Thank you…most of the stuff I record I’ve already written and performed…this I came up with the bass riff on wednesday, lyrics on thursday, and the guitar parts when I sat down to record…I wanted the guitars to be a little crunchier and used this great pedal called the angry fuzz…LOL

Hell yesssss! Very nicely done sir- I found myself smiling throughout the whole thing. What technology did the vocals come from? Was it one one those midi vocal plugins? Sounded really cool and definitely fit the song style. I love the dark undertones that the synth can bring. Thanks for posting- inspires me to keep going in that retro direction!

Thanks!

The voice is a vocaloid, a type of singing synthesizer pioneered by Yamaha (whose product, Vocaloid 5, is most famous for use as the voice behind the hologram Hatsune Miku.)

I used this one:

Like it so far!

I really like the hook/verse on this one. Hmm feels like it might need a little mixing work though - bass feels a little light. Otherwise killer :slight_smile:

Maybe not though - I am listening through monitors right now though so it will sound less bassy to me than normal listeners.

you know I felt the same way but recorded the bass twice I even pumped up th mids to try and get it to cut a little more through the mix, tried different positioning in the mix, pulled back everything and ran it it into the red…one of those where it just needed to be louder when I recorded because I like the tone I was getting.

Thanks Brian, this one is one of those songs that sounds great in the middle of second set after the beers have been flowing when all I have to do is sit with the tele across my legs and play…and hope that I’m sober enough to not try and use a shot glass or beer bottle for the slide, that never ends well for me…LOL

I really like your bluesy style😎
@Tokyo_Rat, great mix, I agree with @howard that the bass seemed a little light on, but the whole mix was guitar driven anyways, and that was really good :sunglasses:
Cheers Brian

Thanks I thought after working and working with it I had gotten the bass to pop out a little more but I guess not. I just finished the drums, bass, and rhythm guitar on another song this afternoon…I’ll come in tomorrow morning and do the lead breaks and a vocal and try my hand at a mix…we’ll see what happens. The forecast is bendy strings and a scratchy vocal…LOL

Love this! Very ominous throughout. Also love the long sustaining notes in some of those quiet places. I can enjoy the instrumental stuff of this genre, but I usually have trouble with the screaming vocals that often accompany it, haha!
