paul_c2 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I have "produced" the new clue. If you don't get it now, I will arrange for the band themselves to come to your house, set up their equipment (with the band's name on the kick drum) and play it for you, it feels like I am gifting it to you: http://www.fse-aardvark-planner.tk/other/gtbl3c.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Wishbone Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Yeah, after listening again I thought it was Knights of Cydonia from the chord progression but, if I'm honest, I don't think what you've played is how the bassline actually goes. I'd have to listen to the original again but, from memory, it's a galloping triplet feel and not octaves like you've played here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Wishbone Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 (edited) Yup. Sorry. Edited July 4, 2019 by Johnny Wishbone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_c2 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I know, it was an alternative arrangement I had - it was unintentional if it misled, but it spiced things up a bit - anyway, you've won! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Wishbone Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Well, I'm certainly not about to break the bass out at this time of night (the wife is in bed). I've guessed a few correctly so I'll try and record a couple tomorrow for future entries, but if anyone else has one ready to go please jump in for now!

stewblack Posted July 4, 2019 Author Share Posted July 4, 2019 As the Ian Messiter of this game I hereby decree that we need not be able to play the bass line 100% as per the original. This would be a retrograde step which might exclude folk from having a go. If it can be guessed then that's good enough! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_c2 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I could have played it if I had the music! I downloaded a piano transcription a few weeks ago, with the octaves instead of the 16th note version!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 're-interpretation' (for want of a better phrase) however......🤷🏻♂️ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) @wateroftyne you asked so here's an easy one, recorded on my phone so its a bit buzzy. Edit: apologies but to listen you need to download and play in Windows Media Player - sorry its so circuitous (I can't do SoundCloud for space reasons) Bass 1 Edited July 5, 2019 by Clarky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) ^^^ does that download work as it doesn't open on my phone? If not I will have to try some other route Edited July 5, 2019 by Clarky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
