"Now That's What I Call ILX" (comp # whatever: we cover/mutilate/remix the POP HITS of the day)

Oh yeah, mine is done, too. Well, it was done weeks ago but I'm still contemplating swapping a siren synth sound for a crumhorn after the medieval music workshop at Lewes Castle last weekend. Should we pop them on Soundcloud and just add them to a group or something?

i wanted to do Super Bass but couldn't find an acapella :(

Broken Record (Madrigal Breakdown mix):

http://soundcloud.com/karendtregaskin/broken-record-madrigal

No idea what sound quality that is at (probably pretty poor) let me know if you'd rather an AIFF version and I'll toss it on YSI.

(My original demo is on that Soundcloud, too, with the metallic siren synth and sounding a lot more like the original but Lex actually suggested taking it off - I'd scored out a string quartet and it was occupying exactly the same sonic space, too busy)

my laptop has been acting wonky, and the new one i ordered hasn't shipped yet. in the meantime, i will pull this together the best i can. send links to j o d y . b e t h ***at*** g m a i l ***dot*** c o m

high-quality files appreciated: aiff, wav, 320kbps mp3, as long as it's nothing weird that i can't open.

This is nice!

received so far:

reverend
karen d tregaskin
n/a

rather than repeat the list from upthread about who was gonna submit what at the time, i'd rather know where you're all at now, if you still plan to contribute, and what song you're going with ultimately.

I need to send a new version. I adjusted the mix a bit.

I still plan on contributing. I am ruminating deeply over "tik tok".

I am working on mine.

will have it in by june 12

we can push it back. end of june (sunday the 26th)?

^^^from upthread.

oh ok! still.

I have decided the tempo.

I'm currently tinkering around with mixes.

BTW I'm still doing Rihanna's 'S&M'.

omg I so want in on this let me think of a song first

I will do "No Surprise" by Daughtry

snoball, i love it!

in my possession so far:

karen d. tregaskin - broken record
scare quotes (n/a) - 6 foot 7 foot
snoball - s&m (new title noted, lol)
reverend dollars (the rev) - unthinkable

I still need to send you the better mixed version.

Maybe if it'd been covers of the entire Now #1

if someone wants to take on this project, i'm all for it!

Ok, new version: http://soundcloud.com/reverenddollars/alicia-keys-unthinkable-1

I can have something for sunday 26th june, and it's now likely to be "Nothin' on You" by B.o.B.

or that song about barbra streisand

NO I CHANGED MY MIND I WANT TO DO "BARBRA STREISSAND" BY DUCK SAUCE

hahahahahaaha

stevie D are you really doing it?

maybe we can all collaborate somehow by sending in our bit... i want to hear ned say barbra streissand.

I'm gonna liberate my 4-track!

I can do any song, because it won't sound like the original anyway - was thinking maybe of doing "Born this Way" - i only will use my casio pt-10, toy accordian, rap and sing keyboard and cardboard boxes/water bottles to make the sounds.

Or maybe I'll do GaGa's "Hair".

casio pt-10

I have one of these! I can recommend the 'fantasy' preset through a big reverb.

I can recommend swirling it over a microphone with the keys held down for UFO sounds!

how we doin'?

pretty good (although still awaiting to hear which song stevie d decided to do!)

at this point my life is p crazy and despite decent effort I don't think I'm going to be able to ACTUALLY get anything done/finished, so feel free to do "Barbra Streisand" (or that Daughtry song I claimed earlier)

mine is pretty crazy too - will try my best to make a good version!

I have the instrumental part p much done but I haven't had a chance to record vocals yet!!

i can have this finished around sunday this week.

I've been at an impasse on mine for several weeks now. I have one idea that might salvage it, but I'll need a few days. Otherwise, I could maybe make what I've done so far available for someone else to tinker with? I dunno, I probably shouldn't have even bothered with this.

i'm cool with an extension. i haven't received that many tracks yet anyway.

I started my track but yeah need more time

I'm *almost* done -- just tweaking a few things.

same here. almost (watching pulp got in the way last weekend)

is this still a thing? cuz I've got a rough mix now.

it is still a thing, even if we have to put it out as a mini-LP instead of our usual night-of-a-thousand-ilxors.

St Swithins Day has been and gone, and we will have 40 more days of ILX0rs be finishing their mixes, I guess?

did you ever get jaymc/ken c's?

After much anguish, mine was sent and received.

hi guys my mac exploded last week and together with my recording on garageband. i can do it again but it'll take a couple of weeks (and try and find a good PC program to record on my laptop), so don't wait for me if you're all ready :(

sent my track

spent days trying to fix a digital glitch in best take of main vocal track, if you hear it just smile and pretend you didn't

got it!

who else is still in for this? my track is done.

would love to have at least 10 songs; we have 7 right now.
