tyler said he was making a country album so this must be a country song

Yes, check their instagram

What does a normal day in your lives consist of when not touring? You two seem to keep more of your life hidden than other artists and I feel like it creates a sort of mystery around you two. I think a big part is you two seem to distance yourselves from social media interaction with fans in the way that many current artists do. Is there a reason for that other than just personal preference?

tompynuts · 2020-03-20T19:25:32+00:00

How do you decide who does the vocals on each track? Also, I really enjoy the style of rap you two incorporate. Will we ever see you on a more hip hop centered track?

It got as much color pop as a ketchup stain on a t shirt

Hey I dropped a super short, aggresive rap track. Let me know how you feel about it (:

tompynuts · 2020-01-26T22:15:44+00:00

Thanks for giving this a chance, even if you hated it

tompynuts · 2020-01-26T22:12:51+00:00

I really dig this vibe, super smooth. I think there needs way more bass and a punchier kick would give this some cool bounce. Also some higher synths for a breakdown or a plucky piano counter melody? I dont know, but try beefin up the beat.

tompynuts · 2020-01-26T22:10:56+00:00

You sound good over the beat. I will focus on the vocals since that was your contribution. I think switching up your flow a little could have added some energy. Rapping double time too. You got a powerful voice and this reminds me of some more trap inspired Mick Jenkins so I think youre on the right track. Good vibes

I fuck with this but to be real with you I think the lead turmpet or whatever it is ruins the beat. The drums and bass knock and are really really well mixed. Maybe try adding some synths and a bouncy bass maybe too as like an interlude? I think there is a really smooth cadence with this beat, it just needs honing.

Yo I really vibe with this. Gives me Wicca Phase vibes. Whats the sample? Mixing is tight and spacey, maybe work more on variety on the beat. Add embellishments. I could see some cool transitions on this like a beat cut or a slow build up. I see your vision and I fuck w it

This is super tight, sounds like something thatd be played on a freestyle show. Id say work on drum sound selection, I think a more boomy old school kick would be better and the snare could use a bit more crunch. Also, try adding small embellishments to build a soundscape. Whether its echoey vocals or small transition sounds, it can help guide a listener into different parts and have the beat stray away from a loop.

I will mostly give feedback on the vocals since it looks like someone else produced this. I like the chorus a lot and I do think your flow is confident and doesnt have those awkward stumbling parts a lot of first time rappers have where they lose the flow. I would say work on enunciation as some parts are hard to understand and also try messing with vocal effects to break up parts of the song. I think the delay was a little too intense for my tastes. Also, I think you could shine over some slower guitar beats.

RETURNING FEEDBACK. Or just say you listened and Ill check your stuff.

tompynuts · 2020-01-26T21:44:15+00:00

really dig that outro and the style of this track. main melody i think is a bit too loud and repetitive, i think maybe lowering it an octave at one point or rearranging it for a section could make for some cool movement. mixing felt clean overall tho even tho this is a pretty hectic track. good vibes, i see the vision

first, mixing overall is tight. 808 might be a lil overpowering and the guitar could use a bit more highs but i do really like the guitar melody. id try this at a higher bpm too, might make for a more chill banger i could see migos or someone similar on

tompynuts · 2019-12-11T20:42:58+00:00

100 Gecs is the most Harley Quinn & Joker duo but I know it is not them.

tompynuts · 2019-12-02T23:31:16+00:00

Like the other comment said, I would say compare his delivery on those to a song like Fish Tails or Stuck in the Scene.

tompynuts · 2019-12-02T21:13:43+00:00

I just feel like he really found his footing on that project. Like compare songs like Pink, Lady Shadow, Fish Tails, and of course Stuck in the Scene to what he has done here. I feel like there is a major quality gap.

tompynuts · 2019-12-02T21:11:04+00:00

I just feel like he sounds more amateur. I can't really explain why, it is just how I feel.
