Anyone?

What kind of 'feedback' are you looking for?

[jtees]

At this stage I'm only really looking for microphone feedback, however if you only have guitar pick-up feedback then that should be ok too.

Was that last bit a joke? I almost don't get it. If you want mic feedback then turn it up too loud. If you want pickup feedback then stand too close to your amp. As for my thoughts on your song, I like the San Andreas vibe but I don't like the snoring. It's, well it's snoring. The bass almost finds its way out of time here and there, and it has sort of a nasally tone which is fine but it almost seems out of place with the vibe of the song. I hear a more scooped sound that would compliment the kick drum and make you feel the beat. This kind of music needs vocals to be more interesting, or make it way shorter. I really like the synth melodies though.

EDIT: Didn't mean to sound so snotty. It's not bad but it does go on and on with very little variation.

i like it?

i think the synths' in the middle get a bit wonky though; kind of coming in and out if that makes sense? makes me want some danger mouse vox ontop!! the transition to the end is a bit weird. feels like a seperate song

Thanks for the feedback guys much appreciated.

Originally I liked the tone of the bass but now that you mention it... it doesn't really suit the rest of the other elements, thanks for pointing that out. As for no variation, There actually is quite a bit of variation however it's obviously too subtle, I was trying something different with the arrangement, so that it built throughout the whole song then climaxed towards the end. Now after many listens I understand how it gets boring, Honestly I think it only really gets interesting in the last minute and half.

I think I'll take it back to the drawing board arrangement wise and change the bass tone, and yes I agree, it needs vocals.
I dont want to give up with this one cause I believe it's got potential.

Any further advice on the arrangement or any other factors would be much appreciated.

Thanks

ps yes my last comment was a joke, sorry I'm not very funny
