Long Split Seconds by voXager 4 months ago
@Eido:

So you did recognize the EZD/DfH combo!

You're right about the guitars, I noticed that as soon as I started mixing. They're weaker than the guitars in the other songs somehow, although they were recorded and re-amped exactly the same way the others were. I hope this can be fixed later; if not, I know someone who'll enjoy having the opportunity to record this once again. Especially the shredding part smiley

@Eido:

Yep, I'm going to post the next draft, but it'll be some time, since there are four vocalists involved. Mixing of the drums is not optimal, but I'll leave the final mix to a pro mixing engineer when all songs have been fully recorded some time next year.

@Dustwood:

Perhaps because of the laser fire -- I specifically tried to make it sound like the laser guns (heat ray) in WotW smiley

@tokai2:

The effect applied is a Logic-internal plugin called "Bitcrusher". It basically downsamples any audio thrown at it.
I believe there are freeware VST/AU plugins for Windows and Mac that can do the same thing, but I couldn't name one from the top of my head.

@All:

Thanks for the positive feedback so far!

@Edolonia:

Thanks for your comment. In the meantime, I've experimented a little with the mix using your hints as a guide. I'm not going to post the result here, but it's in the D/L section of the voXager site (version 31). Not perferct yet (some distortion, can't really make it go away), but glued together much better now. Sibilance problem should be solved now, too.

@Herrsolera:

Thanks. I've listened to Ayreon a lot over the last few years, and I love "Dragon on the Sea". Lana Lane's voice is so beautiful. Pity that she and Arjen Lucassen don't like each other anymore smiley

There's a track listing -- 16 Songs, plus intro and extro -- and there's a story to be told over these 16 songs. However, I've never published the track listing anywhere.

Great ballad; I like the vocals and vocal harmonies a lot. The guitars are very well played. I only wish the drums would be a bit more present. Overall, the production is pretty good!

My Heart Will Go On (Celine Dion Cover) by Shred 1 year ago
Wow! So Celine actually agreed to this? She's cooler than I thought! smiley

It's nicely done, but still to schmalzy. More death, more black metal is needed here if you ask me...

Wow! Very cool!

I had just finished listening to Dimmu Borgir before I came here, so this song fits perfectly into my peaceful evening musings smiley

Very nicely produced!

Cheers

Growl by faelin 1 year ago
Cool riffing! Could need a little more variation, though. And some growling? smiley
Second Single From Aradia Enjoy by blackheart 1 year ago
Not bad! The female singer has a nice voice, but has certainly more potential. Give her something to sing! smiley The keyboard play is a little annoying (too simple). The grunting vocals are great. A little more change would be nice. Overall sound similar to Graveworm, but actually more interesting. I like it!

Reminds me of an intro by Hypocrisy. Cool!
Unto The Stars by voXager 1 year ago
Thanks for the comments! Yeah, Cradle and Maiden have certainly influenced the song, as well as Ayreon. There are a couple of more songs in the making; with any luck we'll record the next one by end of march.
