Bilbo Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 I spent a few hours on it Monday and Tuesday. UInfortunately, it is a load of old b******ks so I have abandoned it and am having a rethink. Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Looks like I'm first out of the blocks with a large slab of dub, just like them thar old timers used to play round the camp fire when there wasn't other cowboys to shoot... Hasn't come out quite as big as it sounded before Soundcloud compression! https://soundcloud.com/dredd-and-the-badass-weed/tombstone-dub Quote

I wouldn't normally listen to others before mine is done, however, the tune is done , but I am now on take 50 or so with the vocal , even Mrs Lurks had a go , that was soooo funny , I have however promised her I won't use it , Quote

Dad3353 Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Well, against all the odds, I managed to get an entry of sorts cobbled together (technical term...); here it is... [url="http://soundcloud.com/dad3353/gold-rush-we-dont-need-no-stinkin-gold-rush"]Gold rush..? We don't need no stinkin' gold rush..![/url] A bit rough around the edges (yes, even more so than usual..! ), but it'll have to do. Innovation, in that I was able to record my own drums, guitar and bass for this. We're a long way from Abbey Road, but I'm quite pleased with the result, especially as I was not able to give it my full attention. Enjoy..! Quote

Dad3353 Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 [sharedmedia=core:attachments:167485] I'll 'spill the beans' on my sophisticated tracking system at month's end to explain how that authentic 'thwack' was captured... I should put in an official wanted' ad, I suppose, but I 'd like suggestions as to how to, on a more than tight budget, get a 'field recording' using 2 mics, preferably with phantom power. Anyone got any success stories..? Quote

I'll plough on, and not let the grass grow under my feet, despite that corny offering. Any other left field comments..? Come on, don't be shy; get it out of your system whilst we're here, you'll feel much better for it. What..? No tractors..? No gates..? Combine harvesters..? Load of bull..? I'm disappointed. A right flock of sheep. Huh..! Quote
alittlebitrobot Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 I've finished the work that kept me too busy to submit on the previous two months, I've got the house to myself and, coincidentally, some beer to myself.. Let's music. Quote
