Mornats Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I've got one almost done. I'm quite pleased with it so far. It's my own take on what I believe to a popular and current theme. I was listening to the "source" of the theme recently and I was heading sounds throughout that were similar to the ones I chose for this so I'm happy! I'm hoping to finish it this week as I just need to tweak the ending so that it leads up to something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xgsjx Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I've got mine started. I've got the basics of the song & the vocals laid down. Iit really shows my ability to kill a song, I should stick with instrumentals. I still might do an instrumental instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurksalot Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I've done that before, using an instrument to follow a melody , but I even struggle getting that in tune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I've got a great instrumental that I play on piano. It's originally an electronica piece. But, I doubt I'll be able to get the keys out until very close to Xmas, but more likely to be after Xmas. I'm redecorating the house.

lurksalot Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) I have got 3 generations of vocal on mine, lurksalittle loves it so far and I nearly whizzed myself on the first family run through . I am waiting on some detailed feedback from my lad as he is more familiar with the genre, and as he 'sang' it , I think it fair. Ed to add , I've been given 1 suggestion which is worth following up on , so I'll do that in the morning and get the thing published , I can start Christmas after that Edited December 16, 2017 by lurksalot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurksalot Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 OK the feedback was fine , so I can offer up for you ..... Wheels (OTB) from the family Lurks If I listen critically there are still plenty of the production that could do with more expert a touch than I can offer, but overall the effect is what we had hoped for Please enjoy Happy Christmas to you all I can get back to organising ours now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mornats Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 It's a cover of the Stranger Things theme! Although it's mainly the main synth riff that they use mixed in with some other stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ped is on the case and trying to sort something out, but no promises. Traditionally it’s been t-shirts but we can’t guarantee sizes/availability this year.

Skol303 Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 Ok I'm in! And I think this is my first entry into the Composition Challenge this year. Well it feels nice to be back at least It's a cover of 3AM by Thundercat, from the album 'Drunk'... probably my favourite of 2017. Bass, guitar and vocals by yours truly. Drums, Rhodes and piano written in MIDI. All recorded and mixed in Reason. The synth-like solo at the end is actually a fretless bass run through the Scream plug-in with a funky envelope filter going on. Mostly to help disguise by crappy intonation... but I liked how it sounded, so it stayed. I'll be winding up the entries and launching the voting at midnight on Christmas eve ...then taking on the Santa duties for the two Skol Jnrs. That Santa guy never seems to pull his weight around here. I'm calling the damned Union. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
