neepheid Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Hey folks We've been in the studio and recorded a song to celebrate our upcoming appearance at Belladrum Festival. This is also my first proper recording with the band. I'm happy to hear any comments anyone might have (whether it's about the song, the mix or the bass playing ). http://www.ifb.co.uk/~matthew/mp3/oxbow/recordings20120616/The%20Oxbow%20Lake%20Band%20-%20At%20the%20Festival.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acebassmusic Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Love it! Sounds real "loose" but "together" if you know what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I like it, it's quirky (can't really hear the bass as it's not very high in the mix). I like the singing though and, other than the splash being a bit too loud, the drums have been recorded well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Cheers guys, yeah the bass is a bit buried, I guess it's always a bit of a scrap when there are keys involved, I've emailed the guy to see if the bass can be promoted a little. It's weird though, I hear it better, maybe because I know what should be there and my brain fills in the gaps or is listening out for it.

neepheid Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 The guy has boosted the bass by a couple of dB, new version now up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
