I entered the UK Songwriting Contest, and I got the "Commended Entry" position.

From a recent UK Songwriting Contest Newsletter:

"Other songs that showed above average talent and ability were awarded Commended Entry status."

Woo!

It was for the song "So I Guess We're Over".



Well pleased.

I'm also working with a professional and we're working on a pro version of "The Boy on The Front Page".

Should be up in about a week

New version of 'Addicted To You', original is here:

Original version was solo, we now play the song in my band and here's our recording of it. It's still in the mixing kind of stage so if you can think of any improvements to the mix then let us know!

Thanks for listening, I always really appreciate the reviews I get on here!

Will delete that thread that included a comment from Denis, I'll post it here because I hate deletin posts when people have spent time writing a review!


Denis:

"Sounds pretty good Peter
I would say that it's a good foundation to build on.
Next you need to fine tune the song.
Work on dynamics, it's a bit samy now.
Would like to hear more lead guitar in the vocal spaces.
The rhythm guitar tone is a little OTT on the compression, backing it off will give it more feel.
Do any of the othe band members sing, could add some harmony or even unison group vocals in some parts.
Your vox sound great ;)"

Very first mix of a new song from my band.

Tips about how to improve the mix would be great!

Posted a rough recording of this a while ago, here's a better recording .

Second song with my new band!

I wrote the lyrics, vocal melody, and played acoustic guitar in this one .

Not quite finished, looking for some ideas for improvements! (is the lead too "mental" maybe?)

Let me know what you think!
