It's pretty cool but maybe u could take out a couple of those twisty-noises between phrases near the beginning and stuff. Nice playing

Good take. Is there a bass guitar or not? I don't think I heard it. Maybe that's why everything sounds too "trebly" - no mid and low frequencies. I would suggest to put rhythm guitar more behind, sometimes is louder than your solo. Well done anyway

Hi.Thanks for coments ..it was all like 80% improvisation with some bad sound and Zoom G2 drum machine:)..now a im trying to remake it in cubase with EzDrummer and ReValver MKII(have some prety sounds)And i dont have bassguitar here-only bad guitar sound:)

I think that composition is great, however, try to experiment little bit with instrumentation. Make the solo louder, or adjust the volume of other instruments.

Good job! I liked it

Nice use of the whammy bar, but for my taste I think it's a bit too repetitive.
You did a nice rhythm and chord change towards the end though. I'd like to hear more of those

PS. The mix is almost in mono. Try to experiment with the panning a bit

Agree about the panning being needed here,that riff is also begging to go to another key all the way through this.It does change pace at the end but keeps the same colour.I liked the eastern flavour semi tone stylings in your playing but it was too samey all the way through and it lacked dynamics

Its all a steep learning curve from recording,mixing and playing and I am sure you will nail it in the end:)
well done

i see a good start in there

Definately pretty cool. ALthough it needs to change keys for my liking and the volumes need to be worked with.

But the playing is awesome!!

I commend you uploading and having us critique it.
