Download & Listen to COMP TOGETHER - ILX Covers The Beatles (Available Now!)

yet I still did mine in about an hour

This is going to be so awesome.

I've got the megaupload activated, I'll get them on Soundcloud this weekend and yes, we'll be all set for Monday.

Wound up with 16 or 17 tracks. Shortest one is just over a minute. Longest one is like 8:25.

Whoa, nice! I figured there might be a delay just because these things always take longer than you expect. Looking forward to hearing it!

also, i think the casual use of the phrase "I've got the megaupload activated" would blow people's minds in 1953

i can imagine william gibson writing that in an early draft of Neuromancer and giving himself a grin in the mirror, like, "you magnificent bastard, you've done it again"

Shortest one is just over a minute. Longest one is like 8:25.

ts: "Wild Honey Pie" vs "Revolution 9"

an 8 minutes "wild honey pie" would be interesting !

now I regret I didn't have that idea...

a one minute Revolution 9 could be great

ok, let's start a COMP TOGETHER vol.II !!

I tried to update the name in my database when I got a submission, but not always maybe.

da croupier not full name plz

sorry. should've thought of that before posting the list.

lol @ Paul MarioKarntey
As for me it's AlXTC, please.
thanks !
(damn, I still have this 8 minutes wild honey pie in mind... maybe for another ILX project !)

weatheringdaleson -- all lower case thx

haha, i think mine is the longest one. i wish it was twice as long! looking forward to this. thx to pplains for doing it.

Hi, I don't see "Alsatian Davies" there...

Got 'em.

Keeping a spreadsheet is hard, I don't know how jaymc does it.

snoball is all lower case, thanks!

oh lol I completely forgot about this, oops

I'll just be Ismael for this one please. If one name is good enough for Prince or Madonna ...

so we should call you...isma.....

oh never mind, i'm sorry

The Roswell Incident is credited properly, but the track still sucks.

(boy i hope I did this right.)

Just in time to celebrate what would have been George Harrison's 70th birthday, it's time to MEET THE BEATLES.

(AS COVERED BY ILX.)

A guaranteed time is splendid for all!

This is one chill covers comp.

Great cover! I am so looking forward to this.

i like this pete worst cut, whoever made it!

the instrumental ending to within you without you is so gnarly

good stuff so far - maybe there should be a new thread to announce the release so that people who didn't record songs find out about it?

Good idea. Maybe I can petition a mod to alter the thread title.

WYWY has the second-most plays on my iTunes from this list.

The first is Paul MarioCartney since it's short and I damn near crack up anytime I hear it.

.. or put it on ILE

That is tremendous. And beautifully sequenced. Well done all!

(maybe even a new thread for this, and a fanfare)

yeah this is sounding awesome so far! kudos, y'all.
[early fave is tarfumes' -- maybe the best cover i've heard of that one! better than sonic youth!]

yeah wywy is definitely a stunner - tarfumes did you play the drums on that? great chops

also like the galaxie 500-esque version of tomorrow never knows a lot

I really should have remastered mine once the extension was announced. It's too quiet.

Loving these so far. Paul MarioKartney is brilliant, "Her Majesty" took an amazing left turn, a da croupier's made me a little frightened (in a good way).

(and thanks, tylerw & n/a!)

This whole thing is so great.

Tarfumes! <3 <3 Drumming is amaaaaazing

heyy, if your track is under another name than your posting name, can you let everyone know who you are? maybe that's upthread, not sure.
i'm forces at work, i know scare quotes is n/a ...
and yeah, i've found that my only idea when it comes to covering a song is: "what would galaxie 500 sound like if they played this song."

weinventyou here on the internet

ah yes, i knew that one too -- that "long long long" is quite lovely.

I am Pete Worst.

i figured that was you, crutis. great work as usual.

xpost

oh, you were forces at work! i liked that one a lot, it has a nice after the goldrush/recording in a smoky room in the basement kind of feel, in the best possible way.

It's funny it nearly all turned out so mellow. I'm glad I didn't the chance to do the miami bass wywy I had planned.

Long Long Long and Good Night are my favourites, I think.

I was tickled with how deconstructive the content was. Most of these don't even really sound like Beatle songs.

Put this in another board's hands and every song would've sounded like The Rutles.

I told ZS in an email that he should've tagged his Long Long Long with eight minutes of a Blue Nun bottle spinning around.

crut haack

whole thing is a good mix of irreverent goofs and inspired bliss outs.

holy shit tarfumes
