Description: Hi, it's me I'm back! I've got a new song which I think is alright. It is not one of the better ones, but I do think that it is worth listening to, just for the bassline. I hope you enjoy!

Good to find you here on The Truth Cannon__

a jam session with you would be quite fun :)

Rowland S Howard – Dead Radio

9/30 Revised #4- 
I applied Klanghelm DC8C and IVGI on the guitar. With that, the guitar got smoother and thicker a bit. :) Also, I applied DC8C on the master bus. It's really transparent and smooth. I like it! 
The compressor can be punchy or aggressive as well but I find it more suits for fine control on vocal, clean guitar, sub mix or master bus. And I employed automated high-pass filter to the points where the low end of the guitar is too much. 

2014 9/19 revised #3 - minor tweaks 
2014 9/18 revised #2 - minor tweaks 
2014 9/17 revised #1 - some of the guitar part and other trivial settings.

This Jazz song is not up-tempo or mellow. Maybe some of you are not familiar with Jazz feel these guitar phrases are out of tune or scales. xD But I like the kind of spooky vibe. 

Basically the guitar phases in the song are simple but it was quite difficult to play with unfamiliar rhythm 4/6 and to program irregular snare hits. 

the hihat, cymbal and toms are a free drum kit Sennheiser's DrumMic’a. I like the pristine sound. When it comes to hihat or cymbal, it can compete with BFD or Superior Drummer.

For analog-taste and glue effect, I inserted Sonimus Satson CM and IK's Pulteq type EQ on every channel. (I've heard that the EQ and IK's Fairchild give harmonics just by inserting on channels even if they are not tweaked at all) 
I didn't check it out with "bypass" but it might work. :) Also, I applied Tonebooster's Reelbus on the master channel. 

This Upright bass is Sampletank 3, btw. For powerful and heavy sound, I boosted the low end of the upright bass but Maybe the low end could be too much on your audio system. If so, please let me know.

Another cover, this time of Fleetwood Mac's "The Ledge" from the Tusk Album.  It's a good cover of a song which is one of my favorites of that album. I always loved the idea that Tusk was the most expensive Album at the time, yet a lot of sounded like it was recorded on a £5.00 tape recorder!

Oh yeah, it just so happens I don't own the rights to this song!

Crime and The City Solution - All Must Be Love

I actually don't know where this comes from, if you do... leave me a comment.  I found it online years ago.  It's essentially the regular song with sound effects added.

Warren zevon - Werewolves of London (Halloween Remix)

Open the door to Magpie, and love the music I give you!
