Woo hoo!! Rick finally comes thru!!!

Downloading now, Bro!

Ha ha ha! LOL pretty cool stuff, rick Bangin those drums pretty well, there. Your voice is good, too. It's good to finally to hear something from you. Creative stuff.

Recording is actually pretty clean. This is one I'd have to sit down and analyze (with ears ) to figure out if anything was wrong.

The twisted vocoder voice is too much man LOL.

[fenderlikingood]

Yeah.. "Satan" there at 0:50...

How did you record them thar drums, btw? Pretty nice job; better that I would do on live drums.

Ok... constructive stuff? The only thing I can think of, at this point, is that this is just a quickie song. If you had time to create an actual arrangement... with well-placed instrumentation, it would reflect more as a "song" when you were done producing it. It's a fun recording right now, at any rate.

Even so, it shows really good creativity with the breaks in rhythm... and change-ups. Kinda reminds me of samicide-lite, or something... good for grins, anywho.

yeeeeeeeeehawwwwwwww!

thank's Kramer!!!!!!! i was hoping i would get a couple laugh's out of this!!!! i was down by the swamp thursday(waycross)
i didn't see ya??


chad, yeah i did this for pure fun (and to finally get something posted!!) i just thought i would try to pick that brain of yours!! all your comments are constructive, i was just trying to squeeze ya!!! your an asset here!!!

i recorded the dums with an SM57 on snare, Beta 52 in the kick, and a A.T. PR99 shoved between the toms.......eurorack 802A, SBlive, C.E.P. (THE POOR MANS RIG!!)

that voice @0.50, and the growl after, was me swallowing an SM57!! the breathing stuff in the background was done the same way.

thank's again!!!!!!!!! i appreciate each and every comment!!

peace

It's almost winter so I was probably practicing my hibernation technique.
Damn if it aint cold in Ga. tonight too!Dogs play tomorrow in the SEC Championship game against Arkansas.There's still a small chance They could end up in the National Championship if they win and Miami loses.It's a long shot but it's something.

OK,back to normally scheduled programming!

 

[fenderlikingood]

woof!!!!!!!

i hear ya Kramer!! i need to be hibernating right now!!!!!! my wife has the heat on "melt", but here in "my" room, i have the window open. i hate the heat!! when i was down that way thursday, the temp reached 64, when it wasn't raining!! by the time 6 'o clock rolled around, the temp had dropped more than 20 degrees!!

sound's like your going to be on the edge of your seat for the game tomorrow!!!

it would be cool if the DAWG'S did it!!!! last time they made it was back in the herchel walker day's, i think???? agains't notre dame??

anyway, GO DAWG'S!!! I'M GOING TO BED NOW

peace

[Lt. Bob]

Dammit!.......it should be us ( LSU ) playing Georgia instead of Arkansas. I couldn't believe we lost that game.

 

[MISTERQCUE]

[Toki987]

twas a good playback on all the instruments. I like that vocal thingy, it might make me a good singer, you sounded fine. Back in about 72 I would be in the right mind to listen to that for hours I`m coming to Atlanta to see my Buddy soon It would be great to sit in with you somewhere.... I can bring some duct tape and fuzzy cat.

[Stratomaster]

Haha -It's about time you posted something man! It was a fun listen for sure. An sblive? I feel for ya man! Actually it sounds pretty darn good...Hope we don't have to wait till next year to hear a tune from you again....enjoyed it..

 

[B.SABBATH]

OMG!!!!

I didn't see that one coming at all! too funny man..

you have a good voice, you should try to use your powers for good instead of evil!

thanks for the pick me up, I needed it!

 

[Sennheiser]

That was too funny! Good recording for a "quicky". Everything sounded up front and clear.

How you'd you get Darth Vader to come to your studio?

 

[Guernica]

[Kramer]

Dammit!.......it should be us ( LSU ) playing Georgia instead of Arkansas. I couldn't believe we lost that game.

It was payback by the football gods for what you guys did to kentucky on the last play of the game.

 

[chrisharris]

FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC!!!

FAN-FREAKIN' TASTIC

 

[fenderlikingood]

rick

 

[chrisharris]

i plugged a pop in dean markley pick up into a death metal distortion pedal!!!! LOL!!

Rick...I missed that in your original post. Nice job...

Acoustics...is there anything they CAN'T do??? I figured out it's a whole lot easier to EQ a distorted git than an electric, b/c you have to keep the lows WAY down to cut down on the feedback, so when it comes time to mix...they're done.

Anyway, I can tell from this little clip that you can seriously sing...Let us hear one? C'mon, I know you've got a few old recordings laying around somewhere. PLEASE? See, you're always pretty generous with your time, so I'd be surprised if you didn't get about 50 replies to this or more. Throw another one up on your page right quick. Did I say please yet?
