What do you sound like on Nu-ILX?

Cool guitar. I can't do that stretchy chord shape because my little finger's too short.

Excuses, excuses ; ) When I was in Ecuador, I saw fisherman with half missing fingers play stuff that would piss all over what I did there.

We need a 'What Do Your Fingers Look Like' thread.

Lots of tracks uploaded here: http://www.soundcloud.com/doglatin

^^^ warning - contains a terrible cover of Ignition (Remix)

Theres a post yr elbow thread, so why not fingers?

Heh, that cover took balls. Might go over well in germany w/ that digi riddim and a white MC doing it in patois

We should have a thread where beatsmiths make riddims for people to put guitar/ vocals etc over

I'm on the left, in the dark, wielding a red Jazzmaster.

Great sound and chops, Dr. C!

Thanks! :)

temporarily converting my poemtumblr into a musictumblr as I try to write+record a song per day throughout the month of april — been covering a bunch of songs I like and think are "well-written" for practice/preparation — here is my crack at an underrated Destroyer gem

retooling my sound for the country market:

i took my favorite songs that i've done on my own over the past couple of years, made an album of them, and put it on bandcamp. i've probably put some of these songs up here individually before so sorry about that: http://scarequotes.bandcamp.com/

we did a show with a new group this weekend. the other bands played doom metal and we somewhat tried to fit in http://vimeo.com/22160738

What instrument is being played by the guy sitting to the right of the keyboard player? Looks like he's doing some mixer feedback but then there's something else further down that I can't make out.

he's mostly using an old record player and a piece of aluminium foil through a mixer and some effects. so as soon as everyone else starts playing in such a small setting it's basically a noisy microphone...

This is my album. I wanted to do a little more continuity work and also see about getting an actual release, but I no longer have the time to spend on it. It's melodic detroit/houseish/video game-ish electronic music.

BURNERS

bump for the weekday

gr8 burner rev

For the nerds: I did a musical analysis of "A Rose for Emily" by The Zombies. Part 1, Part 2.

apart from the recording (especially the vocals) being a bit on the quiet side, I'm quite happy with how this one turned out

folky story-song — pretty happy with how this one turned out!

dj tool disco edit of Undercover Agent For the Blue by Tony Joe White.
Wanted to see what 'swamp house' would sound like. Kind of went for a slo mo riff looping vibe. think it turned out quite well.

my album: http://doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/4745181225/the-dwindling-party-i-know-i-know-this-is

oh yeah, I downloaded that after you posted it on tumblr — only listened once through but I liked what I heard!

hey bernard, who are you on tumblr?

oh wait, i see you're bloodletters -- been digging the stuff you've posted lately! i'm not "on tumblr" that much so i need to remind myself to check your page more often.

funnily, my record got reviewed in a few places locally. my favorite line from the denver av club: "It’s not all great, but there are definitely a few gems in the rough in the mix." Bring on the faint praise! Also, I was referred to as "the professorial rocker," so .... win?

haha, nice! "the professorial rocker" is a pretty awesome compliment in my book (although maybe less so if you're under 30? would still be totally thrilled to be called that, though!)

I mis-read that as "the professional rocker".

i am over 30 and i have a coat with elbow patches, so i guess it fits. i am not a professional rocker in any sense of the word "professional."

I found an old cd of my rap beats the other day! They're pretty nice, too. I'm kind of reticent to post them tho cause they are heavily (HEAVILY) tagged with my parents phone number.

lol

lol

can you not re-tag them?

maybe his parents phone number is the chorus

more like what did u sound like when u were more creative...this is the album i made in 2007. uploaded in its entirety for the first time tho IMM regulars may recognize some old jams.

I mean, I'm saying over and over on them "My name is R***** G*****. I made this beat. If you are interested in it, you can contact me at ###-###-####."
