    Been in the writing mood lately and need some constructive criticism. I'm definitely not a singer and these would actually be the first time recording vocals for me. So here is what I've been working on lately...





    Let me know what you guys think
    And if there are any guitar aficionados out there I have more guitar videos on my Instagram at aaron_aguirre90

    Very nice stuff! You need a time machine to go back about 40 years. :)

    It's cool stuff but turn the hi-hat down for the love of jeebus. A lot. Idk if that's drowning out the vocals but they could use a boost, too muddy in the mix.

    I like the songs though

    I know nothing of drums so all I do is transfer the guitar pro midi into a vst and call it a day lol I also know nothing on recording, all songs were on the whim recorded through the mic on my phone

    Hey Little Hummingbird has the most potential to me. Overall, sad to say the vocals seem off key a little too often and the music seems a bit jumbled. I heard like a blip of a sixties type sound like The Animals and then like a brooding kind of theme. Perhaps still searching for your sound?

    Props for putting yourself out there though. Takes guts. ;)

    Yeah I'm more of a guitarist and vocals is definitely not my forte. Sound wise I'm still exploring, I'm mostly into metal so writing in a different genre is foreign to me

    Original song I made a couple of years back, just decided to polish it up a bit. Pretty simple to say the least. I don’t really know much about drums, so I don’t even know if they even sound good lol

    The first 2 songs are not really my style or what I prefer to listen to. Humming Bird was good. Neo Folk good and reminded me of something you would hear in a movie. I'm Back is really good. I did not really care for the part where it slowed down around the two minute mark. Still it was really good and well deserved the woooo at the end.
