I've got all the downloadable ones downloaded.
Punchy: I'm with Dexter...I don't get the bass being panned hard left. It's not that it doesn't work, it's just unusual. The effects at the beginning are interesting. Very well played and well recorded. It has a nice full sound. The cymbols are a little piercing, but otherwise everything is really well mixed and nothing is overbearing. Great job.
Phil: Very nice clean tone. I like the progression too. I think the drums could stand to be a little louder. I know that when using programmed drums, there's a tendency to bring them down in the mix to hide the electronicness of them, but I'd rather hear them be higher in the mix even if they do sound like a drum machine. I like the spacey atmosphere the keyboard creates.
Cfgsteak: I think a bassline would help this one out some. The guitars are done well. I like the surfy style reverb on the guitars. Vocals aren't your forte, but with some practice, I think you'd be able to pull them off no problem. You just need to say screw it and sing it out like you own it.
Johnny N: Hell of a voice. I think it's a little loud in the mix though, and they are distorting a little. Like SI said, record low enough not to clip. You can always bring up a signal that's too quiet after it's recorded, but once the input is clipped, there's no way to unclip it. Since this song has such a wide dynamic range on the vocals, compression really would help to keep the louder parts from being so overpowering. Guitar solo and distorted rhythm guitar sound good. Overall, it's a really good recording. I do think bringing the vocals down a few db would help it tremendously though.
Aahzz: Nice intro. Bouncy. Again, I think some compression on the vocals would keep them from being so overpowering in places. They are well mixed on the verses, but the chorus gets a little overpowering. I really like the song. And again, it's well recorded.
RonK: Really great guitar tone and super nice playing. You said that it was a backing track and you just did the lead guitar, right? If you did everything, then you did a super job on everything. If you just did the guitars, you did a super job on them.
Suhnton: Yeah, this doesn't belong in the beginner's thread. It sounds really good. A bit bass heavy, but still very good. Kind of reminds me of Collective Soul. Reminds me a LOT of Collective Soul, actually. I like it a lot.
Hobo Uncle Sam: Really nice playing. There's some buzz in the recording. Were you right in front of a CRT monitor when you did the recording? CRT monitors cause a lot of buzz. There's not really much to comment on recording wise, but the playing is great.
Jay Hitz: Really nice. I might have tried a little different tone for the rhythm and lead guitar parts. The fuzz on the lead works fine for me, but I'd rather hear a more defined almost clean rhythm part. Recording sounds good though, and again, the playing is really good.
Tyoc: Way too short. Again, not much to comment on as far as the recording. The tone sounds good and there's no noise. That's about as much as I can say. The playing was good, and I wanted to hear more.
I'll go back and the get the few that were streaming only now.
