Hello Guys!! Welcome to my first Video Collab at GMC!
The idea is to make something big! We will use an original song that I composed some time ago to create a GMC Hit. This will be a VideoCollab/VideoClip so you can record yourself playing, singing backing vocals, acting, head banging or doing some funny things. Kris will be recording the lead vocals but we need to write some lyrics for the song. Could you please help us with it? We also need some guitar players that record arrangements, guitar solos, licks, the riffs, some modern noises, whatever you think that could work over this tune. Remember to film youself doing it and to post both the video (mp4 format) and the mp3 file (with and without the backing track). I’m posting the full mix with Kris idea for the chorus and also another shorter file with some ideas (the lyrics has no sense, it’s just a reference) for the voice melodies of the other sections that I have recorded when I first composed the song.. You can use it to write the lyrics or you can suggest other melodic ideas. I will edit the structure of the tune if it’s necessary, so feel free to record all the ideas that appear. The tune is in E minor and the tempo is 145. Who is in?? Full Song: GMC_Video_Collab___Full_Song.mp3 ( 4.21MB ) Number of downloads: 1122 Vocal Reference (sorry for my lazy vocal performance... it's just a reference! ): Video_Collab_Vox_Ref.mp3 ( 1.4MB ) Number of downloads: 949 IMPORTANT: If you are going to record a guitar solo or something with your guitar please also post here a file with the line signal without any distortion, amp simluation or process if it's possible. This will allow us to have a more uniform sound. Thanks! This post has been edited by Gabriel Leopardi: Nov 17 2011, 07:19 PM -------------------- My lessons

I hate to be the one delaying this - but here is a progress report: I have pretty much lyrics/vocals down for the first half of the song....and I think it's going to rock! Now I just have to practice it some and then record. AMAZING!! Can't wait to hear you singing this one!! -------------------- My lessons

Vocals draft:
http://soundcloud.com/kristoferdahl/kris-draft1 GMC We're talking hard...and rocking hard! You don't know who the hell we are Day and night, we make it right And who's to say we've gone too far? Practice - makes us better Practice - gives us the strength we need Practice - you know that we are ready Practice - That's right baby, 'cause do you know who we are? (We are GMC) We're flying far away To the promised land of 'Axe n Shred' It's time to set the sails We're loving it, kicking it, playing it and doing it all at... ...GMC! ------------------- It's still very rough and experimental + I couldn't use the cool sounding backing (but Gabe will fix that easily). The chorus ("we're flying...") needs more climax and power to work - I am hoping some [guitar?] dubbing will do the trick. Also during the "Practice" part it would be really cool if we could get vocal takes from as many people as possible (no singing required - just shout "practice" four times, that's it) Gabe has the final word though, and I will be sending him my files this evening. So let's wait and hear what he says about this ( I am hoping he won't tell me to start all over ) |

Should this be guitar stuff only? I just got a guitar shaped midi controller and thought I'd throw it in But I get that it's a GUITAR promo so maybe not a great idea? Just curious I think I might try something different on guitar, maybe accoustic, classical, mandolin, etc. P.S. what are you going to put on the dry guitar tones once they are in the mix? hey! feel free to record whatever you think it will be amazing! I ask for the dry guitar (besides a processed one) to use it in the cases that I think that the sound is poor or need some adjustment to make it fit in the song. This is video collab but you can use your midi controller if you want... I don't think that it could be a problem. -------------------- My lessons

What's the deadline for this collab? I'd like to contribute more, but at the moment I don't have much time (as the end of academic term is nearing).

Gotcha I'll maybe submit a guitar take with distortion and otherwise dry as well as all the way dry one. That way if it works, as it you can use that but if not the clean one is there too. The midi controller has been wads of fun Playing piano and strings on guitar is pretty fun. Great mate! What's the deadline for this collab? I'd like to contribute more, but at the moment I don't have much time (as the end of academic term is nearing). We still have time... when do you think that you could post your take? -------------------- My lessons

Hey Gab,
I have a really interesting idea Besides the guitar video that i am gonna shoot i can play the verse drum parts on a guitar hero drums(not with real drum sound, just a rhythm, after muting the audio it's gonna look like i play the real drums ) and shoot a video. And since there are no guitars in that section maybe you can put that video as a background while Kris singing. What do you say? -------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SPOTIFY PAGE YOUTUBE CHANNEL |
