Wolftacular responds:
I am very very glad you like it! Thanks a bunch for the comment!! :D
If memory serves, you remade this song (different submission), but this is the one I like best. The instrumentals accompany the lyrics perfectly. Wishing you the best of success, either personally or professionally :)
Wolftacular responds:
Wow, thank you man! I didn't remake it, but a buddy in here helped me remaster it. I plan to re-record it eventually with more time for better quality and stuffs. Thanks a bunch for the comment! I don't get many nowadays :)
Great song Wolftacular, i am really happy you ended up submitting :D
I love your voice..the song is pretty awesome indeed, the only complain i might have is because of the mix, seems to have a little too much lower frequencies and reverb making it it sound muddy at times and noise can be heard at the piano solo..other than that this song is really great.
Wolftacular responds:
Yeah lol, I really suck at mixing! But I really appreciate the honest feedback, man! I'm glad you think it's good!!
Love the strings, love the lyrical creativity, and you have a great voice, man. My (hopefully constructive!) feedback would be that the piano part hitting the chords the way they do ... it adds like a choppiness to an otherwise smoothly-flowing song. Maybe that's what you're going for, and maybe it wouldn't be as much of an issue if it weren't as muddy (see: Divo's comment), but to my ear it stuck out and not in a particularly good way. But overall man, it sounds great! I'm really impressed with the writing from both a musical and lyrics perspective.
Wolftacular responds:
Yeah, my poor excuse for mixing skills always gets in the way somehow. I was also in a huge rush to get this done because of the deadline. I only had a couple days to work because I moved out of the state. Anyway, either way, I'll look into the piano stuff to see if I can catch what you're referring to. I'm almost convinced it's just the mixing though, since it sounded well enough alone. Thanks a bunch for listening and reviewing!
I think the idea behind this song is really good. Both the melody and the lyrics I like. However, it sounded kind of unnatural to me. One thing was that the vocals sounded too far away and the instruments too close, especially at the end when the piano kind of drowned out your vocals.
Also, it seemed like you tried to use different voices to play different roles in the song. I thought you could add some backing vocals to one of those sections to highlight that contrast.
Good luck in the competition!
Wolftacular responds:
Yah, like I've said to everyone else, I have the worst recording and mixing/producing skills!! It's not that I don't know what I want; I simply don't ever know how to get there lol and I end up making more of a mess than anything.
That second thing about adding backing vocals is something I'd thought about before, it's a great idea!! Thanks for sharing that! I didn't have time to do it before though ): but maybe I'll submit an edit sometime and add that!!
Thanks for listening and reviewing man!!
