I tried recording vocals and realized it's way harder than I imagined. First of all hearing your voice from the speakers sounds awful :D and then it's not really that easy and you need a place where you can shout. Well this is how it turned out. It's kinda my first try really, but I'm planning to add vocals to more of my stuff. It's fun and I want to learn this.

I used my "We're Alive" song I made some time ago in fl studio for this one and the lyrics aren't really about being alive, more like the other way around. I'm not much of a lyrics writer and just needed some words to fit in the melody.

I left the end there for fun cause I like doing weird sounds in the mic ;)

Special thanks to NG user Firefreezer for rendering - I had some problems with that.

enjoy..

Cool

The vocals harmonize nicely.

You need a better microphone.

This song would be 10x better with cleaner vocals.

I'm not feeling the snare drum too much.

Guitars are amazing.

Effects were used very nicely

5/5 10/10

Very nice.

The music...is...AMAZING. The vocals seem a little drowned out maybe
they could be louder or doubled. (they sound doubled at parts so maybe
just need to be turned up).

The music is amazing. Vocals need a llliiitttllleee work.

9/10
5/5

You got skills!

Doumaaa responds:

Thank you man! I'm replying to reviews a little late here, it took me just 12 years :)

Buuut... I'm glad you enjoyed this and thank you very much for the positive words!

Haha I don't remember saying that, I think it's just gibberish, but it does sound like that :D

Very interesting

What I would do if I were you. Firstly, don't drop this experimental slash cute vocals. I would keep exploring it until I get to something truly unique (because it sounds like it definitely has a potential to go somewhere special). Secondly, I would start self-teaching myself about writing lyrics. Lyrics remain the message and soul of every song that contains vocals that are not meant to be pure Ohh/Ahh sounds. And they either make song better or bring it down. Mature, inspired lyrics brings a lot to the table, while "I just wrote this" lyrics make it difficult for serious listener to treat composer/lyricist seriously. Thirdly, I would consider working on THIS song some more to bring it to about 3 minutes or more, and (that way) work on my song-building skills.
Good luck! :)

I'm almost 11 years late with my response here, I'm sorry about that :) but after reading this I still feel I wanna say thank you for this constructive review. Take care and thanks Didgaraya.
