\"Tristyn<\/p>\n

Broadjam Artist: <\/b>Tristyn Leach<\/a>
Song: <\/b>House of Hell<\/a><\/p>\n

Reviewer: <\/b>Jeff Roberts<\/a><\/p>\n

Positive Comments: <\/b>What a weird tune, and I mean that as high compliment. Now I know it’s Tristyn when the vocals kick in but had no clue before. Really cool vibe here with elements of Cabaret, Psycho-Western, Americana, and Polka. Really strong vocal hook and a great dance to your doom vibe. There’s tremendous invention and originality in the way this is put together. Cool lead guitar bits with a great tone, and the wah wah parts on the side are slick. Nice one Tristyn!<\/p>\n

Constructive Comments: <\/b>The acoustic tone is a bit “piezo” –is it mic’d or direct? I think you’ve over tracked the acoustic guitar parts–it takes too much of the mix I think. I’d argue for backing off the duplicate tracks (they are right?) and back the level down and add another acoustic that’s somewhat different to break up the “throb” a bit and add a more thickly textured sound. If you could get an upright bass sound in or bring up the existing bass part a bit that would be good–I hear no bassline in this. In the verses I think your vocal should really be way above the instruments and maybe throw in a bit of lofi\/transistor radio effect on the vocals for a phrase or two.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
