Re: Harboring unsafe thoughts about your songs (Safe Harbor reviews)

A high quality week I think. Here are my personal views this time round: Dark Side of the Son - I like the atmosphere generated in this track a lot, someone used the word 'ominous' in a review, that's a good description. The recording and mix could certainly be improved, but that is secondary to the...

Re: I loved your song! (Baked Out Of My Gourd reviews)

A few thoughts from me: Levittdown - Nice little simple ditty. Quite enjoyed this. I think it benefitted from being nice and short or it would have needed some additional instruments, sections, and interest. But as it is in this form it was just fine. A really nice listen. Jerkatorium feat. Micah So...

The verse melody in this really reminds me of another song.

Re: Glowing and effusive per usual (Incandescent reviews)

Paco del Stinko - Certainly has the feel of The Jam about it in the bass and guitars. Really catchy and fun. The slow down and re-start works really well, especially as the song builds up again afterwards. Superb ending. Seems to me you aimed for a certain sound and style and hit it dead on, great w...

Re: Expect it to be coherent and concise (Whiskey Drinker reviews)

Hi @Josh. Thank you very much for the comments, this sort of feedback is like gold dust to us. Your mix and keys comments are noted. No, we haven't got a legit studio (that'd be marvellous!). We just do mostly home recordings and occasionally hire a studio when we need to. We typically mix and maste...

Re: Expect it to be coherent and concise (Whiskey Drinker reviews)

Hi All, In my opinion, the best thing about Songfight is getting the reviews and feedback on songs, it really does help. So, thanks everyone for taking the time. Here are my thoughts: Berkeley Social Scene - Nice guitar sound, pretty nice vocal melody. Guitar solo is fine but may have benefitted fro...
