Chatted for a bit with J. this morning, heard the drums for the alleged future big single. It sounded amazing! I was hoping he would've had the time to finish it up and send it off tonight, but no luck. We did, however, get the first two songs sent our way. Drums & Bass and the original demos over the top. Still waiting on the rhythm tracks by themselves. He sent a giant message with his thoughts while we were all away from the computer. He seems to like talking to himself when none of us are around. Oh, and he seems to think that my best option, recording-wise is to combine my BOSS 1180BR-CD with ProTools 8, and an M-Audio Interface. I suspect he's right, I've just got to see how much that will set me back. In a perfect world, I'd find a way to get myself a Les Paul too, but now I'm just dreaming.
Skyped with B. tonight too. We talked cover songs, writing sessions, and chord progressions from the original demos. She figured out what it was she had played on the next one we might work on getting drums for, which rocks because I've wondered how she played that for 5 years now. I told her, excitedly, about the drum track I heard this morning, and we both downloaded the tracks J. left for us to listen to.
Oh, and I think I finally talked her into trying to cover "Gone Away" by Offspring and maybe "Fell On Black Days" by Soundgarden. I also mentioned Zeppelin's "When The Levee Breaks," because it's just one of the heaviest things I've ever heard. I expected her to laugh hysterically, but instead, she freaked out, told me it was her favorite Zep song EVER, and said we ought to go for it. That was a happy surprise. I never thought she'd go for it in a million years.
That's all for tonight... hopefully we'll get a few more tracks tomorrow.
