NorioDS No secrets here -

Who ya gonna callllll...how I'm gonna do it is the fun part ?

      Nice choice! Love that theme song.

        NorioDS T'was a easy one, thankfully there was a TV show! The reasoning is - the only vinyl I recall ever owned was the Ghostbusters OST - circa 84/85 iirc.

            Jislaaik I hope I have time to do this. This new year has stolen all of my guitar time.

            Mmmm... there's still time... Hopefully I can play with my new little mixing desk to do some recording stuff.

            Shhhheeeeeeettttt, newsletter reminded me the deadline is this weekend. And I'm still working on the pointy/paddle challenge. My entry is gonna be rough as anything!

            edit : perhaps not as rough as @domhatch puns... ?

            No pressure... I've gotta record this AND my pointy vs paddle entry by Sunday evening ?

            For this one I'm doing Postman Pat. Gonna try do it on bass with a bit of dirt and maybe some wah. If I can swing it, I'll go for a heavy metal style. But, first, gotta work out the fingering.

            This is all I've got to go on for this tjoon:

            Good luck, everyone! ? Enter whatever you manage. Don't worry about perfection. I'm pulling this one out of my ? in the next day or 2. You can too ?

              OK! My "Creepy Postman Pat" entry is in ?

              This was looots of fun. The 1-track limitation is tricky. Even the slightest rhythm track behind the instrument would've made it sound less empty, to my ears.

              Recorded on my trust ol' Boss BR-600. Used my Satchurator for dirt coz none of the dirt on the BR-600 gave me what I was after. Tried my Morely wah but I wasn't feeling it. Maybe with more practice I can have more fun with that.

              I down-tuned the E-string to get the low D at the end of the riff. Then tuned it back up to E (yes, on the fly) to get the second riff in. I love how creepy it sounds ? And it let me keep the riff in the VERY LOOOOW registers where it's a bit creepier ?

              Anyway, looking forward to hearing YOUR entries! Bring it ?

              my first upload here...

              so maybe this gets disqualified, as technically its 2 tracks (one drum track and one guitar track) but as I recorded this off a looper pedal I will stand in front of a judge and argue its recorded as one track!

              theme music usually played on a theremin...

              Ok Mine's done! My version of Pinky and the Brain ?

              Agree with @NorioDS that the one track limit does make things sounds a bit empty...
              Recorded on Behringer XV-AMP with a bit of delay and reverb.
              That is all

              Sorry for the video - the video audio is better than using the phone's voice recorder/n-track. Plus...you get to see me cheating ?

              The verse is drum loop only, chorus part is 3 layers I setup before recording (faster drum loop, one layer chords, one layer harmony). Using overdub, stacked up four harmonies and ran outta ideas.

              Great stuff everyone! Locking down this thread and I'll open a separate voting thread.
