| Thanks Genereaux. Yeah I just recently learned that a little bit of ring ain't such a bad thing when recording. If the snare is too muffled it tends to sound thin in the mix. I'll try and work on that ... |

Dude, your voice and style reminds me of Tal Bachman so much (ever heard the song "She's So High"?)
This is a sweet song, great job man. |

Hey, I'm looking for any kind of feedback (mix and/or songwriting).
Vocals are a rough take.
Song Title: "Only Way Out"
Would appreciate it if you gave it a listen:

| Wow, I really like this song. A bit more of a melody/hook in the chorus would definitely make this song really catchy. |

| Pretty solid, the performance is absolutely tight. Recording is good but a bit too much low mids for my taste. Also I would consider taking the snare down in volume just a tad in the beginning, but ag ... |

Yeah the mix sounds a bit bright for me on my Sennheiser HD280pro headphones. Just a little bit though. And it sounds pretty alright on my laptop speakers for what it's worth. Good jam though  |

I have to say this mix is much more listenable. The reverb on the vox in the chorus is pretty good now. It's there if you're listening for it but not something that stands out if you're not.

Critiques: The vocals are very muddy and the snare is too loud.
But pretty solid for 3 hours work  |

| Nice work dude. The only thing I don't like is that the drums sound too distant in the mix. Otherwise good job! |

Hey man,
I like your stuff. It's very organic and authentic. Definitely no cutting corners with your stuff. Easy to listen to in the background if you're trying to concentrate on something.
