The only problem I have with this piece is during 0:58 till 1:17 and 3:12 to 3:31, where those guitars come in. The delay time you chose (or the speed of your strumming) makes it both seem out of time with the drums and me cringe.

those parts are the only things preventing me from giving you full marks :)

...playing this in my high school jazz band. Brings back fond memories. :)

Good mix, and certainly fits the objectives of the 3 instrument challenge. It sounds kinda thin in the beginning, but you thickened it up with your great piano programming. Keep up the great work!

hey, how that I didn't knew that you were playing in a jazz band ?
thanx for review, actuallywe plan to make a thinner live version, without piano
I've heard also just sax and percussion, that was cool (I guess I'm in a very minimalistic mood these days)

"Cool!"

You have a solid lineup of reese and drums here. But your mastering completely guts the song - did you put a huge notch in your reese somewhere around 150hz? It sounds VERY thin and washed out, which is a shame because without that, it would sound amazing. :(

Thanks Rig! To be honest, there were many aspects of this track that I intended to fix and never got around to. I may have to go back and polish it up some for the sake of not feeling like I gave it my best effort, as it wouldn't be fair to the other contestants! I can say that the bass was giving me the most trouble, as it may have been over processed a bit. There was strange resonance feedback / clipping that I hadn't noticed until the final mix, so I had to improvise with two layers that were filtered very awkwardly as you noted. I'll see what I can come up with as a fix for that. Thanks again for the review :D

"A comment!"

submission: +FACE+ "She Can't Repeat"

Sounds like a solid band you have on your hands, but it suffers from poor mixing. The drums and vocals are barely audible, and it sounds like everything but the high hat is in mono. I hear no kick drum at all. Try spreading out your guitars in the mix and keeping the vocals in the center, and turn up your kick drum! Do you have a bass? If so I can't hear it. Post some lyrics, too.

Otherwise sounds like a pretty good song. Just work on those mixing skillz ;P

well the drums are brushes... suppose to be really soft. its just me and a drummer. i do have a few different mixes with vocals. its a very basic recording. drums, one main guitar, and one with licks, and vocals. nothing fancy, suppose to be really gritty haha. thanx for your comment though, ill for sure focus on those on the next few songs.

"Automation!"

submission: Polaroid (DnB CTSG type thing)

date: September 16, 2008

Great start, especially with all the automation you're doing to the bass and the lead. I love just fooling around with 3xOsc!

But there's no bass to speak of, the drums could be worked on (too busy, actually), and it could use some pads. Still, it's a fun little piece. :)

Author's Response:

Yeah, it's pretty basic, and I coudn't lower the bass and keep it in G without it sounding like shit, that was a bass VSTi I used for the bass, and not 3xOsc, but the lead was 3xOsc. Yeah, I could mess with it some more, or maybe make a full song out of it, I dunno. Thanks for the review, Rig.

I'm afraid that any score I could give this song is negated by the fact that it contains a copyrighted sample. :|

"Gives ambient DnB a good kick in the pants"

submission: libraries of sand

date: September 4, 2008

Great tune to chill out to, man! Has enough variety to keep me interested, although I wouldn't mind hearing some different drums every now and then. Also, the sine wave melody seemed to be out of tune with some of the chords every now and then.

Otherwise, good work! Can't wait to hear more.

Oh wait, you've uploaded several songs, lol. I'll check those out.
