    I do hate auto tone but you are getting better =D>

    Thanks! Like I said, I been grinding my ass off wit this shit, the failure of The Pilot only drove me harder.

    And the autotune is actually very light on this. It sounded nice without it, but I felt that on this particular beat, the autotune fit it real well.

    Also, let me know what y'all think of the mixing. I feel this is the best mixing job I've done to date. This wasn't done at the studio, this was at home and I mixed and mastered it myself. Took like 10 hours to mix it. I really been learning my way around mixing.

    I'd agree with it being your best mixing yet
  • EpisodeEpisode Posts: 32,049 destroyer of motherfuckers
    Aight I was hoping it wasn't just my ears. Mixing is a bitch lol. And you get so sick of the song 'cause you gotta replay the same parts over and over again for hours.

    Lone Star is now gonna be 2 separate 10 track mixtapes. One titled Lone, one titled Star. Releasing in that order, about 2-3 months apart from eachother. I might also drop an EP of the straight rapping tracks that were on the original Lone Star. Lone and Star are both all singing and RnB. Also, nothing major, but might drop 95 from my name. Just Episode.

    Lone so far is:

    1: Show And Tell
    2: The Last Of Us (Produced by me)
    3: Amnesia
    4: Foreclosure

    Star so far is:

    1: Start The Show
    2: Never Say It's Enough
    3: It's Nothin'

    And in case anyone is wondering why it's 2 releases now, it's a couple reasons:

    1: Lone Star was split anyways. It was 2 "sides" to one mixtape, where both sides, Lone and Star, had distinctly different sounds to them. It was like 2 mixtapes in 1 from the beginning.
    2: People have ADHD wit music and would rather listen to 2 10 track mixtapes separated by a couple months, rather than an 80+ minute, 20 track single mixtape. It's just smarter from a business and promotion perspective.
    3: Lone is extremely depressing music. And not angsty depressing like Slipknot's Snuff. But, for me at least, just plain depressing music. Painful. Obviously moreso for me because I know exactly what/who everything is about and where I was at mentally/emotionally when I wrote each track, but it's just plain sad music. Obviously, some people love that in music, some just want something that makes them happy, hyped up, etc. Anything positive. But for the latter, they'd prolly immediately be turned off by it and not finish the mixtape if it were all one mixtape. But this way, I'm making it clear that both releases are 2 completely different sounds. Star is positive. Sex, drugs, happy shit. Even got a track on there that's a Trap beat that I sing RnB vocals on. If melancholy music kills your vibe, skip Lone and bump Star. If you're more about raw emotion and substance, skip Star and bump Lone. Hopefully you fuck wit both doe like I do. Simple.
