Title: "Meant For You" unmastered
Post by: Don't Back Down on April 04, 2006, 05:56:43 PM
Here is an unmastered (.mp3) take I did today of "Meant For You". Since it doesn't look like Susie will get done (idigworms PM me if that can somehow be pulled off). The overdubbed section at the end needs to be louder, or does it sound fine like that? And if someone can get my laptop sound out of the song so it doesnt sound fuzzy, that would be great.

Feedback appreciated as always and asap so I can finish and turn it in.

Thanks for listening!

Not quite sure what you're going for here,
but I liked what you guys had worked up for Susie C...

What's left to be done on that one...?

I just felt like doing a take of that song. We don't have a complete backing track. I would love to finish Susie

Post by: b.dfzo on April 05, 2006, 05:57:35 AM
The backing vocals don't fit with BarryDavidThomson's unfinished backing track.  All that's needed is a backing track played in sync with the original for it to 'gel'.


Title: Re: "Meant For You" unmastered
Post by: Don't Back Down on April 05, 2006, 09:49:37 AM
yeah, what he said. I really do want to complete Susie. I wish I had the technology to produce a backing track for it.

No offence mate, but your singing is worse than the sound a thousand cats bieng brutally raped by a gang of Bulldogs.

That's a pretty extreme assessment, Barry.  Why are the kid gloves off? :(

Interesting, sort of creepy.

Barry, that comment was a little uneccessary, in my opinion. "Vocals could use some work" or something would've sufficed.

It is interesting, in a creepy sort of way. Unfortunate that it happens to be a wrong description. It is more like a bulldog in heat being satisfied by a stray cat, but I tarry with details.
    The truth of the matter is: the instrumentalist does not want this vocal associated with his work...bottom line. Although the words are harsh, I have a feeling that Barry feels strongly about his music, and if it is not interpreted correctly, I believe he has the right to veto that arrangement in no uncertain terms.

The case may be that he decided not to finish the instrumental track for that reason, and, if so, he's got a right to do that.  But does that give him carte blanche to make insensitive comments as to what his opinion of his singing is (on a different song, no less) without any deserved backlash whatsoever?  Honesty is the best policy, I agree, but not at the expense of kindness.

In no uncertain terms should one, because they wish to avoid embarrassment by association, feel free to put down someone else.


Title: Re: "Meant For You" unmastered
Post by: PMcC on April 06, 2006, 10:18:03 AM
Well, the short answer is yes. I've been around enough of them to know that musicians can be a hard lot sometimes, and many of them will feel free to tell you if you suc*k. Me, I am a bit more diplomatic with my criticism, stopping at comparing your vocal to the signalling of a faraway ship at sea. So,  get back to practicing your vocal, as it sounds quite unnatural right now. I would start with hitting the right notes, and worry about the tone later.


Title: Re: "Meant For You" unmastered
Post by: BarryDavidThomson on April 06, 2006, 11:36:17 AM
Sorry for the controversy, just thought I would be the one to say what everyone was thinking. I know i sound like a dick, but cmon, when I first started at music I was told i sucked all the time, for years, and years and years. And I still cant sing great at all, thing is though, Ive been told, and I practise hard to get better, not expecting anything but critisism.

Other people need to be told too. Simple. Its ignorant to meander around telling the truth when put in a possition when someone asks for your opinion, like in this case.

Keep trying though mate, work on your tone, and notes. Try singing in the car or something.


Cheerio

I guess I was wrong, and I am sorry for that. anybody who creates a backing track should keep their mouth closed, or risk that movie not playing from where others sit.

It's just a shame that you and BDT mask your so-called talent with a load of fucking arrogance. Sorry mang, that behavior is never going to go over here.

Thank you, Jason. I guess my backing vocals are good enough to pass as a BDT backing track any day of the week.

There is NO instrumental track for my "Meant For You" demo. BDT started on a backing track for Susie Cincinnati for the BW Tribute cd, but through BDT's ears I sounded ,
"worse than the sound a thousand cats bieng brutally raped by a gang of Bulldogs." on his track. Okay, so maybe I'm not the greatest singer in the world or on this board. Okay? I'll be honest I AM NOT. I'm just doing these things to grow and develop in my music. If that is a crime, then I am guilty. Why am I getting bruitally punished for it?

Honesty.  It's such a lonely word.

Take a gander at this.

1) Treat others as you want to be treated. Think about what you are saying before you post a message. Lift each other up, don't tear each other down. Harassment of members is not tolerated. Please behave and not be an embarrassment to the good name of Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys.  But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.  1Peter 1:15-16

Punished, nah. You're being treated to a grand revisitation of:

My first Manson wrote listen a very beutifull song sung by one Willium Axl Rose . A song called look at your game girl. Axl in fact became completley obsessed with manson. He wore a shirt very often with various masnon themed frazes, ie charlie dont surf!

Fair enough, he was very fkd up.

But, he did have a very eatherel sence of song. A song that only, in my mind, has no fear. He, and in every sence of the word had balls. His was a world of confusion, but his lyrics speak out to me.

Bottom line though, FUM HIM THE MOURDOROUS BASTARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Praise him and you are as bad as I am!

Im in no way religious, infact I hate the whole god fad. But I still feel like Ive sined for praising MANSON.

I can do quotes too!
From the book of Reuters, 6:1:06
Quote
Rafael van der Vaart suffered a fresh ankle injury when the Netherlands resumed their FIFA World Cup™ preparations on Monday.

The SV Hamburg midfielder was sidelined during Saturday's 1-0 win over Cameroon and abandoned Monday's training session after a ball struck his recently operated-on ankle.

Coach Marco van Basten told reporters: "It is obvious that his ankle is not comfortable and we will have to see how serious this injury is."

The Dutch meet Mexico in another friendly on Thursday.


Anyway...

Man oh man...it is one thing to offer criticism. I.E. "Those vocals are not good, mate". It is another to try to pull a Simon Cowell and bust out with ""worse than the sound a thousand cats bieng brutally raped by a gang of Bulldogs." There is a difference between honesty and just plain being mean. Just an observation...

However, that quote did give me an idea for a song. I'll just collect my sampler, a condenser mic, and a bite-proof suit, and to the pound I go!!!!

Truth be known though, you want this to be dragged on for as long as it can be, getting your post count up to impress the post count impressed people.

I will be the first to admit my behaviour in this thread could have been better. But I refuse to take the only blame for the atrocities in this thread.

Really, it's pointless to argue over this. No-one's going to come out on the winning end. Everyone has their agenda and everyone in this exchange has a HUGE ego, including myself.

I will make an honest effort to be more tactful in the future, but all the other moderators and I ask is that we are civil with those who decide to share music through this forum, regardless of its quality. Those of you who are more professional with your music should consider making it a mild priority to help others out in this thread. I think you guys are all capable of great things, despite some of the words that came flying out of my mouth in earlier periods of this thread.

Agreed/ Please accept my apology, everyone, for my part in this thread...I'll strive to be more supportive and less critical in the future.

That is cool of you, PMcC.  In short: "supportive criticism"?

Yeah, it's a stock I own. Bought it off of a recommendation I saw on Mad Money on CNBC. A little trivia - Cramer was the first to call himself Dr. UNH, Esquire. I was in need of a new screen name because I thought just Jason was too plain. So I added a little flourish.

It's amazing what cigarettes can do to one's voice. Look at Brian and Dennis, or Bob Dylan.. he actually has a good singing voice on Nashville Skyline.. why? He briefly gave up smoking.

George Harrison used to quit smoking cut to cut the vocals for an album, then go right back to it.  I feel Nilsson would have kept a good bit of his range (not to mention maybe be alive today) if it hadn't been for 30 years of chain-smoking. Smoking thins your voice, then takes the range, then destroys the tone, then...well, nothing takes away tone and range like a tracheostomy

It actually sounds like avant-garde brilliance in a way. Like if this was some New York art-noise Sonic Youth type band, we'd all love it. Reminds me of Nico with a backup choir of Wayne Coynes.
