I hate when this happens. I use a lot of my time and then at a certain point and I'm not able to go 100% because I don't have the time. Well well. Here's my attempt, sorry for not being able to master it 100 % or master the song or anything. Sorry for not being able to finish the lyrics and therefore not including them at all.

oh also also. It's in 5/4

Since there's only ONE upload, and deadline is really close !! I've decided to record something, just a little sample, I wanted to record the entire song, but I haven't got time ! I recorded this one in about 30-45 min, ( and it took like 10 minutes to figure out how to export as mp3 !! lol, I was putting the cursor on reverse !!)
Anyway, you'll hear some singing in the end ... so please !! DON'T LAUGH
I've recorded one guitar, one bass, I've used Cubase and EZdrummer

Enjoy it

So first thing's first, the execuses:

1)I only learned to play this today
2)The drummer tried being funny in this take in the begining because we did alot of takes to get this..
3)Sound quality is horrible, because of alot of acoustic things =p
4)Second guitarist's volume was too low so you can almost only hear me..
5)I'm having a bad guitar day... so I messed up quite a bit.
6)I really don't like the solo, just can't connect to it

Ok enough of execuses, heres what I think the good thing about this is, this is a live recording, 2 guitars and drums. that's preety much it
so I hope you enjoy, it was fun recording this.

hi guys, here's my entry.

sorry about the big file size, it was about 50mb wav before but i managed to convert in to an mp3.

this is one of my favourite songs and i've been playing it for years and have never actually go around to recording it, so this competition has spurred me on! i'm quite please with the final result, enjoy!

Wow, some really nice takes guys, very nice

Posted by: DeepRoots Jul 6 2008, 08:37 PM

Here's mine:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0hERPjNhec my video recorders playing up- so its not as great as it could have been (wow the quality is so bad on youtube)


<Have a listen to this one too, quality is much better , thnx! )
and also the non-youtuberised quality mp3: http://www.zshare.net/audio/148642889346a457/ (on external hosting site, so doesnt need to be removed from here)


Im glad i took part- there was plenty there to practise mixing- and although it didnt end up perfect im still chuffed to bits (especialy with my own patience with myself )

Anyhow- hope you like it- especially the solo, ive been practising that solo since day one as its just not my style..i found it realy tough.

Edit : I don't think that I'll have time to put it on youtube (I've never worked on youtube, and I don't have an account
if somebody could do it for me it would be really cool, if not it's ok ...

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Jul 8 2008, 12:58 AM

Heh, well the original intention was for video, but since we got all audio entries, that's a cool workaround Jord!

I am heavily impressed with all the takes, nice work gentlemen! Great idea for the comp AP

Posted by: Enucleation Jul 11 2008, 10:29 PM

I'll try to upload mine on either early Sunday or tomorrow. Some good takes here, makes me a bit nervous haha.

Posted by: audiopaal Jul 13 2008, 06:18 PM

I promised I'd upload Oxac's take, as he's on vacation and don't have the opportunity to do it himself:
http://www.zshare.net/audio/152358823e2db024/

And since I'm helping him out I might as well upload se7en's take as well as he's the only one (right?) that hasn't reuploaded his take: http://www.zshare.net/audio/1523629690553264/


If anyone thinks this is unfair, please tell me. But I don't think it is as they have recorded a version of the song for the competition and may not have seen this thread after the last update!

I hope I'm not too late!

Getting everything done over here took longer than I expected. The video is now uploading to Youtube and when it gets done I'll post the link on here.

EDIT:
