Fiveironguy....that was great! Brings back Simon and Garfunkle memories.

 

[true-eurt]

DeeExpus....good song and good hearts!!

 

[true-eurt]

Track....I listened to all your Christmas songs. Great Acoustic work!

 

[true-eurt]

Erik...that is a rocking bass line...nice sax too.

 

[Track Rat]

Thanks True.

 

[true-eurt]

Thanks True.

You are welkom.

Has anyone heard from Madmush lately?

 

[Blue Bear Sound]

I did this one back in '92 (early Midi experiments!)

Carol Of The Bells

 

[Track Rat]

It sounds cool Bruce but this tune is ruined for me. Everytime I hear it alls I can think of is "Ding, fries are done. Ding fries are done".

 

[true-eurt]

Bruce....one of my favorite Christman songs made better!

 

[Dogman]

WOW!!!! Nice sounds all around. Very cool thread. I just might have to try something.....

 

[bigbubba]

I agree, cool bass. Nice arrangement. Rocking listen. Cool ending.

Cool! This is one of those tunes that will immediately put you in the Christmas mood.

Merry Christmas to all. I did these a few years ago.

Pretty cool. Oh Little Town Of Bethlehem sounds like it should be played around the fire on the eve. Actually, that one and Oh Christmas Tree both also sound like something someone would do as part of the Christmas Carol program at the church. I'm a big fan of those carol programs.

Rocking bass line!

Thanks, dude! I love MIDI I wish I could play that in real life.

Why thank you, TE! I had to break out the old soprano for this one. I lleft my alto at work! I hate using sop. on anything other than classical -- too many people write it off as Kenny G automatically.

 

[Erik713]

I agree, cool bass. Nice arrangement. Rocking listen. Cool ending.

Thanks, bro! I decided to work a little on my vocoder. The carrier is just the pad changing the chords. The modulator is a drum computer set on a simple loop. That's what you hear in the intro and the ending. Fun stuff!! Thanks for the listen.

Bruce, I like that one a lot. Even though it's simple midi, it's still mixed very well, IMHO. Each part has its own little space and they blend nicely. Rock!

Mike - This stuff is awesome. I always love listening to your music. I'm never disappointed. Great guitar work, and the recordings are very true sounding.

 

[Erik713]

Great idea.

the old webby is still up too, though not updated. www.barnesaid.com

Cool idea It sounds like there was a good amount of time put into the recording. It's hard to mix all those different voices successfully!! People put lots of time in on just ONE voice!

 

[Erik713]

Here's my contribution:
Silent Night, Holy Night

Whoa! Trippy. Man, I like the chord changes in the piano behind the strange lead voice. Nice soft pad too. It's a nice touch!

 

[Erik713]

your not serious about the whole CHRISTmas thing are you... I dont see why it would be bad to say CHRISTmas. anyways here is my contribution.
god rest ye merry gentlemen.. i recorded this 3 years ago when i was just a youngen.. second thing i ever recorded.

Nice! I like the jam atmosphere on this one. I can imagine a bunch of guys sitting around a fire doing this. The multi-tracked vocals work nicely. I like the harmonies in the vocals too! I'm all about harmonizing everything...probably to a fault

At one time I was going to do REALLY rockin' versions of all the popular Christmas songs but then Trans-Siberian Orchestra happened and I gave up.... QUICKLY...
