Re: Why go to sleep only to (Wake Up Again reviews)

RoneAI - This is not my jam, genre-wise. But it is really good at being what it is! I wish I had more notes. If I were drunk and this was being played live, I'd spit on both hands, rub them together, and try my very best to get into it in a full body kind of way, but sort of toward the back.

Re: Why go to sleep only to (Wake Up Again reviews)

Robyn Mackenzie - I love these layered vocals. Very playful arrangement. Great variety and mixture of motifs, refrains -- keeps it fresh throughout. "Speak to my lover in the tongue of my mother's broken heart" - I like how tongue and heart both aren't literal references to organs. - I app...

Re: Why go to sleep only to (Wake Up Again reviews)

Mellfire: love the mellotron(?) And these scale-climbing choruses.The beginning verses and jokes sounded slightly too earnest for me to get into it but I was sold later. I love the "peculiar sounds/react" chorus followed by the "hold me your arms" bit. I think words like "k...

Re: Why go to sleep only to (Wake Up Again reviews)

Reve and Ujn: nice atmosphere. I'm always up for a 70s triumphant castle wizard song vibe. Parts of this sound like Judas in JCSS. Annoyed Android: lots of panning here not complaining though. I'm not sold on the drums or instrumentation choices, but I do like where it's going. Toward the end Im lik...

Re: A song of a ballad of a tale of (Blood and Fire prefight)

Trying not to be a curmudgeon, but I feel like I'll probably not have any desire to review AI lyrics. Using AI seems more like SongCockfight than the cage match that is SF.

I'll commit to this. Maybe if the challenge involves a weird instrument it can be specified in advance so I can get it cheap on marketplace.

I just want to take a moment to complain to the Fightmaster that my fight cover image wasn't used. WTF.

Re: I'm too lazy to be crazy in the (Hazy Holidays reviews)

Well I reckon John Hartford is one of the best lyricists ever and his songs almost always have a few half rhymes thrown in. I want to swim in that soup. It can be done poorly and it can be done well. I won't rant about vocal affectation now because that would be more fun to do in relation to a SF en...

Re: I'm too lazy to be crazy in the (Hazy Holidays reviews)

Well, and I mean this sincerely, the only thing I like more than some [decently-conceived] half rhymes is a hater going on a rant. I hear this is what the SF forums used to be like. More please.

I recoil more at certain vocal affectations, but we all have our peeves.

Great late action in the reviews. Thanks team. Heine, I always appreciate a listen. Johnny Stokes was a rare moment when the house was empty and I chose to sing in a different register and add lots of wailing. Great memories. I keep piling up songs and have this goal to put out another album before ...

Re: I'm too lazy to be crazy in the (Hazy Holidays reviews)

Heine The ba-ba-ba intro is tight. That soft furry bassline is great. I’m enjoying all the dynamics of this arrangement. I think the lyrics could use another element. Something slightly dark. The close mic stuff at the end makes me think of Mark Knopfler’s “My Parties” – soo good. but I still want a...

Re: Time to schedule my colonoscopy (I Only Go Once A Week reviews)

Fat Boy Jams - I really dig the delivery of the vocals. Everything has equal emphasis is a cool way -- different than how a lot of spoken word gets delivered. The lyrics and the music compliment each other well. Johnny Cashpoint - The blown-out sound is really torturing me, but I like what you're do...
