Haaa! I love the concept! The music fits perfect with the pondering of steel plates w/ small gussets and 3/8" holes....I deal with that jargon myself....great tune.
With my buddy Tod's killer drum track! Miss all you guys, I can't keep up...

My only musical Christmas present. Tharek(Osckilo) sent me a wonderful Spanish/Arab sounding guitar track. All I had to do was sing. Sometimes that is the biggest treat of all, and I took full advantage of it. Thanks, bro!!
All done on the…
The "Ahhhhhs" (Sleeping with the Ghost)- it's just patience, close mic-ing and using your "head voice" (try and sing as much like a girl as you can lol). And then for "harder" sounds, "wail" at it.
Lots of voices with uniform performances produce "smooth" and "rich"; less and varied performances (as in not the same everytime) produce sharper sounds. Mix the two up as necessary in layers.
Also think about recording the "breath" in the notes as well.
You're actually getting VERY close to it with the vox on here - think about using different tones of voice and it will all become clear :)
Also there's a bunch of EQing tricks - a cut at 3K (Q 1.0) on the bvox will increase the breathy, soft sound (and keep them out of the way of the lead).
I'm not on top of it as usual, guys. But I did manage to let Greg Brady out of my basement and set him free. This is his testimonial regarding the incident. I hope he can forgive me.

Now, you see what you miss when someone isn't "followed"? lol
This is fab too.
Actually, I don't think I've listened to anything of yours since mebbe a year or so back on songcrafters. Well, I'll be back later and check it all out.
Actually, same here - hadn't clicked that button Follow button on yours either - fixed now!
Might as well listen to this again while I'm doing it lol
That chorus is brilliant. The backing vox, and then those descending chords at the end of it.
Back for another slice... and this is even better than I thought... but I've already clicked fave... typical
Tie the woman to the chair, stick the headphones on her and make her listen (that's what I do lol)
Yes - I love it! The strum is very addictive, and the light percussion works very well. Excellent vox, but could be a little higher in the mix, though.

2010 RPM Challenge
This is the song that helped start my acoustic journey!
My humble acoustic version:

You rock, bro!
Mark
After I read into RPM and understood that anybody could take the challenge, I joined up. I'm starting with a clean slate, so I hope I can finish! This a WIP of the first tune I'm working on. Everything I do will be recorded/produced with the Boss…
Ha, that's funny Bethan - I just finished reading "Down and out in Paris and London" and thought "Instead of meeting up with an old friend, how about an old flame?"
Lyrics I have so far:
Been traveling my crooked way
My feelings like
An unleashed dog on the run
I've roamed a mile in those shoes
I'm really glad
Those sidewalkin' days are done
When I look at you
The peace flag flies
And I want to call you the one
But those eyes are devious, girl
You remember when
We had our days in the sun
By no means the first song that popped out. It's just the first one I'm calling done beyond a remix. I think this will wind up leading in to a metal tune and will likely be shorter.
This is the first tune for my 2010 RPM Challenge.
A bit short...my first attempt earlier in the evening (completely different tune) I ended up scrapping at 1:30 a.m., so this one was done in just a few minutes...

Comments on launched's stuff
Had to play it again....where's Grace.....Slick...
Oh man, you're out on a limb, Love it..... is this from Woodstock '69.......
Solid groove, free lyric phrasing. Killer combo, oh slow slide turnaround this rocks........Steve
Haaa! I love the concept! The music fits perfect with the pondering of steel plates w/ small gussets and 3/8" holes....I deal with that jargon myself....great tune.
Awesome!! Great track man!
Yeah! Great tune. IAA
If you have Wilford Brimley's cell # I could use some help
Lovely work on this song guys. The interplay of the guitar is brilliant.
Nice / ThANk you !!!!!!
Hey, look who's here! Super track, great vocals! Bethan

Groovy man! That is killer! I think he was boinking Flo Henderson.....she was a vixen.

Valerie! Your understanding of the known universe needs to be launched.

Excellent track mate really cool
Comments made by launched
Yeah, I do the same thing with vox - It's a job to "hide" them a little, but bring them out at the same time. Really cool tune.
Another listen - Really enjoyed this one!
Yes - I love it! The strum is very addictive, and the light percussion works very well. Excellent vox, but could be a little higher in the mix, though.
Oh, yeah, I dig!
Really cool soundscape - brilliant!
Yes - I love it!
Awesome and cool at the same time!
Big time cool! I'd like to be off the planet, let alone be off the map!
I could play this one all day. And the "scuba" bass is killer!

I see the Grittmeister is up and running!!!! Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!

This is working out great - A metal tune connected with this vibe will be killer.
Yes - I love it!
This was a tease! I really loved the groove you had going... And then... Cool!
I feel the intensity - And it gets stronger as the song progresses. Really cool.
I'm thinking more Pixies meet Smashing Pumpkins, but I could be wrong! Cool tune.
Mechanically organic! I could set this one on repeat for a while. Super cool!
I feel it!
Yes - I love it.
