ye. the new long-awaited old-school hip-hop eighties-track (with several hyphens in the name) is online. we were sitting in the studio / livingroom.. then suddenly, the eighties hit us. this track is no-eq, no-pan, flat, snare w/ reverb eighties-style. . |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aw, come on, people. I even "rap." on it (me = the guy who is trying to take the girl.. I say something about the other guys hair being full of piss (although the original lyrics said "this guy here is full of piss.") |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I'm going to my mother's house shortly - I shall download it there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I will listen to it (with my ears) when I get home |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
with your ears! wow! I'm honoured! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am now leaving for my mother's abode.... listening will commence in 10-15 minutes(!) |
||||||||
|

Well, that was an interesting experience! teehee ... You certainly have a distinctive rapping style, dM, and who is the girl in it? The only technical thing I noted was this: "2nd time lead guitar sound -- more reverb, less treble EQ" That lead guitar sound intrudes too much after its first showing. Apart that, you certainly captured the era :D |

thanks for listening. yeah, my flow is unbeatable (or maybe it is...). The girl is a friend of ours.. she is incredibly good at singing, and she has taken singing-lessons as well... she also plays cello, but not on this track. I'll try to "dampen" the guitar the second time... (what did you think about the ending? the synth/guitar-duo?! hahah!) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh yeah :D Well, I liked the synth (sounding like a saxophone-pad setting of some sort!) - the guitar work was a little uninspired ;) But I liked the guitar at the very end - that fasssst bit :D |

Darn, I left my headphones at home today... I'll listen to it tomorow... |

Cheeeeeze! Amusing track, Mastah! May I ask you what you recorded this on? |
||||||||
|
|

mic: some broken shure instrumental-mic (we are actually buying a new mic today, so...) mixer: behringer eurorack (or something like that...), 5-channels. recorder: a computer... sequencer: acid pro 4.0 drums: reason guitar: some electric guitar through a behringer v-amp synth: roland xp-30 (that's the bass and the chords) |

HAHAHAHA this song is a knee slapper |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's true |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Nice... A new mic seems like a wise investment, I think I heard some clipping-like noises on the vocal there... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no.. not clipping... "chopping." the mic creates small clicks when we record voices. |
||||||||
|

have you tried a pop filter? get yer momma's old pantyhose and a clothes-hanger made of steel wire, and make something that looks like . it cuts out air-heavy sounds like p's. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've done that and it works great but I need a new mic and so does the Mastah apparently... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have an old tandberg mic that i bought at some fretex store for 30kroner, and it popped like mothertrucker, so i made me a filter. now it doesn't pop, but sound shite nontheless. good for lo-fi stuff though. planning on investing in a better mic soon. |
||||||||

mic: the one we're buying is on sale at hagstrøm. ADK-genesis-GC1. 995,- popfilter: yeah, that's not the problem with the one we've got.. we have a.. popfilter of the caliber you described. |

Congrats! |

that doesnt sound like hip hop, be it old, middle, or new school it sounds like someones idea of a bad joke electro track |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ehm.. compare it to a cross-over between Run-DMC and Afrika Bambaataa, and you'll see that it's really hip-hop. |
