For me personally, mental health is intimately connected with the ability to completely abstain from everything that has got anything to do with all kinds of religion. This is what the ly...

The choir is great. How did you produce that? It's me who sings two voices. (Or should I use the word 'parts'? I'm pretty sure 'Stimmen' is the correct word in German.) Then I used Elastique to raise both voices/Stimmen an octave (ie: I sang the first two parts one more time, before raising an octa...

As often seems to be the case with a picture for inspiration people will interpret the same photo in many different ways giving a huge variation in styles this month making it very difficult to judge one against the other! Very true. In fact, as I happen to be a member of a Facebook group named ~th...

Yes, it's ironic. That whole piece of lyrics is in fact almost an experiment. I had a discussion with a friend whether I should keep the irony or write something completely different. I suggested: "How about 'All you need is love' (the Beatles) or 'I will always love you' (Parton/Houston)?"...

Ranking: 1. VCA-089 2. The Exponent 3. Arelem 4. Doc Jon 5. Havol Feedback: VCA-089: I immediately associate the aggressiveness at the beginning with "upheaval". Your song contains so many good ingredients that I can't list them all here. There is variety, in any case: not too little and ...

And please don't forget to use the provided filename template (@A Future In Noise, @Havol, @Koekepan) Hello Mister Fox, I didn't notice until now you use two different kind of underscore in your template. I doubt more than one kind of those has ever existed on Swedish keyboards, but I'll see what I...

Hi everyone, even though I thought I was done with my song already a couple of days ago, I've now made some changes. Now as of midday (Greenwich meantime +1) Friday there is a new file uploaded (among other things I have EQ'd away the lowest frequencies from the bass guitar and raised the volume ins...

Thanks, Arelem Here's some short feedback: A lot of words and phrases that point towards violence, chaos and some kind of threat and perhaps upheaval. But we only get to know that the “I-person” ignites a fight, and that he feels peaceful in turbulence and chaos. You can definitely do it this way – ...
