"new kidnapping (no vox)"

recorded this last night, dfhs on drums and 6505+ with a tubescreamer for guitars, i think we're going to record vocals either today or tomorrow

i kinda want to rerecord the breakdown part, all the tracks werent tracked as clean as id hoped, hows it sound otherwise?


edit: went over this pretty thoroughly, cleaned up the guitars, different kick and snare samples, messed around with lead tones, etc



edit again: now with vocals!

i think the solo at 1:50 is too loud over the mix. it drowns out the guitar behind it. the overdub at 3:30 are also a little loud. the snare sounds kind of weak, almost like its a cymbal. good songwriting though, really catchy riffs.

Nice mix!

Guitars sound tight and crispy... would be great to hear this with vocals when it's all done... for DFHS, the cymbals sound crisp as well man.. good job!

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

Yeah man I agree with B N B this shit sounds great. But I also got to agree with the doc, the snare just needs more bawls, in fact I would try another one if you can.

 

[Kazrog]

Really great overall, killer guitar tone, I like the writing a lot too! I agree with the d to the o to the c.

 

[MartysPooh]

bows.

the only thing for me, and even after the new mix its still bothering me...
the harmony lead(0:55 and 3:24) over top of both of our rhythm parts sounds like too much, too much guitar competing for melodic space... so I say lower my rhythm in the mix a little just for that part...

I don't know why I didn't just tell you this on AIM... probably because you'll be excited to see someone else post in your thread.

also... do think it would sound neat if we did a flange, and i dont mean subtle, effect for when you play the rhythm chords alone that first time? (0:34)

 

[s34nsm411]

i finally got around to getting vocals on it, what do you guys think?

 

[Nebulous]

Sounds good to me. Nothing really sticks out as needing major work, if any at all. Nice job there.

 

[thefyn]

Tidy! Not my cup of blood musically but great sound dude.

 

[Black neon bob]

Now.. how did you record those guitars?
