Early Mornings, Late Nights, and Long Roads

Hello,

I would be extremely grateful if you could give my EP a listen and I’d be more than happy to provide you with any answers or listen to any critique you may have.

Let me just tell you a bit about my dream: In a sentence, I’m willing to work myself to the bone in order to get my music out into the world and into the ears of as many people who resonate with it. I write music because I know the immense impact that it has had on my life and I want to be able to provide people with even a fraction of that nourishment for their soul.

On Love Like You right now. Um, I'm going to start by saying I like what you're working with here, my critiques are going to be smaller things because so far I'm hearing the backbone of a pretty good pop song here. Mainly I think your voice should go slightly lower in the mix. Right now it doesn't quite overpower the rest, but because of its volume you can hear the slight imperfections very clearly. I wouldn't drop it much deeper in the mix, but just a very little would go a long way to blending yourself with the music more. Structurally I feel like there's a solid structure, and the vocal melody definitely carries the song well.

On Constellations, love the guitar line, love the feel to it. I think on this track your voice is mixed much better into the track and sounds great. The biggest thing I would do is bring the percussion slightly higher in the mix since it gets buried a little under everything else going on. I think if I were writing it I would bring the percussion in earlier, possibly bring the throbbing bass in during the first chorus and adding more elements of percussion at the point you add the bass in after the first chorus. Everything sounds nice and warm though, and the build up to the last chorus works great.

On Someone Worth Loving, I think this is easily the strongest of the three tracks. everything sounds right where it should be. Not much else to say, I think this one is great.If I had to offer an actual critique it may be about the genre of everything. I know you've got the singer/songwriter/folkish vibe going on but I think during the last chorus for this one, a lightly distorted or overdriven guitar would sound great coming in then over the clean tone to further build up the intensity of the music.

Overall I think it sounds great, hope you get the attention you deserve.
