Your music is excellent - very good material, interesting arrangements and very clear recording quality. Overall comes across as very polished and professsional. Singing and guitar playing are quite impressive for a penguin. Keep it up!

Hi,

I agree 100% with varpa, the production quality on these recordings is VERY impressive, great vocals, great mixes and to me the bass guitar really has a perfect tone. Great stuff!

I agree with the above comments - lovely music Denis!

Do you play all the instruments and do the vocals too? I'd be even more impressed if thats the case!

Very good sound quality. Nice arranging. Sounds mature.

BTW what's the difference between Mixbus and Ardour?

varpa · Post by **varpa** » Mon Jan 20, 2014 1:07 am

Mixbus is basically a commercial version of Ardour from Harrison Consoles featuring built-in eq and compressors and fixed (mix)bus structure all designed to emulate a hardware console. Currently it only supports audio, not midi, but will likely include midi in the future (since Mixbus development follows Ardour).

I listened to your tracks on my auratone clone (I'm now trying to improve my old hifi speakers).... and I think vocal is too much dominating especially on track "you laugh" comparing it to Manu Chao tracks or others guys, instruments are to much backstaged and blurred, veiled, it not so apperent for me on headphones, I would try to fix it and I dunno how...
