[Thoughts On My Ep? I Can't Seem To Get People Interested In It.]

This is a good place to get some listens but check out the music promo pages for advice on how to get plenty more.

 

Your stuff deserves to be heard because it is well written and engaging. Lyrics are especially good.

 

The EP has that cool demo style, although I think it may have been a bit cooler a couple of years back. Look at the contrast between Bon Iver's two albums. So to pull it off now for a formal release it has to be very well played and sung, or mixed. Have a listen to dantematas, another member on this site, for a great example of this. You've done this 'live', in true demo style but for me mixing very pure versions of guitar first, then vocals over the top may serve your skills better. Even adding the odd simple solo or counter-rhythmic guitar would add some variety as your verse melodies tend to repeat in most songs. 

 

Your upper range is really beautiful and the last two songs take the best advantage of this I think. Hippie Hands is the standout track for me. Congrats on completing and releasing the EP, if you think of my advice for your next release you may find your new audience enjoys a cleaner sound. Any thoughts of a band or backup singer/player vibe next time?

 

Thanks for the reply! I would kind of like to revisit these songs and do some more polished versions of them. I agree, listening to it now, it's a little sparse.

I have had it released for a while, but outside of friends it has been very difficult to get anyone to listen.

[How Can I Be A One Man Band? + Recording Studio + Introduction]

I would suggest you simplify. Try writing with just one instrument at a time and build off of it. I don't know what style you play, but I think simplicity can be a breath of fresh air in any genre. 

[Pick Vs Fingers]

It all depends on the song. It's a way to change up the whole sound of my guitar.
