Heres yet another original song guys!!! Aly wrote the Lyrics and did the bass guitar and mixing. I wrote the rhythm and slide guitar and made the video myself!!! Hope you guys enjoy!!!
Enjoyed that, has a suitably swampy vibe.
Oh, my! Itās just awesome; everything: the music, the lyrics, the sound qualityā¦ Actually, I shouldnāt be surprised at all after hearing your previous production. Congrats!
Thanks !
Can you give me a mixing critique? Thank you!
This mix works pretty well, Allison, not a lot to consider for tweaking.
Maybe Iād raise the percussion in the left and right channels just a wee wee bit. Sometimes I find it can be as little as 1dB to find the sweet spot, a couple of dB and it may be too much. Iād also listen to that percussion and balance the levels across both channels. I think the right may have been a little soft by comparison.
Perhaps the bass up also just a smidge.
But really it sounds pretty good as you have it.
Thank you so much!!!
I did raise the bass & drums this time past where I would have normally put them-per your advice on the last one but I guess I need to be brave & go up a tiny bit more
Thanks again for the tips!
Love the video!
Thereās a little electric guitar in there too! I tried to take a back seat in this one & it paid off !!
Great job & such fun to create with you again!
I know we discussed getting a fresh pair of ears on the mix as you wrapped it up, Allison. Doing that has been invaluable for me in my own productions. Then if you push something a little too far, you get that feedback before youāve published. And once youāve been working on a production for a while it is easy to get a little stale.
Top class stuff Byron/AlyKat. I could feel the āgators nipping at my heels!
Like it, great playing and pretty good lyrics. The mix was pretty solid and without being really nitpicking I donāt think you could have done better!
Very nicely done!
Thanks Sairfiners ! Once I hear Byrons rhythm & found that drum track, the song took us right in that direction!
Thanks DarrellW !
Thanks all!! YES!! Was fun working with you again as well Aly! I knew this would be a great rhythm for a song!! Hope everyone enjoyed the video better than my last one i put together!! Guess im kinda getting the hang of it lol.
Byron
Another great song, well performed and good production. The lyric demands attention and thereās a terrific hook to the chorus that makes the song memorable. Echos of CSNY and, still, Bonnie āPrinceā Billy. Youāre in a really good groove. Encore!
Brian
Thanks Brian! We worked hard on this one! I think it turned out pretty great! Dang echoes of CSNY huh? Thats awesome!!!
I used a C battery as a slide for the slide guitar LOL!
Thank you Brian ! We appreciate everyone taking the time to listen!
Wow, you two! Well done. I enjoyed this as being something a bit unique. Maybe a cross between Indie and the Blues? Great video. I loved the āTornadoā lyrics.
Thanks !!! Thats a perfect way to describe the genre. I like being unique! Thank you
