--------[Here is the demo with this great song]--------

cover : http://ohmygibs.free.fr/mp3/cousinssong.mp3

mod : http://amp.dascene.net/downmod.php?index=39436

the cover is supposed to loop like the mp3, if you have no fade-out on your mp3 player...

cheers

Great overall tune !

Love the guitar work..

Drums sound a bit sharp-ish to me.. (might be the headphones though)

All in all a great tune.. captures the feel of te mod quite well (played both 3 times now)..

Ah, it's the music of this Megaforce-Demo.
Liked it very much, too.
Gibs: You have to work on your mixing skills. Again everything sounds so harsh, it immediately makes me turn down the volume! The synth sound almost sounds like unwanted distortion. The drums sound somekind of hollow, as if recorded thru a tube or something. Remember what I told you about drum programming, you definitely can do better, I know it.
Sorry 'bout that. :wink: :cheers:

This is the true.
So it makes me progress in mix & mastering...
I have uploaded a new bounce...

Listened to take two..
Does sound better..

Still a bit shrill (might be the correct word) drums but all in all a keeper..

I like it a lot.. Be sure to warn me on updates..

Sorry I couldn't be more helpfull..

I played the tune for some of my co-workers and they were wondering how were the guitar parts done? Real Guitar or VST?

real guitars...

I wanted to sound soft, because here most of listeners don't like metal...so I have added lot of chorus so guitar sound synthetic...

but rythm guitars, lead guitar, and even bass guitar are recorded live (not sequenced)

Great stuff. :)

I'm always listening to tunes that you guys share here and a lot of my co-workers like some of the tunes and wonder where I got them from and I have to explain. I know these awesome bunch of People from the U.K. who always blow my socks off with great tunes.
