57Gregy 596 Posted March 5 Cool song, C.R. I like it. Did I hear Jon Lord in there? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bitflipper 2,402 Posted March 5 Credit to bapu for the mix. There's a lot going on in there. In truth, when he first presented this one to me I declined to contribute, saying it would be better to approach it as a power trio seeing as how it was already so dense. Kudos to Ed for refusing to take "no" for an answer and figuring out how to create a space for me so I could channel my inner Jon Lord. Actually, because Jon is still alive I should have said "channeling my inner Keith Emerson". But in truth I'm not that good. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wookiee 1,787 Posted March 8 Nothing like a partly screamed vocal to shift the cobwebs from the ears, mix sounds Ok here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bitflipper 2,402 Posted March 18 Well, I suppose technically I can play rings around Keith nowadays. By the same logic I play better drums than John Bonham, better guitar than Stevie Ray Vaughn, and better harpsichord than Amadeus Mozart. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
