I threw together this dubby house number the other day via Audacity: http://soundcloud.com/edb-i/do-puff-drive-mercedes
If someone can honestly tell me whether or not this is simply trite paint by numbers dubby deep house I would really appreciate it. I suspect it is, I just would like another opinion.

i like it
but you could fit what i know about "dubby deep house" in a thimble
it reminded me of burial just cuz of the vocal chop up thing, but that's probably just because burial is the only thing remotely like this that i've listened to a lot.
not sure if that's helpful but i enjoyed it.

Lovin EDB's track.
Here's an acoustic demo for a song I'm going to go in and record with my band. I was really trying to work out how to do vocal harmonies and what would work:

I guess I should give some comment on the track I just posted earlier. First fruits of my collab w/ my sometime dj partner. He's kind of an old dnb head/dubstep goon, so we're coming from a bit different directions, but we're both very happy with this track.
― The Reverend, Monday, 20 August 2012 22:29 (eleven years ago) link
Giving Rev's track a spin... Very very cool. Love this colourful ice creamy sound.

nice track rev!

Hahaha, this was kind of a last minute inclusion that I've since decided I really need to replace.
An thanks all for the kind words!

Naw, fuck it. It works.

I was just being an obnoxious trainspotter.
been good about practicing my folk guitar, been fucking with open tunings, never really used them before....this one is the something i wrote last night while watching the Pentagram documentary on Netflix....kinda falls apart right at the end but i kinda happy with it.

UMS - I'm at work now, but as a fellow amateur fingerpicker I'm interested in this.
PS, did anyone listen to my song? I hate to ask, but I'd like to get some feedback before laying down money to go into a studio and getting it recorded properly. It really is just a demo, but the structure and lyrics are pretty much there.
― Here's that tenner I owe you, asshole (dog latin), Wednesday, 22 August 2012 15:54 (eleven years ago) link
oh yeah i forgot to post....i liked it, and i think it would benefit from more instrumentation and production....but the vocal stuff is interesting not many ppl try to do stuff like that anymore
― Jandek at the Disco (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 22 August 2012 16:35 (eleven years ago) link
Hey cheers UMS. It's interesting you say that because I was going for an almost self-consciously retro approach to songwriting. I wanted to do a song about mods and rockers, but have it apply to pretty much any area of teen culture and the difficulty of trying to fit in and wanting to find ones place in a scene and all that kind of thing. But on the whole it kind of just evolved and I didn't necessarily TRY to make it sound old-fashioned, so what you say there is p interesting to me, because I've no idea exactly what it is I was doing that not many people don't do any more... Don't know if that makes sense.
Street Dentist - yeah great name and a great beat. Love the orchestra samples and the 808 work. What software you using at the moment? I like the idea of producing "rhythms" or even "riddims". I'd like to release a whole album simply made up of beats for people to MC over - something along the lines of http://www.souljazzrecords.co.uk/releases/?id=23718
Now for Anabelle... I don't often fuck with different tunings myself and I'd really like to try and learn more about it. But this is really sweet and it sounds like you've got it nailed (particularly the tricky chord switch halfway through the bar). Sounds like you're using an acoustic with metal strings. I found moving to nylons opened up a huge new world for me, but like running with sandbags I can no longer play my old acoustic without a pick unless I want to have very sore fingers.
Great work all round mate.

Pplains your track made my smile - like what Paul's Boutique might have sounde like if they'd spent most of their budget on ketamine

finally got around to adding a few tracks to soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/scarequotes-1"that american life" is a woozy beat"burning life" is a slow pop song on a bed of ebow"the joke that tells itself" is a blown-out instrumental

digging that ebow tune, n/ai put up the most recent thing I've recorded: http://soundcloud.com/tylerwilcox/now-you-knowvery short! think it might be a ripoff of a GBV song, but I'm not sure which one.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 28 August 2012 14:27 (eleven years ago) link
sounds good but yeah very GBV
― congratulations (n/a), Tuesday, 28 August 2012 14:30 (eleven years ago) link
Fwiw pollard probably isn't sure which old gbv song he's ripping off at this point
― Jandek at the Disco (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 28 August 2012 14:55 (eleven years ago) link
lol yes. i actually wrote that song when i was a teenager (and probably at the height of alien lanes mania), but just re-recorded it last month.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 28 August 2012 15:03 (eleven years ago) link
sounds great nick, esp. 'that american life' (ha), real legit.
― 40oz of tears (Jordan), Tuesday, 28 August 2012 15:14 (eleven years ago) link
thanks, just did that one this past week and i'm pretty happy with it, gonna try to do some more sample-based stuff with a similar feel
― congratulations (n/a), Tuesday, 28 August 2012 15:15 (eleven years ago) link
but we'll see if that actually happens
