I've gone for a bit of a different style for this one, and I'm not sure how I feel about it. I honestly think it sounds a bit too much like another song, but I'm not going to say which one it is, I just want to see if others feel the same. Feedback is much appreciated! <3

hiya! popping in to say i found your songs via a community here and ive immediately subbed to your yt :D

honestly im a massive fan of both the autotuned and raw versions of the first song, and the messaging and lyrics in the second one are Incredible!!!

That means so much to me, thank you!!!

[alcinity]

lot of thoughts in my head needed to put them in a song

anyway this one is raw and i've steered away from autotune completely! <3 would love feedback

I really like your song! It’s giving pop punk/emo vibes, very nice.

My feedback is this: I’d love to hear more of your voice! I feel the mixing is a bit off and the guitars are a little loud, so it’s hard to hear what you’re saying. However, that is common in early FOB and other similar bands, so if that’s part of the style you’re going for then keep it that way. :)

I did notice a vocal scoop/uncertainty maybe at the beginning of the word “air” (in the phrase “in the air”). That could also be the Melodyne/voice tuning software. I’ve had producers who just do a blanket “correction” over the song and then go back in later to adjust wrong notes, and I’ve had producers who just analyze the vocal line and go in to fix notes that are slightly sharp/flat. I much prefer the latter, as the former creates a sort of “autotuned” sound. Again, though, that is also a cool effect depending on the style of the song.

Excited to hear more stuff from you! 💛

No I was actually personally disappointed with the amount of autotune in the finale song, I will be going forward and steering away from it. Thank you so so much, as well, I really appreciate it! <3 And yes!! Midwestern emo was my inspiration! I'm glad it's came across!

Just wanna preface this, I'm not very good with musical terms and I don't have much of a "musician's ear" if that makes sense. So if my feedback is unhelpful, I'm really sorry. I listened to Petrichor, and I think it's good. Although, I noticed that you have some kind of autotune or voice changer that becomes very distracting after a little bit. Best examples I have for that are at 0:11, 0:30, and 1:08. Honestly, it's pretty good for your first song. You should keep making more music.

I completely agree, my producer put a bit too much autotune for my liking but I felt too bad to say anything at the time when I should have. Going forward I'll change this. I do have a raw version of Petrichor processing though so it should be up soon! Thank you so much, too!

i'd really like honest feedback on this, it's my first song
