitar apps working convincingly don't you? Sounds great and the song has a strong hook. Love the lyrical majesty of "come 'ere and get it, if you think you're fuckin ard enough", takes me back to my days in the North Stand (where I was mostly hiding, admittedly). Fits v well with the backstory. Great stuff!

  • @ion677 said:

    Lovely bit of playing that. Would like to hear more if it turns into something.

  • @trackedout said:

    This is a later version than the one I heard on the Auria forum isn't it? I think there is a good song in there, it just needs to decide on what is going to lead and when. There is just a bit too much going on all the time, which means the vocal has to fight to get itself across. There is also some rather intrusive compression/limiting in the chorus. But I mean what I said, I think the vocal has its own effective style and I like the song itself. Well done and I glad you came over to the forum.

  • @achromus said:
    An early WIP track. Some glitches and other issues I know. Managed to squeeze some nice sounds out of Gadget plus a fair bit of automation and a little compression.

    You're right, you got Gadget sounding great there, like the background pads particularly. Felt like it could do with a little break in the middle just to give more ebb and flow, but it works really well. Good stuff

    @Bluepunk loved this one mate. The slower paced riff was great and the vocals were just right. If anything I would have brought in the ' let's have it' refrain a bit earlier and repeated it a few more times. One of my life's great regrets was that I was 15 going on 16 when punk broke in 1977 but I went right on listening to Yes and ELP.

    Thanks very much @orchardman. Not only for your kind words but for turning the heat up on that beautiful yellow sun down here this morning!

    Yep, I did toy with dropping that part in a tad more & take a verse out. I've got to be careful though as when I approach the 3 minute mark, my "Punk Time Alert" splits my ears & warns of approaching prog rock time mode. :wink:

    I've got a monumental back catalogue of punk if you'd like to get into it now :smile:
    Cheers & enjoy the Sun.

    Thanks for the offer of the punk but I think those days are behind me. I am more into americana now, very sad I know, but you can't beat a bit of banjo and a little fiddle every now and again.

    As far as my weather god status goes, I was going to post this one on here next month but than I thought it might fuck up our summer.

    The voice sits really nicely in the mix, in fact the mix overall sounds good to me. Like the percussion and bass, and the vocaliser effect was a bit of a surprise but I think works really well. It's a good song, I think I'd just like the 'rain, rain, rain' line to be a bit less, era, growl-y

    @achromus
    Soo sweet! I was pretty disturbed by how the beat dropped in out of the blue tho.

    That was a consequence of mixing 4/4 with 3/4. Pretty random. I thought I'd leave it as the result was 'characterful' but here's a much more stable 3/4 version which is probably better

    Oh thank goodness for that! I didn't want to admit that the timing pattern in the previous version had lost me when I reviewed it, but it did...

  • @JohnnyGoodyear

    @carol - Forest Circles:

    I feel that I have surely already talked about this piece. I have certainly already listened to it or let it run in the background of my life a few times. I suppose all half-decent sonicscapes are like canvases we want to project onto. Especially cinematically. This particularly. I like this a lot (can’t you tell?), but long for some Yared like slow melody, muffled piano probably. Could have this three times as long, could also cut it up into small bite-sized morsels.

    Thank you ! I thought about adding some melody , or more structured sections , but I prefer long slabs of desolate noise tumbling painfully towards the void , so decided against it lol . I've got a few more ready that are a bit more accessible , so maybe I'll make things easier for my listener ;))

    I'll finish my reviews in a few days

    Ok,put me in coach!! :) Well this is an entry for me AND my main man @Matt_Fletcher_2000.

    We started this project a couple of months ago when Matt approached me with a musical sketch with a vocal melody (yes,the melody is all his! Makes a nice change:) ) I wrote some lyrics and we figured out the music and production together from there.Ive wanted to do a song with Matt for months so this has been super cool...waaaay cooler than the phrase "super cool"!!! :D

    We would love to hear any feedback you have regarding the track.

    Cheers guys
    Leo B)

    This is really good the pair of you. A great vocal performance as always, really tight and pitched perfectly. I like the second part of the song, where the beats break, much more than the first. The kick has more low end to it and it all holds together better, although that's a small point and is down to taste. Well done, great stuff.

    Cheers very much @crouchie. Really appreciate your words on the guitar work & hook. That & the singing (to a much, much lesser extent) is where I spend most of my jamming time these days trying to up my game. North Stand! Which ground/team? Here's hoping your experiences on the terraces (how I miss them) were happy, trophy winning times.......depending on your answer as to which team of course :wink:
    Thanks again.

    hola,
    here’s some beat mirage, a collision of patterning, triq traq, aum and some ableton keys I could not resist.

    cheers, badrico

    Like that one, nice full sound, skittering arps, good groove, v enjoyable! I like the long fade out, helps the sense of atmosphere. Looking forward to hearing your next one

    I should have said a thank you first for your review. More violence?...........interesting & @Jocphone mentioned similar with the music. I really do understand. Think it's a mixture of my age & very limited musical knowledge of "how & when" to inject that threatening feel to proceedings using a guitar (app).
    I don't remember getting a leathering at Richmond station but that's not to say it didn't happen or it wasn't your crew. If I did then it was completely deserved!
    Thanks again for your comments & an extra special thanks for the broken nose! :smile:

  • @theconnactic, love the feel of Eros. Fun tune, with middle eastern overtones to it in parts. Could use some more rhythmic breaks in it, the build is nice, but a bit long at the start. Some great guitar work in there, interesting leaps.

  • @JohnnyGoodyear, lol. Thanks for the listen.

    @tgig, love the fun feel of the piece. It moves, and the mix is excellent. But it left me wanting a bit more to it, not enough change within the piece. The high melodic synth was a bit shrill for me as well.

  • @grizzlegritz, is that really your first song? If it is, bravo. Good mix, fun theme. I'm not sure the sections entirely fit together or complement each other, though each on it's own is enjoyable. Might want to try some different treatments on the voice, to, in something with such a simple vocal, it would be fun to add some effects to it.

  • @trackedout said:
    heres an instrumental i like alot. cant seem to put anything to it

    Do you mean vocals wise? The slower, looser feel of this track could make it slightly less tricky to whack some words to it, compared to your "Friday Morning" tune. I think it will depend on the story/message/emotion you want to convey.
    If in doubt @trackedout..........SHOUT!
    Enjoyed that grating guitar tone & those ghostly feedback type sounds are very, very good indeed. Looking forward to listening to your journey. :smile:

  • @technemedia I can only agree wholeheartedly with everyone here about the elephant strutting his vocal prowess. Excellent & beautiful. Different, experimental, easily listenable & best....enjoyable to the senses. Could be a tad shorter but I'm not going to say that to the matriarch! She knows best & I will agree with her no matter! Good stuff sir. :smiley:

    @theconnactic - Mocó:

    The Third Man goes to Funkytown. Literally groovy. Definition of a toe-tapper. Have strong visions of Indian whirling ladies dancing UNTIL the Big Guitar came in. Lots of nice prog sounds/style which work individually, but aren’t as interesting or as hypnotic (to me) as the more traditional formal styles. I would LOVE however to eat in the restaurant that had the food to match this tune.

    @theconnactic – Eros

    Caper movies! Many of them. Slow motion car chase. Or maybe, more against type, an overdose. Very evidently capable playing. More than that, superior playing. And I’m a sucker for anything wah-ish. Very powerfully a soundtrack to my ears, but then the bridge at 2.15 and I love how the bass comes in and plays around a little before we go back to the guitar telling its story. Like the ‘out’, but overall while I marvel at your skill I feel as though I’m waiting for someone else to walk in the door or the singer to come back on stage….this (as you will have gathered) is entirely my own ongoing prejudice.

    Thank you for both reviews, @JohnnyGoodyear!

  • @TGiG I think we've had a David Attenborough inspired month. Moco, elephant & now penguins. Excellent. An uplifting, celebratory feeling dances out at me. It would fit very well into those TV shows, at the moment where they hand the trophy (cheque) to the winner of a singing competition. Light n spacey to allow the catchiness to flourish.
    But wait.......what's that noise at 1.00? It sounds like an industrial sanding machine on speed! Very powerful. Just be careful & make sure you're wearing your safety goggles? Those shards can be painful! Nice one. :smile:

    Thanks, Rick. The sections and background and 'fit' are meant to portray 'the uglies'...

  • @grizzlegritz hey dude,good job on your first track! Welcome to the club! I liked how you varied the beat to keep it interesting.I think it's the perfect length,it doesn't out stay it's welcome.I look forward to hearing future endeavours. :grin:

  • @TGiG hey man,it's funny this song makes me think of summer! I was thinking that and then what lead do you go and use?? only one of the main hooks from The Fresh princes "Summertime"!! Hahaha! Not a penguin in sight in my mind! I liked it mate although I did feel that the lead was a touch loud to my ears.

  • edited April 2016

    Hey, @grizzlegritz: I'd fade the vocals a little higher: they sounded buried on my speakers. Also, you panned bass (kick, the bass itself) off centre in parts of the song, and this made the otherwise powerful beat to lose some of its impact IMHO. Just nits, mind you: I enjoyed your song a lot! Keep it up!

  • @grizzlegritz Welcome. Wild, free & off the wall mad! That'll do for me.
    Got a vibe that takes me back to Cotton-Eyed Joe territory with added edginess. Love the bass line that holds it together. I hear a country twang blending well with a thumping dance/disco beat. An impressive first outing & I could listen to a longer version of this with some extra bits n bobs.
    I tried dancing to it & came up with a Line & Break dancing fushiony lash up affair. Not pretty but thanks for the lively Sunday evening workout. YeeeeeeeHaaaaaaaa!!!
    Top name by the way. :smile:

  • Thanks to everyone who commented on @Matt_Fletcher_2000 and mines track.Its much appreciated. :grin:

    @JohnnyGoodyear hey man,thanks for your feedback.what do you mean by this song being more "fluid" than others of mine please?

    Hey mate, just that it seemed a little less organized to the ear. Good news; less predictable, less (for me) good; it takes a few listen to jump on/sing along with. I've listened to it five times now (twice more this morning) and I 'get' it more now. Perhaps that's why I thought album track :) For all of that I find this angle, as a writer/singer, the hardest to gauge. After writing and then singing the words so many times, I find it's hard to hear them with fresh ears etc.
