Members macle Posted December 16, 2003 Members Share Posted December 16, 2003 Hi, I posted a couple songs here a while ago, thought I'd post a new one. It's a rough demo, no effects or EQ or anything. http://www.nowhereradio.com/macle/singles Any feedback would be great... Thanks a lot. macle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members xerosleep Posted December 18, 2003 Members Share Posted December 18, 2003 Sounds like the beatles. Like totally like them. It's very good though. Catchy and professional. I could totally see someone wanting this in a movie or sitcom or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members confuseitall Posted December 18, 2003 Members Share Posted December 18, 2003 Very well produced and arranged! I agree it's very beatles, which might be your ticket to the "Next Big Thing that sounds like that Old thing" ride. I'd like to hear more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members paraphonic Posted December 21, 2003 Members Share Posted December 21, 2003 I like it. I really like it. More power to you. For the sake of your survival, write something with some edge.I have been waiting for a new beatles for a long time. Please forgive the comparison to the Beatles. That is a complement. Most Beatles singles, were edgy, till they could write they're own ticket and be accepted for a diversified style. Write more. paraphonic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members zinzin Posted December 22, 2003 Members Share Posted December 22, 2003 hi macle,i am an old fan of yours. i have searched for all your songs on the net and burned myself an Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members underground Posted December 22, 2003 Members Share Posted December 22, 2003 That's great, especially the vocal (background stuff is amazing). I'm listening at school on a pair of really crap headphones, so I can't hear the electric part very well, sounds quiet and kind of mushy compared to the rest (which sounds fab), but that could be the headphones. Awesome job, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members just_ashley Posted December 23, 2003 Members Share Posted December 23, 2003 i like it! it just has a really nice happy 60's vibe. nice one. although my girlfriend did think it was the beatles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 What else can I say: "Life Is Good" is GREAT! I'll be listening to my radio for your next hit.Keep writing,Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kwakatak Posted December 27, 2003 Members Share Posted December 27, 2003 :eek: Awesome! If that's rough then you must be a perfectionist because I would not change a thing! That is much better than any over-produced pre-packaged pop song that has come out in the last 30 years. Led Zeppelin recorded their first album in something like 30 hours and look how far they went! BTW, I am listening to this song for the second time and may go for a third! I've had a rough week and this song picked my spirits up in just a few seconds! Keep up the good work!

Members macle Posted December 27, 2003 Author Members Share Posted December 27, 2003 Charles French-Okay, no problem, let me know what you think. xerosleep-Thanks a lot. Sure would be great if someone put this in a movie or sitcom or something, that would solve a lot of problems... confuseitall-Thanks very much. I did have a bunch of other stuff up before, but I sort of got tired of it, so this is it for now. Thanks again. paraphonic-Thanks a lot. I don't mind comparisons to the Beatles at all. Not sure what you mean by edgy exactly?Thanks very much for checking out the song. zinzin- Hi zinzin, how ya doing! That is so cool that you burned your own CD. Really amazing that you would like this stuff that much. No record deal, but haven't really been trying. Hopefully, a real mix will fill in that 1%. This is literally a 5 minute mix. On the other hand, I'm trying to go in a simpler style, less keyboard stuff, etc., so maybe that is the missing 1%. Either way, thanks very much, really very nice of you. underground-Thanks. It's weird how different things can sound on different set-ups, headphones, etc. When I do a proper mix, hopefully there will be a better balance between the vocals and electrics and stuff. Thanks again. just_ashley-Thank you. You're girlfriend thought it was actually The Beatles? Well, that's pretty cool! ImJustMe-Alright, thanks! wooderson-Thank you. Always great when someone notices a bit of lyric. I appreciate that. TaoManna Don-Cool man, thank you! kwakatak- I've had a rough week and this song picked my spirits up in just a few seconds! wow....to have any sort of affect like that with something i did, well that's what it's all about. Really nice of you to say. Thanks a lot. Your comments, and everyone's, have really picked myspirits up! macle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wooderson Posted December 27, 2003 Members Share Posted December 27, 2003 I already asked Zinzin if I could get a copy of that cd. Where else on the net can I find some of your songs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members macle Posted January 6, 2004 Author Members Share Posted January 6, 2004 wooderson-if zinzin sends you a CD, that's pretty much most of the songs at this point.

Members sva musician Posted January 7, 2004 Members Share Posted January 7, 2004 alright, well here is the deal. well recorded and sounds very good! maddd props for that. however, it IS the beatles and that's not too cool. i dig it and put it in my playlist, but you if guys did you own thing you could get somewhere. everything else is cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members macle Posted January 8, 2004 Author Members Share Posted January 8, 2004 sva musician-Thanks. There are no guys, it's just me. I suppose it's too Beatley, a few people have said that. I sort of can't help it. On the bright side, at least I'm not copying Blink 182 or something . macle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members aneurysm26 Posted January 11, 2004 Members Share Posted January 11, 2004 Macle that is awesome. Everything sounds great. Wonderful production. Do you record yourself, or do you go to a studio? Just out of curiosity, where are you from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members macle Posted January 12, 2004 Author Members Share Posted January 12, 2004 just_ashley-Thanks for that Ashley ! zinzin- The girl is still here , I just happened to do this one, and a few others, on my own. We are working on some new stuff, but we're not playing live (yet). Thanks again zinzin! aneurysm26-Thanks! Recorded at home, in my bedroom. I'm in California, unfortunately .

Every single one of us has influences which show through in our music, sometimes stronger than others. To say that allowing your influences to show through is like doing covers shows a lack of understanding of the nature of music. Everything is derivative. There are only 12 notes, and chances are that the way you just put them together is not totally new and original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
