Description : A song I wrote for a school project this week, aptly named because I danced with my husky when it was finished. This is a very quick draft, and I want to expound upon some of the ideas in the future, making the song about 3 minutes longer. Would love constructive criticism, mixing tips, and thoughts in general. Enjoy.
Went ahead and made it downloadable :D
Composed and mixed in Logic and Reason, mastered in ProTools.

This is interesting, I like the way you mixed up your percussion and synth leads. Nice use of effects on your instruments. The only thing I would say, and it really is not even criticism is it sounds overly compressed, you see, I just watched a three minute youtube video on how to master a track...and now I'm an expert. That was a joke, it was 15 minutes. All in all this sounds good, I'm no expert in mixing so I could not give any tips on any magic. I usually like my drum tracks a little more boom, but you can chalk that up to personal tastes. All in all, great track.
I think you may be exactly right. I like my drums to pop as well. Thanks for the input, and I'll definitely take it into account when remixing the song.
Oh my god, this is awesome.... I would love to hear it on my ipad, but that's totally up to you. I definitely think this is awesome. And you did an amazing job on it!! Though, the only constructive critism is just that for lyrics it may not work, BUT IT ALSO MAY, there just doesn't seem to be a main tune and then a chorus, but then there does... it's a little confusing, but I am totally dancing right now. It's so happy!!! I want to dance to this. ...I'm listening as I type this... it just keeps getting more and more interesting... haha I love it!!! May I get a copy!? :] Please keep putting more and more music... you're great.

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.
Description : Feel free to check out the lyrics video on YT as well :) This is a new track based on the great vocals by Ashes and Dreams! Again, a mix of electronic/progressive/rock, any feedback is welcome
Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.
Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).
