Title: Mike LeRoy Presents: Bridge Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on December 22, 2015, 09:59:04 PM Hey all! It's been a LONG time. After my last album, I was really considering stopping making music. I didn't feel like I was having enough of an effect on people so... I stopped and reconsidered.
It's hard to convince yourself to make music for yourself but in a lot of ways I needed to make this album, and you'll hear why. Bridge (https://f1.bcbits.com/img/a2096631071_16.jpg) Simply, this is a simple album that I really like to put like this: It's easy to digest, but says a lot about the guy who made it all. Anyways, enough talk, I'm getting this out there a few days early so you guys can possibly listen before the holiday... enjoy! https://mikeleroy.bandcamp.com/album/bridge Feedback is very important to me. If you post a nice little "feel" about this album, maybe I'll send out a key so you can download a nice lossless copy? Eh? Thanks guys. Title: Re: Mike LeRoy Presents: Bridge Post by: Empire Of Love on December 23, 2015, 11:14:23 PM Nice consistent sound/style throughout. I believe my favorites are:
Maybe (Don't Do It Baby) Yesterday But I must admit I've not spent a lot of time with it and my attention was divided. It seems you are using your voice in a way that better plays to your strengths. Whether that was deliberate or just due to the material I don't know. Regardless, another good effort Mike. I do have a question for you. What is your ultimate goal in writing and recording? To make money? Hit records? Pick up girls? Self-satisfaction? I think your answer to that question should go a long way in deciding whether you want to work with a collaborator, whether to sharpen up the song writing or assist in vocals and taking some of the instrumental load, etc. Just a thought.

I think my reasons for recording are to push myself to new heights and to show others what I can do. I really feel like it's more about writing good songs that people will like than money or anything like that. Ex. If I could give away a song for free the people would love to sing, I'd be more than happy. Thanks again! -Mike Title: Re: Mike LeRoy Presents: Bridge Post by: orange22 on December 26, 2015, 12:45:39 AM Wow, decent effort on this mike. I didn't listen to everything, but the overall aesthetic is very nice and your vocals are great. What mic do you use?
Did you intend this as a complete piece when you wrote the songs, or is it more of just a collection? Title: Re: Mike LeRoy Presents: Bridge Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on December 28, 2015, 07:30:42 AM Thanks man. It's a bit more disjointed than past work from me but the heart of it all is really in the same place. I'm using an MXL 770. Love it.
Thanks for listening, hopefully you can get a full listen in too! Title: Re: Mike LeRoy Presents: Bridge Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on May 27, 2016, 06:35:56 PM Hey guys, I'm at a bit of a crossroads with music making and I'm moving on to my next album, just wanted to see if anyone else could give me some feedback? Sorry for the bump! Thanks guys! I really value the feedback!
Title: Re: Mike LeRoy Presents: Bridge Post by: feelsflow on June 18, 2016, 10:43:14 AM I was listening to some of your music just this morning. Played "Music Box" "Love Me, Baby" and "Gone Away" - all very promising. -Will
Title: Re: Mike LeRoy Presents: Bridge Post by: feelsflow on June 18, 2016, 10:58:05 AM I was listening to those on your SoundCloud, which I have bookmarked. I listened to this album when you first posted. I don't have enough time in the day to comment on everything I hear.
But. A quick review. "Maybe" "Please" "See the Future" and "Friends" are my favorites. Listened to your earlier tracks as well. You are doing just fine. You're only 18. Keep it Up. -Will |
