    I know that my cover and DashboardProfessional's will be in by the due date! As for the poll, all of my covers are acoustic anyway so I voted for summer songs.

  4. Tracked vocals and most of the guitars yesterday. Song is not as straightforward as I assumed!

    I'll have a ton of editing/mixing to do over the weekend, but I should have plenty of time to do it.

    is it the same for you? Prestigious

    i'm like 90% done getting the cajon part in line. once that's done, i'll track some real vocals and banish away the ones i did last week. has anyone here recorded/eq'd cajon before? in doing this, i isolated a few of the different sounds, so it should be moderately easy to get it to sound alright, but i'm definitely open to any tips people might have.
     
  7. something here might help.

    I have pretty much all day Saturday to finish my recording so it'll be no problem for Sunday! I finally worked out how I'm going to go about this song, it just a matter of putting all the pieces together this weekend.

    hate to bring bad news so close to the due date, but I'm not going to be able to get my cover in. the other half of my duo is getting evicted and is scrambling to find a new place to live, so the cover totally took a backseat for us, prioritywise.

    Old Aesthetic Prestigious

    Hey Members Compers, @bradsonemanband said it was ok to promote this in here, thought maybe some haven't seen it:

    Remember back in 2004, Fat Mike of NoFx created the Rock Against Bush compilations? Obviously, Bush got a second term so it was unsuccessful; but I feel Trump's brand of racist demagoguery, sexist remarks, and overall corporate greed is exactly the kind of movement people should be "rocking against." I think the people on Chorus.fm have open minds and have great political discourse in the Politics forum, and I know there is a sentiment of fear against a potentially dangerous election. (Sidenote: and for fans or supporters of Trump on here, please don't spam my inbox with hate, we all have our right to opinions)

    Just curious if maybe musicians of Chorus or friends of musicians would maybe want to do a free download compilation of a Rock Against Trump (or a title that Fat Wreck Chords would be alright with) with the political sphere in mind. On AP, there was a constant string of comps released whether tributes or original music, I think this kind of thing would be fun and a good way of spreading some clarity in a tumultuous political landscape. Let me know in here if this interests you, I would love to get something together. I don't really make any music myself but I could gather the tracks and do some album artwork for it, as well as host the download.

    Do an original or cover song that is politically charged against the Donald. Say tentatively June 15. If you want to submit a track, hit my inbox with a copy of the track. I will start compiling as soon as I get them.

    Make sure you submit the track with the name of the song, the name of the artist, and the names of the people who helped make the song so I can give credit all around. Thanks!

    Here is the thread.

    Sent mine in just a few minutes ago. It's a bit heavy on the distortion side but I like how it sounds so hopefully everyone likes it too haha.
     
  16. Covers are due by tomorrow night!

    Irregular Prestigious

    Been a very busy week so I hadn't had much time to do any post-production to my song until tonight. That also meant I wasn't able to record a second cover... considering that today is mother's day I doubt I'll get a chance to bang out an easy one BUT if I have an hour to spare I'll do a quick rendition of Buddy Holly!

    Just submitted my song. I'm super proud of it and hope everyone enjoys hearing it as much as I did making it. I bought a bunch of new toys this month and they really upped the quality of my recordings. Can't wait to hear everyone else's Weezer renditions!

    EDIT: Also, excited to see that summer songs is going so well. I've chosen a song and learned all (but one fill) of it on drums today. I might be able to have this cover done in just a couple of days!

    Thanks to all of you thay have already submitted your songs. Looks like we've had 7 or 8 submissions so far, which is good!

    I need to record mine today. I haven't had any time this week to conquer it. Another last minute recording by your MC, haha. #crunchday :-)

    mine's just about done. i'm going to make some final tweaks and bounce it down. @bradsonemanband, what time are you trying to post?
     
  20. honestly, i JUST got home to start working on my cover. i'm re-doing everything i already had done, and i only have two hours to do it before i have to leave again, haha. but i'd like to post the final compilation before i go to bed tonight (around 11pm mountain time, probably). so i'd like to have everyone's songs in by 10pm or so my time, so i can finalize the track order and everything.

  24. I usually put a lot of layers into my recordings, this time I only had time to do acoustic guitar and vocals. But I'm still really proud of it!
