I would be interested to hear who played what instruments, and how you recorded it. I listened on some cheapo Koss headphones ("the plug"). First song sounded very light with good separation of the instruments. The only thing I wondered about was the snare - at one part when it plays on its own (2:28) it sounds pretty thin. Maybe like it had had lots of EQ added with mids/bass cut out? Also is there an xrun around 2:50-2:51? Maybe this is just my imagination though.. The snare on the second one sounded much better. I wonder if the second song is a little bass-heavy though - maybe the bass guitar could be eq'd so it doesn't overlap with the bass drum so much? It sounds great on my headphones - but I know when that's the case and I move over to my hifi it can sound really over the top and boomy. Please keep in mind that I have no background in sound engineering/mixing or any of that stuff, so these points are probably completely wrong. Just giving personal opinion on the sound using some very low-end playback cans! I think these are, two really fantastic recordings - would not sound out of place on any radio station/commercial CD.
