Title: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: matt-zeus on August 01, 2010, 04:39:43 AM Hello
Just to say I have a new song up on my myspace and Facebook pages (better streaming on Facebook), it's called 'Doing the 9 to 5' and is off my new album 'The Secret of no Success' which will be out in Septemeber or October and is a sort of concept album about the world of work! Anyway, please have a listen if you can, here is the link to my myspace page; http://www.myspace.com/brigadiermusic and Facebook http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Brigadier/37988901969 Cheers Matt Title: Re: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: Jonas on August 01, 2010, 06:34:36 AM Checked it out, as I am a fan! One of the main riffs reminds me of a weezer tune...great stuff!
Title: Re: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: matt-zeus on August 01, 2010, 07:30:45 AM Thanks! And oh dear, I don't really know Weezer at all - is it very similar? Which song?!
Title: Re: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: the captain on August 01, 2010, 07:47:52 AM Great. (I hate Weezer and thus am glad not to have heard a connection.) Love the electric rhythm guitar tone that opens the tune, as well as the solo.

Title: Re: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: the captain on August 01, 2010, 08:09:39 AM A wah-wah was as important to me as a pick when I was 14, 15 years old. Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) was the gospel, as far as I was concerned.
Title: Re: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: matt-zeus on August 01, 2010, 09:33:49 AM Yes, that's quite a fun one to play - though I was never a Hendrix fan at all. I like the fact that you can set it at a point (without then pressing it up and down) and get interesting tones - I can hear where Page got a lot of his sounds from on the first couple of Zeppelin albums.

Don't hear the similarity between that and yours, Mr. Zeus, which doesn't really matter because it's a great song! Let us know when the album's out... Title: Re: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: matt-zeus on August 02, 2010, 04:46:14 AM Thanks very much! :)
Title: Re: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: Jonas on August 02, 2010, 04:50:12 AM Wait...you use to love this song and you dont hear the same melody in
"for I just threw out the love of my dreams" to the main riff to zeus' track? weird... -edit- and for the record...i dont think its a big deal. im not trying to be a downer...im a huge fan of the brigadier (valentine (be my?) is still constantly played)...just caught that similarity. Title: Re: New song 'Doing the 9 to 5' Post by: matt-zeus on August 02, 2010, 05:17:11 AM I had a listen to the Weezer track this morning before I went to work so am not that familiar with it yet but could hear the odd bit of phrasing that was similar - but I will have another listen when I get home!
As long as i'm not plagiarising! :o |
