Re: A parade, or a marathon?! (A Grand Parade reviews)

Late song added from ... Carol Cleveland Sings! Belated Review... Carol Cleveland Sings : This is very well recorded! I did not expect the change; after half of the song it changed tempo and turned into a funny Sparks kind-a tune! Even vocals-wise! So, I have to vote! (Oh, I wished that it was just...

Re: A parade, or a marathon?! (A Grand Parade reviews)

Heuristics Inc. : The longest song in this fight? Synth pop. A little doughy but okay. I would prefer to hear this one in a smaller fight. ... Let me just point out that my song is 4:20, hardly a long prog track? For some reason, though, it appears that with some players the SoundForge mp3 conversi...

Re: A parade, or a marathon?! (A Grand Parade reviews)

A Grand Parade reviews by heine A great battle in terms of quantity and quality! It seems everybody did an extra mile to submit a good production. Due to the sheer mass of songs there will be only some short initial thoughts I had while listening. Abjure! : A uke-song. Nice vocals harmonies. Well d...

heine : I hear a lot of traditional Vietnamese and Thai bamboo flute jams, often soaked in rich plate reverb, in restaurants. Sometimes they mix it up with Western music, and this is kinda what this sounds like ... for the first 17 seconds. No bamboo flute, it's supposed to be the spherical sound o...

Re: Name a state with no Daylight Savings Time (Surprise, Arizona reviews)

Strong fight! Seems here are the first reviews... Add : The writing isn't that bad that it needs a lot of gimmicks and effects. A proper chorus with a straight beat (4 to the floor) would have been nice. It is firmly recorded and mixed. Basement Bunburies : You found your own niche. Always a pleasa...

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

Each and every song I post, I ask myself how heavy and annoying my accent is. I try my best to avoid/reduce it. But I can't listen with native's ears. So - if not for Songfight! - I prefer writing and singing in German language. I don't find it annoying at all. It is a trait that distinguishes you ...

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

... When you sing close to the mic it accentuates all the low harmonics in your voice and gives it a deeper tint, which is great but I think works against you in this particular "summer fun" kind of song. So sing a few inches back from the mic, change the key so you can sing it in a highe...

No idea for lyrics this time... I have no real musical talent beyond occasionally stringing together some nice sounding words. Happy to give it a try if you have a basic melody in place, no obligation to use/like/do anything with what I come up with. You can find me lurking around discord ;) Thanks...

Re: Where Gen X'ers are moving to (Surprise, Arizona prefight)

No idea for lyrics this time. So I tried Jim's approach; building a melody from the words.
I used my first take live demo (cut down a little). Just me, my 12 string and my flaws.
Nothing to win, just to be in.
