Is the front page list up-to-date @richardyot - if so i'm up to date - phew
. Apologies for the tardiness.
Yes, front page is up-to-date.
For future reference you can follow the Song Of The Month Cub on SoundCloud and the tracks will automatically appear in your stream.
Cool. Thanks - good tip.
Thanks for excellent SOTM management too!
No worries, thanks for the contribution - tracks and comments!
Thanks for the listen Matt
That's a fair assessment, thanks for the feedback!
@BvsMV & @Matt_Fletcher_2000 Thanks very much guys,especially for comments about the lyrics.I worked quite hard on those so it's great to hear they're appreciated.Very encouraging comments from you both.Ta very much!
@BvsMV Many thanks for your kind comments. Yes, from all the great advice I received from October, I looked at the production a lot more trying to get a more fuller, less puny sound which I set out to hopefully achieve.
I used Guitarism, Slash Amp, ifretless bass, Cubasis drums & Vocal live, all recorded live. One day, when I've learnt, I'd love to use a real guitar & really crunch some stuff out. Thanks again. I'm still on my perch above town, safe & sound just watching those lights go by...............
Playing power chords on an electric guitar is not a difficult thing to achieve. If you do one day get yourself an electric guitar make sure that it has decent action (which means that the strings aren't too high above the frets) and some medium-gauge strings and you should be able to play punk rock songs in a couple of weeks. You already have a solid sense of rhythm (I can tell from your drumming efforts) and that actually is half the battle. The best thing is that with an iPad you don't need an amp, just use an interface and an amp sim.
@Matt_Fletcher_2000 Thanks so much for your very positive review. It motivates me even more to keep on going, learning & playing new chords & maybe different styles of music in the future as well. It's all still new & fresh to me & I'm sure that helps with my beginners luck. I really appreciate your feedback. Right, back to Silent Night. God help you all cos I'm trying a synth. Cheers Matt.
Listen to this man, @richardyot, he is wise and knows what he speaks of. lol. Pretty much every dang word he uttered above is true. Now, I am back to the Aruia Pro tips and tricks thread, to read more @richardyot things..........................
@richardyot Wow, thank you Richard for taking the time to help & advise me. If you were local, I would definitely be asking/paying for some guitar lessons. Very kind. I managed to pick up a cheap acoustic guitar (it's a Herald?) from a Charity Shop t'other day. It's a bit battered & bruised (like my songs) but she does work. Now it means my bathroom visits will increase even more.
"I'm off to the loo again love." iPad in one arm, guitar round neck! Thanks again.
@Bluepunk cool - just be aware that an acoustic guitar is harder to play than an electric one, especially a cheap acoustic guitar. This is just in a physical sense: you need more strength in your fingers to fret an acoustic guitar. Electrics are considerably easier on your fingers, because they have a lower action and thinner strings.
Mind you, the advantage of learning on an acoustic is that if you do eventually get to play an electric you will really find it easy. But trying to learn on a crappy guitar can be unnecessarily frustrating - this isn't advice to spend tons of money though, because even a cheap modern electric should be playable, especially if it's a decent brand like Epiphone or Squier (which are the lower tier brands of Gibson and Fender respectively).
Ah, thank you because I was thinking that these strings are like electricity power lines! I'd need to wear gloves & a sledgehammer to strum this beast! It's making sense now. Thanks.
Just saying that name "Gibson" makes me feel all warm & powerful inside. One day, paired with an amp sim, it will happen. Now, where does this sit on my Christmas list. Let me see.
New iPad air2, Focal Spirit headphones, lecky guitar, iTunes vouchers.................
I'm really gunna have to be on my bestest behaviour aren't I?
Thanks very much for this info. It's so helpful as @High5denied rightly said above.
I waited more than twenty years to buy a Gibson, and it was only "allowed" by the Powers That Be because I had an exceptionally good year business-wise. However, an Epiphone will actually play just as well as a Gibson - you just need to put a sticker on the head stock that says Gibson and no-one would be any the wiser
Good stuff. I can confirm that the Squire and Epiphone will play nicely. I have a Fender strat, sold my Jackson/charvel to get it. I loved that guitar, but the floyd Rose Tremelo killed me. Fender is built like a tank, drop it and it still works.
ATTENTION! ATTENTION! WARNING! Mister @bluepunk We are watching you carefully as regards all this 'I'm going to go back to music college and may buy a posh guitar' talk. Punk may be almost senile but it still wants to kick arse and it may be yours if you get too bourgeoise via namby-pamby practicing schedules! Stay true Brother Blue!
He'll be OK, as long as he doesn't learn more than 3 chords. Once he's playing minor sevenths though he's lost. Or worse, a jazz guitarist...
Haha yes, I feel it could be a long wait but 20 years? I will need two Zimmer frames by then. One for me & one to hold up the guitar. Re the stickers, I did the same with my first drum kit. It may have come from the pawn brokers (each drum was a different colour & brand) but once I'd scribbled "Premier" all over the split bass drum skin, I felt like animal (the filthy Taylor Motörhead one) not the muppets version.
Thanks for the info kind sir. It sounds like the Fender would make a good punk guitar then. What with all those nasty, unpleasant items that would be continually launched at my person, it would take it & give some back!
Haha, I don't think Slash or Mr Duffy have too much to worry about (at the moment) but I'd really like to hear what a real guitar could bring to my punk party. I still cannot get that chug, chug chugging sound from Guitarism although it's still my favourite & much used app. Was it Slaughter & the Dogs who screamed "I ain't going to no music school?" Yep, as @richardyot said, 3 chords will suffice. As Steve Jones said to Glenn Matlock "what the hell are you playing Beatles chords for guv'nor? I don't do the Beatles!"
As soon as I get in, I will give your new tune a good listen.
I think it was Nancy Banks-Smith who said (a thousand years ago) that the definition of modern architecture was an ability to sit on the toilet and keep the door closed with your foot.
I hope you live in an old house.
@Matt_Fletcher_2000
Hurrah, I've broken out of my 'lounge mode' (in fact, December's entry moves into the kitchen) ! But seriously, cheers.
I spend a fair bit of time on these tracks, to try to get them to make some sense / include quite a lot of subtle changes. I can't take any credit for the title - Gadget came up with it.
@High5denied
Thanks, the bass is indeed intended to drive the track throughout - well observed.
@Jocphone
Thanks for commenting, but there isn't a 'tune' as such in the track, but there is quite a lot going on. I think its fair to say it may make more sense (or not) with a couple of listens.
Apologies, if I've missed anyone else's comments - I find it a bit difficult to navigate through the thread, when it gets this long.
Cheers matt! That review was very humbling to me coming from you! Thanks..much appreciated!
Yah man, its not the same without you @monzo !
I miss @monzo as well. The old place isn't quite the same without his curmudgeonly self sat up there on the fence. However, I imagine him back there in his shed at the bottom of some Welsh field, making wholly undistracted progress and I envy him that
Of course, he'll also be rich by now; a sober man adrift from appaholia...
@Matt_Fletcher_2000 I'm been trying to write this for over a week now. Between being insanely busy and the fact that sliding into tomorrow is so hypnotically beautiful I just haven't gotten it done. Every time I have listened to it to do this, I just zone out and begin to bob my head ever so gently. 3 minutes later I'm like "What just happened?" The bass is fantastic, the synths so pristine and I love the beat. As for Swiftly, the same goes. I love the calculated glitch throughout, and the pads sound so nice and warm. As always your mix is spot on. Great job man.
@Bluepunk Somehow you were able to compliment me even while you were being appreciative and kind. You are a gentleman. Btw I will never let this thread die.
