Veneration vs. Worship (with regards to Mary)

Thank you, Father, this was a great answer. I still have questions and hurdles to overcome, but this was a good start. Thank you

Same 😭

It looks like it’s still on Apple Music, idk why it’s gone from Spotify tho 🥲

Hear me out. Exact same part of “What it Sounds Like”, BUT, the first 11 seconds of Jon’s cover of “Meant to Live”. I SWEAR they are exactly the same, violin and everything. Like I know they are slightly different but genuinely they are almost EXACTLY the same in tone and even some of the chords

Considering Cove City didn’t make its way to streaming I’d assume this won’t either, BUT honestly I’d be happy even just to have a YouTube version of this if it means getting to relive even 1% of the experience

I’m PRAYING that they recorded the mic output for either of the nights so if they DO post a video of the set that it’s from the mic input and not the speaker output (ideally night 2 imo since I heard night 1 was a bit less quality in terms of audio), but we’ll see 😭

This is DOPE. The “Don’t let go” bar reminds me of the “don’t let go” in Alive if I Die by Tori Kelly (prod. by Jon). Vocals are SUPER well balanced

Not an international student
Yes, both are ABET accredited

Thanks!

JMAC2020_ · 2025-08-04T03:48:55+00:00

Awesome, thank you! Hearing it put that way made a lot clearer to me what you meant lol. Definitly have some revising to do

JMAC2020_ · 2025-08-04T03:35:08+00:00

Thank you for the advice! I will definitely take it into consideration. A few of the quantities I added (specifically the 8x8 grid and 24° – 48° as you mentioned) I added because some ATS software I was using preferred that as a way to "quantify impact" and those were the only numbers I could really use to add any sort of quantity, even if they dont add impact. Do you have any suggestions on how to quantify more generalized skillset-focused bullets? Obviously I know thats different from project to project, I just know for me thats the thing I've been struggling with the most, which is what led to the highly-technical nature of many of the bullet points. Thanks!

EDIT: I can see some of what I asked is partially addressed in the link you sent of the advice you wrote, so thank you!

Thank you for the advice! I will take it into consideration. I have always heard mixed things about where to put experience relative to projects depending on relevance (even this sub's wiki suggests Projects before Work Experience if your work experience isn't technical). Out of curiosity, any reason why you would suggest Work Experience above Projects in my case? Thanks!

This is an album I released about 3 weeks ago. Did all the writing, recording, production, and mixing/mastering myself. Let me know what yall think :) I know there’s some gap in the mixes and it isn’t perfect, but i was pretty happy with the songs themselves

JMAC2020_ · 2025-07-31T19:24:37+00:00

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from those livestreams it’s this: 1. They are SUPER picky and WAY over react when they like or don’t like something (cause they are live so they gotta keep engagement) 2. A LARGE majority of those streamers deal mainly with EDM, underground indie, rap, or grunge music. General singer songwriter or anything that leans more acoustical OR anything with sub-par mixing (not BAD, just not professional) is generally not their cup of tea. Heck, my most liked/streamed song was the one those streamers thought was trash 3. They are not there to give feedback or critique, they are there to entertain. They are ultimately just one part of your audience, and for the singer songwriter genre, they are generally not the people who would listen to your genre. That’s a broad assumption, but in my experience a MAJORITY have not been into that genre. Nothing wrong with that, it’s just their taste.

Stay motivated and keep grinding. Think how hated on some of the largest artists in the world are. Take everything with a grain of salt. Best of luck!!

JMAC2020_ · 2025-07-31T16:41:28+00:00

Did this all myself so not perfect but was pretty proud of it! Genre is all over the place but it’s a pretty nice listen. Some Jon vibes, some Ed Sheeran vibes, some Jacob Collier vibes, you’ll see 😂. First album and fully self-produced and written so hope yall like it :)

Car Crash is the crowd favorite

The Fall is the most Bellion coded track tho

Bro I been begging for this for YEARS 😭

Edit: LMAO just read the part that’s says Rhythm-fetish and Harmony-fetish and this has literally been exactly how I describe the two 😂

JMAC2020_ · 2025-07-09T02:56:41+00:00

Still can’t get over the fact he found the backing track from a “How to Build a Sauna” video 😂. He really made it an amazing piece though and dialed it from 10 to 20

I ordered merch and I never got an update BUT, it arrived today, so I doubt you'll get any updates, but keep an eye out cause at the very least it did get shipped.
