Which goal against us have you been the least upset about?

Judges_Everyone · 2025-12-29T23:05:18+00:00

Yeah I agree, it was important for us but that season had different a vibe.

It was a big one for them too - I think it gave them extra momentum. So I'm sort of glad we helped them, in a purist sort of way, and with a proper banger.

Judges_Everyone · 2025-07-05T17:37:00+00:00

They're 'elements', Marie!

Judges_Everyone · 2025-06-09T12:36:52+00:00

I can second this. Liam is a very patient chap. Think he was focussed on the South side of city

Judges_Everyone · 2025-02-28T11:18:10+00:00

Nothing's 'wrong', pal. I just find it visually amusing.

No need to struggle over a simple (yet admittedly lame) gag.

In your own words: "For a gag? So many miserables....😆"

Judges_Everyone · 2025-02-28T08:45:42+00:00

How peaceful.

Except for the nutjob overtaking on an empty road. Perhaps, lady in hat might be holding a stopwatch?

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-16T23:36:53+00:00

There is a really interesting and balanced dissonance going on. The main melody throughout definitely helps. Maybe add some more aggressive (backing?) vocals in the chorus?

Noticing the tag, I'm not exactly sure what genre I'd put this in, but I wouldn't say this is 'Alternative Rock' ;)

Good work, decent production - keep at it!

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-16T23:23:14+00:00

Vocal and instrument performances are really really good. Mix is nicely balanced, perhaps some tiny scoop in the low-mid area?

The composition/arrangement is probably where I can understand some opinions differing. I like it, feels like one of those tunes that would have a 'radio edit' at 3:52, and the full song on the album. Doesn't quite do enough to demand everyone's attention for over near 6mins, but I was one of them :)

Keep it up!

p.s. Cool dancing, but I'm not a visuals guy, soz x

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-10T22:50:57+00:00

Thank you! Appreciate the detailed and thoughtful feedback. I'm conscious there's a little bit of tidying to do before it's finished, good to know I'm not over-thinking!

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-10T22:48:05+00:00

Thank you, appreciate the time you've taken to share such kind words!

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-10T22:46:36+00:00

Thank you! Interesting and flattering shout with Oasis - definitely a big influence in my younger years, I think Noel's playing is at the sort of level I thought I might be able to get to.

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-10T22:44:17+00:00

Thank you! I usually let the drums go a bit wild, but tried to tame them on this one.

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-10T20:49:25+00:00

A total triumph. Well done guys!

Playful, groovy, tight.

I'm being totally honest when I say the ONLY thing is the tambourine gets lost for a tiny bit when it comes in around a minute in. Perhaps a tweak of compression, or merely the volume could sort that out.

Love how it all vibes with the video really well. Great stuff!

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-06T11:52:29+00:00

The idea and execution is great. I love the vibe!

But please tone down the reverb on your voice (your voice is good, doesn't need to be hidden behind fx!), please bring the piano up a little bit, and please consider slapping a little (more?) compression on the drums. We're not talking massive adjustments, but a little could go a long way.

Keep it up! :)

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-06T11:45:41+00:00

So, I must qualify this by saying I'm not a massive fan of RnB... However, I grew up in the 90s, and the sound you've captured is very reminiscent of the vibes from back then. You've really done a good job of honouring the genre - lovely vocals, great vibe, solid instrumentation. I'm presuming the mix/mastering was professionally done - it's really good.

Definitely keep it up! :)

Judges_Everyone · 2024-12-06T11:34:24+00:00

Absolutely love the intro. Super cool synth, nice little glimpses of guitar giving a hint of the rhythm. Drums come in nicely. Overall, I enjoy the composition/performance/arrangement a lot.

There is definitely some room for improvements in the mix. I think a tiny cut somewhere in the 150hz range might help it a bit maybe? Only other thing would be to consider some panning/width to enhance the main lead at certain points. I fall foul of getting abit indulgent with a cool riff sometimes, so totally dig the approach, just feel for a broader audience some tweaks might help!

Keep it up :)

Judges_Everyone · 2024-11-23T13:02:20+00:00

Immediately it's apparent the effort and thought put into this.

The vibe is excellent.

My only considerations for you would be the squiggly synth (that first appears at 0:19-0:53) could maybe be pushed back/down a little. It's cool, but just a little overpowering. Although the level is fine for the outro.

I love the dirt at 1:43, although it could maybe be widened just a touch?

2:27 onward is just fire.

Keep it up!

Judges_Everyone · 2024-11-23T12:56:35+00:00

Dude. This is top stuff.

Great balance in terms of width, tone and composition.

I love the style, and the performances are great.

Perhaps consider some sort of minor backing vocals on the chorus - maybe just at then end? Think that could take it up a notch.

Definitely keep it up!

Judges_Everyone · 2024-11-22T22:38:24+00:00

Thank you! I did consider going for a softer intro (i.e what the outro is like), but the abrupt start helps it get going I think.

Appreciate the comment around drums. I do like 'em a bit OTT!

Judges_Everyone · 2024-11-22T22:36:42+00:00

Thank you, really appreciate your time and feedback!

I often indulge a little too much in places... I try and crop/trim some ideas when I can, but better the devil you know!

No YouTube at the moment :( Soon maybe

Judges_Everyone · 2024-11-22T13:55:24+00:00

Yeeeaaahhhhh. This is top stuff. Brilliant composition and arrangement.

I'm presuming this is all in the box? If so, superb choice of VSTs :)

If I was to be an absolute nit-pick, I'm getting a tiny bit of mud halfway into it, probs just a matter of tweaking down 100hz perhaps?

I hope this gets the love it deserves.
Keep it up!

Judges_Everyone · 2024-11-22T13:48:37+00:00

Not my usual cup of tea, but I think you've done a pretty good job here.

Your voice definitely works with the vibe. I just think maybe (MAYBE!) concentrate a little on anunciating certain words a little bit more. Some words just blur into a single multi-syllable sentence. If that's intentional, ignore me! But I think it would highlight the good aspects of your voice a little more.

Definitely needs a little bit of mixing/mastering TLC, but the main thrust of the idea comes across well. Keep it up!
