took more time with it...
I hear a level of Pop, which is a good thing. Just enough.
#1 I'm Fine has the scent of Shania Twain, It has a natural influential hook. I hear quite a few influences through out the whole thing. Ocean is popping really nice.
Out
I picked up on the fillers. Very nicely done. That mixdown is nice and tight. Good layering of Bkg vox with lead, I think I hear some dbling in there to. Nice panning. You worked on vox FX didn't ya?
Over-all an excellent job.
I hope you get through that tough market in TN.
Thanks again.
It's hard for me to hear these objectively, and since we've been working with them and mixing and all of that you kind of get sick of them. I think we can improve a lot - and I think we will on the next batch.
I mixed about half of these and our drummer, Travis, mixed the others. We doubled vocals in some places and not others. Yeah, we did our best on the vocal processing. Since these songs, we've gotton some new gear. Really high-end gear in some cases.
Like - I got a top of the line vocal mic with a really good preamp for it. Our guitar player, Todd, also has a mastering studio. Even though he already has the best of the best gear, he went over the last 2% that you can possibly go on some new mastering hardware. He uses all mostly all outboard gear that's basically as good as you can buy.
Like I said, there's a lot that I think we can work on to improve. We think we have better songs for the next batch . I think we will improve the recording and mixing aspects. Personally, I'm going to present songs with a little more grit to them.
Thanks for listening and for the feedback!
Brooke! That would be fantastic! We were supposed to visit Travis in Franklin toward the end of last year, but then he had to go on tour with Sugarland PLUS he's a session player and just got booked out. Hopefully soon!
