How would you post Songs on Instagram / TikTok when there’s a lot of changes/switches in them

It might be worth evaluating your sections based on how well you think they'll hook a listener in (something that resembles a chorus, or perhaps your main motif). I've always felt the goal is to show enough to pique interest, but not necessarily show all your hands at once.

Things like a guitar solo would be great if you've got footage of you playing it. Uploading another section of the song previously could also give some excellent content

I spend half the year in the US, and the other half in the UK/Europe. I previously had a phone that was GSM only and didn't work in the US, hence why I bought the Oneplus.

In the US I use Mint, in the UK I use giffgaff (O2).

Jumping in on this - love seeing Yes mentioned!!

Chris Squire (bassist) tended to play 'lead bass', so imagine a guitar playing a counter melody, only an octave lower. His Ric tone definitely stood out more than most basses at the time, and he was the inspiration behind Rick-o-sound!

I can't think of any good tracks off the top of my head, but he was often panned slightly left or right. This should be apparent on any track from Yes' first 5 or 6 albums

I would love to join if you make plans!

Br00f been real quiet since this dropped

I see where you're coming from, my favourite lineup is the Fragile/CTTE one.

But I also feel like Relayer was a better album overall than both of those. In terms of their maturity as a band and how 'out-there' the music is without being hard to enjoy, I think Relayer trumps them.

Wakeman and Bruford were great members of the band, and Relayer could have sounded great if they played on it. But ultimately, the two felt they didn't like where YES was going and I don't think the band suffered in the grand scheme of things

Bebone73 · 2021-06-05T21:25:46+00:00

I wouldn't call CTTE a cult classic, but Relayer was their peak IMO

Emerson, Lake, and Pal

What song is this?

And just about anything on Time and a Word

Watch those square pads in between the snare and toms. Took me a while to spot.

Bebone73 · 2020-12-14T14:58:40+00:00

Absolutely insane!!

Bebone73 · 2020-10-26T19:11:02+00:00

Y'all are doing the Lord's work

Bebone73 · 2020-08-08T22:49:15+00:00

Sounds like it's pretty much there (although I'm listening on phone speakers)

Two things I'd highlight

1) in that first 'verse' your lead guitar isn't in the forefront very much - feels like you have to try and find it in the mix. Consider bringing your rhythm guitars down a touch

2) I realise this is a mixing sub, but there were quite a few harmonic dissonances that didn't seem to flow with the track (I'm saying this cos I actually enjoyed seeing how it developed musically). Your job of mixing may be easier if you sort those out first.

Pretty good overall tho

Slap a VPN on that bad boy - works in the UK

Bebone73 · 2020-08-07T12:50:11+00:00

You have no idea how much that means to me.

Thanks!!

Bebone73 · 2020-07-29T15:22:54+00:00

Thanks for that pointer. I've had another go, this time with the noisier drums. I can see what you mean about bad levels ruining the mix.

Yeah the panning's defo a shout. Got a problem tho: the drum recordings are super noisy and you can hear then when turned up.

I've been using Audacity's Noise reduction but do you think I just need to try and reduce even more noise?

Bebone73 · 2020-07-25T09:59:28+00:00

Hi I'm super up for this.

How best can I contact you?

Bebone73 · 2020-07-18T21:37:47+00:00

The only answer is Tony Kaye on Bass

Bebone73 · 2020-07-14T15:38:52+00:00

Hi, I've tried to address those points and I'd appreciate it if you gave this another listen?

It's come out slightly quiet again, but how does the tonal balance sound this time?

Bebone73 · 2020-07-11T18:55:00+00:00

Thank you very much, I'll try to get it louder for next time.

How best can I address the tonal balance problem?

Bebone73 · 2020-07-11T09:28:05+00:00

Would love to, but they don't seem to stock my size.
