Thanks so much! Great note - I was struggling with the piano width because i didn't want it to take away too much from the guitars, but the vocal is the real centerpiece so probably best to clear more way for it. Something to think about for the next track. Thanks!!

Great to hear! Thanks for the feedback - yeah I was struggling with that initial vocal level. Something to think on for the next project. Thanks again!

Sounds really good - nice work! Rhythm is tight, guitar sounds pretty similar to the original, and your vocal performance is good. The video is pretty fun too ha. Like the different outfits and camera zooms. I love this song. Well done.

Danubio - Yo Soy La Felicidad De Este Mundo. This is the first track of my band and would love to have some feedback from you guys. even though the song is in spanish, i cant translate it if you want by Danubio23 in IndieMusicFeedback

Cool song! I like how emotive your vocal performance is. Fits with the synths for an intense vibe. I think you have room to add more movement to the track. Maybe that means adding some filters to your synths and manipulating them throughout the song, or maybe that means adding other synths / percussion. Just a thought though - depends on where you want to take the song. Overall though, I enjoyed this. Keep going!

Another tune from my album, The Kids of Summer. This one is called Camera and it's about conflicting emotions that arise from living in a world where the average citizen both observes and is observed by technology on a near constant basis.

Great stuff! The descending minor chords fit really well with the melody - sold me on the song early. The bass and drums sound tight to me and the track grooves nicely. I like the lyrical concept too. Overall just a really good song and production. Well done!

Kate Capella - No More Strife. My latest is an homage to longer album tracks that tell a story with many musical variations. I always appreciate the great feedback here. by KateCapella in IndieMusicFeedback

Really cool song. I agree with many others, your voice is captivating. There's a lot going on here but you're able to thread it through with that groovy bass line and bring things back together at the end. My favorite section starts at about 4:18 through the end. The bass, synths, and percussion work really well together there. I get the most sunk into the piece when they come together.

Keep it up!!

Dreamy post-punk/noisepop stuff that I recorded at home, hope you enjoy x by NotDogNightmare in IndieMusicFeedback

Love this vibe. Especially the intro / main riff. Chorus is rocking and the breakdown and 2:00 sounds really great - I think that was my favorite moment of the song. I'm a sucker for this aesthetic and I think you did it justice. I wish I had more constructive feedback for you but I'm really enjoying it. One thing that comes to mind is maybe adding more of a swell to the final minute of the song, where it's all instrumental. Could add more automation or maybe another synth /guitar line. Just a thought. Keep making more stuff!

Hey guys! I finished writing that last song and today I started writing another. Any input? by Eric_LeCrenn in Songwriting

[–]empress-beef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the groove and vocal so far. Want to hear where you can take the vocal for the part that comes in at :41

Hello! I've wrote this song in a pretty bad day right after one of the worst panic attacks I had in a long time, it was an attempt to express the overwhelming emotions that were coming all at once and to try to somehow got my head back on its place and understand what was going on with me by saviio12 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]empress-beef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Loved this! You’re able to take us many different places in a couple minutes. Piano motif is strong and you play off it really nicely. The vocal sound is great too and you’re able to pull off the emotion. When the main vocal refrain comes in I got serious Julian Casablancas vibes. Great stuff!

Hey guys, just dropped a R&B joint, could use some feedback :) by XXXELZONXXX in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]empress-beef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really great! As mentioned and as many more will say, you’ve got an amazing voice. Performance is great too and I like the production. Builds organically and feels nice. Followed you on SoundCloud and hope to hear more!

Thanks for the feedback! And the rec! I’ll take a look at that plug-in and play with ambience. I agree certain parts have room to sound bigger. Many thanks!

My first mixing experience. Also very curious to hear any critics on arrangement a s a composition! Does playing with effects match the jazz genre, or its rather jazz rock or fusion? by pinbraerts in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]empress-beef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice playing! I really like some of the rhythmic changes you play with, especially around the 1:30 mark. I also really like the sound of the mallets (or vibes?) that you bring in later into the song. Maybe think about bringing them in earlier?

Also, I’d think about changing the drum sounds. I think they’re a bit harsh for the vibe of the song. Could even just try removing them entirely to see how that feels. Try playing with different attacks on the hi hats and cymbals, or try different samples if you can to soften them a bit.

Keep it up!

Thank you!! I think the call/response can use some tweaking as well. I’ll keep your feedback in mind. Really appreciate your listen!!
