  1. Hey all, wanted to present to you my latest (and largest!) cover project, an extended remake/rework/remix/reproduction of one of my all time favorite album "sides", Pink Floyd The Wall, Side 3 (Tracks 14-19). This is Part 1 of 3, Hey You and Is there Anybody Out There? A multitude of digital means and methods were used to recreate these iconic tunes (which were originally done in analog, of course!). All vocals are 100% redone. Here's how everything else came together: Hey You- Full reproduction, using some predone MIDI sequences, as well as my own playing and programming. I put flesh on the bones using a variety of synths and samplers. Joined on vocals by my Floydian friend and singing partner Tone Hjelt from Oslo, Norway. Is There Anybody Out There?- Pretty much same as above! Used some predone MIDI sequences, some my own playing/programming, and put a touch of the original instrumental track under the opening drone swell to enhance the sound. Background TV sounds and assorted voices taken from original tracks, of course! Everything I recorded was done via synthesizers, samples, and sequencing. All done in CbB. I know I'm definitely swimming in deep waters here, but this was a very fun and incredibly challenging project! Didn't attempt to reinvent the wheel, just tried to polish up the rims a bit, and create a more immersive listening experience for these timeless and iconic tunes! I will plan on posting Part 2 (Nobody Home, Vera, Bring The Boys Back Home) and Part 3 (Comfortably Numb) in the near future.
  2. Beautiful playing, very expressive. Well done! πŸ‘
  3. Fantastic, sweeping soundscape Jerry! Obvious you put a lot of work into this. Well done!
  4. Very nicely crafted piece here! As said already, the atmosphere is cool, dark and emotive. Enjoyed the listen! πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸŽΆπŸŽΆπŸŽΆπŸŽΆ
  5. Like the driving energy on this. Nice guitar work. Mix is well balanced also. Great work!
  6. Outstanding work Mark, groovy jam and nice production! πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸŽΆπŸŽΆπŸŽΆπŸŽΆ
  7. Great stuff as always Nigel, nicely executed! πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸŽΆπŸŽΆπŸŽΆ
  8. Really cool track, well played. Overall, well balanced, I guess what you're getting at is the guitar is hot and in your face, and the keyboards not so much. I imagine your guitar is mono, and your keyboards are stereo. If that's the case, maybe try splitting your keyboard into two mono tracks, and hardpan them right and left. That would keep some spaciousness, but would probably push them upfront a little bit more and add some edge. You could try saturating the keyboard signal a little bit too.
  9. Nice work on this Ed and all! πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸŽΆπŸŽΆπŸŽΆπŸŽΆ
