Title: New Songs - Gonna Do It Right and Something New
Post by: Chocolate Shake Man on May 26, 2016, 10:55:49 AM
I'm a novice to Soundcloud so forgive me if I am screwing this all up or if nothing comes up. But here are a few new songs. Please let me know your thoughts when you get a chance:

The first song is pretty funky, but a vocalist should have been hired for it.

I hear ya. I've always felt I'm in the Ronnie Lane/John Squire school but even they did their own albums despite the croaky vocals. I guess you can consider it a niche recording based on the voice alone!

I think Gonna Do it Right is very catchy.

Thanks very much! I'm glad you like it. I was a big fan of your "Yellow Fields."

Oh nice feel on Gonna Do It Right! I like the mix and arrangement. The guitars are great, and that tambo right up front.
On the vox I would suggest bringing the volume down a touch and maybe a little more reverb perhaps?

Yes, I always feel that the vocal is a bit too loud when I hear it too. Thanks very much for the comments.

Thanks for letting me know. I made some changes to the file and I must have accidentally changed the url. Here's the new url:

I changed it in the first post as well.
