FREE INITIAL SONG ANALYSIS!
Do You Have Any of These Problems With Your Music?
Why does my mix sound muddy?
Why does my song sound amateur?
Why don’t my vocals sound professional?
Why doesn’t my song sound finished?
Why doesn’t my song sound like a real record?
Why does my recording sound bad?
I need help finishing my song
I need help with my mix
I need help producing my song
I don’t know what’s wrong with my song
I want professional feedback on my song
I want a professional opinion on my song
Those may sound like completely different problems, but very often they are connected.
The real problem may be the arrangement. The vocal. The performance. The production. The sounds. The recording. The mix. Or sometimes the song itself is simply not communicating the way you think it is.
And when you have been working on the same song for weeks or months, it can become very difficult to hear it objectively.
That is where an experienced outside ear can help
Song Feedback From a Producer
I have spent decades producing, recording and mixing records, working with independent artists as well as major-label and internationally recognized artists.
When I listen to your song, I am not just listening for whether the kick drum needs more low end or the vocal needs more compression.
I am listening to the record as a whole.
Does the song hold your attention?
Does the chorus deliver?
Does the vocal feel convincing?
Is the arrangement helping the song or getting in the way?
Does the production support the artist?
Does the mix make the song feel finished?
And most importantly:
What is keeping this from sounding like the record you hear in your head?
Professional Song Feedback Reduces Guesswork
There is no shortage of opinions online.
Friends will give you opinions. Other musicians will give you opinions. People on social media will give you opinions.
What I provide is a professional song critique based on years of actually making records.
The goal is not to tear your song apart.
The goal is to identify what is working, what is not working, and what would make the biggest difference if you want to take the song further.
Sometimes the solution is simple.
Sometimes it needs a better vocal.
Sometimes it needs arrangement changes.
Sometimes the production is fighting the song.
Sometimes the recording is fine and the mix is the problem.
And sometimes you may be spending time and money fixing things that are not actually the problem.
Need Help Finishing a Song?
If you have reached the point where you are thinking:
“I know something is wrong, but I don’t know what it is,”
that is exactly the kind of situation where another experienced set of ears can be useful.
I can listen to what you have now and help you determine the next step.
That may mean making a few changes yourself.
It may mean bringing the song in for production, recording, vocal work or mixing.
Or it may mean leaving most of it alone and fixing the one thing that is actually holding the record back.
You do not necessarily need more gear, more plug-ins or another month of tweaking.
You may just need to know what the problem actually is.
Song Feedback From an Experienced Producer
I am a Los Angeles music producer, recording engineer and mixer with more than 25 years of professional experience and multiple Gold and Platinum record credits.
If you are looking for a song critique service, professional song feedback, a song evaluation, or a music producer consultation, send me the song and tell me what you are struggling with.
I will listen to it from the standpoint of a producer, engineer and mixer and help you identify what may be holding it back — whether that is the songwriting, arrangement, vocal, production, recording or mix.
Bring me the song, the demo, the rough vocal, the track, the idea, or the almost-finished record.
I will help you figure out what is working, what is missing, and what it may take to make the song feel finished, professional and competitive.
