Hi,

I'm new to the board and I'd really like some feedback on my song. It is called Past Times and fits the chillout genre quite well.

Sorry for the misleading topic, but enjoying a gin and tonic while listening to this song is not just a bad idea, but also a great suggestion.

Cheers!

What's the point in investing fortunes in gear to make your sounds sound good, or try to improve your recording sills if nobody is gonna hear them in good quality?

practically everyone is still on dialup so they won`t be able to hear your tracks at all without a lofi feed.

and they won`t bother with a 4+ meg dl either just to find out whether a tracks good or not.

ya thats the thing, i won't stream hi-fi on my 56k because it rebuffers like virtually every 3 seconds. If i want to listen to hi-fi, i would need to download it.

yeah..I didnt meant it 'that' harshly, but the point HERE is to just get..some comments...

of course you want the best version out there representin, but the bottom line is that a good song will sound good no matter what

I had a track up here of an Uberzone song...and it was 28/22 mono just like everyone elses and it sounded very good. amazingly good, which kinda shoved the "oh, its lofi so it doesnt sound good" argument out the door brutally and kicked it in the pants on the way out, then slammed the door.

a good mix with a good encoder will sound fine. sure you lose a bit, but honestly this one sounded quite solid still

so..you CAN get a decent sound in lofi mono. flat out truth

Thanks man, I guess you're all right. Not everybody has got fast internet lines and the idea is to get comments on your stuff. And I guess I was an ignorant snobb about this sound quality.

Cheers!
