  1. Elyse Weinberg , a strange folky kind of offering that i got from my sisters collection on the basis that she never heard it again I think it is superb
  2. [quote name='the boy' timestamp='1445637615' post='2893113'] I'm in this month. A slightly longer than I usually submit but it felt right so I let it run. It's missing a riff or something but I've no more time over the next two days so this is it. That said I like it so I hope others do as well. I imagined the guy in the picture as a saviour of the depressed who would spread colour in people's lives but only if they wanted it..... https://m.soundcloud.com/theboysings/these-colours-are-for-you [/quote] I only managed to listen on my phone , but the boy can most definitely sing , great work , I played out loud , and as we had been listening to radio 1 on the phone , Lurksalittle was quite amazed when I told her that this was a song in our little competition , and not on radio 1
  3. [quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1445676417' post='2893249'] Of course I'm right. The only time I'm not right is when I try to tell the wife I'm right! [/quote] Wow , that makes 2 of us then
  4. Thanks for the heads up on that, I don't think I am anywhere near it ,but the lad does a lot of video editing so might fancy a go at this.
  5. with halloween coming up we have been jamming out ghostbusters , great fun , it doesn't do much, but funks along quite nicely
  6. A bizarre twist to our gig last night, the room had been split by some dividing doors since our last visit. we effectively had the band set up in one room and the PA front of house in another, it was like we were on the inside of a TV screen playing out to the room , it was noisy in our box though, one advantage was that we had plenty of space so setup and breaking down was really quick as we all had room without the normal falling over each other. Not a massive audience , but very enthusiastic , the brother-in-law is over from living abroad for a fortnight and got to see us for the first time in 2 years , so he was chuffed as well . in general a good night .
  7. [quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1444753707' post='2885640'] I've rolled mine in 3 different colours of glitter, added an antique wax finish and coated it in diamond-hard varnish. Enjoy! (or not!) http://soundcloud.com/dredd-and-the-badass-weed/say-what [/quote] That is fantastic , love it to pieces , and at 4.51 it still feels a bit short !!
  8. do you have to put all the files that come with the VST in that path or just the .dll file ? Mine all seem to work , but I rather think that it is more likely down to luck than judgement and the fact I have copied and pasted the files everywhere I can I fear if I clean up the install of them, I will lose half of my tracks
  9. We played a pub in town last night and it was quite busy ,we knock out roadhouse blues for a sound check as it is dead easy to jam out and set the levels to , and we got some great applause . Rhythm guitar gets up to the mic when we open and says 'right then , we always have a proper party when we play here and tonight is going to be no different ......OK ' and a big cheer went up ..........we had a good night a proper party
  10. One of the reasons I don't use to much VST stuff is that I can never remember how to bring them in , I have a rough idea that there is a place that you put the downloaded file , then Reaper scans the place and recognises it , but it takes me half an hour each time I do it
  11. I am in as well now , it has come out a bit Bert Kaempfert meets James Last as it happens , however , my initial ideas were to have it a bit childrens TV theme meets Herb Alpert .......middle of the road....moi so , I reckon its the closest I have got to my original idea since I first entered this challenge. https://soundcloud.com/lurksalot/emmatopia
  12. Mine is nearly there now , no lyrics on this one though, but the inspiration from the photo has taken me to a very odd place ......inside Lurksalittles head , she used to daydream a lot , still does a bit , but her head goes off to Emmatopia , and that is what the picture is , it is the place where the daughters thoughts go, mainly when she should be doing homework
  13. My cousin does a bit of acoustic stuff just outside Adelaide , but he also does musical bus tours around the outback , so he might not even be in Adelaide when you are !
  14. There is a heck of a lot going on in there , I have had a few thoughts and a style of sorts , but as usual it may turn out completely different
  15. [quote name='the boy' timestamp='1443714596' post='2877116'] Very diplomatic. [/quote] It was a bit , I'll take it though
  16. Congratulations guys , great work again
  17. [quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1443685369' post='2876805'] Looks like the polls never close! Either way, excellent songs by Bilbo and XG - congrats! And looks like I'm 2nd bridesmaid yet again... [/quote] Well, after last months flourish , I am back into my normal position in the way of things
  18. It looks like great fun, excellent .
  19. in the same vein.................. pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street that guy knew how to put words together , ed for a terrible spelling irony
  20. Wow , decent size parlour there Dad
  21. I use an app on my phone for an amp simulator and it goes inline to my scarlet2i2 via a little connector box , maybe not textbook, but when used in a special tonal environment and with great taste, it gets the occasional vote
  22. fair play , seems the best of both worlds
  23. But where is the passion ?
  24. I love that song in particular it says so much in so few words. next up... [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]What the hell is wrong with you tonight?[/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#000000]I can't seem to say or do the right thing [/color][/font][/size]
  25. great news , you may have missed 1 year , but it offers the opportunity of a few more yet to come
