I (always) love Future Boy's moral clarity, which merits more engagement than googling and pulling quotes from Wikipedia.

Thank you, this is very kind. I also really enjoyed how you tackled American history.

I finally managed to get my song recorded for this title:

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...

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...

By Future Boy I wanted to get help with a problem in my mind So I called up a friend who is patient and kind They told me that my problem was I didn't know how to think So I ought to go see a shrink I got a recommendation for a therapist to call I wrote some affirmations and hung them on my wall It'...

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.

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. Trip to the Archives Thanks for the compliments o...

damikhz - this is me being ~experimental~ i was pretty happy with it after recording it, now some of it sounds a bit cheesy. i don't think i do enough spoken word for the delivery to be as good as it needs to be to sound properly "serious" but fun fact this is a single take recorded stere...

What Happened Last Year by damikhz I quit my job And found myself Sleeping in until 10 Eating breakfast and then Going back to to sleep again I lost myself in feedback networks And strange stereo fields Sliced up sound into grains And made a harp Plucked by patch cables I sang songs of pain and hop...

Maybe I will write full reviews, but I just had to pop in and say the Lichen Throat vs Chumpy entry is a fuckin bop.

The Whistler Yaks of the Industry Arrange me in black and gray A memory when you’re barely away A faded picture in a broken frame Time for you to forget my name Interruption from the past A sound that brings you back Your memories will disappear When the whistler fades to black In the end we all fa...

Elks : You get 'On Horseback' by Mike Oldfield. It's complicated how we ended up there, but congratulations. Also you can have some Arthur Lyman too, to keep the mood going. Also we all know this is really about the Iron Giant, which is how it should be. FrbmePR-mUk WHWQo4wExsk Thank you so much fo...

Summer Robot by Elks of the Economy We decided to write a very slippery jazz tune instead of the usual pop fare for a different "sound" Here are the changes for the curious: A section Bb/D Dm7#5 Bb/D Dm7#5 Bbm6 Bbdim Bbm6 A7 Bb/D Dm7#5 Bb/D Dm7#5 Bbsus/C# G#/C B6sus/G# G#6sus/F F6sus/D B ...

Elks are in with fountain pens, page flipping, book dropping, and espresso making and drinking.

I fixed it last night and posted a version that actually sounds good to SoundCloud, for all our friends to hear. In the spirit of sportsmanship, I encourage the judges NOT to listen until scores are posted, but everyone else please take a listen, because I think the song came out so well!! :cry: ht...

Elks of the Economy- Future Boy and Friends. This has loads of Future Boy greatness going on. No offense to the other Song Fight Titans in this supergroup, but this one sounds very Future Boy! This is awesome! One of my favorites of the round for sure! Sweet jazz chords! Awwww no real solo? Booo! T...

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).

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 ...
