That's a great riff smiley
Power Trip by albumflaps 3 months ago
I'll be honest man. I like the fat growl you get from the guitars. But having two guitar tracks is tricky. I often find (this tune included) that the guitar melodies/riffs sound disconnected from each other and it really bugs me. They're minding their own business rather than building up to a common cause.
Matter of taste I guess. It's why jazz gives me nausea and why I can't solo over powerful but busy riffs.
You Can't Buy Love by KennediKing 3 months ago
It's good to listen to a complete song from time to time. You don;t get many of those on sites like this. Great tune smiley

Some interesting themes goign on in there. I actually liked the non-guitars better I think. The ending theme is pure win.

It's a little on the chaotic side...
Music in a Dream (New Masterpiece) by JTC 4 months ago
It's interesting you know, it has a stark contrast. You don't force your singing, scream or all that kind of stuff. A very intense guitar lead tone alternating with a deep calm voice makes an interesting combo. It's like H.I.M. on shred-oids. Work it to your advantage man.

Good voice man. Reminds me of REM.

Great riffs, layering and tone! This smokes the medieval tune as far as I am concerned.

Has some right elements for a Bond theme.
Who I'm Supposed To Be by JTC 5 months ago
Sweet man! That's a real acoustic guitar, right? Not just an electric on clean? If it is electric that is one bloody hell of an excellent simulation.
My Jam on G major Heaven ballad by fminorpenta 5 months ago
I think you need to work a bit on your bends. Practice reaching a target pitch. Also work on your bend-release. That quick jerky bend motion you do combined with the randomness of the target pitch really kills any tune. It sounds like a boy in puberty, you know when their voice randomly switches pitch as they speak.
Bending is not about just pushing/pulling a string sideways. It is about targeting an intended specific pitch and having complete control of the transition throughout.

I'm not rating the concept because well, it's been done to death. I'm also not giving you 5 to everything because I decided to speak my mind rather than just pat on the back.

Pharmakeus has a good gritty dylan-y voice that suits the style indeed. Your guitar tone is spot on but you got too many "safe" notes defining your licks. They could use a little more tension from time to time.

Avant-guarde aboriginal music meets the american south, the far west and the Batican in a horror/thriller movie setting? smiley

It's awesomely absurd! It took me by surprise more than once.
But I'm partial to a good whacka rythm, so... And I love the sound you used for the slide part.


I should find me some random loops and do that too. Sounds like great fun.

I think the distorted guitar has a little too much "hair" for this tune.
Sweet dreamy melody smiley
Not The Way It Is by Zombre 8 months ago

Holy smokes man! The tune is perfect! Hey, I heard a lick from the big get-together Gcom jam from last year. I thought you were supposed to be original? Just teasing ya man! And you CAN sing! Even if you're not Coverdale, you got a good voice and can hold a tune.
Strawberry Jam by ibzRG 8 months ago
hey, thanks for listening and commenting. Yes the end was abrupt. It wasn't how I planned to end but I dragged a few notes longer than I had planned (in order to get back on time without breaking up the recording into multiple sessions stitched together) so the backing ended sooner than I had planned. I liked the take however and decided to keep it anyway, rather than risk another take where something else would likely go wrong...

Hey Jeff, don;t be so hard on yourself. You worked a nice little groove that couples with the bass there and I love it.

The dynamics of the guitar remind of something Bjork might sing. Except I understand guitar much better than I understand Bjork smiley . The tune reeks of melancholy, beautifully made. Great example of less-is-more.

Haha, I can't believe you kept the idea I used for a title for my part.

This is the first time I'm hearing what you and farlow did with it.
Sidd, I love the combo of guitar tone and bass tone that you chose.

The mix turned out well balanced in volumes.
Also I love the order in which the parts appear. It gives the tune a certain feeling of evolution in theme from simpler to more complex and from more traditional to more modern and heavier.

Don't Stop - Micheal Jackson Remake by ThirdRail 10 months ago

The opening part (is that sweeps?) had me uncertain as to what I was about to listen to but then it settles in. It's quite well done and heavy. Of course, I have no idea what the original is like so... Nice job. I'd blow my brains off if I had to sync 5 guitar tracks of myself.

I think the bass could be less up front.

6 or possibly more depends on how many people submit something.

I would have liked the funk to be on the guitar side of the mix. I like your tone and chops (taken out of of context), but it just rubs me wrong in this song.
Slap was a nice touch.
First TIme Blues by ibzRG 2 years ago
I do have a harmonica but I can't play it the blues way, with the bends and stuff. Occasionally I remember to practice the harmonica too.
A Empty Soul by TheAlchemist 2 years ago
If you're not gonna sing over it, you might at least try to simulate some with a lead or something. Barebones acoustic rythm for a few mminutes bores me, as cool as the structure may be.

Cool.
The Interzone by TheAlchemist 2 years ago
Bit cheesy, I'm not sure what I think of it. Probably what ezstyle said. It'd be nice to have some chords and some more variety in there. Your sound makes me think of Iommi for some reason, also lacks a little bit in reverb.

Guitar.com proposed theme backing track by JTC 2 years ago
I'm on it. Excellent riffage, it be a shame to sit this one out as I originally intented.
helloween noodling by ibzRG 2 years ago
Kinda. I don't play drums and I suck at programming them on sequencing software. Plus everything is done without a metronome, so even if I tried to sequence drums for it later, it would only highlight some dreadful timing.
