Thank you - I appreciate that!

That’s true no one talks about them! I have to give my ex credit as I was newly saved and she suggested them when I was looking for something that would hold up to the secular stuff I liked. I heard the Them CD first and it’s my favorite of theirs (not a fan of the later output as much)...

Appreciate the kind words! And - have to say again - great ears! "Fight" by Pray for Rain is my favorite song of theirs and definitely the inspiration for the vibe of this track.

So in the spirit of the thread, here's the title track from my album. Honesty is paramount, so no worries if you don't enjoy it. https://on.soundcloud.com/UZzmcyxEjeNV6AkS7

I'm keeping this close to my vest, as mentioned. But I will share the title track if it helps. Not the best or worst of the album (at least in my opinion) but it helps set the stage. https://on.soundcloud.com/UZzmcyxEjeNV6AkS7

I appreciate it Magenta. I followed the link - most the video examples are gone, but I did see one. It is nice, but not what I'm going for. I'm hoping to get a video that corresponds to the story being told, so there's characters in it as well as scenery. Probably too much to ask.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom! As I think about the recording, I think I did end up (would have to confirm, though) using the same reverb on his main and harmony vocals but a different one on the echo vocal. I think the bigger issue is that he did three different takes of the main vocal at...

Makes sense! I'm sure this will come as no surprise, but after I initially mixed it, I saw a "5 things you're doing wrong when mixing" and watched it. I was doing 4 of them - made sense to me when I did it, but obviously made a lot more sense when I learned the correct way. Steep learning curve

Appreciare the input! So I do have Slate VSX Headphones which simulate rooms (well reviewed - but everyone has opinions) and it sounded good (to me) in most the rooms as well as my car. I didn’t use the same reverbs over the whole track, I varied them to differentiate -as mentioned - I don’t...

Over this summer I used AI mastering software to master an album I made (Bricklayer) as kind of a musical tract. I want to find someone that can create a video to go with it so it can be used as an outreach tool (kind of a movie night) in churches. It's on boombox.io and I don't want my ex to...

Hello I have a musician friend (who happens to be an atheist after an upbringing from a mother who wouldn't let him listen to secular music) who challenged me to make an album after having a wife leave and subsequently alienate my children. He said "You've been through a lot, you should write...

Praying God is with you working all things for your good, whatever you're going through!

Hello everyone. I had a close friend lead me in a prayer to accept Christ at age 8 - I didn't really understand, but I believe God has been with me since then. I formally became a Christian in 2000. I play guitar on my church worship team, am married with five children (four mine...
