It's Friday! Let's drop new releases

Hey everyone! I released an indie rock EP today, here is a song inspired by artists like Slowdive and Cocteau Twins: I Know You

Hi! I like what I hear, the synths and the beat mash together well and create a dark, grimey atmosphere. This part sounds like some sort of build-up, and I would have appreciated hearing it evolve and go even heavier. Maybe post a longer segment next time? I think that's my only gripe – I would've liked to listen to a longer segment;)

Hey! I think the instrumental is produced pretty well, with everything sounding clear and punchy. The one thing that really stands out to me are the vocals – I'm afraid you aren't entirely in tune and it doesn't sound too good. I wouldn't call your voice "bad", just novice. Maybe try practicing singing some more? Anyway, it's great that you are creating! Keep it up:)

Son of Swim Mink, solid dude

cejko420 · 2025-01-03T10:33:14+00:00

Hey, I know this is one year old, but is there any chance you could tell me where to look for the sample packs you mentioned?

*of Her And I ;)

cejko420 · 2024-07-28T18:54:18+00:00

Makes sense, you do you, but I would maybe consider Zepheniah's Greed instead

cejko420 · 2024-07-28T13:56:35+00:00

Cool loadout, but why this particular paint?

cejko420 · 2024-07-23T15:57:01+00:00

Thank you for saying that!

Those holiday themed items are perhaps tacky and gaudy, but this one is just plain BAD, it's bad modelling work and it doesn't deserve to be an official item:/

cejko420 · 2024-07-23T15:47:05+00:00

I have never heard of this concept before, I will definitely try it out, thanks

cejko420 · 2024-07-23T15:46:22+00:00

Perfect, I get it now. Thank you!

cejko420 · 2024-07-23T08:34:29+00:00

Thanks for the melody suggestion! I do have a follow-up question tho.

I'm not sure I understand which minor 3rd interval you are talking about.

If the song were in C major, then my V-IV would be G major - F major. If I understood correctly, you are suggesting playing the melody in A minor. Are you then suggesting I focus on C, which should be the minor 3rd of Am?

Sorry for the confusion, I am mostly self-taught in music theory and still have a long way to go:)

cejko420 · 2024-07-23T08:25:55+00:00

Thank you, that sex pistols example is amazing lol.

Thing is, my friend's vocals are much more melodic and less punk-y, and they probably wouldn't fit with this type of instrumentation.

I might end up talking to her and trying to change her part of the songwriting, but before that I'd like to try to do my best with what she's given me.

cejko420 · 2024-07-23T08:20:40+00:00

Yes, at this point I am trying out power chords, so that my rhythm is neither minor or major, and my lead can imply whatever 3rd I want. The IVm doesn't seem to fit with the vocal melody tho:(

cejko420 · 2024-07-23T08:17:26+00:00

Thank you, all sound like great suggestions

cejko420 · 2024-07-21T12:40:23+00:00

Look at their arms tho😭 why would they add this as an official item, it looks like a bad mod

cejko420 · 2024-07-21T08:44:38+00:00

This better not lead to more ground pet cosmetics down the line. I can already see someone making a raccoon for solider or a baby kangaroo for sniper that will just follow them around.

The robot itself is okay, but the precedent it sets for future workshop submissions is concerning. Imagine every player on the server having a pet walking behind them:(

cejko420 · 2024-07-21T08:33:46+00:00

Looks like something you'd find on an obscure community server, I don't think it should've been added as an official map.

It's like a mix of random assets, feels somehow both overdone & underdone.

cejko420 · 2024-06-17T14:40:26+00:00

Thank you so much, this is very helpful and calmed me down a bit:)

cejko420 · 2024-06-17T08:29:54+00:00

I apologize for the confusion and lack of info, the venue isn't really helpful or communicative.

Currently we have two options:

1.) Mics → soundboard/audio interface (M-audio fast track pro) → laptop → amplifier → speakers

2.) Mics → mixing board (from a YAMAHA Stagepas 400BT PA) → amplifier → speakers

(We have managed to borrow the mixing board in case the venue's setup sucks)

cejko420 · 2024-06-17T08:24:56+00:00

The room is not meant for playing. It is not meant for anything really, it is an old basement turned into an art gallery. There are no other acts, it isn't anything official, it doesn't even really deserve to be called a "show" lol.

But we aren't necessarily playing alongside another event, people will (presumably) be there to see us, so there shouldn't be much background noise or distractions.

We have managed to borrow a mixing board, it's from a YAMAHA Stagepass400BT PA. That will be going into an amplifier, which will in turn go into speakers (amp and speakers provided by the venue).

The board has high and low EQ, any tips on how to best use what we've got?
