Acousticrock87 - yeah, that extra beat in the bar got me too, which I why I came up with 5/8 in the end...

i'm just going to go borrow my friend's bass drum
the only reason i asked for the time signature was because i was trying to use stupid garageband shit

i don't think it's in 5/8 really, i'm just talking about the drum, not the little tambourine bit which is not synchronised with the drum.

Actually I started it from the beginning, and I don't think there is an extra beat. The tambourine just fucks around randomly in a few parts. It stays steady through the whole thing, I think. 2/4

^^^Hope yer recording of bass drum stuff goes OK.

the bass and guitar are not the same part
nor are the drum and the tambourine

it will, i'm perfectly fine if i have a real instrument but if i actually have to put together a loop on the computer that's when it gets difficult.

It definitely works in 4/4, but it has a weird feel to it. I'm not sure what it is exactly. I think every instrument is syncopated a little differently. Or it's because Lou's vocals drag way behind the beat. Kinda Billie Holiday-ish.

said friend is on the way over with said bass drum. even though it's 6.30 AM.

Cantanky prepares to bang the drum for ROCK!

Depending on how good your mic is, you can sometimes pull off a bass drum sound by stomping or hitting something near the mic. You just gotta mess around with it a little.

But if you're friend will serve you a drum, that's definitely a better choice.

she bangs the druuuuuuuuummsssssss

Oh fuck a huge brown recluse spider crawled right across my lap

I mean it was like 2inx2in. It was HUGE.

I hate spiders. Now I won't be able to sleep ever again.

I just realised you're a girl!

I just realized I'm a girl too!

It's been a while since we had a "....is a girl/boy" thread.

i'm an it.


if i hear another metronome ever again in my life i'm going to shoot myself in the face.

I left the CD going in the background, and forgot how fucking awesome the end of Heroin is. Fucking Cale...

"holy shit that's a lot of fuckin cum, DUDE!" - recent jenna haze quote

That's exactly why I don't listen to it.

She has such an annoying voice.

the only song she sings on that album that i like is all tomorrow's parties. it's not her voice, i just don't like femme fatale or i'll be your mirror very much.
