Howdy, please check this out? I'm a one-man band, no-hit wonder and I think the bass is too loud, but I'm not sure.
Any mixing suggestions are appreciated. 
 
Nothing is as truly sad as an idea whose time has come. And, gone. I started this in 2012 and I work. . . really . . . slow.

Hi Tom,
 
Nice to hear something from you! This sounds great through headphones, really nice stereo spread and everything coming through clear and warm. Lovely elec piano sound in that breakdown, and I really like the arrangement there, lots of cool little details appearing. Good stuff, look forward to hearing more soon.

Cool song! I like the chord changes in the verse and it has a nice chorus...I won't comment on the mix until I listen on my main system later, but it sounds pretty good on this laptop...and that's a good sign.

Thanks much! I redesigned my new site a little so the song is up top. Mixing songs is, for me, more guesswork than knowledge at this point, so any observations are quite welcome! thanks, -Tom

Just listening now, just one small observation re your site a gain control would be nice came across a bit hot here for my Internet PC.
 
Sounds good reasonable well balanced perhaps the bass is a little loud but it sounds good.  The tune has some nice touches too.
 
Thanks for sharing.

Wow Tom, awesome!  I love your lyrics, ultra clever and lots of fun. :) :)
 
I don't think the bass is too loud.  I think everything is sounds great.  This is my new favorite song of the day!  Maybe tomorrow too...

A different kind of tune.  Nice to hear your music.  It's interesting that it seems like a bit of a change in genre during the song but it's really cool.  That is a good thing because it kept me interested throughout.  I like the guitar/bass harmony in that one part.  Interesting changes during the song which all fit.  Yeah, I like it.

I signed up for your music archive Tom, and have been listening to the various tracks.  I'm hearing retro folk/funk/rock fusion elements combining with your own special "Tom sauce".  Digging it!
 
I was able to find 3 "additional" tracks, plus the 7 in the archive.  Is it just those 10, or are there more that I may have missed?  Also, in my playlist, do you have an intended ordering for the songs?

Thanks much, fellow weekend warriors!
 
Wookie, the "volume control" is not an option on the "musician-friendly website builder" I use - Bandzoogle (it's kind of like Bandcamp I guess) so sorry if it was too hot when you played it . . . it might also be because my mix is overbaked with compression??? I dunno . . .
 
Walt, many thanks for taking the plunge! I am adding more to the Archive really soon and will sort out those "additional" tracks  :)    At this point, I would say there is no "correct track order" for the tunes in a playlist. More on that later!
 
Speaking of "correct order" - Walt, your CD is simply amazing. Incredible flow, incredible mixing chops . . . I will annoy everyone with a proper review of it VERY soon. 
 
Hey, Warren the Pug!!! Many thanks for the nice comments, and particularly about the quirky arrangement, which may not be to everyone's taste .  .  . but it is fun to violate expectations sometimes . . . actually, most times . . .
 
Ok, back to the virtual woodshed. Thanks again, I sure appreciate the mix comments in particular!
 
cheers,
-Tom

I agree with Wookie in that it comes across as being recorded a bit hot  (fuzzing out on my speakers).  But that's it!  I really like what you have done with this song.  The performance is good and I love the way that you introduce and retire the various instruments at various times.  Ya the song is a bit quirky but man this is quirky good.  The quirky makes it a treat to listen to.
 
Great job!!
