My friend who happens to be my supervisor sent me this message on Facebook asking what happened yesterday and why the case was empty of cryos and in general sounding like a supervisor for the first time ever. He asked me what I did and the other guys I was working with.
I sent him three and a half completely maxed out messages providing my full day in extreme detail. If you've never hit the max size of a Facebook message, it's fucking long.
i like the synth work. that part around 1:00 sounded kinda off time and kinda barren. if the drum samples were prater it might have sounded fuller. how did you sequence the drums? not to be mean but it was kinda sloppy.

I did it all free playing. I didn't quantize or anything because I was playing on the off beat a lot, and it complicated things. If I had more time to work on this, I'd fix the drums. But the project is due tomorrow, so this is the best I got.
The whole song got off from my click at the bridge too. So I just went off the guitar.
We started off wanting to do like an acoustic grunge/radio rock song. "Down In a Hole" was our main inspiration. But when I sat down to write, I wrote this - basically a folky acoustic doom song. So I wrote depressing lyrics to follow.
The synth and piano were actually my partner. I did everything else.
Aside from the drums, I thought it was pretty good. Kinda has a Neurosis kinda vibe to it. My only real issue aside from the drums being to thin and kinda off beat was that I kinda expected the end to build into more of an explosion than a fade. It kinda sounds like the end to a series of songs
I'm sorry but I'm drunk as shit and I gotta be ignorant right now.
I jus wanna know how you got the damn nerve to comment on the quality of my mixes when you supposedly an engineer workin in a professional studio and that sad ass shit is the result.
I don't even give a shit about the song itself cause it ain't my thing so I'd never fuck wit it, but when it comes to the quality of the mix, goddamn you got some GRAPES boy.

1. You dont mix your own shit. You pay someone to do it.
2. This was done in my room, not a pro studio. And it was done by myself.
3. The whole reason Im going to school is to learn how to do this properly. This is for my demo production class. I'm not perfect yet, but my mixing abilities have improved a lot since my first recordings.
4. Because my mixes aren't perfect, I can't comment or critique yours? Makes sense.

What happens when you do a project last minute.

Didnt you just go through paying a guy to mix your shit because you sucked at it?
