Hi,

I don't usually get much response on this forum - but I'll try again

I've got a new song out. It's called "Upper Cut" - you can check it out here:
http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=11686434

I call it Pop/Rock - but I never know what category to call things. It's just streamed off Soundclick - nothing to download and you don't need to buy anything - I'm just looking for feedback.

It features the usual suspects: (for me)
Superior Drums
Trilian Elec Bass
Omnisphere
VB3
real Strat through a POD XT
general nonsense...

Any comments welcome

Thanks.

Some cool freakish sounds and flourishes. Beats sounds good, get the job done.

good combination of acustic and synth sounds, drums are very nice as expected from superior drums. pop-rock sounds about right. nice guitar playing too... good job!

Wow, thanks a lot for listening and for the comments (layzer, mr president and fate). Yes Superior is a great tool.

Crisp snare, am betting you used a good mic no???

Well, the guys at Toontrack did!

I cant believe how realistic and good the software is getting, Ive been working alot with electronic drums lately and im gonna definitely have to dig a proper drum rompler out.

Yeah - I love Superior. You start with some MIDI files played by decent drummers, then you edit them to fit what you're working with - then you have your raw drum parts. Add a little channel strip voo doo (compression, eq, tape saturation) and it sounds pretty good

This is a great track, love the energy. Some very nice guitar playing there & I like the almost glitch like FX interspersed here & there with guitar. Nice work
