From what i can hear sounds really good. I like how it sounds funky but i can barely hear the bass. The drums are just way to loud if anything the bass should be louder. when he hits the cymbals it hurts my ears. but other than that it sounded good, i wish i had a brother to jam with.

How long have guys been playing your respective instruments?

Sounds good. some timing issues on each instrument here and there, but you were just jamming so it's understandable.

my brother 8 years.
me approaching 3 years.

and about the loudness next time I do this I'll EQ out the highs of my brothers cymbals. we just have a crap little mic and it's in the corner of a small room with the drums on the other side.

I never played bass before but for only 3 years it sounds like your playing real good. I was wondering if you could record #41 on bass the jam part of it. If you would that would be awesome, i would love to just jam to it on guitar.

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": There are five different types of chairs in this hotel room.

Well, I'm not a bassist (I'm a guitar player), so I'm not really sure what constitutes 'good' bass playing, but that was really cool and funky. Cool little riffs, but in some parts the bass sounds a little sloppy (probably due to the fact that it's improvised, eh?), and the only thing I suggest is that you create a main riff or motif you could go back to, which I heard you do a few times in the jam, but I would make it more obvious. I dunno, just a guitar player giving you advice, so you might want to take it with a grain of salt. :lol:

I enjoyed it. Keep it up.
