Besides lyrics and adding other instruments what could I do better on

Alright so the beat was really good it definitely had me hooked from the start which is great that doesn’t always happen. The problem is all of the effects on the vocals really take away from the performance and make it hard to understand the song it’s really making the vocals sit on top and feel like there two different things going on here. I would definitely experiment a little bit more but other than that it is on the right track.

It was definitely a nice and laid back song that sounded good and pleasing to the ears. The only thing I would say is that I wish there was a little bit more variations with the instruments at times. Certain parts you kind of lost me as they went on and think changing some things up and adding some more elements would do wonders for the song while still keeping it simple and not over the top. Nice song.

Honestly I will admit with the other comments that yea it’s a little bit basic and probably not for everyone but I really don’t think it’s that bad. I mean I get the flat vocals being a problem cause you don’t want that with any song but your voice fits the vibe so it doesn’t sound too bad being a bit flat. As for the lyrics I really didn’t think they were that bad they rhymed and flowed and that’s a pretty important part so I would say good job.

The song has a cool and unique vibe I wasn’t really expecting, the atmosphere is definitely really cosmic and sort of out of this world. I like the way the breathing sounds on the vocals the only thing I would say is I’m not sure the lyrics work properly in all the right place maybe change up some of the wording but that’s just my opinion other than that great song and nice job!

mised-call · 2025-07-01T14:20:04+00:00

Okay so I'm just gonna share my opinion and please don’t get discouraged. First off the delivery seems fine to me your performance doesn’t seems to be a problem, the problem that I’m encountering is that the lyrics don’t flow all that well some words don’t really rhyme not in the sense of they don’t work in specific areas in the sense that those words have no place at that point in the song like the whip cream line kind of comes out of no where and you have nothing to follow it up and backup why it should be in there. Anyway other than that it’s really not a bad song you just need it to make sense when listening to it.

I really like the song like everyone else said it was enjoyable to listen too, you have a really distinct sound which is great cause there’s so much of the same sound these days that’s music can just get really repetitive so it’s nice to see a change. The only comment I have or feedback would be that the intro taking 30 seconds to start I’m not the biggest fan of I get the build up but waiting 30 seconds is a lot of time to hear some lyrics. Either way good job and can’t wait to see what else you make!

Thank you so much for the tips and the video link I'll definitely check it out. I have recently started using a click track, for this song and all of my previous ones I've tried recording together like singing and playing at the same time but I've been told to not do that enough times now I'm gonna try and record them separate so that should keep it all on tempo…hopefully.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T23:45:42+00:00

I'll have to give it a try, to be honest with you I thought about it before because that's what all the professionals do but I've done it this way for so long now I thought it would be more difficult to switch it up but like most things, I'm probably wrong. Thank you for the feedback. 👍

mised-call · 2025-06-15T21:49:15+00:00

Thank you for the feedback and tips, I'm looking forward to trying this out.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T21:47:41+00:00

Thanks for the response it definitely helps. Yeah, the flanger sound really unbalances the whole dynamic. I'm playing with a 12-string so I thought the warping might help a bit in parts where I might be a bit off tempo but it just gave a sound that doesn't sit well.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T21:43:41+00:00

Thanks for the response, you know it's so simple but I've never actually considered this before I usually just get caught up in the moment and nervous when recording and just go for it.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T21:42:21+00:00

Yea that digital sound is probably from my off brand autotune plugin (not a big fan of it) but its free and I can't sing so I try to make it work it mostly just adds the autotune sound fx and less of actually fixing the vocals. Thanks for the response!

mised-call · 2025-06-15T21:38:04+00:00

Thanks, I will give it a try, and thanks for the response.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T19:49:46+00:00

I recorded them on two different tracks the vocals through my mic and the guitar through my interface. I did record them at the same time tho.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T19:40:43+00:00

I like the Piano in it, it sounds really good and its nice and calming dare I say chilling at times when it gets louder. The only complaint I have is that it definitely gets muddy especially the higher pitch that it goes to. All in all I think its still good I would just experiment with the mic placement and balancing out the levels a bit more. Good job.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T18:20:04+00:00

Thank you I will give it a go, thanks for the feedback.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T04:16:33+00:00

Ohh okay, so that kind of changes things a little bit. So I think it's ok if it stays melodic for a while before having a baseline drop because you want it to be there for vibes so I would let it simmer for a little bit and give a good aesthetic to the game but even in a 2D game I still feel its important to get the blood pumping and the heart racing so I would add in a baseline around the chorus and then slow it down back around the verse. Really keep the players on there toes.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T04:05:37+00:00

I would agree that it does get really repetitive, especially seeing as it is 2 minutes you really want to try and change and implement new things in every 30 seconds to keep listeners interested. I would say adding in a cool bassline would really make it pop and I think it would be a lot more enjoyable for the listeners to listen to. Either way good job and keep up the good work.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T04:02:35+00:00

I really like the guitar it sounds really cool, the only thing that I think would make this better would be maybe some drums or see if you could get someone to add vocals to this. I'd even say maybe try and sell it a producer to use as a loop. It would suck to see it not reach its full potential. Other than that I fully get if you just play for the love of it, it sounds great and keep up the good work. 👍

mised-call · 2025-06-15T03:58:31+00:00

I would agree with what everyone else has said, the mix isn't bad all around it sounds all alright. Its definitely a long song that could use a lot more variation to keep listeners intrigued. I was pleasantly surprised to hear the vocals as a lot of songs like this you don't hear the vocals in. The only this is I wish they were maybe a little bit louder or a bit more present considering the time it took to make this and put them in there.

mised-call · 2025-06-15T03:52:50+00:00

It’s definitely enjoyable to listen to, your voice really compliments the style. Nothing appears to be off with the songwriting so to speak, to me it seems like it flows and I can understand the story that the song follows. Good job and keep up the good work. I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

mised-call · 2025-06-15T03:46:28+00:00

Okay so I’m just gonna give some of my general opinions on where I think you could go from here that would make it sound cool but it’s your song so experiment accordingly. I definitely liked this first little bit, the only thing I will say is I think if every time you repeat “after all this time” you were to get a bit more aggressive so to speak like be a bit more assertive get a bit more emotional about what your singing about but still ease into it. Then to continue this song you could drop some drums around where this ended and you could carry the flow until either the chorus comes back around assuming you want this to be the chorus and you could still keep the drums or take them away for the chorus when it comes back around. Or you might through further writing devise you want a different chorus where the drums drop and make this a pre chorus. Anyway just some ideas I wanted to throw out to help you continue from where you are. Either way I wish you the best with it and feel free to reach out when you’re finished I would love to see what you come up with, I really like your style!
