"You Ready?" song collaboration

 

Players list:

* Nick325
* ezravdb
* Kurt
* jeff
* GroovinMastiff
* leedbreak
* Andrew Cockburn
* JVM
* steve25
* DeepRoots
* ballistic31 (+ bass)
* Owen
* Otto
* Pentatonic Gathering

 

 


Other credits:

* Marcus Lavendell (collaboration leader, composer, guitars, producer, arranger etc.)
* jeff (lyric writer)
* Iluha (vocal melodies co-writer)
* Maria (backing voclas)
* Kristofer Dahl (vocals, video editing)

Here is how it started - 14 pages (!) of fantastic song development reading!

In short: Instructor Marcus Lavendell started a song collaboration topic on the collaboration board in GMC Forum. GMC students teamed up and developped Marcus' original idea into a mind blowing song - I (Kris - gmc founder) got convinced to record vocals (and I certainly don't regret doing so).

I cannot express in words how impressed I am by the collaborators' ability to play, compose and...collaborate. You rock - and you definitely were ready...!

Hey Kris, about the comments being upside down.. they need to be ordered descending or ascending in the SQL query; whichever it is now, change it to the opposite.

And about the video: Awesome! That was awesome guys.. loved it!

There can only be one real observation from this video: it is painfully obvious that Swedes can't dance.

Jesus H. Christ!!! I did not know your singing is that good, Kristof! I actually came here to take some guitar practice, but you should do some vocal lessons as well wink.gif
