Hey Nick Stipanitz, Wow, what an interesting song! Well produced and everything. Now, while I can appreciate your musicality here, for any instrumental submission I would be looking for a very light amount of movement in the groove and instruments. This track has a bit too much tempo, heavy drums, and movement in the c...

Hey again Echovayn, This is a difficult one, the song is fun but the vocals are not as raw as I like them. For any submission, I like a track that showcases dry vocals, even if there's a little bit of wet reverb or pitch correction. Dry vocals to me should be the most important aspect of the vocal track, whereas this o...

Hey there Dezaray Star, An interesting track here, with cool sound design! Though one of the first things I noticed right off the bat was that the final mix was overblown. Basically all that means on my end is that I was hoping for a better master on the track, specifically regarding clipping. Otherwise, you risk liter...

Hey Echovayn, For a rock sub, I'm looking for a classic rock approach on the drums and guitars, as well as the vocals. And while you had the guitars and drums that make for a great rock song, I think I simply just struggled to get into the vocals as they felt a little too operatic-metal inspired. They also seem to have...

Hey James MArsh, For a rock sub, I would have been looking for a more classic rock approach on the drums and guitars, leaning into a more traditional classic electric guitar approach - with aggressive though not poppy vocals, that match the classic rock sound. This track had more of an alt rock sound like Rage Against...

Hey Alex Saunders, This is a difficult one to figure out. For a rock sub, I would have been looking for a more classic rock approach on the drums and guitars, leaning into a more traditional electric guitar approach - avoiding incorporating other genres. This track has more of a pop-rock sound on the harmonies an singi...

Hey Ronin 888, While I can absolutely appreciate your artistry here, I would have avoided mixing together genres on this one. This song blends slow and sexy R&B, with autotuned vocal flows that definitely have a rap edge to them, making the song fall somewhere between a couple of playlists - ultimately not being a grea...

Hi Jangle Wave, It's so easy to acknowledge that this is a fun track, I mean everything from the wailing guitars to the smooth, sort of Michael Bublé tinged pop vocals, all of it feels lovely. The first thing that I noticed, though, was that right from the beginning, your guitars sounded like MIDI instruments. It defin...

Hey KIIX, Damn, this is a very good track with a catchy sound design. But I'm having a big hesitation about accepting it: for a pop sub, I'm looking for a strong acoustic performance overall - leaning into acoustic guitars and drums, while keeping the vocals clean and clear throughout. This track is missing these acous...

Hi Baldy Crawlers, I think you have such powerful vocals, and your live instrumental recording is very well produced, nice job on the production value here. However, for a song with soulful influence such as this, I'm really looking for darker, moodier chords and samples, not so much the Latin and/or upbeat instruments...
