Crappy equipment, bad acoustics, and a video camera as our only recording device.

These are just a couple of experiments we were messing around with last weeked at Burnt Basement Studios.

I am going to put up a couple more short clips tonight. I would greatly appreciate some feedback.

This is something you listen to while high and go, "duuuude......."

For real, I almost got high just listening to it.

yeah, I am sure some people will look down their noses at that aspect of it. It's all about "the feel" for us. I've come to realize that most people either love it or hate it.


thanks for taking a look!

I like it. I struggle with the same issues, using a bad mic in a bad environment. One thing you can do is load the audio into audacity or some program, select all of the audio and go to effects > Compressor. It should take out some of the clipping and buzzing.

Reminds me of when me and my friends jam, I like it. Space jams, always a good time.

That brings back some memories. We used to jam the crap out of China Cat Sunflower->I Know You Rider. Fun stuff. Thanks for bringing back the memories.

As far as you guys go. As was already mentioned this might be fairly salvageable if you throw it into Audacity and clean the tracks up with a compressor. Next time put the camera on the otherside. Like on the staircase over there. That way we'll get the front of you guys instead of the back of you guys.
