Re: Nur Ein XVI - Pareidolia

Pareidolia By Mandibles The sun is high There is laughter on the wind And where am I Above the playful din In my bedroom Where the friends that surround me Are the faces that I see They come and go as they please, My friends in the trees They come to play To fill the wiling hours Then fade away And ...

Re: Nur Ein XVI: Round One "Pareidolia"

Mandibles are in! Not sure if our final edit made it in under the wire, tho. When I was a kid, I used to se faces, figures, and shapes in things like tiles, rugs, and most often trees. I have a strong memory of looking out my window as a kid and seeing a fox, a face, a person in the branches of the ...

Re: Nur Ein XVI: Round Zero "Semiprecious"

At the risk of overhyping it, this may be one of the best mandibles songs yet. I (and the band) am super happy with it. Gradual repetition comes mainly in the form of form - post chorus riff happens once, later twice, later four times, chorus is repeated more each time, and them also in the graduall...

Re: SpinTunes 17 Round 3 RESULTS

Cybronica, I know yours wasn't the most positive review of my song, but it definitely made me feel the most seen. I agonized over whether to stick with my first pass of the chorus lyric because of that "baby back" connotation. Two days in, I was still singing it to myself and none of the ...

Buying my first set of Monitors, need recommendations

I’ve decide to to finally take the plunge and buy myself a set of monitor speakers (all the better to mix you with, my dear). I’m not really sure where to start, what works best, etc, so I was wondering: 1. What do y’all use? 2. What do you like about it? 3. What do you not like about it? 4. What pr...

Re: What was that? (Disembodied Voice reviews)

Words More words I appreciate this advice. I tried singing along to an instrumental melody last time, but I couldn't even get close to it. In this week's song, as usual, the vocal melody is developed intuitively, and I have no idea what notes I'm singing, or supposed to be singing. I think I may ha...

Re: What was that? (Disembodied Voice reviews)

Number two: you have a strong tendency in your vocals of smearing the pitches, i.e. at the start of the note you need some time to "warm up" to the right pitch. This is partially due to technique, but it's also habit. Simply by doing some occasional practicing hitting notes faster (withou...

Congrats, Pannacotta army! Well deserved win. :) Thank you also to everyone who wrote reviews! Mandibles : This immediately has very Musical Theatre vibes. It’s feel reminds me a lot of the song “Ring of Keys” from Fun Home. Your vocals feel a little low in the mix, but that being said, I can clearl...
