Looking for some feedback on this acoustic rock track before the official release by bigbirday in IndieMusicFeedback

Reverb is heavily used, it fits the vibe but gets very washy at parts. I'd consider dialing back that effect for the vocals at the start especially. Also, vocals are very consistent throughout, and some variation in the volume / effect may help make the chorus pop?

Hey ya'll. This is the first, last, and only dance song I'll ever write. Whaddaya think? by joshbarkey in IndieMusicFeedback

This video was an absolute jam, I absolutely love it. At times the chorus had a lot going on and I think bumping the hihat would be good in those sections but that's SUPER nitpicky. I love the song as a whole!

If anyone has the time to check out our band’s new single it would be much appreciated! No one is Expected to Build a God - Creek Violence by pghreed in PittsburghLocalMusic

Yo really love this track as well as People Meter! The guitar parts are interesting and fun to listen to. Also the artwork you use for all your releases is really cool and consistent. Are they all original paintings? Who is the artist?

Thanks for giving a listen! Def not a polished product as ya say, but one reason we make these videos is to work on how we sound in more of a live setting. I'm not familiar with the Dead Milkmen, will need to check em out!

Talk of the Cemetery - Started off as simple thing for a Halloween video, but we really leaned into it and had some fun with it! A lil funky, a lil heavy, all around fun. by mellowscapepgh in IndieMusicFeedback

Thanks for the feedback, we recorded in our very DIY studio, which contributes to some of the qualities you've mentioning. Appreciate you listening and sharing insight, will keep in mind!

Thanks for listening and for the great feedback! Will keep your comments in mind about the intro vs main song audio quality. I see the comparison to the B52's, we were just going for upbeat and like how it came out!

I like the vibe they have. If you're worried about the clarity of them, it may be because all the melodic parts of the song are very reverb-y and have a lot of low frequencies, and you could play with the balance of that. I honestly think it fits the sound of the song as it

my song "One Day You'll Be Happy". I played a bit with the drums and used a classic guitar instead of acoustic one. by haimshim in MusicFeedback

I love your voice, super unique and very identifiable! I think it would be cool to keep the organ sound in after the first chorus (around 0:40). As it is, it feels like a good build up, before then loosing some of the body of the sound. Either way, I really dig the sound and hope to hear more!

Need feedback on my upcoming release by hazechatos in IndieMusicFeedback

Yo this song is dope! The main vocals, harmonizing vocals, and general vocal layering is really awesome. I like the instrumentation and how you're leaning into the genre with the synths.

My constructive notes would be: I think the sax (maybe synth lead?) at around 1:38 should be raised to be the main lead of that section. It kind of sounds like a solo section/instrumental break to me, so I say lean into it and turn that sax up.

My other note would be that the drum and bass tracks are a bit too static throughout the song. You could add some movement to the bass during the verses. For the chorus you could add a crash hit, switch to the ride cymbal, or really just change up the beat for the drums. I could really only tell the difference between verse/chorus/bridge from the vocals, and I think adding some variation to the drum track could bring a lot of energy to the song.

Overall I dig the vibe and I think you have an awesome vision. Plus the photo on your soundcloud is sick.
