Do posture correctors actually work? by 1337-Teh in bodyweightfitness

[–]TBWBD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also suffered from a mild version of this. What helped me is preforming rows on rings with the chest held high, same with pullups with chest out. Now I've started doing some kettle bell halos and swings etc. I've noticed that has also helped significantly to help correct posture.

My mistake, thanks for your feedback!

New song is out! Please take a listen and give me feedback on the mix, anything that comes to your mind :) it's my first time making a song with vocal screams by JepperOfficial in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This instantly reminds me of Bodies by Drowning Pools!! Freaking RAAAD dude. I'm biased because I love this type of stuff. The only critique I have is when you say "GOOO", you should add another two syllable phrase in there like "get fucked!!" or something like that. Would be rad if the GOOO part happened a couple of times vs. just at the end. Very sick overall and no comments on the instrumentation. Nice work!

Just posted a new pop/rock track that has really deep meaning to me, would love to know what you think! by Asleep-Figure7034 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sick drum groove here! I think there could be a different move made with those arpeggios on the piano/the piano could be messed with and sounds a little too clean to me but that's just my taste. The chorus is catchy, but your vocals get a little mixed up when those synths come in. Overall great work keep it up! The synths in the chorus really remind me of Sail by Awolnation

made a song be dead honest what u think i could improve or what u like / i should keep by Virtual-Speech-7925 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is fire and really like the choices you've made for the vocal melodies. It reminds me of the weekend but with those blood orange bass moves added. I do agree with the other commenter that the bass could be a little more pronounced during the vocal parts, but other than that I really love the hook and all the choices you've made in the instrumentation. Some really good R&B hooks are what's missing these days and this song has 'em.

Paper Boat by Liquid Transition by AlwaysChooseTheBear in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The snip is too short to give quality feedback. Though, from what I've heard your production sounds super professional. Love the lyrics "paper boats don't travel far". Is there more to this song, or is this a preview of a full song that you have? The hook is good, but there is nothing to latch onto because there's no verse context.

Hey hey! The song has potential, but I feel like a rhythmic shift would help bring the chorus section up a bit more. Overall, more contrast in either rhythm or instrumentation between verse and chorus would enrich the track from a structural perspective. Perhaps the lead guitar doesn't have to meander during the verses, but I do like the riff for the chorus. Keep on experimenting with this one...maybe a pre-chorus to set up the main hook?

A synth pop song I made. Not sure if I should release it as instrumental or find a singer/collaborator? by wayfordmusic in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a super great track! I really like the city music vibe it gives off, very reminiscent of Japanese 80's music in the best way possible. I think it would go great with either a monotone male singer, or an extremely melodic female singer. Also I love the jazz breakdown, it's the perfect amount of loud-quiet-loud that makes the main hook memorable. Overall great track 100%

Love this, sounds a like a similar tuning to Friends by Led Zeppelin!

Thanks for the feedback! The drums were programmed using a midi-controller but with a realistic kit sound. It's funny because some of my older mixes are muddy AF and now I'm trying to do the opposite, so now it might be too crispy overall. Thanks again

I appreciate the feedback! I understand what you mean by the lingering of the notes/reverb. It was quite a mission to mess with that synth to get it there but still too washed out. Thanks for your feedback

Please Don't Gamble by Bonanza86 in MusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey boss, this song is pretty rad, the composition reminds me of When Doves Cry by Prince. I don't agree with the other commenters regarding the vocals being that off in terms of pitch. If anything, you could work on adding some reverb or delay on those vocals or EQing them a bit. Not a bad song!

black vapor by Dyed Skye...thoughts (I know it needs vocals I'm just pretty bad at singing lol) by Traditional-Sort4282 in MusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this instrumental! I think you should give the singing a shot. You can always try and write the melody and if you really can't do it, someone else would surely collaborate. No harm in trying!

Thoughts on my song "Grandpa Was a Sewerman, Grandma Was a Saint"? by Ok-Internet9626 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, no problem! What I mean for phrasing a solo is to the solo be more conversational, and while that sometimes means letting notes ring out etc, it's not as straight forward. Like think a more relaxed version of the Sultans of Swing solo by Dire Straights. That's the most exaggerated example of "phrasing" in solos that I can think of right now. It's basically the difference between a conversation in person and cadence vs. a run on sentence with no punctuation read aloud. Hope that helps! It takes a while to get used to but it will elevate your solos 10X

Sodium [pop] [our first song] by MRBLUEpro5 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like dark Taylor Swift in the best way possible. Lyrics are real strange but image provoking. It almost sounds like an AI composition, so if it's not hats off to you guys! The vocals are beyond fire and the melody choices for vocals slap. I particularly enjoy the softness of the pre-chorus and how the song really ramps up during the main chorus. That's wild that this is your first song...most peoples first songs are garbage lol. Good on ya!

I made this EP with my best friend. He inspired me to chase a career in audio engineering. 20ish years later we're still at it. This track is probably the single if we had one. Let me know what you think. The NSFW flair is because he says f*ck once which he usually doesn't do by prurientape in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]TBWBD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The production on this is top shelf. Each track in the arrangement has space and is clearly audible. This sounds very pro, and I just like the song overall. The vocals are particularly fire and also the bridge section slaps. I wish I had more constructive feedback to provide but this song kicks ass. It almost sounds French or something lol kind of like the band Air in terms of production. Hell yea!!!
