Re: It's not bravery if you aren't afraid (Courage Is For Cowards reviews)

BSS Like the panning of the instruments. I think the reverb/eq on the vocals is impacting my ability to understand them. It's like they are blurred with too much low frequency content?? I want them as jangly and crisp as the guitars. Harmony on "new beginner" is great. The Craic Pipers No...

Re: Holy microtonality, Batman! (New Modality reviews)

Max Bombast : Mix is amazing, but I want the vocals a little further forward, although they are perfectly comprehensible so maybe they are fine where they are! I guess I think the guitar on the left is pulling focus due to volume. It's a great jam. Hardmonica : Just a really pleasant song, agree th...

Re: Song Fight! Live IRL 2023

I am in favor of Bend mostly because it is a nice place and not terribly difficult for me to get to. But if it's on the east coast I might be able to talk mob01d into coming and we could have a High Density reunion. I might try that anyway, though.

Re: Five is right out! (I'm Gonna Explode reviews)

The Big Nasty I'm not much of a hard rock guy but this is solid. I turned the volume down so the guitars are at a comfortable medium volume and find it difficult to understand the vocals at that volume, maybe they could come up a bit. Future Boy ft.

I'm thinking maybe for the edit I'll try using a slightly clearer sounding reverb, but stacking it on a delay send?
Yeah I thought maybe having them on a delay might work, like how you did during the chorus (I think).

Re: Nur Ein XVII: Round Two "Floating In the Water"

Here are some off-the-cuff reviews: Adam Adamant - love the synths. vocal delivery reminds me of Figurine. wish the vocals were a bit cleaner and more upfront with more aggressive autotune. The Alleviators - so chill, so relaxing. i like the vibe and the washy reverb. doubled vocals is great, might ...

Blue was also part of Japantown Three http://songfight.org/artistpage.php?key=japantown_three, which was Blue, myself, and Jack Shite I think? I remember the little practice space we worked on the song in, but I don't remember if it was for an SFL or what.
