Title: some music I made over the weekend
Post by: Sinistron on July 07, 2008, 05:16:04 AM

Was a long weekend- drunken rowdy barbecue as the centerpiece- I managed to bookend the weekend though with two spur of the moment cover songs that I made on my iMac Logic- no microphone- just doing vocals from the chair.  I'm known mostly to do alternative hip-hop stuff (last song I did was Poe's The Raven)- I've made five albums of that stuff already- but this is different- something I'm prouder of and I'd like to share it with you guys for some feedback...

This one we just made yesterday (me and my girlfriend Sue)- I produced, engineered, mixed, all that mojo.  Sue sang- It's a King Crimson cover-

And this other one is me covering a Mazzy Star song (not every one's cup of tea I'm sure)-

Not sure if they're finished yet- but I feel they're at a point where I was at least able to put them up on their pages- let me know what you guys think about this stuff...

Spark- you're correct about the flatness- however I just got the track professionally mastered and re-uploaded it- problem fixed  :o

Give it another go  :)

The Fade Into You is mastered now as well-

Thanks guys for digging this stuff- I appreciate it...  Proud as hell of Sue too.  f*cking worn out now- partying, recording and studio all weekend- back to work tomorrow  :(
