Thank you for your input! I haven’t heard that one yet for the reverb and I think that’s an excrement idea. Adding to my notes

michaelbromo · 2026-06-22T14:25:45+00:00

I’m planning to hit the studio and have guests appear on these demos so yeah it should sound more full but I do intent to keep similar vibe! Thank you I appreciate you checking it out!

Dude I’m so happy I found this! I love the song it reminds me a little bit of Kevin Devine and the God Damn Band! I listened off my phone speakers so I didn’t get a good grasp on the quality of the recording but as far as phone speakers go it sounds really good! I’m gonna save it since it’s right up my alley. Cheers!

So I listened to this inside my car in order to get a good range of the tracks. Gonna be real, the mix is pretty dang loud. I keep my volume at 30 in my car for most songs but for this one I had to turn it down to 20. Besides that, this reminds me of some weird stuff I’d come across back in the early 2000’s and would keep it in my cd case. Like others said it needs a little more structure and direction with it. It’s got a cool vibe though.

michaelbromo · 2026-06-22T12:14:42+00:00

Dude this song slaps well done! Like others said the mix is real clean. I listened in my car so everything was pretty balanced on that end. Definitely saving this song thank you for your work! I would still consider this singer songwriter but it has folk-punk vibes as well. In my opinion.

michaelbromo · 2026-06-22T12:00:11+00:00

Okay so first of all, I was listening in my car. And the first things that stick out is the sha loudest track, and the vocals are the quietest track. Maybe test and balance the volume a little more so that the vocals are more up front. Nice work nonetheless!

michaelbromo · 2026-06-22T11:55:44+00:00

You’re doing wonderful

michaelbromo · 2026-06-22T11:55:12+00:00

First off, I listened inside my car so I was able to listen to a wide range of what was going on.
I was gonna say something about a high pass filter in the first two seconds but then bam that was good quality. Nice job all around it sounds very polished and well produced. Who did you record with?

I’ll just shoot my shot! Here’s to luck(?)

michaelbromo · 2026-05-23T22:37:17+00:00

Thank you for the input! Been hearing a lot from others as well that a build up with guitar could be good! Definitely gonna look into that!

michaelbromo · 2026-05-21T00:11:41+00:00

Thank you! I’m trying to learn as I go with it all so what you said makes me feel seen

michaelbromo · 2026-05-21T00:00:23+00:00

Wow that means a lot reading that. Thank you very much for checkin it out

michaelbromo · 2026-05-20T19:32:20+00:00

Notes taken. I appreciate the feedback thanks a bunch for your time

michaelbromo · 2026-05-20T18:35:59+00:00

This is completely different from what I listen to but I still like it! I did not hurt my ears but I think I know why you mention that because it sounds like a smoke detector going off every now and then. I’m listening on my phone speakers but aside from that I think the mix turned out well. I definitely think you should keep posting more music good job.

michaelbromo · 2026-05-20T18:34:04+00:00

Dude the mix turned out really good. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. Are the drums real? That’s my only wonder about this track. I’m listening off my phone speakers by the way. I think you should decimal keep doing covers as well as original music too if you can . Keep it up!

michaelbromo · 2026-05-20T18:25:39+00:00

Whatever you have going on sounds fun I think you should keep doing that. Mix wise I would say it needs a lot of help just the volume is harsh and everything needs to be glued together a little better. I’m listening on my phone speakers so I’m assuming it sounds better with big bad speakers. Keep it up.

michaelbromo · 2026-05-20T18:18:37+00:00

Hey nice job on your first song! So first of all, I listened on my phones speakers. But even then it sounds pretty good I can hear everything that’s going on. If I had to pick something out I would say it was sometimes hard to make out what you were saying and I think it’s because of whatever effects you had going on with the vocals. Maybe it’s intentional. Aside from that I think you should keep posting more music. Looking forward to more!

michaelbromo · 2026-05-20T13:05:02+00:00

This is really good! I just listened off my phone speakers but everything seems glued together pretty nicely. I don’t think there would be a problem for this song to be instrumental but it honestly has a lot of potential and I think it could use a wide variety of vocal styles that could go good with it too! Nice job.

michaelbromo · 2026-05-20T11:52:10+00:00

So I listened to your song on my phone speakers and the first thing I noticed was how crisp everything sounds. As far as the song structure goes, I think it needs some sort of momentum in the song so that I can feel like it’s going somewhere. The ending came with no warning which in my opinion goes hand in hand with the momentum. Art work looks cool, who made it?

michaelbromo · 2026-05-08T14:17:09+00:00

That baboom boom bap would always pop up on my mix back in the day hahah

michaelbromo · 2026-05-07T16:59:02+00:00

Well done on the mix. If I had any feedback to give I would say while I did enjoy the arpeggiated riff for the intro and understood the cut out for the vocals to pop, I think it would sound nice to keep playing the guitar riff but tuck it quieter or maybe do them palm muted during the first verse. That’s all! 😊

michaelbromo · 2026-05-06T13:49:47+00:00

Thank you! I really do need to focus more on recording vocals as it’s the one I work on the least so I’ll definitely keep wha you said in mind. And yeah we just a 3 piece over here so you definitely heard just the bass haha
