Thanks Jason!
I listened to a few of your songs and I wish I could play and sing like that. Loved “Just One World”. I feel that my song should be heavier with more anger, but I don’t have the chops to pull that off.
@The Now
Thanks for listening and posting a comment. I did see the documentary “thrive”, and thought it was very interesting. Some of it I found a bit out there, but I agree with allot of what they were talking about.
I agree with the above poster, you don’t give yourself enough credit.
It sounds like you’re using very inexpensive software/hardware for recording and mixing, but you would never know it from the results.
I’ve been recording and mixing for years with good hardware and software but I still suck at it.
Your song sounds very Dave Matthews like of which I’m a fan. The guitar playing is outstanding in my opinion!
Find a singer to sing over it and it will be even better.
I started out like you (songs with no vocals), but eventually began singing the songs myself.
I’m not much of a singer and have a very narrow range, but I’m not tone deaf, so I decided to start doing the vocals myself.
Some songs I still crinch when I hear the vocals, but most I don’t mind and I’ve had some local bands showing interest in covers or remixes, so that felt pretty good.
Interesting…It sounds pretty good after all that.
Do you use .aiff only because you’re using Logic?
Would a Wav file also be an option (I realize it’s a bigger file)?
Hey Tom,
Are the people you collaborated with local friends, or internet friends?
The reason I ask is because if it’s internet friends, I’m curious to how that works…as far as recording/mixing etc.?
Hi Tom,
I like all 3 versions.
The vocals are fantastic! (I’m jealous) 🙂
The only suggestion I would make is directed toward the male vocal version.
There are a couple of times where less words would work better to allow the song to breath.
An example is around the 54 sec to 1 minute mark.
I do realize that it is easier said then done, I struggle with this all the time.
Anyway great job all around!
I should probably check ezKeys out, it sounds good.
I did a remix, not sure if I made it any better or not, but I’m through playing with it for awhile.
If you listen, it will need volume. The song’s abit out there, not for everyone (political).
Thanks for the reply John!
I don’t think I explained that very well. What I was refering to was going through another dithering process when all the tracks are mixed down to a 44.1/16 bit stereo file (piano’s second mixdown).
