TMV World Legacy Member Kukishor Posted January 19, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 19, 2013 Hi guys. My band has just released a new song, which is in fact a refreshed version of our old one. We've recorded everything from the beginning and enriched it with some additional effects. I would love to hear some feedback. PHEDORA - VANITY FAIR (2013) Here's also the old version, if you'd like to make a comparison - PHEDORA - VANITY FAIR (2012)
TMV World Legacy Member mvrasseli Posted January 19, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 19, 2013 The 2013 version is realy good. The production is very good, as well the arrangements. Nice listening at all. [url=http://marcusilva.blogspot.com]Blog[/url] ɸ [url=http://www.jamendo.com/br/artist/Marcus_Rasseli]Jamendo[/url]
TMV World Legacy Member ronws Posted January 20, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 20, 2013 I agree, even with the soft mix of the vocals. The overall effect is smooth. Good stuff.
TMV World Legacy Member Kukishor Posted January 21, 2013 Author TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 21, 2013 Thank you very much! I'm really glad you like it, please keep on commenting, I always do appreciate criticism - it helps me to develop my abilities.
TMV World Legacy Member icymei Posted January 21, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 21, 2013 I really like it, even though it's not really my genre! As for singing I really suck so I can't review yours, but it sounded good~
TMV World Legacy Member ronws Posted January 21, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 21, 2013 Icy, give yourself some credit. Whether you are a stellar singer or not, you can review a performance. Why? Because you are also a member of the music-buying public, right? Would you buy this song for your phone or ipod? If it was on the radio, would you keep listening or change the station? True, you might not have all the technical singing terms to over a precise critique. But that's okay. Sometimes the simple "I didn't like this" is something to learn from. A person may have recorded and mixed something the way they liked and it just doesn't do anything for anyone else. Which means they take that advice and go back and re-mix it. I can be brutal about that. I have asked someone who posted a recording recently, "did whoever mix this just absolutely hate singers? I can hardly hear the vocals." I could probably phrase that differently but at least it gets someone's attention. So, make whatever comments you can, whether you are an expert or not. Sometimes, I get critiqued by someone who was born AFTER I quit auditioning for bands in the 90's. It's all good.

Ok, thanks I will then^^ To the OP: I definitely thought it was awesome, the production was cool. However this is not my style, so I would not buy it.
TMV World Legacy Member Kukishor Posted January 22, 2013 Author TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 22, 2013 Yeah, just as ronws says - not only technical opinions are welcome, so go on :)
TMV World Legacy Member ronws Posted January 23, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 23, 2013 All that being said, I appreciate artistic endeavor. Someone may post a song here that while I value it artistically, I would not necessarily buy it.That is, it can be neat hearing someone sing a hard rock song from an opera perspective and I would appreciate it and even say "good job," Even though it wouldn't sell two copies in the music-buying public world. However, when someone does something that I think would sell and that I would buy for my own music collection, I do not hesitate to mention that, along with the limited knowledge I have of the music business, which can be consolidated to very basic words. Get a lawyer and a manager. Which doesn't mean that my opinion will pan out but I have a 50/50 chance of being right. :)
