Thanks to George Williams (Guitar George) for unbelievable vocals and his very cool savy putting his track together.
Thanks to Bill (R4m) on lead guitar. He was on fire with his solo.
I have enjoyed working with both of them and also appreciate the warm welcome to MC.
Have a listen and let me know what you think. I would appreciate the feedback, good or bad. It's the only way to learn.
Thankfully this party song is purely ficticious, but I wouldn't mind going to this party.
The lyrics:
Woke up last night and heard some laughing upstairs
I looked for you but you weren't there
Ran upstairs because I thought I heard your voice
There was a party going on
There you were in the middle of the room
You didn't see me walking in
All I could do was look at you
There was a party going on
A party going on
A party going on with you
There was a party going on
A party going on with you
You finally saw me looking real sad
You looked away, cause of the shame
They looked at me and tried to explain
There was a party going on
Nothing you can say will make the pain go away
You had your way and now it's time to pay
You just keep her - I have no plans to stay
There was a party going on
A party going on
A party going on with you

Yeah baby, awesome track! Glad you got this one done. Has a great vibe to it, brilliant playing all round and excellent vox. Well done!

Great stuff. I really enjoyed this.
It's a great song, great writing and production, and a killer guitar solo.
I think its my best vocal effort here on MCS :)

I enjoyed this so much I thought I'd post to say so again.
George
Bob - also please can you post an APE (or similar) of this mix for posterity?
-
Bob! :)
Are you sure this party was fictitious! ???
I remember it back in 82' being sprawled on the floor with my...well...never mind. You're right, this is purely fictitious, my bad! ;D ;D
Very interesting piece, It sounds, to me, like an amalgamation of classic southern blues, and 90's urban rock. You should post the lyrics for us writer types. I recall reading them in "studio A"...very different structure from the typical fare. :)
Great vocal on this George!
It's always fun hearing Bill find his groove....Two thumbs up, fellas! Cheers! 8) Johnny

Way to make a track!! 8) 8) 8)
This was a great groove and great riff from the start!!
Was happy to add a little wankery!! >:D Such a small part in contrast to the total song!!
George
Man, you just keep getting better and better!!
You tore it up bro! Great voice!!
-
Great bedtrack. Really nice groove happening. Makes it easy for guys to jump in and do it. Great vocals George. Nice playing as usual Bill. Rockin' tune guys!! 8) 8) 8)

I'm really glad everyone liked it, being that it was the first song I posted on MC. :) It took awhile to put the whole puzzle together, but it finally came together in the end with everyones help.
Thanks again everyone I really had fun with this one.

Sounds like a cool song, great vocals.
Could you replace the MP3 with a better one though ? It sounds really low bitrate and ruining the listening experience. Try 192Kbps it should preserve all the high end that's very spashy right now.
CD

Not a problem, in fact I'm working on a better mix as I am writing. My inherent problem is that I am a bass player as well and tend to mix too much low end. I think you will like this mix better. I'll have it up around 7:00pm east time.

Cool, but the mix was fine, just the Mp3 was a bit Lo-Fi

I agree with CD

I think (hope) you guys will like this better. Lot of tweaking..... EQ on the final. I created a 32 bit wave file, that should have everything in it. I can still change it though, give me feedback and we'll tweak it some more.
-
I should probably tell you where I put it. Studio A (There was a party MC)

Will go take a listen.
When you make the final Wave file try to use 24bit , going any higher won't make any difference other than you'll have a much larger file size than you need.

Probably should replace the original post with the better mix also. ;)
-
I posted it as an ape file a couple of days ago.
-
Very good!
Now in addition, you should post a high quality mp3 in the same post, for those who won't download the ape and convert it just to give it a listen. ;) I know it sounds a bit picky but people want to click and listen without jumping through a bunch of hoops.
-
Got it. Wasn't quite sure what the whole thing was. I'll tell you why I didn't !! When they look for the latest file, they will have to go through the whole list of files to find the right one. It's a little (little) confusing.
-
I think everyone agrees this is the final mix. I posted a MP3 and an ape file for those that want a better quality file. Both are titled There was a party MC
-
Should post it in the first post.
Just click Additional Options and load it.
I know! picky picky picky! ;D
It's just standard proceedure. ;)

Final Mix

Excellent! ;)

Thanks Bill............. I think we are finally there.
