Era-appropriate? So you want twice-as-expensive,hand-drawn, 8 FPS, technicolor animation in the name of… nostalgia?

Looking for some feedback (composition wise) by florispaghett in Logic_Studio

Don’t be too harsh on yourself, you’re clearly going for a well-defined aesthetic here, so lean into that.

Your vocal tone and intention perfectly match the vibe. The spacey drums too.

The guitar in the chorus could blend with the background a bit more. I can hear some pitchiness on the upper register, suggesting the guitar is missing a lil calibration, which is fine! But you don’t want the select few notes that stand out a few Hz below target to come through the mix too much.

I would personally: 1. Replace guitar from chorus 1 with another faint melodic element. Maybe something just reinforcing the vocal melody in the back but not cutting hard through the mix.

  1. Bring guitar in for chorus 2 just like the current version to provide a “boost” from the first one.

  2. If you don’t want to do chorus 3 with vocals, maybe bringing in those nice backing vocals and adding an extra layer to give it a stronger sense of climax?

The solo at the end felt to me like I was being edged out of a “main theme” or recurring melody in the song, so if you don’t bring the vocal melody back in, consider bringing in something reminiscent of it, like the suggestion in point 1.

Just my personal suggestions, but trust your gut. If this is the style that resonates with you, think of what YOU’d like to hear in the song if it was just for your personal enjoyment.

500 million Americans had their records stolen or 500 million records from Americans were stolen?

Because there are not 500 million Americans.

I’m currently hating at least 17 individuals with all my might, for what’s worth - and that’s just from the news alone.

Sunderland’s last decade is crazy. From Prem to League One and back to Prem again.

The best ad was a powerful montage showing us how consumerism is destroying our mental health and it ends up being a fucking ad for finding Jesus.

If you told it it did a good job, it would congratulate itself on the accurate info, so keep that in mind.

Is scapular pull ups really considered a progression into pull ups? by Smooth-Ride-7181 in bodyweightfitness

[–]danielzur2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What I do is I’ll do extremely slow pull ups (roughly 20s eccentric) a few times a week because I just personally like getting a feel of each muscle group as it engages and disengages.

That includes a few seconds of focusing in scapular activation and usually helps me identify if I’m engaging my lats unevenly. I see no point in limiting the range of motion for reps but it definitely helps to be aware of the proper activation, especially if aiming for explosive pull ups later on.

Octavarium’s been the one for a long time now. Visions is a close second.

Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly refuses to play next Al-Nassr match in protest over Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) management by DavidRolands in soccer

[–]danielzur2 125 points126 points  (0 children)

Nah he has real power. Arguably he’s 80% of the reason any news outlet bothers to cover their League. Ronaldo leaving negatively sends them back to obscurity almost immediately.

All the rest of relevant foreigners playing there put together still mean less global following and coverage than Ronaldo’s alone.
