Recording a solo album... here's track one!

[penguindf12]

Yeesh this took a long time. I've been listening to this so much over the past 2 weeks I've grown sick of it, so it's hard for me to judge if it's good or not. If anypony can give feedback...

So... quasi-WIP.

I was told live drums would sound good on this... but that's tough. If the Reason drums sound good, I'll keep 'em.

It's a concept album, so the abrupt ending is actually a segue.

Drums are perfect here. Yes, you would need to hire a professional drummer to play that live.
About all the track... it seems that the vocal sometimes falls out of rhytm... And the guitar is a bit ahead on 2:15.
Also the padding is too weird for me. I would never use 100% panning. But may be early-Beatles-sound is your intention...
Anyway this is all IMHO, keep working!
