it's me and a friend. keyboard and sung female vocals are her. drums and rap is me. it didnt start out as a serious track. there are some mistakes. and it's still one of my first hiphopish attempts. listen anyway. what about my raps? are they wack? it's like the first time i recorded me rapping. and what about the singing? |

nice background, but you need to do stuff with the vocals.. hard to make parts of it out and there's clipping on the chicks voice. re-recording this and doing it in your native language (I'm guessing german from your nick) would be better, I think... |

if you are indeed english speaking, I'm sorry, but then that's just a testament to how badly recorded the vocals are. one more tip. it sounds like you're holding the mic too close to your mouth to compensate for having to keep your voice down for some reason. just step back and use your voice more.. use the stomach. |

that's what i thought, too. drums + keyboard are nice, vocals have their weak points. what do you exactly mean with "hard to make parts of it out"? considering the rap. well, it wasn't a very serious attempt, so i didnt bother writing my own lines but rapped some kool keith stuff. |

|
well.. in parts of your rap I just couldn't make out which word you were saying... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, yes. i had to keep my voice down. and i am german speaking. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
ah, okay. |
||||||||
|
|

hehe.. I've done that, and it's always easy to spot. just re-record when you don't have to keep your voice down and don't be afraid to step back and shout the words out (as long as you keep the peaks below "clip"). also, use a mic-stand and a pop-filter (if you haven't got one, those felt-like things that are in front of speaker-elements work just fine!). |

good song, baaaaad vocals. |

didn't try to sound mean there, it's just that your using a low quality mic and the excessive 'mother fucking' got a little annoying. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
thanks for your advice. i'll try to do it again considering your indications. and thx for listening, too. |

yess, it's a bit much motherfucker / motherfucking / fucking. that's what kool keiths lyrics said. hm. i never really tried to record my own vocals before. i didnt figure out yet how to do it in the right way. thx for listening! |

rap in german instead with better mic quality and you could have a solid track :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
which mic you got? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
phew. there's no imprint on the mic anymore. it was the cheapest one i got in music store 3 years ago. about 20 euros. i used it to record acoustic guitar playing. like i said, i never really did vocal stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm.. ok... you should look into getting a new one then. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
and the rap lyrics are stolen! hehe that's a dr dooom (kool keith) track. shame on you! :) my true feelings about this track: the production sucks, the song sucks. the only thing i liked was the girl's vocal bit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, i think if i try a bit around with the settings i can achieve a recording of better quality. but it's not a very good microphone, either. |
||||||||
|

|
|
"alle ladies come and bounce mit uns" heh.. just try something in german too... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe. as for my part i'm not very much into writing lyrics. i tried to rap now and i'll try to do it again considering the advice but all in all i dont think i'll stick to doing vocals actually. |
