This short 2min. production is the theme song for a public access TV show we did this summer starring a 13 year old who reveals happening places around Orange County California for a teenage audience. Evan Saucedo, the talented actor/singer sang the lead on the track.

I finally got a chance to stop and listen to your latest stuff. You're a hell of a drummer, man... some of those kick parts must be programmed (are they?), or else you've got the fastest feet I may have ever heard (especially on 'Never'). I like the low tuned guitars on 'Feel' too. And of course, 'Dripping' kicks...
There's something about the Primate productions that I like a little more than the Brutal Masication stuff, but they're both great.
As I've said before, metal is not my forte, but I appreciate anything that's done well.
Good stuff, man... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

p.s.I've got some catching up to do with the rest, so maybe tonight I'll get a chance...
And thank you too, Skip.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Thanks for the kind words, Roy [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

The difference between the 2 productions (I think)lies in the recording. Primate`s stuff was recorded in a class A type studio while Brutal`s stuff was recorded in a warehouse straight to PT.

Oh about my feet, that IS me playing all the parts (we used to practice 5 times a week!). I did trigger the kiks to get that sound and I did fix a couple of spots where my left foot lagged a little behind. So did I program from scratch? NO, but I did use MIDI to ¨enhance¨ my performance. I must add that I didn`t ¨add¨ any notes I didn´t play, just nudged a couple of them [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

I know this isn`t your cup of tea and I truly appreciate your comments.

thanks!

cheers,

jorge

jorge, i dont tend to listen to music as heavy as yours but i really, really liked "FEEL", and i also liked the second persons vocals on either "zonning" or "rumors".....i think you should use those vocals more for your next softer/lighter song.

Good stuff in here!!! This is my first public post of recorded material here....so here goes.

Just a little history about this jam, that's just it, a total live jam in my studio, totally inprompto.... That's my bro on the guitar, running D.I. using the samsamp plugin. I'm running D.I. with my fretless, while the drummer being the only one mic'd.

A little something about the drummer, this is the first time we had ever jammed with him, and happened to be the first thing recorded with him. I hope to continue the obvious musical connection we have and actually write some stuff, practice it, and really produce something.. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Anyhow, without further adoo:

This next song was done by a Death Metal Band that I recorded. The drums were recorded completely live with no triggers. There coming back in the studio to do the whole CD with drum triggers in hand, so the kick should be a lot easier to achive the desired results.. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Thanks again to those who helped with this mix!!!

BRB,
Thanks so much. Other than playing on sessions, the closest I've done to hi end video was playing slide on one of the IMAX productions a while back (on mountain climbing). But like most gigs, it's a matter of opportunity. It would be cool to do that too.
I'm looking forward to the new mixes you're doing, but take your time... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

bi0force1, thanks so much!!

I`ll tell the guy`s you liked Pudu`s vocals (he will be so proud he he he)

Roy, I hadn`t actually compared the two projects! duh!
I mean I never listened to mixes from the 2 projects back to back!

After reading your comments I went home and listened to ¨Never Thought¨ and ¨Dripping Gash¨ and then listened to ¨Rumors¨...........hhhmmmm
Maybe you liked Primate more because its much more ¨musical¨ and the vocals vary in tones, whereas Brutal is just that, simple, brute.....
as far as the mix......hhhhmmm I think I might`ve crammed Brutals` stuff through the limiter a little too hard? the drums don`t seem as punchy, typical when overlimiting....
Another thing that bothers me on the drums is that I went from 24 bit to 16 bit (recorded the drum mix thropugh an AMII card on an old Mac and PT 4.0), and then back to 24 bit. Problem is the drum mix suffered levelwise, lost bottom end so I had to do some touching up .....

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">:lol: No doubt, hopefully in the near future we can have satellite A/V feeds so we can jam together... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

But yeah, I don't think I'm gonna let this drummer loose on the world without me... [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Here's one last jam/groove that my band Blue Onion and I did, different drummer from the last grove... [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
 
I just got a chance to go through and listen to some recent stuff, and wanted to mention how good some of it is...

jbartunek/Josh- I think 'My Friends' is a great song. Reminds me of a girl I used to 'see'... Great vocals. [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

LoganM- Man, I don't know if anyone else heard this excellent music of yours, but all 3 songs kill. 'You're Right' is my favorite...I love the vocals, the bass sound, the breakdown, etc. My second fave would be 'Kill Your Radio', I think, but all 3 are exceptional songs, and I wish you the success you deserve with them.(They definitely merit a record deal, IMHO) [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Plastik909- This is a good piece (or should I say pieces?, because it could be divided up into 3 entities). I did a little lifting as I listened and it was perfect... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Very driving. Good job.

Dr. John- Cool chord changes and vocal treatment on 'Take by Take'. Nice song man... Interesting dynamics. Keep on creating... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

BRB/Jackson- Your vocals are great as usual on the Vital Factor/'Tie' cut. Is that your wife singing with you on this venture? Good mix, too... [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

GWvox- 'Somewhere Further South' is really refreshing, man. The main music theme in the verses lays down a cool aura (tremelo guitar used very well). And great singer man, very real...
Good work IMHO.

Danyl- Really great stuff man. I could compare Raid to a couple of groups, but they're unique enough not to have to do that. 'Cube' is wicked, man... a production to be proud of. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

badperson-Sorry, but couldn't get yours to open for me. I'll try again later though...

That's all I had time for, and I appreciate you guys posting such interesting and creative stuff.

Thanks, Roy
