i hope that means its a good thing i've never had a music lesson in my life :wink: Seriously, i agree 100%. the thing that led me astray in your first post, was the statement that slang enabled one to "get by." But to flip that into what you just said, yeah, maybe "getting by" on slanging your six o...

what's up with the uberloud tambo on king...?

I see it as kind of like speaking a language -- you can speak slang (rock,blues,etc), and get by and have a good time, even if you're not a theoretical master of the language. If people look down on you, fuck them. No offense man, i usu. enjoy reading your posts. BUT As a linguist (working on my ma...

which album is it again? S/T? haven't heard that one yet...my buddy produced All the Way Alive (which really means he just made the best possible digital transfer of a pretty crummy tape). It's available here and there still, limited edition though... Helter Skelter was a totally biased book. Everyt...

Except for Hoon, the band came from my area - as in, 20 miles from where i live. Everyone around here has some story about them, apparently the guitar players spent their entire adolescence locked in their rooms practicing. There's even a local shroom field that was supposedly the inspiration behind...

i'll get some MP3s up soon as i can - my rig's not really set up for it so...
FWIW, when i record i'm usu only singing about drugs, not using them. But i've got some great outtakes...actually, i guess the outtakes kind of explain why i decided the two don't mix

thanks guys for bothering to read and reply. Yeah, left it alone for a week and it's taken care of itself. usual suspects, vox a bit too quiet and git a bit too loud, plus a slight notch out at 1k to let the bass pull the kit to the git. And of course, the sounds turned out to have some remaining ro...

what is this "tuning" you speak of? some type of hip new slang, as in "yeah, our band just spent six straight hours of practicing our tuning"?

sorry, had to get wiseass for a moment. when you play 30$ pawnshop prizes, all you can do is hope for the best

just theorizing here, but it seems like the kick mic would often be some degree out of phase, rather than completely out - for instance, if you've got overheads that are picking up some reasonable image of the kick, wouldn't they be 90 degrees out of phase from the kick mic? or more realistically, s...

I'm sad, my goat just fell in the hay
Sad, the piece of poop wouldn't come out of his belly
Sad, we had to call doc nelly"

this, i'm unfamiliar with - could you explain?

don't forget the masturbating groupie fish, doubtless performed to the quiet refrain of assorted bleatings and vomitus

Well, i'll be the first to admit my space is less than ideal - 12x20 with some DIY sound treatment. Nor are my monitors - a pair of 70s beasts, supplemented with two beatboxes, a boomy and a tinny, for comparison. Despite such equipment, i'm usually able to come up with mixes that translate decently...

Seriously, that?s the only explanation I?ve been able to come up with. I?ve been spending my spare time this summer tracking cover versions of the Ramones? first album. Some of their best tunes, IMO, not to mention that my newbie drumming abilities have been benefiting from those simple arrangements...

off-topic, but anyone remember remember those boxing robots, whatever the name brand was, that did all those arm and leg kicks? yeah. local band did this great video, with about ten of those doing a line dance. it was rulz
