Ship on Land

Beautiful vocal tone and singing. Love the little riffs and runs and the change in minor and major in the chords but the root to fifth bass pattern and the watz sound a bit too old school and traditional to my ears and lists. I miss some more modern osunding elemets. Also the master sounds a bit overcompressed to my ears and lists. Still beautiful songwriting and lyrics. I also miss a bit more power in the chorus. Still cool energy. Best wishes

Hi! Thanks for sending this song. I enjoyed its lyrics and the expressive voice but for my playlists I focus on a bit grittier / darker in theme and mood songs. Keep it up!

Hey there, I like the organic feel to it, and the production quality is well done, all elements are in nice balance. It's got a bouncy feel to it, as well. I dig it, but I'd like to hear a bit of a strange or unique take on one or more elements of the song, to really help it catch the passive playlist listener and reel them in. But of course, the singing and lyrics are solid, the musicianship top notch, no doubt there. Best to you!

Hey there! Thank for sharing your track with me. However, I think I'll have to decline your submission for now, as I think this track is a bit too resonant in terms of processing for each aspect. Maybe giving more emphasis to the cohesion of each elements can bring more quality to this one thank you for sharing this one with me Wishing you the best!

Hola. La canción desde su inicio demuestra una introducción bien country, con sonidos alargados de guitarras características de este género. La vocalización en sus notas tiene un registro perfecto con un timbre también característico del género, la intensidad va en aumento y puede descender de forma progresiva y al ser tan envolvente su instrumentalización y melodía, lo misma se siente intensa. Por el momento no será incorporada por estar buscando melodías algo más ásperas pero es una muy buena producción. Saludos cordiales!

Ship on Land is a future release that comes across as thoughtful with a certain touch of melancholy in its mood and lyrics. Although it manages to move the listener with its beautiful message, it doesn’t seem to align with the cheerful and lively vibe that I usually prioritize. So, thank you very much for sharing your ideas, but this time I had to pass. I miss an authentic and natural voice, less artificial.

Hi Echovayn, the melody of the vocal has a memorable and catchy quality and the vocal worked beautifully with the romantic acoustic instrumental. Unfortunately though the audio quality sounded a bit too noisy and overall sounds very low-res in quality for my standards. I'm sorry to turn down your submission.

Thanks for sending this one over. The track opens with an interesting dynamic, and I think the way the rhythmic elements are handled gives the song a clear and attractive character. There’s good control in how those elements are introduced, which helps the production feel focused from the beginning. The vocals, however, could take a more active role within that structure. There are some strong phrases in the chorus that add a lot of personality, but they don’t return often enough to become a real reference point for the listener. Because of that, the voice sometimes feels more supportive than truly central to the track. It could be useful to bring some of those stronger chorus ideas back later, perhaps with a different delivery, harmony, or rhythmic variation. That would give the vocal identity more continuity without making the song repetitive, while also helping the strongest sections feel more connected and impactful. I think that limited vocal continuity is what stopped the song from fully reaching the level of connection I was looking for to approve it this time. There are already good ideas in place, so giving the voice more intention across the arrangement could make a noticeable difference. Thanks again for letting me hear the track, and I hope the next release gives us another chance to connect.

Hey there, thank you for sharing your song with me! I think that the tune had a really cool groove, well done with the feel that you have created, it was really interesting in my opinion. I think that the song offered a really nice groove, really liked this 3/4th time signature it was really interesting in my opinion. I think that you have some really cool ideas, well done with the feel that you have created, it was really interesting in my opinion, very well done with the overall mood. I think that you have some really interesting themes in your song very well done with the feel that you have created. For me however the song was just not as memorable this time unfortunately, I'm really sorry. Good luck with your submission!

Good day and thank you for sharing your song! A nice and clean production for sure! I like how you deliver the vocals early on - I believe this is good for audience retention. The strings in there are nice and energetic as well. I like the lyrics and how the song takes off a bit at 49 seconds - I like when this happens under 1 minute. The vocals themself are not my cup of tea though. Too many vocal effects on there.. All the best, R

Lovely production with just acoustic guitar. A nice short riff. Cool verse starting just with vocals and kick drum. However, I'm not interested in production in 6/8 or with shuffle groove. Moreover, I'm not interested in production that contains kick drum on each beat. This is why I'm passing this time. Of course, this is just my opinion.

hey there, thanks for sharing your song with us. Appreciate that. Beautiful melodies, strong foundation for a good country rock track. However, the mix and master sound very overcompressed and not natural... Keep refining your art!

No creo que tengas una mala canción, pero he echado de menos un estribillo que me conquista más. Te deseo buena suerte y espero poder ayudarte en próximas ocasiones

Hi Echovayn, This track is absolutely a beauty, it's got the up-tempo, folksy pop sound design and energy, but there's a glaring concern that I have about it: the vocals have a ton of processing on them. Either it's formant shifting, pitch correction, or some sort of plug-in that masks the raw vocal recording entirely. What I would've preferred as a clean vocal performance through and through. Cleaning up the vocals on a future submission would be key to being a closer consideration for placement with us next time around . You definitely have the talent for it and I'm excited to hear more!

Hi, thank you for sending this track! I like the warm, natural feel of the instrumentation, which gives the song a pleasant folk and country atmosphere. However, the vocal delivery feels a little too soft and understated for my taste, making it harder for the song to leave a lasting impression. I’m looking for a more distinctive vocal presence that brings out the emotion and gives the melody a stronger connection with the listener. Wishing you all the best with your music!

Hi Echovayn! Thanks for trusting me with your lovely track. The songwriting sound so interesting to listen to alongside the catchy melodies. I’m so sorry for declining because I noticed the mix of the guitars and drums felt a bit too bright and heavily polished for me. I’m actually looking for tracks that have warmth in the guitars, and a well balanced depth in the drums, with a smoother cymbal mix, punchier kick, and crisper snare tone. Wishing you all the best!
