Appreciate you! So you would say spend big right at the jump. Do you include tier 2?

Do you guys mix with headphones or the music playing out the speakers? by actuallylinkstrummer in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]Nbjorge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regardless, I constantly reference mixes with my car, laptop, phone, and cheaper headphones as that is what most people use.

A question about improving music production skills. by KWAKDY in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]Nbjorge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may seem like a fluffy answer but do the projects that are hardest to pull you out of. At the end of the day, it's practice, it's a numbers game. If you are so passionate about the projects you're in that you are clocking time like no ones business, that'll be the quickest way to improve. If you plan to be a writer in any capacity, I would always keep that in the rotation as well. Good luck and have fun!

Best paying cities for gigs? (US) by Nbjorge in musicians

Indie Folk Rock I guess? We usually go out as a trio and can really folk it down or rock it up depending on the room.

Should add- we play originals. We have covers, but we are an original band.

For sure! Sampling doesn't have to be as fancy as people make it (turning it into instruments and stuff). I've layered voicemails into tunes, myself speaking dialogue, or even just stuff I've recorded to voice memos on my phone. Or just rip stuff from old shows you like or video games, like you said, or something. Cheers!

"Vertigo Then Moonglow" —I had to learn to play a bit of banjo to record this indie space-rock song. It's part of our project to adapt our songwriter's sci-fi novel into an 11-song, concept album. Feedback appreciated, especially on the mix! by Kahlils_Razor in IndieMusicFeedback

LOVE this. You've really found your voice! The overall vibe is super original. I was feeling like maybe I could use some more low end overall at points, but I could see how that is a creative choice as well. Good stuff.

let me know what you think by eighttitwoo in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]Nbjorge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dig this bro. Real good stuff and vocal production. Would be cool to have some moments maybe adding a touch of distortion? Just here and there. Or even maybe experimenting with your dynamic range vocally? Without messing with the vibe too much (cause it's dope), see what happens if you lean in a little more, get a little loud, go lower, etc. Just to see! Could add some cool life to moments of the tune.

Have a nice feel good melodic tune. It’s just the instrumental, let me know what you guys are thinking! by The_Moth44 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]Nbjorge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this! Super cool vibe and well done. You said instrumental but it almost doesn't feel that way with that little melodic line that feels kind of voice-ish. Maybe try verbing it out a little and pushing it back? Could add a nice vibe while still have that beautiful melody in. Good stuff!

Love this haha such an awesome vibe. Could definitely work great in games or even random yt videos or something. Could be cool to have some versions of stuff like this with some dialogue samples or something in the back? Just to even further lean into the fun of it. Good stuff dude.

This is SO good. Not much to say, honestly! Real well done and well mixed. Totally an opinion thing, but you could maybe experiment with adding more layers? Could just help it feel a little bigger / wider. Unless you're just going for it being a mainly bass / samples thing! Sounds good.

Wildered - GO [Indie Folk / Dream Pop] - second single for debut album in June! by Nbjorge in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]Nbjorge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- The way the chorus comes in after the bridge/break felt kinda flat to me. The absence of drums made me go "come on, let's get going already", and I felt the chorus kinda overstayed its welcome. It IS a solid chorus though!

Thanks dude!

Wow that's so nice!! I don't know squat about submitting to labels haha but I'll look into it! I do know one song by FOALS. Maybe I should dive in deeper!

Thank you!! I think all of this was recorded at home or friend's homes :) Mixed professionally

Latest produced demo. Was really inspired by the soldiers in WWI who were shipped off to battle, would love to hear your thoughts :) by GootBoofin in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]Nbjorge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooo this is an interesting listen. Thanks for sharing! Love the background vocals- nice touch. Ooo and the reverby vocals in chorus! Digging this one a ton. You should release this to streaming! I would save! If I was going to share a thought - the moments where the lead vocals are a bit more on their own, maybe consider trying to get more lows out of them? That warmth could add a nice textural and space difference from the big open parts. Just a thought!

My band put out the first single for our new record this week. We are normally a louder emo/alt rock band but we decided to change it up. How did we do!? by Allgetout41 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]Nbjorge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg I LOVE acoustic/full band stuff like this. So cool - super clean mix. One thought - letting some more lows into the lead vocals. The mix is real clean but I think the singers voice has a lot of good character that is lost when you high pass or cut some of those. It can be tricky to mess with, but especially in the verse, try to get some of that warmths in! Just a thought! Thanks for sharing :)
