You've done it again collapse! This one is awesome! I feel like the vocals could be just a little bit more up front, but that's merely a matter of taste. All in all, you've got a great mix, great sound and great song. So, when's the CD going to be available?

Dark, ominous; I like it, I really like it! I'll seek help.

Use of stereo field very good. Blend of "voices" both human and instrument very good. Construction, nice build and stays interesting. Content; Cohesive message throughout.

Want to hear:

Something screaming in the long instrumental breaks, not in the begining build. Something at least with the intensity of the vocals. A "key" phrase or "signature" theme riff to ignight the mood.

Would have loved to have that tune last summer on the bike as we pulled into a small northern Michigan college town midnight or so. Would have definately heightened the experience!

That is a cool tune!

It has a Rob Zombie vibe to it. and I like how it drives!

I'd try a little more compression on the vocals (but that is just a matter of taste) The vocals are done well, can you could bring them up just a tad?... not too much...but just a tad.

I'm imaging seeing this tune as a visual in the new Matrix film... COOL!

other than that great work! I love that retro-trance-rock-metal-industrial thing you have here!!!

Great Work

thanks for the feedback guys. =) i went back and raised the vocals just a lil bit (as requested by a couple of people) and it seemed to help.

OMG you sound like M.Manson! The vocals are perfect. You're getting better and better all the time. Are you getting any play in local clubs? Not sure how much of an industrial scene there is in your town.

Dude this track is wicked. Did you start in Fruity and then take it to Acid for guitars and vox?

"looking for an answer and I won't take "no" today", i love it

not getting any club play here. unfortunately, my music and a friend of mines equal THE industrial scene in memphis. our options are to export our music to other cities.

i laid the drums and the synthbass down in fruity.. export it all sound by sound into acid.. and then laid a few more synth parts down in acid.. then record the vocals and guitar straight into acid.

you were pretty much dead on, on how i do it =)

some of those native Fruity synths and preset drums sounds are destinctly Fruity. If you're in need of drum sounds, maybe we could work out a trade of some kind?

oddly enough, i dont use any presets from fruity. i pull all my stuff from drum sample discs and tweak them.

im game for getting new sounds though.=) drop me an email.

Sorry I didnt get a chance to post earlier collapse. Just listened to the track and Jamie is right, that is one wicked track. You are definately getting better as you go. I am not sure if I got the version with the raised vocals though, I think I DLd it a while ago when you first posted. Did you post the fixed track at the same link, if so I will go get it and give another listen. I guess I did notice the voc a bit low in especially in the beggining. Again very kick @$$ tracks dude.

Peace

thanks again for the time to listen and give feedback. i finally feel like i have a firm direction to move in and that makes a world of difference in writing.
