It's a cover, not a copy ~J$ 2012Caravan Ray wrote:Ok - let me be the fist to apologise to my gifteee.
This song was way beyond my level of musical competency - but I reckon I gave it a fair crack. I hope you realise how much it pained me to go beyond the sort of 3 chord songs I am comfortable with. THough I did all I could to drag this song down to my level.

Whelp, I may have to be late for the first time, but the hope is that the lateness will ameliorate some suckage problems.

Re: 10th Annual Gift of Music
Done, done, done. My usual collaborator and fine friend Andy Balham has added some acoustic colour to an otherwise electronic monstah. I may send a link to my giftee tonight and they can choose whether or not they listen now or on the 25th. I am very bad at keeping secrets.

Where should I send the MP3 / link? I don't see the address in the thread, but I am skimming at high speed, so apologies if it is in fact blatant.

Where to send the songs: iamniveous AT gmail
As for the due date, I'll go with Mike's call on this one and say 2/10 is the closer. No songs accepted after that day.

Re: 10th Annual Gift of Music
I can procrastinate? Awesome! But seriously, this works out really well. Dog bites set me back a couple weeks, not to mention... procras... screw it, I'll type the rest tomorrow.

Re: 10th Annual Gift of Music
I've had most of mine done for a while, but It took me forever to record vocals I was happy with. Finally found the right combination of voice processing to make my voice sufficiently hard for me to recognize... and it's in!

Re: 10th Annual Gift of Music
I took Cray's advice and added more guitars. Definitely an improvement. I plan to master and submit tonight.Caravan Ray wrote: But if there is more time - I guess it can always have more guitars \m/
Hmm, "master" and "submit" makes it sound like some sort of S&M thing. Ouch!
