Musician content is too small here on lemmy I feel. So let’s get to know each other a bit.

    Are the collaborators all vocalists? Why not suggest for you to finish off the tracks with him?

      Two are vocalists, one dark trap producer making a beat for a genre crossover, a rapper that works with that producer, a drummer (neither of us are very good drummers) which he may just get a hired gun to replace because that guy is flaky, and a mandolin player who is collaborating on a different genre crossover. My dude has range and is just out here doing whatever ridiculous thing he wants and I support that shit.

      If he needed guitar, bass, upright bass, a bunch of brass, or a couple of woodwinds I could have helped. In fact, I played one of the guitar parts on most of them (he played bass and the other guitar on all). Bass and guitar are done. A lot of vocals are done. Drums are currently scratch made with ezdrummer.

      When he’s tracked fully I’ll be helping him mix. He’ll give me a rough pass so I can see what he’s envisioning and I’ll rerecord ant guitar parts that need it or double track anything needing thickening, then give it a final pass before it goes off for mastering.
