That is indeed a _real_ WTF statement.

Thank you, Elliott, for listening and for your nice feedback.
I actually have Ninezero, but hate his annoying nasal sound.
If I had known that this nasal sound could not be configured away, I would never have bought it.

But before you ask: No, I have no idea what exactly I'm protesting against, but I'm pretty sure it's important.
Yep. Perhaps a bit too generic, but then, people are always saying that songs should be universal, and what could be more universal than a song that applies to everything? wink

For a change, I tried a wild mix of end rhymes and internal rhymes
I think it kinda works.
At least I'd like to think so.
Yep, the work well enough. The inner rhymes were fun.

You've got some sort of distortion on the vocal that didn't work for me. Not a big deal.

The title doesn't seem to match the song. The POV of the title addresses people, telling them they need to fight for their rights, while the POV of the song is the narrator addressing the towe-dwelling bloodsucking vampire freaks. Not a big deal at all.

I like the contrast between the verse and chorus - it's always good to have a song make the sound different.

Anyway, good job.
Hi David,
thanks for listening and your detailed feedback.
Much appreciated as always [Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]

The distortion you mentioned is intentional. I figured an angry girl shouting out loudly into a mic wouldn't care that the meters are deep red, giving it more authenticity.
I have to admit that it's not so pleasing to the ear.

You have a good point with the POV, it wasn't an easy decision between "...for my rights", "...for our rights" and "...for your rights".
The first one sounds selfish and the last one is not exactly what the song is about.
But the second option, in my opinion, has such a bad flow (as a title) that I didn't like it at all.

Of late whenever we see the news we get the same angry feeling.

Natalie and the bgv’s sound great and the lyric rhymes work very well.
That is one amazing vocal ... the intonation and phrasing is outstanding.

Great mix ... clean, open and a nice soundstage on the KRK's.

Excellent!

J&B
Thanks J & B for listening and commenting, especially on the vocals and the production.
Watching or reading the news is indeed a good source of emotion when you want to write a protest song.
I try to avoid that, though...

Excellence in every facet. Lytric, synth vocals, backing tracks - all top shelf. I fully agree with the message - nicely done. It's always a pleasure to listen to your music. there's never a disappointment. I'm glad you joined the forum a while back. Hope you stay for a long time.

Best to you,

Thanks Scott for listening and your comment.

I always start the mixing process with drums and bass.
For my workflow, it doesn't make sense to do anything else until a solid low end foundation is in place.

Hi B.D. Thomas

Beautiful, very eye-catching construction. It's pleasant with its softer passages and this rhythm which comes back in force. well done.
