TMV World Legacy Member Mivke Posted December 9, 2012 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted December 9, 2012 Hey everybody! Some of you may recognize me as a lurker here, it's time for me to post my first song. I'm singing all the vocals aswell as playing all the guitars. The bass and drums are midi. This is a work in progress, meaning your critique and input is greatly appreciated. Give it to me however you wish, technique or just likeability, all is welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMV World Legacy Member Guest Posted December 9, 2012 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted December 9, 2012 I thought your voice sounded good on this (guitar also) although a little weak maybe. However I am unfamiliar with this song so had to look for it to compare. Somehow I felt borderline as to if it should have just a tiny bit more solidity to the vocals. Maybe a little more support because it is so soft and low of a song? Not sure. But overall I thought it sounded good. It seems a difficult song only because it is such a monotone and dull melody. Not really a "singing" song with ups and downs and in and outs, highs and lows. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felipe Carvalho Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Humm. I think it can be better man, your voice is sounding quite relaxed but sounding kinda insecure. Consolidate the details of the interpretation, and just make the song your own, its all there, take full control of it, aim to make it better than the original version. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMV World Legacy Member Mivke Posted December 10, 2012 Author TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted December 10, 2012 Thanks for listening @tommy: Yeah, its been harder than I thought to find the balance between too strong and too relaxed/mellow.maybe I lost some intensity in trying to keep it soft rather than just pushing back on the volume. But as you said its not a very singy song, I just wanted to open with something I can control. You will hear me do some in and outs in the future @felipe Yeah, I hear what you say. I think I will give it some time though, kinda need to not hear this song for a short while so can get back the feel for it,its been studied quite intensely lately and I've gotten a bit blind I think :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMV World Legacy Member Mivke Posted January 6, 2013 Author TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted January 6, 2013 Ok, here is my final version of the song. I updated the vocals and the "main guitar". For those of you who listened to the first version, I would much appreciate a listen to this version and know what you thought of the difference. For those who have heard neither, well listen and critique in whatever way you like Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felipe Carvalho Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I like it. The chorus is sounding awesome man. Really good job. Keep it up . How many takes in this? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMV World Legacy Member Guest Posted January 6, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted January 6, 2013 I thought this was a more solid performance than the first Mivke. I bit more controlled and steady/consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMV World Legacy Member Mivke Posted January 6, 2013 Author TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted January 6, 2013 @Felipe Thanks man! Regarding the takes, I have no idea how many times I've sung the song However, all the vocals are one-takes. Then of course that sums up to some takes since during the chorus there is 4 vocal tracks. @Tommy Thanks for taking the time to listen, really appreciate it. Hopefully soon there will be another song around here from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
