I've gotten this new song finished now which I wrote and recorded in a few days. I am not much for spending a lot of time on the production and recording process so this is a demo, much like my other tunes (which you've already heard one on Limelady's video).

Hope you like it.

Constructive criticism not welcome :D

I like your style mate! Very modal. Now here comes constructive criticism!

The start sounds a bit out of sync to me and the EQ is a little off, but that's it!

Again, I like your style!

Cheers, thanks for the feeedback.

Maybe the delay on the melody throws you off in the beginning because it doesn't sound out of sync to me.

What do you recommend with the EQ? I literally spent zero time on the eq as I use this recording template from my other songs.

Well, the only thing I'd say to do is higher up the rhythm, and lower down the lead, try and level it, sounds a bit of kilter if you know what I mean.

Keep up the good work :D

nope, no idea what you mean by "kilter" :D

Funnily enough, i turned down the rhythm in an attempt not to make it over bearing.

If i get some time and the notion i might get back to it but the only developement that might make me get back on it is that my friend wants to lay down the drum tracks with his kit.

I can only say nicely done :) I guess you must have used synthesizers or something. Otherwise you sure know how to play alot of instruments :)

It's beautiful. I look forward to more from you. Kinda hooked since Limelady's video (http://www.davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7687). ;)

Synthesizers lol. It's 100% guitar and drums.

The only thing I didn't play was the drums, they are programmed with samples (very simple this time, usually i try to do a lot on the drums for my other musical projects). The rest is my acoustic guitar, a microphone, my sonic production skills :D and my trusty four string bass, which I had to use with only 3 strings because the tuning on it is B E A D since it's used in my death metal projects :D

I have actually remixed it and balanced the instruments more. I will upload it later.

nice nice nice, well done man, wish i could play like that, a friend once described my guitar playing as 'banging on trees'.
