I started experimenting with tight Low/high pass filtering on some of these vocal parts and I think it worked pretty well. I'd love some suggestions though, if you have time.
In my profile, still haven't figured out how to direct link :-P

Dec 04, 2011 02:03 am You had a video for this song before?
I'm assuming the "Ohs" are the vocals you put the filters on?
They don't sound bad. Vocals in general seem like they could come a bit more to the front of the mix just a touch, in my opinion.
Side note: I'm dying of laughter right now as one of the "Related Forum Topics" is "Cocofromscotland complains about fireworks- as read by tonyd"

Dec 04, 2011 11:40 pm Doh! I forgot I already posted this song here, but this is a completely new recording. Same songwriter, different band, new recording. I agree on the vocals though, already tweaked 'em. Thanks! Are we friends on FB already? I posted a real strange one that I am working on. Some hardcore delta blues with Ladysmith Black Mambazo influence. It's corny, just the way I like it, hah.

Dec 05, 2011 04:19 am Probably we are not friends on facebook since I'm not on facebook.
Would love to hear it though.
Dec 06, 2011 01:59 am How do you get a different band to record the same song? Isn't there like a problem with rights or whatever? Like, are they both cool with it?
I like the other mix with the other band better, it sounded bigger and cooler.
And I don't really like the oo's with the high/low pass filters. They kinda come out of nowhere.

Dec 06, 2011 03:29 pm The band broke up before we released these songs, and the songwriter moved back to his old band...the one in this recording. Thanks again for your help there Mike, I wish we could have done something more with that. Ill review the vocal filtering and rethinkcthe mix. The musicianship in this group is on a different level than the group from the last recording. I must need to get my act together!
My weird bluesy song is on WWW.soundcloud.com/mrquincy. Its the first two in my songlist (monster...) that I'm working on. Prepare to giggle.
Dec 06, 2011 04:18 pm Hhahaha.
You made me laugh at a fart noise. Congratulations.

Dec 06, 2011 11:46 pm My humor stopped maturing in 3rd grade, I just use bigger words before the fart noises now. There's parts in 4/4 and 6/8 though, which is what I really dig about it. I hope to do more like that. Like Meshuggah arrangements with Mississippi Fred McDowell guitars and Bonham drums. I've been meaning to do a kinda cerebral hardcore delta blues project in a style like this with the intention to make it a live band. Maybe I will now...I certainly hope so.
