hungrych Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 At 2 am, me on lead vocals, my friend on guitar and backup vocals. http://download.yousendit.com/441B20A4642B386E We were fucking around, and realized at about 4 that we had recorded like 18 songs, then we did 2 more in the morning. All improvised. It's pretty stupid, but it does get better as it goes. The highlights are probably Merlin, Godzilla, For Pluto, Everyone's Sleeping... And You Should Be Too, and Lazy Frog. But really they're all great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qazwsx Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 286.62 MB on dial-up? :'( Anyway you could just put a track or two on putfile or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungrych Posted May 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 That's really wierd, it was 28mb as a wma (the recorder used wma)and I transcoded it to alac so it would work in itunes. Dunno why it would be ten times the size... I'll work on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno why it would be ten times the size... I'll work on it. cos wma is lossy and alac is lossless? you should have converted to aac, or better yet, mp3 (so it'll work anywhere). either way, i got mine downloaded. i will give a listen later and report back with a full review.

hungrych Posted May 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 http://www.mediafire.com/?8mm26glnnxa There, it's like 46 mb now.

But why would making a wma into a lossless file add data? Either way, I look forward to the review. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

postjack Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 think about when you convert an mp3 to a wav. there is no increase in SQ, since that information was already squelched when the file was compressed. still, the file gets a hell of a lot bigger.

deepak Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 If someone could transcode it to a lossy codec (I don't care what) and upload it so it's much smaller I'd listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepak Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 hungrch you could transcode the wma to aac which is the lossy itunes codec. I wouldn't mind just the 28 mb wma since it will work on foobar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Low Batteries is probably my favourite track of the ones I've auditioned -- it has that punky vibe on acoustic thing going on. Wombats from Hell is also surprisingly good, what with its Bauhaus tinged production. You guys could use an editor, though. And it's fairly painful to listen to on headphones, the guitar primarily in one earpiece and the voice primarily in the other. It'd probably be a lot less painful to listen to on speakers, so I'll do that later. And a producer. And some synthesizers. And some beats. And a better microphone (the one you used makes you sound congested). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungrych Posted May 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Synthesizers? I'm not selling out just yet... It sounds fine on my L3ks, but it's just a usb key/recorder thing I found lying around at my friends house, so the quality won't be that good. We recorded the last two tracks when we woke up so the amp wouldn't wake everyone up. What should be edited? I like the random talking, it gives insight into the songwriting process since that was literally all the writing we did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungrych Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Wombats from Hell is also surprisingly good, what with its Bauhaus tinged production. That's actually my other friend playing Zelda. (the one you used makes you sound congested). I don't think it's the mic, I actually was congested after having a really bad cold/allergies for a week.

Even the complete columbia sessions of miles davis and john coltrane only has about 43 seconds of banter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
