neutronium76, very interesting!


Thanks. What stroke me most however was not the video itself but this comment:
''
I've been bullied for a large portion of my life and I'm so glad some people stepped in in this video. Gives me some hope for the future. I remember one time I got pulled off my bike by a group of girls who just started hitting me. Several people walked by while it happened and no one helped me. In some ways this can be worse than the bullying itself. To me it felt as if those people told me I wasn't worth helping.''

I had two very difficult days at work (intimidated, mocked, decieved and lost money because of it, etc) so when this video came to my attention I felt like posting it here.
However there is an even darker side to this: What if two (or even more people - a gang for example) fake-bullying each other to decieve innocent people and then attack him/her alltogether? That is why I think no single person should never-ever attempt to get involved and try to help. You can have a veery bad outcome out of this. Best is to try and call other people or the police IMHO smile

What do you think about this punk-rock song? https://soundcloud.com/sidusbrist/she-instrumental (i'm writing lyrics right now, and... yeah... the solo have many errors, and I don't like it so much)

This is good in general !

0:42 : the palm muted guitar and the arpeggio guitar are not in phase, the same for 1.37 (you should work more on rythme).

A lot of improvments can be done on the mix :

- How was it recorded ? There's a polluting reverb during the song, which makes the sound unclear.
- Everything is too much at the center. You should double your guitar track, put one at each side, and apply a phaser on one of it. That will let a space for the voice in the center.
- You should improve the bass, and place better the drums in the space.

The solo isn't so bad, I like it, it should stay on the center.

Sorry for being too critical, I wan't to help you.

Ask me anything if you have difficulties.




@Neutronium

Interresting video. One day, I was assaulted and robbed, and it was filmed by a surveillance camera, no one noticed it.
I came to the police station, but the phone number they gave me was not working.





Want some music of mine ? Please go here !

How about this one? It's got a nice ring, green seas, a tolerable atmosphere, and no corporate exploitation biggrin

How was it recorded ?

Audacity + Pedal + Guitar Pro (for bass and drums)

I know, it's a nightmare to record with Audacity, then I have some delay because of... something wacko

Thanks for suggestions, I will work on it wink

Annoying English phrase: "going forward". It seems to have spread like a virus in corporate talk.

Fix: s/going forward//g

Is anyone else bothered by these two words: "Premium" and "clientele"
They just stick out to me as pretentious and obnoxious examples of the business-world vernacular.

The last couple of days I have been trying out all the stuff Antza sent. Here are my thoughts

Hartwall Limonadi Apple


Teho Apple energy drink


RuisSipsi chips


Fazer chocolate


Euro Shopper Energy Drink


Xylitol Jenkki Spearmint gum


Fazer Missä X


Fazer Marianne Mint Chocolates


Suckers. Angry Bird and Missä X


Vita Nova


Kurko Sombrero long Drink


Tyrkisk Peber


Sisu Raikas


Super Salmiakki


Apteekin Salmiakki


Sisu Salmiakki Gum


Tar Candy


Salmiakki Chocolate


Tar Soda


Overall I would give this experience Vomit/10. It was totally worth it and I plan to send some stuff to Antza soon, hopefully he will post about it here as well.

Edit:

I forgot to post about one of the items. The reindeer meat, it basically tasted like big pepperoni and was pretty good.
