Mat Demaz- (I Just) Died In Your Arms (Freestyle 13)

[mdemaz]

Almost got the vocal thing sorted out.
Just gonna tinker with the EQ then we'll be sweet.


Lyrics:

Ayo guys
let's take this back to the classics

I just died mentally I can't stand another shit dream
music is all I have only death is my friend and it's mean
no matter what I fucken do I'm doomed to slave by the mic
real life screwed me over for the last time I'll try and fight
can't take this anymore I just want damn money
I want out in the chair of hate where satan spun me
this is all me I've lost it all but I gained skill
fuck it maybe memories will not remain but pain will
I'm spittin' the vemon in every direction so just try to stop me
my lyrics are like rows of guns getting ready to pop heat
I was nuts still am and it hurts that I have become a maniac
I blame myself I'm insane and in hell everyone just stay back
my whole life is a lie I've told no lie it's soo cold don't you cry
we will get through this eventually we look boldly at the sky
my life is torment I want out of this fucked up hell a mess right
In heaven I'm stuck at the gates ran outta luck oh well I guess I

(Chorus)
oh I I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight 2x

This is one of the best thing I heard from you. Keep improving man.

I should probably stop spitting on such complex beats...
That's all that pisses me off, when the vocals get drowned out even though they are squashed in soo tightly..
I might have a plan to fight that though, I'll just use no gain on the mic and just limit what I spit..
Gotta keep a constant tone throughout the verses too..

I think I almost have this shit nailed though.


My next LP is going to be epic, I can sense it.

hey man this is a great start to a sick sounding song but i think you were off beat a few times in the very beginning, like around the time you say satan spun me. sometimes you weren't as clear w ur enunciation n other times you were crystal clear. i liked the actual lyrics of the songs, good stuff. your def improving though.

return the favor please? viewtopic.php?f=38&t=133189

No doubt, no doubt, I return the feed.
I've managed to fix the clearness of the vocals now so I shouldn't have any problems.
I use a NT1-A microphone, so it takes a lot of experimentation to get that raw sound because it's got a cardioid polar pattern..

I've heard a few drops from you. You seem to be progressing steadily. My only problem is that you go off beat a lot. This is fixed in time, though. Your presence seems fine in some parts but forced in others.. If you could have a steady mic presence throughout a track, it would make a huge difference in the enjoyment factor.

Man, I feel relived to get some good words from you, thanks dude!

[Eedee]

This beat is just... HOLY SHIT. Reminds me a lot of No Love, the sample in the melody and the drum kit.
You go offbeat sometimes, and your voice fades and fades back in at some parts like on the "damn money" part - didn't mesh well with the beat, I don't think. Otherwise, lyrics were good and you keep improving Good work!

Feed me back please? Thanks! viewtopic.php?f=38&t=133234

Iight dude..

you know I dont have anything against you Mat, but you really need to start focusing on improvement, you drop like 3 tracks a week and there's barely an evolution.

You seem to know about effect application and mixing, but why you don't put that into play.

My guess is that you dont take enough time to do each track, you need to focus more on them honestly, cuz this, even if there's emotion, content and all that, as a hip hop song, its not comfortable to listen to at all.

you need to practice your writing better to always stay on beat
be more clear when you speak
use enough mixing to get yourself a good quality
take more time to do each song, dont release them until its perfect

hope this helps man, seriously, take a break from releasing and focus on improving

Perhaps he IS evolving, and it's like the evolution of life on Earth. Slowly but surely he's going to work his way up. After all, if you go back, there is no certain point in time where a species turns into a new one... It's slow gradual changes.

[mdemaz]

I just need to wait until the demon is released from me, it's trapped inside.
I personally didn't find anything wrong with the quality of the mix, just my verses were off beat..Usually when I record I do a song each day...Sometimes I do a song 12 times..

But yeah, I'm gonna stop pushing out 12 songs a week and focus on quality..
Ax really helped me with that speech, I think I'm gonna fucking pull this shit off.

Lyrical Death is the name of the upcoming LP, I'm gonna give it all I got, and if it sucks, I can always keep playing guitar..

Fuck you, don't say shit like that. Just put your fucking heart and mind into this next LP and dominate the shit out of it and fuck the haters. You're one of my fave artists on this site, I'd hate to see you go. I wanna see you improve like a motherfucker and god damnit it you will!
