here we go...
my "Clap Hands" which started out as a raggae cover, but got horribly horribly off track,
my briefcase, it's the only song in it

Re: TapeOp's Rain Dogs
cheers Madpie & Shabbaddo.
Yes the creaks at the end are my piano stool, I'm not much of a piano player and took forever to play it without fucking up and didn't want to track it again. I kinda like it now. As for pops? I'll check it again (my monitoring setup sucks) but yes there are a couple of edit points on the bass.
Ben, Alex. fantastic job, really sweet.
Madpie your version is really creative. I likes!
Yes very minimal. I recorded a second piano part and some single note guitar and synth stuff but couldn't get them to work in the mix so I dropped them out.I like it, it's minimal and clear, but the feeling is there. Hard to think of a better way to do it. A difficult song to cover for sure, but you did a great job.
is that your chair making the sound at the end? There's some little pop sounds like edit points I heard in the middle

Your piano playing sounds super OM15.2, I like your stark version alot!OM15.2 wrote:...Yes the creaks at the end are my piano stool, I'm not much of a piano player and took forever to play it without fucking up and didn't want to track it again.

Re: TapeOp's Rain Dogs
Awesome. Really fucking super Phil. The first guitar riff, the one that comes in on the right and plays that pattern all the way thru, what did you use? It sounds exactly like the opening of the Who's "A Legal Matter".trashy wrote:here we go...

Re: TapeOp's Rain Dogs
Thanks! That's a tele through that little solid state "checkmate 16 bass and organ amp" that I'm always going on about. Neck pickup only. I used a 635 running through my tascam board on the amp, and a tapeop omni as a room mic.joeysimms wrote: Awesome. Really fucking super Phil.

Sorry about delays. Things here are still insane. I hope to get something done really soon.

Re: TapeOp's Rain Dogs
Wow, some pretty cool tracks so far. But... everybody has such *young* voices! After years of cultivating a Waits voice it's weird to hear the vocals any other way.

Re: TapeOp's Rain Dogs
yeah, I'm not a smoker, and I'm young, so any attempts to gruff up my voice are at best a passable cookie monster. so I go with what I have ;)Scodiddly wrote: But... everybody has such *young* voices!

Re: TapeOp's Rain Dogs
Yeah, I can actually do a pretty good Tom Waits/Louie Armstrong style growl/sing, but I figured that would just be doing an imitation. To make the cover more my own, I decided to sing it pretty much in my own style and then use effects to roughen up my voice.Scodiddly wrote:Wow, some pretty cool tracks so far.

But I did get drunk before singing the vocals, which helped.
oh yeah.... BUMP!

Re: TapeOp's Rain Dogs
Dear God why have I never spent time in off-topic? That is one of my all-time top five favorite albums. I feel like a big chunk of life has passed me by while I sat there filling out a NAMBLA subscription form. I would have been so on that shit!
