Hi Alan, I'm still finding my way around Indaba as well, just checking out sessions and finding contacts. Looking forward to working with you if anything good comes up. Oscar
I hear Syntheory hit the studio this week?! How'd it go? I hope all went well. Looking forward to hearing some! Fresh metal!
Hey there Mr. Cox, I have uploaded the new "Groove Trip" tracks. It's ready for you to fatten up, or what ever you wish to do with it, as long as its goooooood. Let me know what you think. But, you must be honest. Please. Pick it apart, flip it over, "smack it, flip it, rub it down. ...Oh No...." Anyway, it's there. Talk later \\m//
Hey Alan, Thanks for the comments and feedback. Glad to hear you’ve landed a really cool gig. I will most definitely check out your myspace page. Regarding the crude “Groove Trip” track, I recorded it on an analog four track one night so that I could post it on a few of the online musician classified websites to give potential band members something to hear. It was recorded in three takes …right rhythm, left rhythm, then solo. The only thing I didn’t like, other than the sound quality, was at the end, where it goes back into the verse riff, right under the second half of the solo. I am re-recording it on some new software that I’ve purchased. I hope to have it completed by the end of this week, if not next week. I would really appreciate if you could drop some base lines on it. Just hold off on it until I upload the new “Groove Trip” track. It’s in Drop C, by the way. Thanks, and Keep on Rockin’!
