Song Of The Month Club - July 2019
What is the Song of the Month Club?
It's a place where musicians come to give and receive feedback on their work. Anyone is welcome, whatever their level of ability.
The spirit of the club is to contribute: if you submit a song for others to comment on, you should also have the courtesy to listen to everyone else's contributions and give as much feedback as possible. Posting a track and not listening and commenting on others is not cool.
The purpose of feedback is to be honest. Essentially you should give your truthful impressions of the song, whether good or bad. Negative feedback, if done in the right spirit and with courtesy, can be the most useful and can help the artist to grow and improve and correct their mistakes.
All submissions are welcome, don't hesitate if you want to contribute. We like all kinds of music and we are particularly fond of vocals (but of course we still love a great instrumental). If you are thinking of experimenting with vocals this is a good place to get started.
We ask that you only post one song per month in this thread - if you're lucky enough to be able to produce more, then please just submit your strongest material
And finally, iOS is not a requirement for posting here. If you've recorded your song using nothing but a ukulele and a Fostex 4 track, that's fine.

My entry for the month:
Our entry for this month is a song with Doc Sticko. We met each other on a French forum.

As it is in French I tried a translation:
That's right, that's for sure
Yeah, that's right
Yes, that's for sure
That's right, that's for sure
It's a very nice little island under the sun
Hot sand and tall palm trees
Kids having fun
My God, how much the Creator did it well
For us ?
We really have nothing more to plan than a good break
That's right, that's for sure
All that has been said under the shade of the mango trees,
There is everything to make a paradise,
That's right, that's for sure
And after the slave trade, the debt,
Poverty, misery and frustration
Billions to compensate settlers,
Poverty, misery and desertion
That's right, that's for sure
1791, the great insurrection,
The bravery of Toussaint Louverture,
The tragedy of King Christopher,
The Emperor Dessalines and his dictatorship,
1804, first Black independent republic
No offense to the adorers of Christopher Columbus.
Here is our contribution for this month. Sticking to that country vibe.
Love the overall production on this one and musically it’s really good. You get a great beat going right from the start and I love the introduction and the section after the first chorus. The vocals in the chorus are a bit pitchy particularly the first chorus.
The overall production is really good and there are lots of interesting sounds going on and a nice beat. I think it was missing a hook and needed something to break up the talking. Maybe steal some ideas from Eminem and sample another song as a chorus.
@orchardman thanks for the listen and for the feedback. Sorry I haven’t had a chance to listen to your song yet, I will make some time on Monday and catch up.
Its been awhile since I've been around here. I just finished a new tune, thought I'd drop it here. Excited to hear everyone else's tracks this month!
sorry for being quiet guys. Been busy with promos & stuff. Anyway, This might feel like a plug, but, it a YouTube vid.. Virtually all my stuff been signed up now.. So I thought the only way I could share with you all, without peeing anyone off.. This is the Radio Edit off my album Darren Studholme “Love Time”... This is not intentional to be a plug, that’s why I didn’t post Spotify link..
@richardyot Cool and Melodic (-melancholic). With still this flying Syd Barrett pop voice in my head. I like it. This manner you have to turn around the melody is very personal and catching for me. Kind of classy signature.
@orchardman (=L'homme du verger ?) very good country, I like it even if I'm not a specialist in this kind of music. The vocal is just perfect (less effects than the previous song isn't it?) + I agree with what you said about our song: we could have add something. I'll try a new mix if I get time to like you suggest even if (shame on me) I quietly know nothing about Eminem except his name
Hey! He know less about Kitusai!
@gburks Surprising and intense. Very good pop, made me happy and smile even if I don't understand what you say! Hope it's not a sad song or I'd be out of the tempo :-) It reminds me a bit of Tears for Fears music.
@studs1966 it's not my kind of music but thanks to share. It is absolutely pro and well done and dancing. Hey, it made shake my old butt (explicit?). I enjoyed the sax near the end and I would have liked it more in front.
@All : many styles, personalities and... talents! This forum is definitely cool with good vibes, thanks.
I have to say the quality of the vocal melodies in your last two tracks is really outstanding, well done. This one is full of melancholy but still very beautiful, and the musical backing really complements, the guitar accents are lovely.
The country vibe works well, and the arrangement and overall musicality are top-notch. No crits from me, it's a great track.
It's kind of an unusual style of rap, although Doc Sticko does have a compelling baritone which adds a lot to the delivery. The vocal is well delivered and there is a rhythmic quality to the delivery that propels the track along.
The music adds some interesting percussive accents behind the voice, and some of the sound effects are really fun.
Thanks Richard. All the credit for the vocal melodies must go to my wife. She is really the one with all the talent in this outfit.
This has a real 90s feel about it, reminds me of pre-Britpop indie stuff, nice psychedelic vocal and very bubbly and poppy arrangement.
The horns are great, and really give the song a lift.
@gburks whats up dude. great track. love the song. like the drums. live ? anyways sounds great. i don't understand some of what you say. but then again i get told that always
@orchardman ive got to say you guys have become quite the songwriting team. sounds great, your really locking your sound in. like the melody and art work.
@Kitusai very unique. i love the sounds buzzing away . and vocal sounds great. never heard anything like it . ill tell you that. it has some qualities that can be heard in a classy elevator that then goes on vacation
@richardyot you have a style in your chord progression thats almost unmistakable. your vocals are definitely a style you locked in. vox sounds great btw. trip noises you got there huh. a
@trackedout Wow! A big smile and stiff straight hair on the head! (I don't know if this is correct out of Google translation but you get the idea right?
It reminds me Marc Bolan at his best rock side with T Rex but years later with punk and Nirvana coming in between. Incredibly intense and original. I love it!
Wow really slow round here huh guys!!! Wherss @bluepunk at
Sorry I'm slammed with work this week, but I'm aware that you're owed a review from me
I'll post it before the end of the week.
Bluepunk is AWOL, he's given up on us, gone back to the footie forums I reckon...
Na I'm worried about him... Wish there was a way to ring him or something
@Kitusai I've never heard that expression but I'll add it to my mental notes. I'm glad you liked it. And to be put in there with T-Rex is awesome. I had never heard of T-Rex till recently .
Sorry for the delay, I finally made some time to catch up with my feedback.
This is a good noisy track, under all that distortion there's a catchy vocal melody trying to get out, and the backing is as chaotic as ever with the guitar and the bass fighting it out.
There's a lot of charm in your style, it's definitely very individual and I like the cynicism of the lyrics. The vocal is probably a little too processed for my tastes, but the melody is good and the song has a lot of energy.
@richardyot Hello gaffer. So, you wanna talk about football? Thought not
“Trying to get away from the mistakes of yesterday.”
Found myself stood with hands in pockets on an empty beach looking out at sea. A solemn seagull sits on my right shoulder and tells me how she wants to end it all. I kind of agree with her that she should (even though I know I shouldn’t) and give her a tablet. Just before she swallows it, a red Astra 1.6 LS convertible speeds across the sand, circles us and then comes to a stop. You step out of it singing this song like David Hasselhoff sang Looking for freedom at the Berlin Wall. The seagull perks up, smiles and flies over to your shoulder. You jump back into the car and drive away without seatbelts.
Everything is alright when you’re around. Good song Richard.
@orchardman How are you all? Have you ever had the chips from The Pig & Pen on St Helen’s Rd? I don’t know what fat they cook them in, but it doesn’t agree with me.
Ah, thank you for an early morning shower of late night melancholy. Satiny desolation par excellence and there’s a tattooist who would like this and I’m gonna play it to him. These days he inks to Johnny Cash. No better praise can I heap on you.
@studs1966 GEEZER! SUN! HAPPINESS! DANCE! FUN! I LOVE IT!
Every Saturday night, drug dealers down the street dance to music. I go down and tell them where to go (up by The Red Lion where they’ll make more money) and I ask them what music they’re dancing to? They say “It’s Deep House, you punk bastard.” I tell them that it is not and that I know someone who creates REAL Deep House. Tonight, those weasels are gonna find out. Labels eh. Does the time 14.35hrs have relevance or a back story?
DANCE!
@trackedout Hello mate. I haven’t been here a for a while so I’m guessing by now you’ve been signed and this is a fleeting visit to the club before you head off on your world tour? What car have you got now? A Lambo? A Porsche? Do you sing in the cockpit of your Learjet like you used to on your bike riding around town all those years ago? Perseverance pays off sometimes.
Listening to this, I bet L7 want to cover it already...I know I do! Musically, I hope you never change because the world needs abrasives. Good on ya.
The ending is The Ending Of Time. Sublime.
WaaayyyyyyyHeeeyyyy!!!!... Bluey!!...... Mate!!!.... Your back!!!!..... Goooooooo @Bluepunk!..... Thanks mate... Big Hugs to you % your family...
Haven’t got a song so I asked tracked if he’d ask the gals if I could borrow one of theirs. Of course they agreed. Thank you. Don’t forget, I’ll be watching you lot from the wild waves.
