So I had a nice little session with my brother today. He plays the guitar and I play synths. We started out with playing a simple C-F-D-G pianoriff and made it loop. Then I made some lush pads that I looped with the piano. He then picked up his guitar and plucked along and I jammed with him using the warmest monolead I could squeeze out of my synth. The good thing with monoleads is I can play them with one hand and use the other hand on the cutoff/resonance to make the synth scream when I want to. We recorded it to tape and it sounds pretty lush in my opinion. I wish we had EQ'ed the guitar a tad first though, the highs are a little too loud compared to the rest (well, it was steel strings). Anyway, here's the track: |

This is weird, but I like it. Nice jam. |

Maybe, I don't know. He's much bigger than me even though he's younger. |

I guess it kind of quirky, but it's lush :) |

it's really nice! it has that "gode gamle barnetv" feel... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it sounds kinda 70s, like the music from Look Around You this is really cool actually, you should make something of it, when your brother gets out of hospital |

Yes, I hear that a lot. Somehow my melodies tend to end up childish. |

Time will tell, I might try to get some percussion we can play too. Some maracas and maybe a tambourine. I think a drum machine might be out of question since we wont be able to keep the tempo (we suck) :p |
||||||||

if you can't keep the tempo, getting percussion is a bad idea.. it'll just make it more evident. just practice with drumloops. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hehe, I also meant that we should play the percussion by hand so it will keep the organic tempo-drifting :p |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, and that's what I mean... with percussion it'll be more evident. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Doesn't really matter that much to me though, as long as the percussion and the synths/guitars go in somewhat the same tempo :p I think it's much worse when you have really rigid drums and the rest of the instruments just fall behind. |

just get a hihat with a pedal, bobs your unk hole |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it's nice... the guitar sound does put me off though. i love the afx sounding synth |
||||||||
|

Hehe, I realize guitars are a touchy thing when it comes to electronic music, but my brother isn't really into any electronic, just laidback acoustics. So it had to be this way :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you know, i mean, what he's playing is nice... it's just too much of the high end... just needs some eq as you've said |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, but the thing is that none of this were planned. He just brought his guitar and plugged it into my mixer and started plucking and then after some minutes I decided to play along with him so I put on the recorder and started playing too. If we had planned to do it we would have prepared the setup more I guess :p Maybe next time |

make a fucking album + tape-e-fy = hero's i've commented on the song being beautyfull over msn already, but i'll just say it again. It's beautyfull :') |
||||||||

I would love it if the high guitar notes where stripped off, and some vocals where added. That little wobbly synth is great, and sort of 70ish as other say. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll talk to my brother about it, maybe we can make a couple of planned out tracks with some real composition behind it, but still play it live of course. |
