Hi everyone. I just added a comment to the SWC072 thread, if anyone's interested. (I don't participate this month.)
Sounds great, professional sounding mix in my opinion!
Thanks a lot pal :hug:

Re: SONGWRITING COMPETITION - SWC072 August 2023 - Winners announced

Hello everyone! I suggest that those of you who are busy composing your 2024-songs ignore this post completely. You should probably stop reading right here! But those of you who have a few minutes to spare: It's happened a few times in the last ~five years that I've been encouraged and urged to try ...

. I created two wavetables from the source material and used them in the Surge XT-synth. Could I transform this submission to a bonus track Mister Fox ? Or possibly delete this post, but I don't know how to do that. I'm working on re-writing two other songs (written 1-2 years ago) so there is no en...

Re: SONGWRITING COMPETITION - SWC076 December 2023 - results in preparation

I still think the core song is good and the only reason I went for mix adjustments as a suggestion is that I didn’t discover any obvious problem with the song itself. I feel very flattered, 1ktone. And when it comes to distinguishing between the song per se, on the one hand (chord sequence + melody...

... personaly I thought the rough edges (and more overdriven guitar) also had some character. But this is very cool to share with us the more polished version of your song. Thanks :) I'm not sure which way to go here, actually. I listened to your submission again, now that I had some spare time. It...

The song reminds me of "classic" music, like the basslines of J. S. Bach.
Thank you very much! A comparison with J.S. Bach is probably the finest praise you can receive!

Here's a (temporary) remix made by alavault , if anyone is interested. Punchier drums, eGtr is handled in a different way, e.g. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rGhGq11IKBF0nHX5CXGGUyXtilXGs70P/view?usp=sharing Because my submission was, in fact, just a demo / rough draft. And that's because it usua...

Must confess that I couldn't make out what the lyrics were trying to say, but that doesn't detract from the performance. An interesting track! Thanks! Clue: " ... in the driveway ... " is supposed to mean 'publicly'. Someone said something (loudly) in public, instead of between two pairs ...

... the articulation in the strings parts do not feel edgy enough for a rock and roll track. since you're using BBC Spitfire Audio, i suggest having a spiccato track for some of the shorter string lines for a bit more bite. In fact I did use spiccato, but only in the second verse, and only in two b...
