Some positive stuff after the last posting so I'll try another. The difference is that this time it's all me (for better or worse).

The song was intended to be on our last CD but never got rehearsed so I'm playing the fiddle part.

For the technically minded it was recorded on a Zoom MRS160B. My old Strat was simply plugged into the recorder via a Jim Dunlop wah pedal. All other guitar effects are courtesy of the Zoom. Similalrly the bass and drum sounds are from the Zoom driven by a backing track in Power Tracks Pro.

I don't have any monitors yet so although it sounds great on headphones the guitar has turned out to be way too loud :D

So here it is, a diatribe against modern music and the dumbed down society that readily accepts it ;)

Music by Numbers

Over to you guys

Cheers

[font=trebuchet ms]More good stuff! :cool:

I do think you've gotta put new strings on that bass, or sharpen the tone when you record it, though.[/font]

Yep, I'm not sure how to get the cover off the Zoom though to replace the strings :) :)

Seriously though, my MP3 conversion appears to muddy the bass on all the tracks I've ripped. I must look at the settings.

Thanks for the comments.

I've a few other things on the go at the moment that I must try running past you guys but they need mixing. A couple of weeks yet.

Cheers
