[pixie_shimmer]: 11.Perfect Paradise

2005-05-29 Moonknight: Not bad, id recommend you try to record the guitar with a towel or something placed over the amp, that will filter part of the noise, its what I do with my band, you have some air noise in this from the guitars distortion and the drums, but your voice is very clear.

2005-05-29 pixie_shimmer: haha - this was recorded in an actual studio ^__^ And the guy there mixed it, not us. This is probably my least favourite song with my voice though >__< I wil try the towle thing though if I do any recording at home ^__^

2005-06-13 Moorn: o.O Meep. This is pretty heavy, I likes! It reminds me of... hm... Lacuna Coil, in a way.

2005-06-13 pixie_shimmer: I do not know what that is O__O
But thank youuuu!!!!!!!

2005-06-13 Consider me deleted: The vocal part is so low in parts that it gets hard to hear. In the first run of the chorus I think you go a tiny bit flat on the word "home". By the end of the first chorus, you've sped up slightly.
Despite my bitchy criticism, I think it's good. It's got great rhythm and a catchy tune. It's really good! I wish I had that kind of talent.

2005-06-14 pixie_shimmer: omg I know! hehe ^__^
about the flatness anyway. I cringe when I listen to this song. I have been told I look like I am physically in pain when I hear it :-P
One day, I hope to record a better version - acoustic of course, nothing fancy.
It was not bitchy criticism either ^__^ so shush :-P

2006-03-17 zoloftzantac: No Way! I thought the vocal mix was great, and it gives it a great raw/live quality. Very dynamic and intense. I love how it starts out as almost a whisper, almost like a long intro into the first chorus. I think the speed up feel there really works with the increase in vocal intensity. *I've listened to this song about 20 times in the last week* ;)

2006-03-20 pixie_shimmer: omgs :o that is quite a lot :p
I still can't stand it though :s I don't know what it must be if other people think it sounds ok :/
*bounces* ^_^
Thank you for the comments too :)

2006-06-26 conejo: omg, if you made an album of all of this music, i would buy it with absoloutley NO hesitation whatsoever!!!!! that is how good i think your music is. XD

2006-07-04 Vintage Rhymes and Valentines: I really like it but it needs more to it....it seems alittle empty. I think it needs less distortion on the guitar and more instruments like a lead guitar and a piano also it would sound better with a small guitar solo or lead break.

2006-07-09 zoloftzantac: I guess it is a matter of taste.

I listened to your song "This Girl I Know" and while I liked it, I thought the guitar and the piano and the voice was a little too much. It made it a little hard for me to follow the melody, I think sometimes less is more.

While I like Pixie's tone, I see what you mean, a little fine tweeking might add a lot.

I don't know about the guitar solo, I think the bridge is great.

I know what you mean when you say "a little empty" but to me it is like white space in a drawing, it can help you focus on the parts that the song writer wants you to focus on. I think the song expresses a lot of emotion and is very powerful.

*is still listening to it* ;)

2006-07-20 Vintage Rhymes and Valentines: Word to that. On the second listen I still think it needs less distortion but I really like it and I guess the emptiness kinda draws you in alittle.

2006-07-22 pixie_shimmer: aw :)

The bridge actually did have words. I don't remember them now though, except for the last line which was 'don't let her near'.

No solo :) I am not very comfortable with lead picking and whatnot. sorry x) I love the distortion on this too ! ^^

This discussion-ing is nice though :)
