If you have time take a listen and give Seelengold some feedback.
Gave it another listen:
- love the guitar and clap
- the vocal untl 0:36 is partially offbeat and that's perfect and very cool
- then in 0:37 I first felt it went into a different tempo but I think you skipped or inserted a beat
- then at 0:44 there's a sudden change, especially in loudness, but here it really goes into a lower tempo
- the change at 1:24 I liked, and again back to the original tempo/rhythm
- Then at 2:00 and 2:07 something similar happens as above which I don't fully understand with my tiny brain.
I suspect all of this might be fine, but it would help me if the transitions are either more gradual, or possibly "announced" in advance, so I understand what's going on.
Or not, and that's also fine, I'm just trying to explain what I heard and meant :) Oh and btw lovely clear production!
Have a fantastic day!
you have correctly addressed all places where every ear involuntarily pays attention.
But it is at no place an oversight, but was actually made by me with declared intention so. One can argue about that, of course, but in the end it is a matter of taste. You like it or you don't.
"Or not, and that's also fine, I'm just trying to explain what I heard and meant :)"
Thanks for your two comments and the related time you gave me/the song.
I'm quite glad that the track was not judged as a technical renovation case. Because as I said, about taste you can argue, about possibly glaring technical deficiencies not.
It doesn't have an intuitively instantaneous context of meaning, I quite agree with that. After rather yes restrained vocals one does not expect so necessarily with quite abruptly and quite impetuously beginning strong instrumental contrariness. But that's intentional, because otherwise the song would probably have quickly taken on an exclusively sentimental character, which I wanted to avoid.
"but it has enough consistency", thank you!
Because also from my point of view this is given. In contrast to the usually common intact consistency of a track, however, I would name the term "Broken consistency" here and consider it a perfectly permissible technique, as a fully suitable stylistic device.
Hallo,
zunaechst mal moechte ich sagen, dass Evguenia (Ratsouk) eine wunderbare junge Kuenstlerin ist. Ich habe auch schon einige Projekte mit ihr machen duerfen.
Zu deinem Song, ich hoere keine stoerenden Geraeusche, die von einem Effektgeraet kommen koennten. Allerdings, das sieht man auch an der Grafik deines Songs, sieht man einige harte Ausschlaege beim Einsetzen des Gesangs. Das drueckt gleichzeitig alle anderen Instrumente nach unten. Das koente von einer Falscheinstellung des Compressors kommen.
Aber es ist schwierig bei mp3 kodierten Material eindeutige Aussagen zu treffen.
Hier mein Text nochmal in deutsch, weil die Uebersetzung nicht das sagt, was ich ausdruecken moechte.
Hallo,
Nun ja, sehr eigenwillig, nicht gerade das, was ich als harmonisches Lied bezeichnen wuerde. Aber ich denke nicht, dass es auch eins sein sollte. Ich habe eher das Gefuehl, zwischen 2 verschiedenen Fahrgeschaeften auf einem Rummelplatz zu stehen. Obwohl alles als eigenstaendiger musikalischer Ausdruck und Praegung wahrgenommen werden kann, fuegt es sich nicht zusammen. Nun, solche Experimente sind nicht meine
Welt. Aber das muss es ja auch nicht sein.
Grüße Manuela
da freue ich mich jetzt aber tatsaechlich so richtig.
Dein Jahrmarkt-Bild mit den zwei Fahrgeschaeften und Du mitten dazwischen trifft es auf den Punkt. Es ist in der Tat sehr gegensaetzlich, was aber auch erklaerte Absicht war.
Ich wollte zu Ratsouks ja eher verhaltener und sensibler Stimme einen Kontrapunkt setzen, damit das Lied nicht Gefahr laeuft, in Seichtheit zu versanden. Insofern sind auch einzelne Uebergaenge bewusst “hart” (kontrast-stark) gewaehlt, um der Gegensaetzlichkeit einen deutlichen Ausdruck zu geben.
Es stimmt; es ist eine Geschmacksfrage, natuerlich. Ich selber – und das ist bei eigenen Werken bei mir normalerweise nicht der Fall – bin in diesem Fall ambivalent. Einerseits gefaellt es mir, andererseits ist ein Stoergeraeusch da... Mal sehen, ob ich das noch irgendwie fuer mich in einen Ausgleich bekomme.
Bei BaoBous Kommentar war/ist mir nicht so richtig klar geworden, ob seine diplomatische Betrachtung nun eher technischer oder geschmacklicher Natur war; deshalb meine Nachfrage an ihn.
Mir ist diese technische Betrachtung sehr wichtig, zumal ich auch das allererste Mal einen Kompressor bei der Bearbeitung eingesetzt habe. Und natuerlich kann ich auf mich alleingestellt nicht halbwegs zuverlaessig einschaetzen, auf welchem technischen Niveau ich mich mit meinem Lied denn so befinde.
Ich waere also auch an Deiner technischen Beurteilung interessiert.
Hello,
well, very idiosyncratic, not exactly what I would call a harmonious song. But I don't think it should be.
I rather have the feeling of standing on a fairground between 2 different rides. Although everything can be perceived as an independent musical expression and imprint, but it does not come together. Well, such experiments are not mine
World. But it doesn't have to be.
Greetings Manuela
I know about a certain weakness, but I only noticed it myself very late and a repair was no longer possible with reasonable effort, so I was faced with the question: delete or accept this weakness? I then consciously decided to accept it, since I had already invested a lot of time.
Will you tell me - without diplomatic consideration, which I really don't want at all - what technical weaknesses you see? Without a concrete hint, I can't think about it, but I would like to. One doesn't like to repeat mistakes or to improve oneself.
Many greetings

Description : Hey guys! Something different this time. I pulled from my teenage angst for this. As well as listening to a lot of indie artists, Ryan caraveo being my favorite. Let me know what you guys think! I know this one isn't going to be too popular but hope you guys like it! I feel like it might be a little bass heavy but tell me what you guys think!
Description : To me this sounds like a late night jam when everyone in the band but the drummer is half toasted and things could fall apart any second. Funnily enough that's pretty much what it is only I'm the band. One take on guitars vocals and bass, minimal edits. Could be a complete mess could be not. Either way happy if you let me know.
Description : This track is a collaboration with another Looperman member, Salve Clements, a very talented vocalist from Australia. Salve wrote the lyrics and composed and recorded the vocal melody and lyrics.
In working on the mix, I simply wasn’t able to achieve a proper balance in the overall sound. So, I got some help from Wytse Gerichhausen of White Sea Studio in the Netherlands. He was able to fix the problems I had created and got it sounding the way I had hoped it would.
Description : sticking with Cyberflares, hope this is a surprise Robin, as an artist i believe certain tracks are made for you and this is one off them
his track Smacking Hard he posted as rap,
bro this was so more powerful than rap, this smacks hard :))
Description : You need some emotions? Then you are just right here! I am not sure what kind of feelings you will get but i am sure you will get some intense ones. -- Older track that some how got lost in the looperversum. But here it is again --
Description : In 2017 my little cousin took his own life. My entire family blamed themselves for it. Never questioning what he was going through or what he may have been feeling. For a long time, I wanted to create a song where I put myself in the shoes of someone hurting. This song has a long way to go before it's finished. I wanted to share what I have thus far in hopes it inspires me to finish it.
Description : Now out as part of an EP on Spotify, iTunes and all the other ones. Thanks for all your encouragement, it means the world to me!
==========================
This particular poem consists of two 1000 year old Japanese "renga", short "word flowers" about the autumn rains. They inspired me... and I hope you will like them too.
Description : found a couple loops by bradosanz and made an indie rock track. let me know what you think in the comments, especially ways i could improve it or if you like it. thanks!
Description : I tried an indie rock / songwriter etc. track, trying new genres.
Haven't posted in a while but just wanted to hear feedback here!
It's also out of Spotify and YouTube and Apple Music and Soundcloud for anyone who wants to listen.
Description : Made this a few months back but just added some vocals - well a few different ones : )
Like the sound but as track it still lacks a bit of structure

stoerende Geraeusche hoert man tatsaechlich nicht.
Es war auch nicht akustisch gmeint, sondern als Empfindung.
Vielen Dank fuer Deine Hinweise.
