Oh hey guys I have a new song

Postby Duckmeister » Mon Jul 27, 2009 5:58 pm

So I decided to cover Radiohead.

http://www.mediafire.com/?ziuye0ym3t2

The song is Airbag, but I did a shorter arrangement. If music was programming, this track would be considered "rapid prototyping".

The whole thing was done in two hours, by me. I'm playing every instrument, which includes lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass guitar, and drums.

The tom-toms on the drums are way too low. But I didn't want to record the entire drum track again, so yeah. I also have left foot problems, meaning that my open hi-hat lasts an extra eighth note 90% of the time. Annoying, but a simple turn of a tuning key will fix that for next time.

No singing, yet. Next track I do I will definitely try to put some vocals in there.

For all the curious people, I'm playing a G&L ASAT Classic Bluesboy for the lead guitar and rhythm guitars, an Ibanez SR 1000 EFM for the bass, and a Roland TD-3 for the drums (they're electronic). Each and every instrument was first hooked to their respective amplifiers/monitors, then hooked up to my Mac's external soundcard (with a 1/4 to 1/8 adapter) through the "Line Out" or "Headphone" jack. In other words, no microphones involved. This setup works beautifully, I can get wonderful sound quality, and there's no fiddling around with acoustics. Everything was put together and mixed in Garageband.

Please, please, listen and give feedback. Thanks.

Why do you show up only to plug your songs and not to troll everyone like the old days? It's like I don't even know you anymore, man...

I'm expending all of my trolling energy on other forums. Sorry.

Wow, no feedback? Are you guys specifically ignoring me or something?

Eh...it's a cover, so I don't see any reason to listen to it. Unless it's a different genre or something.

You could at least give me feedback so that I know what I did wrong, so that when I start doing original songs I won't make those mistakes.

I think most people would just be paying attention to the fact that you are, however briefly, back.
