This is where I got the FACGCE tuning idea from. I'm all about alternate tunings.

Yeah definitely check out American Football, they're great. His acoustic solostuff under the name Owen is great as well.Larry Mal wrote: ↑Fri Apr 05, 2024 6:16 amHey, that's a good song, I'll listen to that more.

I got that tuning from that video, but there's a guitar player called Yvette Young and honestly I'm not usually into guitar playing for its own sake, but she's a lot of fun to hear. Very original and skilled.
I LOVE the guitar work on this track, Larry. I am listening to the other tracks now.Larry Mal wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2024 8:30 amUse this drummer- - Francesca is amazing.crazyzeke wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2024 3:52 amI had no idea this thread existed when I made mine. Basically I'm looking for string players but if anyone can do live drums that'd be good too, the drummer I had lined up for my originals project has been promising to do some but 3 weeks later, I'm not seeing any Google Drive or whatever links coming my way with drum stems
Here's her on one of my songs.
Hey, thanks. Yeah, my SoundCloud is a grab bag of things I thought were good over the years, stuff I might return to and complete. At some point I'll turn it into a "real" page with completed songs.BoringPostcards wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 4:00 am

I should really get my SoundCloud back up and running. Haven’t posted on there in years.
I'm fascinated by this. She's a great drummer! But it looks like she's perpetually in an A studio with a multi thousand dollar mic cabinet pointed at a multi thousand dollar kit.
Yeah, my SoundCloud is pretty much the same. Your stuff is higher quality though. Mine are all lo-fi recordings of guitar pieces or song ideas either with a computer mic or a cellphone, lol.Larry Mal wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 5:44 amHey, thanks.

I pay in the neighborhood of $65 for the two songs she's done for me. She gets them to me in a day. But I suppose she gives herself five days.seenoevil II wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 6:27 am

And it's only 20 bucks per track? And she only gives herself 5 days? I just don't know who or how anyone is making money here. Unless she's just grinding for XP.

Not since somebody hacked my account and deleted my acoustic cover of Tori Amos’ Cornflake Girl translated to guitar from piano. I was proud of it. It had over 40k views and lots of nice comments. One day it just vanished. They claim I deleted it. Why would I do that?
BoringPostcards wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 6:45 amAnyhow, I may be able to contribute some riffs or leads on a collab. I now use garage band on my recently purchased MacBook Pro. An upgrade from using a cell phone or a 4-track. I’ll probably still use a shit mic and it’ll be lo-fi, but whatever that’s kind of my thing.
I won't quote the whole post but that was an interesting read, thank you for sharing. Marquee Moon is literally one of my favourite pieces of electric guitar music - I used to sing and play it a lot - and a great example not just of drums but wonderful two guitar interplay and wildly inventive solos, I love it. Torn Curtain on the same album is another highlight.Larry Mal wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 7:17 amAs a lapsed drummer I will listen to what she plays with fascination, I do that with drums in general. She's incredible, she drives the music but with finesse and nuance, the dynamics of her playing are incredible.
The hi-hat is the magic of the drum kit, I mean it's all important, but the hi-hat is where genius lives in my opinion, and she's got it. A very good example of another drummer that is a genius at the hi-hat is Billy Ficca on Television's Marquee Moon song.
Larry Mal wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 7:17 amThat blew my mind- instead of just adding more and more to build intensity she made more out of less. I cannot recommend Francesca enough. I need to get her more music.
If I'm going to brag about myself I really like my bass playing, since the songs were constructed around the guitar and the guitar is pretty tight I decided to let the bass be loose, and didn't really work on the parts all that much in order to get that. I could have made them "better" but since I'm making these things in a modular way I am trying to make it seem like a group of people playing it together.
