GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ My First Own Reggae Song

Posted by: tflava Mar 23 2016, 11:35 AM

Hello guys,

What do you think of this song?
I arranged the chords, made the text, sing the song and played the guitar.
I recorded it in a studio from a friend and he produced it. Hé alsof made the drums, keyboard and Will mix i't at the end.

Thanks in advance!

Greetz Tim:)

Hi mate !

From my opinion I really liked it when the vocals came in.

I found that the VST sound a bit "midi" on the intro, but after that, the vocals came in, and it's great.

Great voice (especially for that kind of genre) and the melody fits great with the guitar.

Great job mate !

I liked it a lot! You have a great voice too! Optimistic lyrics and uniting ideas...Family: all that matters
Good job bro!

Hey Tim,

Congratulations with this optimistic song. It really gave me the reggae vibe of freedom, love and unity. Good lyrics and good singing too. Maybe keeping the doubling (or tripling) vocals only for the chorus would open the song more and also use some down/upstrokes here and there to give the guitarpart more life. Just a few thoughts mate !

Great job !!!! Nice Wah solo
