T and T - Wow, I wasn't expecting that. My only critique is that the piano part sometimes sounded like you forgot how to play the riff. I know you didn't - but the listener may not realize what you're doing...

Maybe Tomorrow - Hey, which one's Pink? You don't have that Gilmour tone, but this sure sounds like Floyd to me...

Both tunes had an "older" feel... by older, I mean like 1980s, or something...

That's not a bad thing - especially to me! I think the '70s kicked ass!!!

Overall, good playing, singing, mix, etc. You've done this before, haven't you?

Thanks - glad you liked them. My singer really brings the music we write out into the light. For T&T, I wrote than one and turned it over to him to do his lyrical makeover, and Maybe Tomorrow is something we wrote together. Floyd, ahhh..... my personal favorite. Not sure which element makes it sound Floyd like, but I hear (almost verbatim) what you said - that it sounds like a Floyd tune. Compliments to us!

I'll post another...

man, I agree with Quarry: You've done this before haven't you?

Maybe Tomorrow is great. Definitely Floydish, but in a good way. To me, it actually sounds like some old Floyd tune that never got released, but you guys found the demo for it and recorded a cover. If I were you, I'd feel good!

Bump... Changed the post a bit. Resubmitted (new version) of song and would like some "voting" help from anyone who like the tune.

i like the song bro. good job in mixing it. good job. as for bashing, the drums sound very raw. i like the snare sound, maybe add some on the 2-5k for the snare and a little bit of reverb as well. i dont like the kick. its lacks the click that it needs. and the toms it think need some boosting on the 500-1k region.
hope this helps bro. and keep us posted.
