that "full acoustic" is actually 5 layered tracks. the left side was one take recorded with 2 mics. the right side was done the same way. there is an additional center guitar track as well. i am not playing or singing on this (me sing, thats a laugh!), i just engineered. we added bass yesterday and electric gtr will follow. we are going for that "amanda" feel from bostons third album. here is a REAL ROUGH new mix from my band, its another love song. . . [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] thanks again brian for hosting the songs on your server! http://basstardz.dhs.org/DUC/DUC_MUS.../one_thing.m3u |

Hmmm...interesting...I kept expecting you to go to A for some reason... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] .. I do like the kick on this... what was it that you did to it? I hear something like either a moog-ish synth in the background, or maybe a low pass filter? thanks, Roy |

If you feel like it you can check out how these Strat and Mandolin sample sessions appear. I call these 'AESOP' sessions, and they're excellent for creating various sample types. At any bpm, you can solo or mute any note, and nudge anything anywhere. These screenprints are from 24 track sessions, but now they're 32. Each track started out as a long, sustaining clean note, which I recorded myself. http://basstardz.dhs.org/roy/images/strat/AESOPviews/ and you can hear both sample types (mandolin and Strat) here... 'Maggie's Rain' http://basstardz.dhs.org/roy/mp3/J._Maggie's_Rain.mp3 and hey, thanks to all of you for the help on the feedback... [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] |

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Nippamuk,
I'm recording my band with the 001, we only have a few hours a week so this is a slow progressing project. Nothing ready yet for listening. I participated in the Roy & Peter shootout where we had to write and record a song around BigRedButton's vocal track. Burn Down You can also listen to a song my band recorded a few years ago in a 'real' studio.<a href="http://www.pkoolhaas.demon.nl/spiders.mp3" target="_blank"> Spiders</a> I'm on bass. Not exactly my latest stuff... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] Greets, Pieter |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Roy, thanks for the AESOP views.
Interesting but I'm not sure I understand it yet. Are you saying that you play a single note and then pitch shift it to get the others? Anyway it sounds pretty. Not much like a real mandolin but more like a new kind of instrument. Very creative. Well I am going to take a week off from the day job so maybe I can play a little more. However sometimes a vacation can end up being more work than play, if you know what I mean. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Hi Pieter, I listened to "Spiders". What a great song- the lead vox reminded me of Jethro Tull. Is that you? Was that a violin in there? The song builds nicely. Do you guys always sing in English? I'd love to hear something in Dutch or Flemish.
I see you live in Amsterdam. One of my favourite recollections of Amsterdam was of myself and about 5 other guys staggering out of the Heineken Brewery after a Tour through the facilities, and trying to find a good place to relieve ourselves of all that beer we'd just drunk, and getting kicked out of restaurants all the way back to the Dam Rak (spelling?), because they wouldn't let us use their toilets. I also remember all the goings-on in the Vondelpark. I slept many a night there. Say, Pieter, how did you get my song to play for you? I guess I should get my own website one day; the mp3.com thing is fine for now, but... |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
David/Nippamuk
Thank you for your kind words sir. No, I'm not blessed with a good singing voice, I play the bass. Yes there is violin in there, unfortunately Vincent the violin player left the band but we still can call for him if we need a fiddler. My band songs are in English but I am thinking of doing an other project in Dutch. Sorry to hear that my fellow Dutchmen didn't show much hospitality to your gang. Your spelling is almost right it's Damrak. When was it that you had been here? I think you did something wrong with linking to the mp3.com site, I was able to get there thru your "Im on Board Jack link. If you copy/paste this - http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/578/david_pumple.html - here in the URL field it should work. Greets, Pieter |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Byteme/JW,
Your song pounced on me from the getgo... really nice song and production. I do agree with Soundsurfr that it seems a touch light on the low end (aren't we picky?... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] ), but yeah...good vocals, guitars, and all else. Thanks for the listen.......~Roy [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img] Gene Backlin, I can't find your song now, Gene... if you would, just tell me which one it is in your 'Gallery' section...I would like to hear it. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] Hey Swap, I didn't mean to lay all that stuff on you at once( [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] )...I tend to over-expound sometimes about things that fascinate me. But yes, I do use the Pitch Shift sometimes to up or down a note by a half-step. This allows a complete chromatic scale within that little range of notes. But I'll shut up about it now, and go back to just doing it. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] thanks, Roy |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Hi Pieter, I know this is OT for this thread, but Amsterdam and Holland were the first places I visited as a young (20yrs old) traveller; as such they still loom large in my memory. I well remember landing at the Amsterdam airport from Montreal ( September, 1973) and thinking, "Well, here I am in Europe. What the heck am I going to do now?" I really had no agenda at all. But I met another Canuck soon after, and after a few days in Amsterdam, we went to The Hague to try out for a hockey team. We stayed in a Pension in Schevingen (sp?). I didn't make the team, so headed thru Groningin and onwards to Germany. I eventually ended up in India, and came back home a changed person. The Dutch people were always very kind and polite to me ( they still like Canadians since WW2). After I came back from my rambles in Asia, I returned to Amsterdam to fly home. Because I was on stand-by, I had to wait 3 days at the airport before I finally got a flight home. This would have driven anybdy else nutty, but after 8 months in places like Afghanistan, India, and Nepal, it was a piece of cake.
Sorry to ramble, but I just get all giddy when I think back on those days. OH YEAH, ISN'T THAT ROY HOWELL A GREAT GUY? (just trying to show the host of this thread a bit of respect). [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
I just downloaded a BUNCH of stuff, so, ill be posting my reply in a bit, just gotta transfer all these files to another computer.
Gotta do my part in Listening as well as posting.. ... |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Roy, thanks for the waaaaay-too-kind review of my song. Actually, considering my mother used to sing semi-professionally, I had a hard time getting her to get into the spirit of the song. I had to practically put vice-grips on her fingers to get her to sing at all. Originally I was going to have all my friends and family sing the chorus part, but, well you know how it goes. Maybe one day...
Say, Roy, how do you go about marketing your own stuff? Do you sell CDs? Your songs would obviously be copy-righted. I know nothing about this end of things; I've only recently even considered trying to sell my music. Just wondering... The amount of talent floating around here is truly mind-boggling. |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
David,
I guess things were pretty wild overhere in '73. For good OT (traveling) stories we have the famous DUC Café. Everybody is welcome except DAW sales guys in function...hehe. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] Greets, Pieter |

You really should gather some more songs and do a Nippumuk CD. I played 'Perception' for Linda, and she loved it... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Getting your CD package together is not that difficult, but getting it out there and creating an awareness is part of it too. So I would just plan it out...(as I know you would). Anyway, regardless, just keep writing those songs... p.s. Nippamuk, I'm adding this part after seeing that I didn't answer your question. I had written everything I'm involved in except 'marketing my own stuff', and deleted it because it sounded boastful to me. So anyway, I have at least 2 new CD projects in mind for this year, one an instrumental CD, and the other... well, we'll see. |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Plastik909/Brent,
Sorry it too me so long to listen...a good techno rhythm builder...interesting sounds too. I like that type of kick sometimes too...sounds like the head is loose, but it's still punchy. Nice, as usual... thanks for the listen, Roy |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Nippamuk, thanks for the compliments. Real drums all the way for us, we are not good programmers so playing the parts is easier for us.
Thanks for taking the time to listen. pbh |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Great clarity, man (listening now)... sheesh, are you using anything special to spread this out? Sounds like some of it is about to go around behind me (hehe)... very cool sounds, and percussion, as usual. Did you use a filter to do the 'warping', or how?
Very cool, Brian...always a pleasure. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] ~Roy |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Took a listen myself DaB, I heard you went electronic, so had to give it a listen naturally, right?
Very interesting. Its sort of like Jazz meets an Acid Trip. I like it a lot! Nice drum sounds... Are they direct off a unit? or modified....or? =-Ben |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
ok, here's another one i started yesterday. i guess its done enough. i've been on an electronic thing lately...
http://basstardz.dhs.org/scratch/radium.mp3 i called it radium because i traded in a bunch of junk at guitar center and bought a radium keyboard - usb with 8 knobs and 8 sliders. me like it... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
the drums are mostly loops played in reason. this song is 95% reason.

Love you guy's (you?) doin' softer acoustic stuff, what was the other one ... Jessica? nice acousticy one, love that dudes voice. |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Hi Roy, thanks for your reply. I have 8 songs that I just burn onto CDs and either give away or sell very cheaply. I'm hoping to add another couple of songs soon for a grand total of ten, or about 45-50 minutes of play. After that, I'll see about maybe going for a production run. Which brings up the next question: how many minutes of music do you guys usually put on your CDs? I find that if the CD is too long, I don't hear the end too often. I guess that's why they invented "shuffle mode". [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
And Roy I did read your first post, you conceited, self-centered braggart. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] |

Ya Rebecca that was it.
well for a metal monster, you sure have a knack fir the acoustic stuff.I can't seem to (don't want to) get the tempo's of my stuff much above a death march shuffle. Nippamuk; I've never got a connection on your link, (I'm sure the hampster gotta" get tired). [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
where's your music archtop? i went back a few pages but couldnt find any.
i just listened to "by yourself" . who recorded that? sorry, to lazy to go back and search! anyway. i like it. good song, good recording. the short solo bass near the end has a weird buzz that i heard (being a bass player), but the cool delay thing afterwards made me forget about it. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] good job! |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Robb/8mmOD...
What a great song... cool verse chords, cool chorus...I like the singer on this and 'Rebecca' (same guy, right?)...and nice harmonies on the choruses. I want to hear it when you're done. Good job so far, I'de say..... [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img] |

Okay,
I finally got a website with a domain name. The design is pretty bad for now, but I'll work on that later. The last few tunes I've worked on are posted here. |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
O.k. let's see if this works

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Nope.
what about this plum tree |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Hi Archtop, thanks for expressing interest in my stuff. Try this link: web page
I'm going to listen to your song. Hey I see we are neighbours, separated only by the Strait of Juan de Fuca. They built a college in Victoria awhile back, and were going to call it Juan de Fuca College, but decided not to after someone printed up T-shirts with "Fuca U" on them. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Just thought I'd throw that in... |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
good to hear of some other Northwest folks on the duc, I live in nyc but grew up in seattle and spent a lot of time in the san juans, and up on vancouver island. Do you run a studio up there?

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Are you talking to me, badperson? I am (choose one):
a) a world-famous songwriter/recording artist/engineer/producer operating a huge facility employing dozens of highly-trained specialists, with contacts world-wide including hot-lines to other famous people including Sir George Martin, Roger Nichol, Brian Wilson, Daryl Hannah, etc etc etc, or b) just some middle-aged semi-serious minamally talented underachieving dork with an 8' by 12' music room out in the garage and no time to use it. And who, if I may ask, are you? [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] |
