Malinda McCullum, Long dead Heavy Gunner of Bastille, Slaughtered a Scorpion and used its body to make a guitar. The cavity of the digestive tract and poison glands, produce colourful harmonic overtones.

The strange sounds of this bizarre instrument can be heard on my Myspace page, the title 'Ol-Man - Waterfalls (this isn't a plug  :p much)

I am an amateur muso (like real amateur :o), but I still likes it. Hope youz do to.

A little too "latin" color for me on the guitar. The background 'midi' concept is a good one but the strings you added don't complement them well enough. Maybe a heavily muted bass deeper in the background would make the difference for me... But that's just me!...... I'm no music critic, I just know what I like.

The TOTAL concept you have works well together, it's just not what I like :thinking:

Sorry bud! :D

I can understand that... I was practicing some Latin stuff, and plugged in a mic, this is about a year and a half ago. I was trying to impress my old mans friends with some classical stuff. It came out kinda cool even though I was just improving the whole time, so I pitch shifted down an octave and doubled it with that and then stuffed the whole thing through a Ring modulator and a bit of delay in parts. Unfortunately this track is a phasing nightmare because of all this and makes it really hard to mix.

Did you listen to any of the others. Its all weird Avant Garde stuff, and all very old now, I really need a good audio interface for my PC again,... oh and stuff the PC I need a MAC!

Thanks for listening JD

Love the truck!

LOL Bastiel....

I have no idea what "Pitch-shifting" is or "phasing" for that matter.. hehehe
I just know what I like going in my ear!

I like my truck too..... DAMN good ride.
AND IT"S NOT A CHOMPER goat! How dare you! ;)

I have a G4 mac I can sell you Bastiel. Comp, Monitor, keyboard and mouse.... I'll have "Garage Band" loaded on it if you wanna buy it.

GB is the program I use to record the voice-overs used here in the game. It also has a full range of instruments to use and mix with.
THEN all you do is export it to iTunes with an Mp4 format and then use iTunes to change it to Mp3/4 (I prefer Mp3) whichever you prefer and burn it to a disc.

WooHoo! Cheers Grog, many thanks.

Yes I love Volta and the edgy guitar work, lots of crazy experiments that leave the imagination open. I like lots of DT too. Wish he still had a voice like he did on Sex and Religion.

That someone would actually listen to this is really mind blowing. I am going to get to work ASAP. I cannot say enough what these words mean.

I can send you these in better quality, just let me know or PM me some deets and they be on there way.

Thanks again Grog (wipes his eye from tears of joy :) )
