Title: Where's Curtis Downey?
Post by: Paulo on February 13, 2009, 03:48:18 PM
Some years ago Curtis had this beatifull melodie hanging out there and with the help of some friends we brought it to life... I believe there was another version with real drums played by Freddie but I just don't remember. Always loved this tune, very touching words.

Curtis Downey - Author, Lead Vocals
Davidnoz - Bass
Steve Moeller - Guitars
Paulo Gomes - Arrangement, All Keys, Drums programing, Bak Vocals, Mix

Oh, I like this one too Paulo.  I would like to have the seps you added to this if I could, like the the drums and the backing vocals, I should have everything else.  If I remember right I never liked the drums that were done before.  Thanks for bringing this one up again man.
Curtis

Here is a version that I ended up going with on my hard drive, I think I redid the vocals and added some backings of my own, and I did some of my own drums that I was never happy with either.  I think with you drums and you backings mixed in with mine this could be even better....

I've been around, just not doing much music.  I built a new computer, and just finally got it all up and running, but haven't had much time to play with it yet.  I always look in every day though, so I am watching you guys.... ^-^

Thanks man, things are good, just busy is all...

And Paulo, I like your new mix and the stuff you added, just the autotune on my vocal is killing it for me.  I don't even know if that is the same vocal I have been using, I think I redid it.  I can give you that if you want, as well as my backing vocals I did..

Curtis,
I did not use autotune on your Vox... This track is the same that you recorded some years ago... By the way, I don't even have autotune, more recently I have Waves tune but I didn't use it in your track.

Actually I think it is a track that was all Freddied up before you got a hold of it ::).  Fred had a habit of screwing things up before anyone had a chance to get a hold of it....

Man, you should be Nashville making gazzilions...my wife just came running down the stairs when I started playing this (after her hiding in the room upstairs for a couple hours while I was mixing my own stuff..go figure! ;D ;D ;D).
You've got the sound for sure!

Very nice :)

Here are my vocal and backup seps.  To be honest, this may have been done on my old setup also, I don't know, this whole song was done so long ago.
Thanks Nick and Marc..
