Pimp Your Stuff Thursday
Mar. 25th, 2010 12:18 pmA few things for you today:
- I don't believe I properly mentioned I'll be at KittenCon in two weeks.
- Thanks to Eric Coleman, I'll also be at DemiCon in Des Moines, IA, May 14-16.
- Here for your downloading pleasure is a very, very rough mix of "307 Ale". It's nothing close to final, and I'm definitely going to redo the vocals. If you can't tell at the beginning how rough it is, you'll damn sure know during the last verse. But those aren't the important parts.
The important parts are [a] the key and tempo are what they should be, and [b] I want all of you to sing with me.
Rev up your copy of Audacity or whatever, and sing along with the choruses (don't worry about the first one). If you want to sing along with the verses, too, or make boisterous barroom background banter, go for it. And then send me an mp3 (at least 64 Kbps, 128+ Kbps preferred) of just your voice -- either directly e-mailed to me, or e-mail me a link to YouSendIt or MegaUpload or wherever you stash files online.
VERY IMPORTANT! Don't put any effects on it -- dry vocals only -- and make sure you don't have my backing track in the background with it.
And, when I get the final version together, I'll cram as many of you in there as I can, and we'll have the biggest virtual singalong you've ever seen. Deadline is April 26 -- I'd like to have this in time for PenguiCon.
Ready... set... pimp your stuff!
ETA: Gaaaaah. The arrangement got out of whack somehow. Give me five minutes to re-upload... fixed.
