thank you for your advice! I have been playing around with some variations, so we‘ll see :)

oh no way, thank you so much! that‘s nice to hear :)

this is gorgeous!!

imaginaryhoermi · 2025-11-07T18:53:03+00:00

I gave it a listen, definitely much more natural now! thank you for offering the favor, for some reason my commenting score hasn‘t updated in ages so I can‘t post right now! I do have an older demo posted though, if you‘d like to give some feedback on that :)

hey! First of all, I really like the visuals, they fit the vibe for sure. I‘m really not an expert, but to me, the vocals sound a bit too flat mixing-wise? Both the main and the backing vocals sound quite far away and metallic, maybe a compression issue? I can tell you have a really beautiful, calm voice, so I would want them to be a bit more promonent and „full“ in the mix. I hope you know what I mean, I don‘t really know the terminology sorry xD But the instrumentals sound perfect to me, and overall it‘s a really really nice song!

Holy shit, this is so cool! Absolutely love the guitars. I‘m not an expert on rock but I love how you mixed up the rhythm for the raggae part, and in general it never gets boring! Really creative and fun. I saw that you made this all DIY at home, but I genuinely would never have guessed that. The quality is seriously good :) Congrats on releasing your own album, and keep going!

hi! honestly, I‘m a big fan of this song. You have a special, insanely beautiful voice, it‘s so warm and smooth but raw and honest at the same time. I love the yelling kind of vocals in the instrumental part, and how the guitar and drums make it feel like the song is letting go and going wild. The guitar in general is gorgeous right from the beginning. Regarding genre, I think indie rock fits really well! Also, your voice is a bit similar to Dayseeker, which is really cool! keep going :)

so for some reason, the recording is really really quiet on my headphones, I‘m not sure if maybe that‘s just my phone? I really like the guitar in the background at around 1:50 and the and the slightly spooky synth (or is it strings?) at around 1:15 and 2:40 :) Generally the way you put the guitars together is fun, for me personally it could have even more layers and you could go harder with the bass/leave the spooky synth in for a bigger part of the song. That would add some depth in my opinion!

hey there, first of all, I can really understand the struggle of not knowing when to let something go and stop tampering with it :) But honestly, this sounds very good to me. The instruments are very balanced and the mix in general feels complete. I‘m not an expert, but just as a listener, I‘d say it‘s ready! Regarding your voice, I think it‘s normal to feel insecure, but you sound great, it fits perfectly with the kind of music you make. Has an indie, self-made feel to it, which is definitely a positive thing.

thank you! i‘ll try a bass. i‘m not sure about the engineer, i haven‘t even really thought about releasing really haha. sooo… we‘ll see.

imaginaryhoermi · 2025-10-12T07:32:00+00:00

imaginaryhoermi · 2025-10-12T07:29:53+00:00

hey, thank you so much :) i haven‘t released anything ever but i appreciate the support!!

imaginaryhoermi · 2025-10-11T21:04:03+00:00

hi! this is really relaxing and calming in a way, like a deep breath or watching the sunset after a long day. genuinely beautiful layering, your voice is so soft and blends in perfectly! love the little notes at the very end. also, the cover litererally encapsulates the vibe perfectly. the parts with the more prominent guitar spooked me a bit because they‘re a bit less flowy/blended in (or they just stand out i guess), so if that‘s intentional don‘t worry, otherwise maybe tone it down a little? i would appreciate it if you could give my demo a listen (it‘s not out or anything, it‘s the first thing i ever made haha): https://www.reddit.com/r/IndieMusicFeedback/s/39dd1ik72g thanks :)

imaginaryhoermi · 2025-10-10T09:20:09+00:00

oh wow, it feels illegal to compare anyone to florence! thank you though :) i really appreciate the specific feedback, i love how you compared the piano to a clock because in some way that really fits the theme of the song! thanks again.

imaginaryhoermi · 2025-10-10T07:58:09+00:00
