New Metalcore/progressive Mix

[Dcnewman]

Hey guys I'm sorta new to this forum so I thought I would give my two cents, this is a project I'm sort of starting to put together called Rifts. I know the playing is a bit sloppy at parts, but this serves more of a composition purpose than anything else because I'll probably end up re recording everything once things start to get rolling with it.

Also If anyone would like to put some vocals to this I'd love to hear your interpretation! I'm also up for any collabs anyone wants to do just PM me!

Here it is:

Anything?

The guitars sound honky and the snare is a bit loud.

What do you mean honky?

I actually just got a Digidesign Eleven rack and have yet to figure out how to record the stems without the rig processing, but once I figure it out I'll record the Di's and post them for ya, thanks for the input

 

[Nuno Filipe]

Too much mids on the guitars

If you post stems for this ill track vocals on it.
its just hard to since i cant download it or anything haha

i also like to track vocals to a click track along with the music.

 

[Dcnewman]

well the stems would have all of the rig settings off of my eleven rack applied to them because i have yet to figure out how to record the raw tracks and apply the amp processing afterwards. heres a wav file of the whole song:

you can probably just make a click track and set it to 155 bpm and that should line up thoughout the song since its all in 4/4 and there are no tempo changes, i think haha

Here you go man, did a quick free style vocal track.
kinda improved a lil. if you are interested in me doing the rest the song i will finish writing it.

all recorded with a SM7b

My vocals are kinda like tough guy hardcore vocals
so idk how out of place everyone will think it is lol.

my band is taking a break right now for a month because our guitarist mom died so this is the first time i have done vocals in a good 3-4 weeks.
So do not be to hash
but it was fun doing them anyways.
