Hey ya'll yes indeed it is Rudolph the creator of the Daily Sideburn Report thread and I'm hear to report that:

1. the burn's are still rockin'

and

2. I would like you all to download/stream/whatever a song I wrote inspired by the book "the killer angels" by michael shaara that i wrote for a project at school

song

the original version was 9 min long so you can all thank me for chopping it down to a measly 5+ min.
comments and critiques are welcome!

i do not register for things

sorry bud

Posted by odouls268 (Member # 2145) on :

ok, got to listen without registering.

I liked it except for the first line
"there's a light
shining so bright."

It's a bit tired.
rest of the song is pretty good though.

The recording quality is decent, how'd you do it?

Your voice goes flat from time to time, and I think the climax of the song needs to be a bit more climactic – in addition to singing louder and higher in that bit, play harder too.

I especially liked the coda. Far and away the best part [Smile]

Cool stuff. [Smile]

thanks for all the feedback ya'll

i recorded it with guitar tracks 2.0 and my crappy $20 mike...it sounds good because i spent a looooong time on mixing and effects and stuff like that....

i also agree with you about the ending and if i get around to it i'll put up the longer version sometime....

I agree with twinky and Zotto!

I love checking out the music of fellow jatraqueros.

I just downloaded and listened to all of twinkys stuff today (I had heard about 5 of the songs before) and am really impressed.

I am going to put up some of my stuff on my website soon.

Keep sharing your creativity people!
