Title: (another) Surf's Up cover Post by: egon spengler on December 06, 2013, 09:49:23 AM Surf's Up was one of the first BB covers I ever did, just about 4 years ago. Now that I've learned about some obscure mixing and mastering techniques such as "EQ," "compression," and "not sucking at mixing and mastering," I've re-recorded it. This version will eventually end up on my SMiLE recreation--I was going to wait to post it, but I've got a crazy busy 6+ months ahead of me that won't allow for me to work on much music of any kind, so I thought I'd throw it online now. Have a listen (and wait for the third movement--I added a twist that I'm pretty confident would be Brian-approved)!

I listened to your older version of the song, and you've definitely improved in those few years (though the old version is still pretty good).

As someone with zero training on the trumpet/French horn, I think I might be more proud of pulling off those horn riffs than anything else in one of my recordings (not counting the Add a Some Music e-collab.. That's still my all-time favorite :)).
