This is such a good song, it's hard to be critical. I really got into it and forgot to listen like an engineer. Guess I'm just a fan.

Speaking of fans, I like that Epiphone you got. I can't give you much help on recording bass. I just plug in to the Focusrite, which goes into the input and play. When I mix it I'll add the Waves CLA Bass and Bass Rider (thanks to the advice of Bud Merritt). I think you're way above my pay grade regarding recording, but if you ever think of anything I can help with, send me a message.

Thanks.... I played in a band where the drummer actually rode the crash a lot.... it was irritating but it was what we did.

When you forget to listen with the ears of an engineer, I reckon that means I did my job as a writer. I gotta figure out the bass thing.... I believe it's going to involve cutting and carving frequencies.

I thought the Bass was somewhat "indistinct". Since you were more or less showcasing it (and the amp), I was expecting a bit more "punch" from it. But that did not distract from (or affect) the overall sound.


I believe it was you who commented on the riding the cymbals thing on the first version. This was a case of copy and paste until I got the parts where I wanted them, and the whole ride the crash is gone.

Yep.... I agree on the indistinctness of the bass. I will certainly get that figured out as time goes on. The new bass track was my legitimate excuse to repost this.... (LOL) but I do need to work on the details a bit. I likely won't repost it if I even rework the bass line.... it's done.

Thanks for your time

Outstanding job on everything

IMHO your best to date


What can I say to disagree with that? Thank you for your kind words.

Thanks

Great rocker!

We love the lyric full of vivid imagery and all the performances.

The intro and outro were very good.

Dual guitars, yeah! Nice work on the bass.

A stadium filling production all the way around.

Enjoyed this new version very much!
