Hi there
I really like your actual singing voice, and True friend is quite relaxing.
However (heres where I'll be hated - well, hated further) I do think that the harmonics of True Friend could do with being tightened up, and there was a slight problem with tuning in there. Also although very nice, your voice could do with slightly better enunciation, or perhaps the mic/recorded be revised - I wanted to hear better what you were singing.
Blue Waves - not my sort of thing, though quite good. Thought again that the instruments need tightened up a bit - theres the odd delay and missed quarter beat (just because I'm a bit OCD about music) I thought perhaps timing could have been improved. Enunciation and lyrics were much easier to grasp though.
How do you work? alone? with PA? Band?
Thanks for letting me listen :) |

Ahh yes its the sort of trial-and-error fashion isn't it? But the things you can acheive even via that method can be pretty spectacular. I used to compose orchestra-style peices of modern influence and thats how I started out. Mind you haven't done it in years.... |

I would agree with most of what he said. There is some definite tightening that could happen on all the instruments and vocal parts but I think you have a lovely voice and I am impressed that you are 16. I think you could have some great songs if you keep growing and challenging yourself. |

I didn't think it was negative- just constructive. I was thinking similar critiques but wasn't quite sure how to phrase it. I didn't want to hurt her feelings because I think she does have some talent. So I was glad you said it and I could just go, yeah, I agree! |
