Just a track from my upcoming new demo.
Let me know what you think.

what does it mean "demo"?
for what purpose are making a demo?

good sounding guitars. got new strings, eh?

Hey. Gig on Thursday in front of representatives of Sony BMG, Universal Records, and SoCan I believe.
Required is a press kit & a demo. Here are my efforts.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah new strings + DIY pick up for guitar.
Made it out of a piezo element. Hard pan left.
Cardioid mic, hard pan right. Making a nice stereo sound for guitar.
Vocals are the usual, big diaphraghm cardioid.

This is a very nice piece.
I think the hard panning adds a nice effect.
Is this the demo?
Nice job,
I rated!

Hey, thanks! Yes this is one of the track on my demo.

The song sound pretty good...I like your vocal harm arrangement and general projection...
The eq on the guitar sounds a bit harsh on the higher mids ,almost like it lacks bottom...As far as I can tell your voice sits on the same frequencies so I think if you work the guitar on the lower end frequencies your voice my sit better in the mix.Sort of finding the sound pocket for both instruments without frequency clash..Just a suggestion..Good demo though!

I'm tellin ya, German technology, the best in the world!  Love it 

Like your song a lot, you need to practice/strengthen your voice, but good it is, keep on going what ever they think of your demo!
Yes the guitar is 'very' crisp.

I like a lot of top end in a more dry cut like this.  you can always take a little top end off easier than trying to add it.  Some of the vocal doubling is a little off in spots. You sing the song ok but could hit it with a little more conviction or confidence it is a little weak in spots. overall pretty good though  the song is excellent as far as writing and lyrics



I vote NOV battle song .

Good sound to the song. Could use some drums for sure.

You have a good enough voice, but it doesn't really stand out.
You really have to belt out those lyrics.

If the world is ending, I wanna know lol. So add some good raw emotion to the vocals and some drums etc to support the vocals and you have a great song.

I hear the same chord progression and strumming pattern through the whole song. Perhaps drop it to the background and get another guitar trac in there to spruce it up. Add a small instrumental in there just before chorus and build some momentum going into it.

Good work so far.
Good luck with your show!

Nice voice, nice guitar work. Not really sure if I liked the song. Maybe I'd like it more with a few more listens.
