http://www.myspace.com/admiralapricot"Pop Pop Fizz Fizz" and "Sexually Dyslexic." I deleted the last thread because I got plenty of suggestions on how to make the songs sound better to my ears, and since those mp3's weren't final anyways. I like the recordings more now, and I hope everyone else does to. I'm still sticking with my "less is more" theory.
Anywho, I shall now start on two more songs, I'll probably use a blue box on one to please the low-end hungry people.
Let me know if you like the songs.

Sexually Dislexic sounds a lot like some Nirvana song whose name I can't remember.

I liked the premise of "Pop Pop Fizz Fizz," but "Sexually Dyslexic" sounded too much like clipping for my tastes. I liked the lo-fi tinniness of the recordings. What were the mics and the DAW?

I didn't care for the vocals on Sexually Dyslexic that much.
I like the song just don't like that style of vocals.
I kind of think they are overdone.
Ok I'll shut up because you 'have enough fuzz pedals to blow my head off'.

I hear where you're coming from MM. It's a very split song among those who lsiten to it, some love it and some can't get into it. Sometimes even I can't vibe with it, but other times it suits me perfectly.

Guitar is recorded with a Peavey PVi2 microphone.... and so were the vocals. We used a different mic for drums.... I don't know what it was though. And I have no clue what a DAW is.

DAW = Digital Audio Workstation. In other words, what you used to get all the tracks synchronized, edited, and whatnot (Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, Mackie, etc).

A combo of Cakewalk Music Creator 4 and Audacity. I had Adobe Audition which would've been preference but it wasn't working right that day.

However its working now, so hopefully the guitar tracks in the next two songs will sound at least a wee bit better.
