Man this stuff is awesome! Are these all originals?
Last chance is this live or did you Record using the tracks? Either way I think the mix is great, exspecially for this genre it even sounds like it came from 'Back then'.
Devil race mix is not as good, your vocal could be a little louder. These arent the PS5 dums are they!
Rock around Same story as Devil race the vocal is not loud enough. Still awesome!
Haunted memory reminds me of surf music. Vocal could be a little brighter and abit louder.
All in all though this just great! Good Work! Cameron

Cameron, Thanks for the critique! Haunted Memory and Last Chances are original, the others are oldies. I recorded live to 2 tracks in a sound proof room, then added bass and backup vocals after. I did more of a dry mix, I prefer slap back echo on vocals and guitar.

Tom, "Last Chance" was really cool. Very pro sounding. Reminded me of some of the "Deep Purple" pick-me-up songs (lots of energy) except it was closer to jazz than rock. Very great songs. Stan

WOW! these are great. the king is dead, long live the king!!
what sort of clubs do you play in? they must go wild!
Are these all original songs?
haunted memories and rock around are my favourites. if i had to chose one then it would be hm or ra...maybe ra for the melodies, but i like them all..
the mix is generally fine. i dont think you can improve the quality of the enjoyment the listener gets by tweaking anything...yeah the vocal is lower in rock around than haunted for instance but i just turned them all up and had a big smile on my face!
so much energy and so tight. you are all great musicians.

Rob, Thanks! We play at various roots clubs, the place we were playing the most is closing in a week or so, hmmm did we have a hand in that? Our fav place to play is called "The Purple Orchid" its a real cool tiki lounge with hawiian shirts, easter island heads, awesome strong themed cocktails. Only Last Chance and Haunted Memory are originals, rock around is really "ollie vee" a Buddy Holly tune and the other is really "race with the devil" by Gene Vincent. Tom
