i'm just finishing up everyone's posts now :D

polysax, nice 8)

Khazul, it's like good muzak! well put together, bring the bass up a bit, nice groove mate :D

timur, i've got lots of stuff like this, recorded in my living room, my mates house, other peoples houses, just one mic, and jam... most is shit, but all the recordings led to a couple of really good ideas, maybe one day they will be realised. the only thing that has ever made me dance is a good drummer, jamming with me. you gonna play guitar, and sing?

johanze, my wife would like this, and i mean that as a compliment. good tune, but a bit of silibance is affecting the voc, try and work that out, and bring the bass up a bit, as well.

dhilsabeck, i'll bookmark now!

damn, there is a lot of good music out there! cheers to the forum for bringing more into my life!

Singing, playing guitar, playing bass, playing drums, keys and I don't know what. If it were up to me I'd go for much better instrumentalists than I am, but that doesn't seem to be a choice right now. Unfortunately I've met very few drummers in person that would make me dance and those did't want to make music with me. There's one drummer who also a singer, guitar, vibraphone and string player called Cameron Potts aka Thick Passage. Eventhough his drumming was more punk than anything else that guy was so cool and nice and we got along great that I would have loved to start a band with him. Unfortunately he lives in Australia and not in Germany. :?

Have a look at my sample-rate-conversion-rant thread, there's a recording of me playing and singing at once and some bass-playing on Myspace. I'm mainly concentrating on singing at the moment though, or better to say on my vocal lessons.

Whatever, it's good to see that we don't only have electronicians running the forum but also some more "physical" type of musicians. ;)

waaaaaaah

rock'n'roll will NEVER die !!!! :twisted: :twisted:


I dare giving you this link to my "dark side" ;

www.myspace.com/monstrejumoindus

these are tracks made for fun, cause I'm a wannabe totally frustrated by the fact that I am not a band. I'm not a singer, nor a guitar player, and so amateur drum player... electronics gave me the POWEEER ! :twisted:

(that's kind of demo tracks, I'm lazy and finishing things is too hard for me ;)

cheers to all of you music maniacs :lol:

I don't believe I'm actually going to post this but what the hell? Circa 1988: me a four-track, a case of beer and 0, null, nil guitar skills.

Johanze,

Good stuff! I agree about the sibilance on that first song, but these sound great otherwise. Are they produced in Ableton?

Ah you gotta love that myspace mp3 compression. screws up the top end on everrrything. If you head to...
Kristy London and The Other Halves
There's some better quality audio there.


Some things were done in ableton, but I the majority was all in pro tools. I use ableton in my 'day job' music more (see webpage below) and also use it to trigger off samples live with that band.

Fourth track down: Glu/Naguib et al. III

West African style drumming and singing with 2 friends I have kept since the 6th grade! We actually drummed together for the school 'talent show.' There's a tiny bit of 'electronics' to it, but mostly loops of live jamming. This was made a few years ago.

There are also a few other collaborations that aren't 'electronic.' The stuff with B. silva is more organic.

Also check out the next one down, Glu/Naguib 1. Another one from the same era. All organic instrument playing. tablas, piano, bamboo flute, a little guitar...

We had a song called Mellville, bass player thought it sounded like the Melvins, so we thought it would be funny to name it after Herman Melville who wrote Moby Dick.

The singer thought it was the name of a city! So he wrote lyrics to this heavy heavy heavy song like this (shouting in a tough guy voice)

"Let's go down to Melville for a summer DREAM!"

"The birds and bees were singing in the BRANCHES!"


We were dying in the studio when he was doing this with no music behind it! :lol:
Melville is a town on Long Island, and a suburb of New York City.

Here are a couple of tracks we did in 1984, back when home studio technology consisted of bouncing tracks, back and forth, from one cassette deck to another. At the time, I thought Dolby C was a big deal because it eliminated most of the tape hiss that would've otherwise accrued through "losing a generation".

I'm playing electric guitar and singing backup vocal on the first:

I'm playing electric piano on this quintessentially 80's track:
