Old Timers

I did this a couple of years ago just for the fun of it. I don't believe that I posted this back then. BobH heard it and said that I should post it. Since this was done on my old deleted DAW I lost all of the stems. I took the saved wav, brought it into Studio One Pro and add some EQ and compression.

Don't ask because I forgot what BiaB style I used back then. I, of course, am playing the rhythm and lead guitars. BiaB is doing everything else.

Oh yea I did remember to sings all five words in this!


[edit] - note that there is a minute or two of silence at the end of this. Just ignore it. I don't know why that happened. Maybe I should have named this "Old Timers Can't Post Songs Correctly"?

Mario,

Killer.

Great beat. Awesome guitars. Well mixed. (Cool vocal, too)

Out of the park!

Mario,
This is probably the coolest tune I've heard of yours. Well, maybe not the most complex, but surely positive!
Enjoyed it very much.

Thank you for posting!
Misha.

Nicely done, Mario smile Love the groove on this, and the mix sounds top notch, especially considering you didn't have the original stems to work with. The autotune on the vocals worked surprisingly well too.

A solid tune all around - thanks for sharing!


Cheers,
Deryk

Very cool tune Mario. The backtrack rhythm is very infection. Guitar work is very cool. Sneaking in some pinch harmonics. Love the bite. One of your best Mario. Well done...

Thans Misha. Sometimes simple chord progressions are the best.

Thanx Deryk. I'm glad that I didn't have the stems because I would have probably screwed this up.

Thanx Scott. Sometimes I just like to let off some steam and just play. Maybe I should post more of those moments.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Great. Straight-ahead rock backing with some wicked guitar that spans decades and a fun vocal. Big fun.
