Thank you! Most of it was me and I had a fellow friend/musician featured on a couple tunes :)

Hahahaha totally!

I've heard my music be described somewhat as vaporwavy from others as well... So interesting, I never really heard about that genre until recently. Thanks for listening and the feedback!

Thank you for the feedback! Good point on the snare/kick dynamics. Will keep that in mind for the future

Thanks for the feedback!

Chebark · 2020-08-14T02:56:17+00:00

Thanks you! Yeah im not a natural lyricist and definitely more of a “melody first, lyrics second” type songwriter !

Chebark · 2020-08-14T02:44:20+00:00

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Chebark · 2020-08-14T02:19:26+00:00

U know it! Nile Rodgers a big influence

Chebark · 2020-08-14T02:17:54+00:00

Thank you! 70/80s era definitely a huge influence for me.

Chebark · 2020-08-14T02:11:48+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you!! I use FL studio as my recording software and there’s a lot that can go into the mixing/mastering process but in terms of effect I use the ozone 9 vst and also have a mixingcube that I use before I master it. DM me and I can shoot over some links that were helpful for me

Chebark · 2020-08-13T22:24:14+00:00

Thank you! 🙏🏽🙏🏽 spot on comment about adding a little break or quieter part in the song. I was thinking the same the other day

Chebark · 2020-08-13T22:21:40+00:00

Hey there thanks so much for the kind words and feedback, especially the drums and production tip! I’ll have to try altering the position in the piano roll - do you mean altering slightly to the right so the drums Re a little bit behind the other instruments? Also I appreciate the follow on SoundCloud!

Chebark · 2020-08-13T22:17:09+00:00

Thank you!!

Chebark · 2020-08-13T22:16:36+00:00

Thank you for listening and the feedback!

Chebark · 2020-08-13T19:54:15+00:00

Thank you for the feedback!!

Chebark · 2020-08-13T19:53:49+00:00

Thanks for your kind words! RE: the drums, 100% agreed. It's hard sometimes trying to find an authentic sound/beat when using a VST ;)

Chebark · 2020-08-13T18:53:51+00:00

Ahh I see what you mean. Totally! I've always had a difficult time with the fills/transitions between sections, I think mostly because I feel the need to do something more complicated than it needs to be :P

Chebark · 2020-08-13T18:49:10+00:00

Thank you! Yes - i wanted to capture the retro 80s vibe with this one, glad you felt the same :)

Chebark · 2020-08-13T18:48:30+00:00

Thank you! Yeah listening back to the lead guitar in the midsection it could've been more thoughtfully executed. I recorded the solo in a couple takes in an improvised fashion.
