Let me know what you think! Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: EgoHanger1966 on August 28, 2012, 04:51:06 AM Sounds suspiciously like "Let My Love Open The Door"... :)
Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 28, 2012, 06:43:18 AM I suppose it sounds a little like a few songs... But Don't Worry Baby sounds lik Be My Baby and TWGMTR sounds like that cowboy song...
Just relistened to the songs, I suppose the first line of the chorus sounds a bit like one line, the verse is completly different and the bridge, intro and fade are completly different as well. I see how you could hear a connection, but "supspiciously" is kinda over doing it... Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 29, 2012, 10:25:15 AM Thanks man! Good to know, I was really scared after the last comment that the song wasn't very good, but this may get me back on track!

Good to know, I was really scared after the last comment that the song wasn't very good, but this may get me back on track! Hey - I never said it wasn't very good!! Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 29, 2012, 10:43:50 AM Nooooo it's not that, I was just scared that it sounded too similar...
Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 29, 2012, 11:55:58 AM Okay now I'm paranoid... Does it sound too similar?
Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: Amigo on August 29, 2012, 02:22:43 PM The instrumental parts sound like "Donna the Prima Donna" by Dion.
Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 29, 2012, 03:08:38 PM Oh well now I know it's okay that it sounds like it because more then one song sounds like it haha
Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: Amigo on August 29, 2012, 03:38:22 PM Oh well now I know it's okay that it sounds like it because more then one song sounds like it haha Yeah, that is quite true. But in all I liked your song! Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 30, 2012, 10:58:48 AM The song is completed, recording wise, if you'd like to be a "test listener" PM me
Title: Re: Take a Break From Love FIRST FINAL MIX Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 30, 2012, 09:03:24 PM Feedback on the mix please!

The song sounds more original (to me) as a finished thing here - I like the harmonies a lot. Nice doo woppy progression going on in the beginning. Evolves into a more 80s groove by the end. The lyrics from the "backing track" mix are really put into context with the additional lyrics in the verse etc. Nice job. Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 30, 2012, 09:20:06 PM The mix is very modern IMO, it may be my addiction to TWGMTR right now :p
And oh nice good to know! I figured it'd be that way! It strangely changes "eras" really, begins with a 60's styled verse, 70's chorus, 80's bridge, and 90's ending solo. EDIT: OMG the harmonies and production are TOTALLY BB '88 STYLED!!! I KNEW I RECOGNIZED THEM! Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 30, 2012, 09:24:39 PM The lyrics from the "backing track" mix are really put into context with the additional lyrics in the verse etc. Nice job. The song is basically about forgetting about Love, because it's way to commercial nowadays, and you sometimes don't find that person thats perfect for you. "Don't expect to find her, 'till you're high above" Title: Re: Take a Break From Love (WIP) Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on August 31, 2012, 12:50:48 PM Hey guys, I know this sounds silly, but my dad and I had random conversation today while listening to this song about where the future lies with this stuff... If I decided that it could be my future...
I know it sounds stupid at my age, but does anyone think I should talk to some kind of label? And if so, which one and why? |
