Polished Production Take 4

If this link doesn't work I give up. (Thanks to all who've posted helpful links to videos, etc.)

This song is one of a couple that have been returned with the comment "needs more polished production". Anyone who can help me better understand what that means I will be very grateful to. Thanks in advance!

Nope, link doesn't work. You can open a free Soundcloud account and stick in on there for a link. Set it to private and disable downloads for the safest route there. (One gotcha is private songs don't play on iPhones, iPads, etc. for some reason).

I made this video for anyone on the forum who has a problem posting their tracks, I wish there was somewhere on the forum that this link is visible for everyone to go to so I don't have to keep copying and pasting all the time...not that I mind doing it, just more easier access.

That would be a good thing Andre. It seems that every new member has exactly the same problem on posting their first track link, and its not their fault. Your video ought to be a compulsory study for all 'newbies' :).

You could always follow Casey's suggestion and use Soundcloud Rob. That seems to work for everyone.
Thanks Graham, I even emailed Taxi and sent them the video if one of the Admins wanted to put it on the forum..oh well I will just copy and paste when ever I can or I can just make it public instead of private.

I just listened using Boss noise cancelling headphones, and for starters this is some nice classic rock. Good composition and playing. I didn't hear the brittleness mentioned earlier, but I do feel that the track is a little "muddy" as far as EQ goes. I'd like to hear some more crispness in the mix, which might be the exact opposite of what telefunkin is saying. Probably just my old ears... ;) And yes, definitely need some edit points. I think a couple of beats before the bass solo starts, or coming out of it.

Again, really good music, it will find a home somewhere.
