..not to be rude..(and I apologize in advance..because I will)
I think youre a fucking tactless blowhard with no taste, actually. But not rude at all.
I've listened to it... and I dislike it..
Nobody asked if you liked it. Who the fuck do you think you are?
first off ..it's got no MIDDLE...
not supposed to have a "middle." If I wanted it to have a "middle," I'd have jolly well put one in there.
everything seems left or right.
there's this annyoing panning from side to side all the time..it's enough to drive a man crazy !
Then he shouldn't listen. It was not a requirement. I think you can find some gangsta rap that'll make you feel better on youtube.
the guitar sound is dry/stale/boring..
Yeah, sure. Post a clip of YOUR guitar playing, Jimi.
the drums have no groove whatsoever..
au contraire.
it's a drum machine..yes..
no, it' software. Ableton software.
but you didn't even try/don't know to make it sound good...
I was a drummer for years. I put down a nice drum software groove. If I'd wanted a real drum track, I'd have fucking recorded one. give us a ring when you've figured out the hi-hat part.
there's simply nothing there.. just a guitar jamming on some unattended dry loop
you're right about the "jamming" part, at least. And that's exactly what I wanted. To show morons like you that an amatuer like me can play them the fuck under the table.
you've got a long way..
fer sure. Difference between you and me, asshole, is that I'll get there, because I don't waste my time offering unsolicited opinions to complete strangers. I make things.
overall it sounds bad even for a demo..
...(I'd just be repeating myself).
loops are fine by me .. but not in this form
(meaning : you didn't really do anything except play guitar over them)
Well, that's how someone who's never made an original piece of music would see it.
I thought I would do some critical listening .. but this is a joke..
You can't listen, you're too busy running your critical, unthinking, insecure mouth.
you have much to learn.. and you're on the right track..
Iggy Pop (you can google it, junior) said, "if you believe 'em when they say they like you, you'll have to believe 'em when they say you suck." and vice versa.
(because it sounds horrible and you acknowledge that and want to make it sound good)
The accomplished MUSICIANS I've circulated it among have responded favorably at the right things. I won't quote them because it will just make you more irrational with jealousy. The mix isn't up to my standards -- after all, I've never mixed a fucking thing before, and this little project is the first thing I've ever done in Ableton. But that was the point of this thread -- to elicit intelligent feedback about mixing -- not pretentious, unsolicited, useless self-aggrandizing blather.
but you better start at basics.. you started at end...
...umm...uhh...umm...what ever.
there is much reading material .. and loads of tutorials on the web..
anything SPECIFIC..
Good, you go read it, junior. I've got music to make.
and I plus many other forum users will gladly help you out
many have.
hope I wasn't too rough...that is all.
don't flatter yourself, junior. i relish putting loudmouths in their place.
So you started a post with an attention grabbing headline asking for advice as to why your mix doesn't sound like pink floyds.
you then had 3 pages of people helping you out (their time not yours). then somebody gave you the best feedback ever (negative but honest feedback is worth way more than "dope track doooood") at which point you threw a shit fit and reviled yourself as a complete twat to the world
If you cant take negative feedback then maybe the whole music scene isn't for you.
As for not wanting a middle in your track could be a major starting block in realizing why you don't sound like pink floyd
read about mono compatibility.
my advise to you is don't ask for advice again if all you are going to be is rude. your reaction is so immature that your bathroom mirror is probably still covered in teenage spot puss... junior
The trouble is your head has been up your own arse for so long the toxins in your shit have started to digest your brains.
Complete prick!
