Re: Nur Ein IV: Round Two

Bail out time... ... real life is throwing me a bit of a bender at the moment and tonight was the last chance I'd have of putting anything together and I'm not going to make it, I have work in the morning then will need to ferry stuff back and forward between Canterbury and Milton Keynes all weekend...

Re: Nur Ein IV: Round One

Wow, what another another great batch of songs! Playing "if I were a judge" my top five would be: 1. Howl Down the Chimney. 2. WreckdoM. 3. Frankie Big Face. 4. Tiny Robots. 5. Nigel Clements. Rounding out the top ten in alphabetical order would be Paco, Quimby, RG, Ross, and Signboy. Wow...

Re: Nur Ein IV: Round One

Random thoughts whilst listening: tracks listed alphabetically, this is going to be rather difficult for the judges, top through bottom! good work everybody! Adam Adamant: Rather an uninspiring intro, overly fuzzy bassline, in fact quite an odd collection of synthlines, really like the vocal break t...

Re: Nur Ein IV: Round One

Just need to record my 3rd verse and I'm ready for tinkering.....

(4/4 time comprising 69¾ measures @ 138bpm = 1:59.64)

I have no idea how this worked out, I just kept squeezing :D

Re: Nur Ein IV

Awesome, Nige! Best advice I can give you is keep your bass lines simple and groove to the kick drum. A thing I'll do when I want to workout on bass is set a nice drum loop, EQ the kick drum good and solid, EQ down the highs and just groove along to the kick drum. Try and hit low notes in time with...

Re: Nur Ein IV

Apart from the obvious technical/knowledge/ability issues which I'll always have ( :) ) one thing that I'm sure lets me down is my lack of a 'played' instrument, therefore (and it'll be very very basic) I will be playing (attempting to play) bass for the remainder of my time with the Nur Ein fold......

Re: Nur Ein IV: Round Zero

I almost forget the yearly picture request. If you make it into Round one, I need a pic of you for the website. If you are the camera shy type, you can just send your band logo. If you don't send a pic, I will just hunt one down from the web. What are the required dimensions/limitations on the phot...
