[VOTE] Line Cliche Challenge
Very cool tracks @all
It was an interesting topic. I always learn something new with those competitions
And I'm glad I can work around my technical problems by using Chrome so I can place my vote (after page reload I can see my tick mark so I guess it worked)
Great entries all round and a tough vote that eventually swayed towards the most obvious Line Cliche. I think I was able to cast my vote?
@Bluetone - Very polished track and nicely mixed as always. The Challenge requirement was up front and centre. It got my vote.
@Yeti - The mix was a little trebly in my opinion but that being said it's a great song. Loved the tight rhythm work and the 80s vibe. My favourite entry this month.
@V8 - Those vocals and harmonies sounded sweet. Great funky rhythm. Reminded me of RHCP, just too short
@klaasvakie - Beautiful finger-style and an impressive execution of both picking and vocals. A really tricky endeavour done very well.
Nicely played gents.
Did @Yeti win? Well done sir. I can't see nothing in Mozilla? Can't like or reply either? LOL
Thanks, @studmissile and well done, @Yeti. Happy to see so many entries this month - hope that continues.
Thanks all.
An idea for next month... How about we take a topical page from Mary Spender's book and do a partial rewrite of a song. Let's take the main hook and /or first verse of a song and rewrite the rest of it in our own way.
Congratulations @Yeti - well done comrade, nice to have you back
@Bluetone Some real quality stuff (as always). You seem to be able to layer multiple guitar tracks so effortlessly - definitely something I have to work on.
@Yeti Looks like you put a lot of effort into this one (and it shows), no accident you won this one. those ascending runs really show off your vocal range and fit in nicely. Agree with @Bluetone , getting some billy joel type vibes.
@V8 Such a playful track - won my vote just because it sounds so fun. Stereo panning on the vocals was nice and great whistling tone.
V8 klassvakie : Do I smell a mashup? Swear the line chliche is a touch of Beatles?
Wasn't trying to be a mashup! But yeah, I can hear some Beatles, I can hear some Jim Croche, but the idea germinated from the very cool walkdown (it's called a walkdown right?) from Tenacious D's Wonderboy.
Thanks for the compliments @studmissile , missed you this time around. Not that I can really talk - I think I skipped 3 or 4.
@Yeti +1 for your finish a song idea.
studmissile It's weird, I cranked up Firefox now, can't even see or edit the poll as a mod. It's like it doesn't exist!
One option is to try Blaze as a chrome alternative - I've not yet, but I think it may replace Firefox as my backup.
Here's the 'view voters' popup - vote counted!
Yeti ow about we take a topical page from Mary Spender's book and do a partial rewrite of a song. Let's take the main hook and /or first verse of a song and rewrite the rest of it in our own way.
+1 from me, I'll have it up n running by tomorrow. We might have to use the attachment's feature on the forum if Soundclouds copyright thingy doesn't like a cover - but that could even feature as a criteria *Entries must be able to uploaded to Soundcloud
klaasvakie (it's called a walkdown right?)
Man, you taughtt me there - I got no idea, walkdown sounds good to me!
- Edited
V8 Using Opera now. Tried everything humanly possible in Firefox. No Luck.
Blaze? Did you mean Brave?
studmissile Did you mean Brave?
I did! Sorry, I got confussed. Been meaning to get it up n running - perhaps just to remember it's name
