Sex Balloon

[TimeGhost22]

Hi y'all.

I posted a couple of songs on here last June on my old account on here (which I have retired). The mixes were appallingly bad, and the arrangements were poor.

Since then I have made vast improvements in production, mixing, and have begun mastering myself, instead of just using the the "master assistant" in Ozone 9 elements. I recently got the Limiter 6 GE from Tokyo Dawn labs, which I find really enjoyable to learn on ($29 on plugin boutique atm btw). I am also using the PA Kirchoff EQ, among other plugins.

The results are certainly a huge improvement over previous efforts, though I am sure I have a ways to go.

The song is quite brief. It shows more jazz influence than other tracks I have done.

Be glad to hear any feedback. Thanks.

Well, in the short time since I posted this here, the listens on this track have *nearly doubled*! Needless to say, if the math keeps up like this, things could get out of hand eventually.

Your soundcloud is a wild voyage OP

The title gets you extra points right out of the gate. If no one has mentioned it has a Primus sound to it. At first I thought it was a South Park Episode.

Yeah, had the same impression, speedcore Les Claypool, on bath salts

Came for the title, stayed for the music.

I loved that. Primus, hardcore, noise and a little sprinkling of Mike Patton.

Only listened on my phone, I could tell that there were some clarity/masking issues, but I'll give a proper listen later if you're looking for mix critique.

Thank you and yes, I would be glad for the feedback. My mixing knowledge/skills have been improving dramatically quite recently, and this track and several others I recently finished, then went back and remixed entirely based on improved technique/plugins... and sex balloon I could go ahead and remix again, but I am not going to, because it is time to move on to new songs.

I appreciate it greatly, and I think your response is just about what I would hope for.

Haha, it makes me happy to hear that, because that is what I feel it is. It will only get wilder.

I will mention, fwiw, that I haven't listened to much Primus in my life, though I am certainly acquainted.

I know that feeling, I hate going backwards!
