Heh, I'd kick your ass, and have the sampled crowd cheering for me.

I'd take your ass, mangle it through Reaktor to create a sick Venetian Snares/Aphex Twin Hybrid, then feed the remains to the crowd and sample their being sick on the dancefloor

Anyone care to put a small wager on this battle? My money's on IZ (of course!)

Us Belgians should stick together

AND as a former Black Metal bandmember, my imagination is almost inexhaustable on the "gore and innards" department!

Oh, and I put a fiver on Dark

I though that was DEATH metal, but what do I know...

Betting against yourself? I smell a big payoff here. Talked to any Chinese lately?

I have been silent on the downside about the output so far (because it has been very high - Mish and Raf), but that is definitely required.
And stick yer 'vs' up yer 'Erses, let us get project#1 finished!

Ye can do aw yer other bollocks after that.

Dark · 28 Nov 2006, 08:27

Just wait. I have 5 songs in the pipeline, which will (hopefully) kick everyone's asses back to 1991.

Brad · 01 Dec 2006, 21:14

My version of "Will I Dream" is near completion.

Expect an online version later next week once I get the damn vocals right.

James Blast · 02 Dec 2006, 01:02

Added to the 1st post.

Very very good, actually. The HAL samples at the start were a nice thing. I still don't like the song, but that's more a fault of the song itself than it is of your interpretation, which is mighty fine, and - dare I say it - is another candidate for the "Beat that Von" awards.

I don't see any problems with the vocals - maybe you're being a bit too hard on yourself?

Brad · 06 Dec 2006, 00:56

I am just wanting to re-record the vocals with a little more gusto and Andrew's revised lyrics.

Otherwise, I am damn happy with the instrumental arrangement/sound.

James Blast · 06 Dec 2006, 01:17

Nice job, Brad!

now Sir Izbert of Belgique, some sprinklings please.

Methinks!

and thanks Michael for the linky

Hi Methedrome, had a listen to your version, and I understand exactly what you mean.

The vocals sound like someone just singing along with his iPod on his heid. Very gentle, not much bravoure, a bit afraid to wake up the neighbours baby, or so it seems

Maybe sing it again, stand some way off the mike, and give it yer bestest shot. Could also do with some room reverb IMO...

But the instrumentals are ace! Don't alter a thing there !

IZ.

Brad · 07 Dec 2006, 21:57

I have tried re-recording the vocals, but they are just not getting any better. I have remixed them and it sounds a little better. Will post an updated (and hopefulyl final) version soon.

mh · 07 Dec 2006, 22:05

I quite like the vocals as they are. They sound very laid-back and detached, which is a nice contrast with the snarly music.

James Blast · 07 Dec 2006, 23:38

Yeah but, you interfere with Airdales, Michael

After much prevaricating and some time wasting, behold the Todashi cover of Still.

However, it's not finished - it's missing vocals, so there's the deal. If anyone thinks they can

a) figure out the mumbled words found on the bootlegs doing the rounds and

b) sing in a semi-decent baritone, feel free to add a vocal track.

Simply record it as a Wav or Aif and send it back to me to be mixed in and finished. Bingo.

Otherwise, this will have to stand as some sort of instrumental. Muchos Kudos on this must go to my mate Quintin, beat master and all round boffin extraordinaire. I merely plucked the strings . . . he made them sing. or growl. You get the idea.

I'm with IZ on the vocal thing. Otherwise the track is indeed a fine one! Good job there!
