rezzeJ, maybe the same type of sensibilities you put forth for this one: https://hubski.com/pub?id=175735
Any feedback is welcome. Here are the lyrics:
I've seen the waves and
I've seen the sky
I've fought them both
And I've barely tried
And I saw my teeth gnashing
At them both
The sound of one hand clapping
As she goes
And I saw my teeth gnashing
At your boat
The sound of one hand clapping
As you go
Tell the sidelines it's hard to breath
The wounded hairlip fell to his knees
As the cracked moon smiles showing teeth
It's getting harder, harder to breath
Take those breaths cause
In your death
I die too
I am me in you
Take those breaths cause
In your death
I die too I am me in you
I die too I am
Tell the sidelines its hard to breath
the wounded hairlip fell to his knees
The cracked moon smiled showing teeth
It's getting harder to breathe
This is beautiful. When are we making a full length Hubski album? thenewgreen?
I know kleinbl00 was kind enough to offer his mixing abilities. I think it's a great idea, but I don't have much time these days. I wouldn't be able to spearhead the project. If someone else wants to grab the reins, I'm all for it. We could put the album art up for any hubskiers to create, we can do a kickstarter campaign to print some vinyl, and if, and this is a big if, the album made any money we could pick a charity to donate all of it to.
It wouldn't have to be something we got done within a specific time frame but rather just something that comes about from collaborations like this. How many tunes would you say have been completed through the hubskioriginalmusicclub?
I'd say that's definitely enough for an album. How do we go about this? Does kleinbl00 have all he would need to mix it?
No, he definitely does not. Many of us would have to send him files and that would likely have to be in an orchestrated way, imo, so we are not just all throwing files at him. I think we should take a look at the songs we have and pick one or two at a time to send his way, if he is still game. Here is a link with some of the songs we've collaborated on:
Not even vaguely. thenewgreen posts mixes and that's it... and his mixes need some work. It's on him and he knows it.
rezzeJ, I love this so much. So much! I want to add a piano part and perhaps a shaker, other than that, I think it's pretty dope! Nice work BLOB_CASTLE and rezzeJ! -I think we made a nice piece of music together. You guys rule!
With electric and upright bass Just upright bass
rezzeJ you're up pal! Use the one with bowed bass. I dig the ending BC, nice work!!
Excellent, the bowed bass sounds great BLOB_CASTLE. I was playing around with some ideas last night that I'll get recorded tonight or tomorrow.
My pleasure man. I love collaborating like this.
Thank you, it had been a long time since I had played or written anything and I think I had a lot to get out. I'm glad you enjoyed it. You and BLOB_CASTLE should coordinate to make sure we don't miss someone's part. I look forward to hearing what you come up with.
Nice work, I enjoyed your breathing techniques :-) I like how understated is, hopefully someone here will add some percussion, maybe even drums and it may beg for more base, who knows? But as of right now, this feels very appropriate. Thanks! I hope you enjoyed working on it
Oh yes definitely. It was very meditative. I've been working on playing more simply and allowing my playing to benefit the song as a whole. I was thinking about adding some bow underneath (or above?). What do you say ol' chap?
go to town! I have been playing violin of late and may try and add some strings on top of what you do.
I think at around :17 my recorder caught my exhale. I dig it.
Did you add more than just bass? Am I crazy or am I hearing some soft bells or something like that? At first I thought they were harmonics.
Check out the solo bass track. I'm playing octaves. That bell sound you're hearing is a higher D (but not the highest D).
BLOB_CASTLE -This one doesn't have bass or bowed bass... just sayin.
Recorded it this morning and is currently uploading to soundcloud. With Fossil internet it may take a little bit of time though haha
That's awesome! Let me know when it's up, I have to leave the office and I'll wait till I can listen.
btw, I love the rhyme of gnashing and clapping; both and goes and boat and go; breathe and knees and teeth. (Random readers, pm me for the hockey backstory)the wounded hairlip fell to his knees
poor hairlip. If this song is about anything, it's about compassion -- but, as always, when you start playing hockey, it can take you to some interesting places.
Thanks for listening lil. For what it's worth, I was born with a cleft pallet and was supposed to have a "harelip" but it healed in utero, leaving me with a "hair-line" scar that ran from my nose to my lip. The scar is too faded to notice these days, but I often use "hairlip" in my writing to be self-referential.
