wishing I was better at this music/sound thing
okay so I was trying to figure out how to cover skulls[misfits], and it sounded by my count that the notes were changing every second, so 120bpm. but then the drums were more like 160bpm. so I figured, what the hell. and I recorded all the midi shit at 120bpm and the drums at 160bpm. and I uploaded the results earlier today. and then I realized that it sounded like shit.
my current theory is that this has something to do with time signatures.
and I only know how to program 4/4
and on guitar I can play 2/4 and 3/4 and 4/4
but I don't know what the hell skulls is. maybe i'm wrong.
anyway...
so I rerecorded drums at 120 and 240bpm and changed the vocals to be more electro [IE distorted poorly]. see, i couldn't figure out the rhythm of how to sing along with the mess i had created originally, so I just sang along to the original and hacked that to where it was supposed to sorta be.
and then i blamed the poor results on the fact that I was singing into a pair of headphones [microphones are the the bouegiouse classes, of course]
whereas really what happened was that I suck.
it still sucks now but hopefully its an endearing suck.
which is important because its my christmas present to my friend bethzig [who, as you might be able to guess, is fond of danzig]
the lesson learned today is that its not what equipment you have, its how you use it. unless you don't have any equipment.
