Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Hey, I like this set of songs. Good stuff y'all. Particular props to Berkley square, beautiful recording job. I didn't realize it was live until someone coughed in the middle. Good stuff. or, as they say in german, GOOD STUFF!
Seven Falls is also very nice, I like the drum sounds. Very good mood. Minute maid.. I like this song's sounds. I agree that the bongos should go away from the beginning, though I'd just pull them out altogether. Actually, I'd keep them in when the drums come in, but drop them down and pan them in closer to the kit. I'd make the drum mix more traditional overall. The whole thing's a bit lopsided feeling now. Nice voice. and good lyrics too, from what I got. The Foreboding. I think this sounds really good, you shouldn't be so hard on yourself. I'd pull the drums up, and maybe bring the lead-y guitar up a bit between the lines with some automation. But very good, what's the vocal mic? reminds me of Nick Drake or the voice from that british group that did "the clearing"- the name's not coming to me. Damn. I hate it when this happens. They had that other song that began "Friday night we went down to Archie's" and thenn you couldn't understand anything for a while, and then the chorus came at the end... "went for the weekend, stayed for hte summer" or something like that. I'll think of it. Any help? Point is, good song. I don't know if it's the MP3, but there's some kind of trilly-warbly distortion sound throughout. I don't hear it on the lead guitar. I can't quite place what it is. Have you checked the correlation? I'd like to hear a CD version of this. Very nice. I especially like the ending. I'm going to listen to the other songs on the page and see if I still hear that distortion thing. I say "Quit the day job!" (Yeah, I'm still hearing it on fly, (cool moog) sounds like the bassier stuff and vocals is distorting or warping or something.) (I've downloaded the songs, and I'm keeping them! HA!) Mistery is very cool. I like the flutey sound that starts off the piece. Is that vocals? Oh, and I like the keyboardy horns too. cool track. Oh, and Roy, I like the new Moon song (I smell a concept album) Ripping into the verse is ver nice. Just a rockin' track. The keys sing too! Wreet! Damn this is good stuff. Lightning licks! I love the breakdown here. Dum dum chacka chacka. Reeew! deedauloodeedauleedwweeett! God, I'm doing whatever the ascii version of air guitar is. Wicked. Good out too. My only complaint is...could you just fart into the tape machine and release that as a track once in a while? They're not all supposed to be great songs, man! Oh, and Roy if you do the moon concept album, you should do a cover of "moon over parma". Just for [bleep]'s sake. Well, I'm off to mix a few things before the inevitable 3 am bedtime. Nintey-nine's, y'all. -Olaf Moon over parma bring my love to me tonight Guide her to cleveland underneath your silvery light We're going bowlin', so don't lose her insole, and Moon over Parma, tonight! |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
I almost forgot to mention this... I produced a new song that's up on my studio page, it's called Wendy, tell me what you think, check it out on my sounds page:
http://www.byolaf.com/Studio/Sounds.htm You can download the whole song by right-clicking the name, or listen to a sample in the auto load box. I should be posting an early draft of an unfinished song there by a group called 'Feathergun' tomorrow, (oh, screw it, I'm doing it now. Sigh. Websuck.) that track's turning out pretty good, though they moved back to chicago, so this may be all there is. Sorry 'bout the drums. And am I the only one who finds it wierd that a guy in a band called 'Feathergun' would pen a song called 'without a gun'? -Olaf I just discovered some really wierd static through my stereo, it only happens when I do something on screen like move the mouse or type or something. Very strange. I think I'll waste a few hours recording static! Yay! I say Feh! to rent! |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Rabidium/Olaf...the thought of you playing ascii air guitar got me...
Thanks for the comments on 'Moon Over Vegas'. I really like 'Wendy' too...very cool and different. I will listen to more later...about to go head out of town for the weekend. nightshadecrisis/Ev, Thank you too for the comments...I do have quite a few 'moon' songs now, don't I? Last night, I pulled out 'Sleepy Moon', which is the first song I posted here (just laid back guitars). It reminds me of where I'm about to head right now for a few days, the Little Red River in Arkansas. You guys take it easy... -Roy Sleepy Moon |

Here is another track from my daughter's high school choir. They ended the night with a Medley from Les Miserables...here is an excerpt. The Medley itself was 15 minutes long ! These kids just amaze me, for their age, they really can sing.
http://s94545301.onlinehome.us/music/13_06_Track.mp3 I am really enjoying the challenges of recording choirs. This is such an education. I hope you enjoy ! Thank you for listening. Take Care, Gene |

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Thanks again for that, Roy.
I've been in contact with ChrisIntelDoc and the session is now in his hands. I'm really looking forward to seeing what he can do to clean up the song. Then I will study what he's done and see if I can learn some to do it myself. Thanks so much for setting that up. Major gratitude for that at this end. Guit4Brains. Thanks for the encouragement. I guess there's so much stuff that's so good here that I kind of feel awkward posting stuff that is mixed, through my ignorance, in such a haphazard fashion, and played just barely competently. I go through phases of thinking that my music is kind of OK to phases of getting hypercritical over everything and hating it all. When I posted I was very much in the latter. I have never thought about the songs I do in terms of an album, I just find a few chords, write a lyric, start recording, realise it's all wrong and start again, arrange it, mix it then go on to the next song. I just get a real kick out of the whole creative process thing. And I'd really like to get better at it. Thanks for taking the time to listen and reply. Rabidium (cool handle) Thanks also for that breathless paragraph. The vocal mic is an NTK. I love it very much. I don't know the clearing or whatever so I can't help you, but I hate it when that happens. Hope you've remembered what it is or you won't be able to sleep I'm afraid I don't know what correlation is to check, but the 'distortion' is most likely a combination of a noisy PC and the traffic from the main road we live 5 yards back from. You're welcome to the songs, btw, although it's all just clutter on your harddrive. Oh, and the day job stays for the forseeable future, and beyond. Thanks very much. Thanks again to everyone who listened. I'll go and crawl back under my rock now. |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Rabidium
Awesome guitar sounds when everything kicks in. When I get home from work I'm going to download the whole song and hype up my children with it so they don't sleep for a week. Great stuff. Oh, and a feathergun is no kind of gun anyway, if you ask me, hence the song. But what do I know?? Best |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Jon,
I remixed it in about 1.5 to 2 hours tonight. It is a HOT mix, but I really think that you are going to like it.... If you want me to post the link, let me know. I have the WAAV file in the FTP access area for you. I will get the session up there in a day. I still need to write the Eventide and Lexicon stuff to a track for ya. Let me know and I will make a link here for the tune. it is pretty HOT and I am not sure if I like it that hot, just seemed to fit tonight when I was throwing things around.... EQ wise! Had fun with it and it definitely cleared it up! Got rid of the road and air noise the best I could. There were a few pops in the bass that I tried to fix, but for the most part left them.. Used: OUTBOARD: Eventide for its ANALOG Delay - subtle Lexicon PCM-90 with a verb I built BBE for Bass guitar enhancement versus MAXXBass PLUGIN: TrueVerb for vocal tails WAVES 2 Tap delay - very lightly LA2A for VOX track RComp for Guitars and Bass D3 Focusrite EQ on VOX TWEEKS: Snare I just cut it up.... No need for the added noise Doubled the Electric Guitar part Tad of verb on the Piano - brought it all out better Post the LINK!!!! - Doc FTP around the world is pretty cool! |
