Dad3353 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 [quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1378413233' post='2200062']...I hope it provides a bit of ....er ... something [/quote] Good evening, lurksalot (...or may I call you 'Lurks'..?)... A bit of....er ... something..? Mission accomplished, Cap'n, message got. The scene is dressed. The photo is not Henley Regatta (...[i]although, with a bit of a stretch..? No, forget it[/i]... ). Certainly atmospheric, and an appropriate descent into chaos periodically. Maybe that's the strength of the photo; you'll find, if you get round to it, that we're actually rather on the same wavelength. It's going to be interesting to compare, at the end of the month, all these similar, and yet all so different, cloths woven from the same threads of emotion. Nice one, sir; well done. ... Now put that gun down..! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurksalot Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Many thanks Dad ( if I may also be so familiar ) I think maybe I was a touch trigger happy but then, in the overall scheme of things I did try to use them as a snare effect with the necessary randomness thrown in . I am sure the soundcloud treatment squashes the mix , It had far more dynamic range on my system before I uploaded it and seems to have a smiley face EQ thrown at it . Still , I think the idea comes through OK , I will Try to catch up on my listening soooon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceChick Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Knowing I have a week off on annual leave next week, I keep looking at the picture awaiting inspiration to strike...... It hasn't yet! I purposefully won't listen to an entry until I have composed as I don't want to be influenced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the boy Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 All gone to sh*t. Tried to get a grungy depressed sound and it ended up sounding like "mmmbop". Back to the drawing board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambient Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 (edited) If it's not too late, here's my attempt, probably not up to everyone else's standards, but kinda cool and I think gets the right vibe, cold and desolate. [url="https://soundcloud.com/ambientbassist/my-mind"]https://soundcloud.c...bassist/my-mind[/url] Didn't have any contemporary war news recordings, but the effect is the same.

Haven't listened to it yet, but I'll do so once the voting starts. I'm fairly sure the deadline is midnight on Monday 23rd. Just finished a crazy spell at work, so I might try to get something in myself. Be a shame not to!

Stephen Houghton Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Not going to make it this month despite a great pic, moving all my gear into a spare bedroom and need to build a desk, setup a new computer and sort out where my monitor's are going to go, my wife is throwing me out of the living room as I am now taking too much space up. Have to empty all the crap I have put in the room over many years, so lots of eBay and tip visits coming up, will try to stick anything that anyone can use that's going free on Basschat. Will listen to the entries and vote at the end of the month though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamdenRob Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Can't seem to find the time this month... and I usually only spend a couple of hours anyway! Hopefully get a chance in the next couple of weeks. Will listen to all the entries once the voting starts. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got quite a strong idea, but it's a bit too ambitious given there's only a week or so left (and I'm currently house hunting when not in work, so it's hectic on all fronts!). But I have a 'Plan B' that I might have time to work on if I pull my socks up. I'm also working on a new track with Mike (urb), which is going great. More on that later...

I regularly check your soundcloud anyway so I'll see the new track with Mike when you put it, looking forward to it. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the boy Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) Ok, so here's my sept entry. It's a bit unfinished as in its an edited down version. The original is about 8 mins long and full of terrible singing. It's called "hope thereafter" imagine if you will that this picture is a turning point and from here on things improve for the soldier. Hope you like it. It's not what I conceived, however it is, what it is. Enjoy. http://m.soundcloud.com/theboysings/hope-thereafter Edit for link attachment(what a twat).
