This one has caused quite a bit of discussion between us on how it should be mixed. Has anyone got an opinion because we would like to know how you would have mixed it, where would you have put the bass, piano, drums, voice, guitar etc. Any constructive…
Guys, this is great!
Thanks! My dad taught me to jive when I was about 5 years old. He used to have my sister in one hand and me in the other on the dance floor. He was a drummer!
I bought a thing called an irig for the I pad and an app Amplitude ...i used the onboard mic on the ipad......the song is my version of take it easy baby it's been Regged.... I still have to work out how to mix it .........I did this while sitting…
Reg has been reading a lot lately he's currently reading an interesting book called "Storming Heaven LSD and the American Dream by Jay Stevens" and so he decided to revisit A Toast to the Stone-age he did with Norm during Johnny's death and before…

Reg had a bit of tiff with the Mrs so he stormed down the cellar to release his anguish with Elvis and turned it into this little beauty .....now he feels a lot better and is making Mrs Reg a nice cup of tea to say sorry....because lets face it…

Excellent work! Welcome back other Reg!
@ Beth: Well, since you had to ask! Yes, the percussion here is very nice: I would classify this not as Bossanova (a Brazilian pattern built upon Samba type rhythms). To my ear, this is afro-cuban and would be in the "Son" (aka Salsa) family, in which the "2" is the primary accent. There are a variety of patterns in this family, differing primarily in tempo:
Bolero; Guajira<104; Danzón = 104-132; Cha-Cha = 108-126; Son = 122-224; Son Montuno = 184-216; Mambo = 224-264.
i think the title says it all.....the easy ones from the Beatles music book........More Regged up beatles but no Elvis he has gone off in a sulk he never did like them and he thinks were doing too much of them.......

Can i get a little whisky in this water said John
The day the world stopped being fair
I didnt know what to say so I said yeah.
I poured a double whisky and I placed it in his hand
And said friend, only true friends understand
He said friend…
It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee

was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…

Finally going to end this RPM with a slop fest.
Pretty disgusted with my efforts. I did have some fun though.
I feel like I just gave birth to a full set of Ludwigs.
High gloss black of course.
Still reminds me of a 70's tv show but all i can say is it would have had to have be good one ... i would have watched it whatever just for the theme music...excellent....
I'm finally happy with this track - v1 was too much of a nothing song and it's been bugging me all the way to the last night of the challenge.

Lyrics T Boudreau
Music Jimmy T
I was off on my ways
Might even call me crazy
I said, 'Baby brother,

He said 'from one to another,

I was out on a break…
Summers Gone
lyrics - t.boudreau
music - j. tramontano ; t. boudreau
The stars are bright, they burn my eyes tonight
I wish I knew which one was mine
If shes only give me a sign (ya know)
The autumn chill cuts through a sweater…
The Morning Came
lyrics - t boudreau

If i thought i needed more it'd be for selfish reasons
If i didn't think that i had it all i'd be kidding myself
So whats ever left out there it's for your taking
Remember…

Anyone else still writing songs?
this is the result of trying to listen to too many mixes in one day. Sometimes it's just easier to record something else.
CROSS-OVER POLYRHYTHMS
This is actually a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with **different meters** (i.e., a different numbers of beats/measure) are played at the **same tempo**: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms…

Like the laid back hippy feel of this and "a toast". Love the poetry and the lyrics.
You've been very productive recently, I can't keep up. All good stuff :)
Trippy!
groovy!!
Yay, super cool, nice irig/app thingy! Whatever, super cool! (signed, child of the fifties!)
Oh, I love that drum! Superb delivery Reg with perfect music. Cor, he reads heavy books.

This was a great collab guys! Really a fun listen. LG
Mean and Moody, love it

OH! Smooth! Wonderful rhythm, is that Bossanova? This is lovely Reg. Dear Reg, this could be the prelude to a few more interesting encounters?
very unusual - reggae Beatles sort of?
Thats it. This year, im making it a point to fly to England and find Reg's cellar. Not only to meet the King, but also to play the £16 guitar
Good good stuff :)
