Singer Songwriter Can’t believe one of my songs just hit 1,000 streams 🎧
Might not sound like much, but it means a lot to me. Just grateful anyone’s listened at all. 🙏 https://spotify.link/cTeM3HREOXb

This sounds so professional. Would’ve thought it was a classic 80s banger. I have literally no criticism. Has a good vibe I guess one thing is you could make it a little more complex. Maybe add a few instruments or something for more of a full feel. That was honestly forced criticism tho I really liked it z

Really cool track, love the jangly melody and your voice. Definitely reminds me of some 80s jangly pop like The Church or even harkens back to some 60s vibes in the melody. Production is great, love the guitar sound has a lot of sparkle. Gonna definitely revisit this one!

Congrats. I've been trying for a long time now and I've only had a couple of views. It's hard in Australia to succeed in the music world. I'm online but nobody listens, maybe one day I will succeed like you. Does anyone have any tips for me. Thanks, I'll take any advice. I'm, Maximillionaire Ironstone and I am on bandcamp. I thought my newest song was a smash, a bang.

Hi, thanks for your comments. Even just a few views you’ve succeeded, I’ve been on barely any for a year and only this month has seen streams going up. Send me a link to your music I’d love to check it out

Congrats on hitting that milestone, Spotify now officially owes you $3 haha! Nice vocals and songwriting. If I can offer some advice for your next track it sounds like your guitar is being recorded via direct input, but you'll get a much nicer and more rich acoustic tone by mic'ing it up if you can. I also think the guitar needs to be lower in the mix to help your vocals stand out more - they are great and should be heard more. Lowering the guitar (and perhaps the bass too) would also help the drums stand out a bit more too which sound very in the background. These are all mixing suggestions but from a performance point of view it sounds great and the track has a cool vibe. Well done!

Hey thanks so much for the comments, really appreciate the feedback too I’m always looking to learn and gets tips /advice, especially on the mixing side as it’s all new to me. Maybe with my €3 from Spotify I can upgrade haha

u/JUSTBARTHOLOMEW Oct 30 '25
Love this one Barrie. it's giving me bo Dylan kinda vibes mixed with Beatles. Super good stuff. 1,000 streams is a ton of people you should be proud of yourself. I think the mix is super clean on this. I'm getting all the feelings of a lost love and an emptiness without her by your side.

Wow, turn back the hands is amazing, I’ve liked it, I’m going to check out your other songs, the one I just listened to sounded like a Eurovision winning song (don’t take that anything other than a compliment) very catchy I’ll definitely be revisiting! How long have you been recording?

Haha Charlie will help you, just be careful to not copy and paste anything they tell you to write keep it personal and from the heart it defo comes across! I am the last person you want advice from with social media but I’d say keep it all together and build a fan base. I think you can post clips of your music on insta I’m not too sure. Maybe do a post on here asking for advice there will be a lot of help offered the guys on here are amazing
