Re: An UTC band or orchestra
Hi all, have had a break from social media/news for a few days because it was all getting a bit depressing. Glad to see there is some interest!
In terms of style, I'm going just going to go with whatever best fits whatever I'm given. If possible, I won't add anything at all, but my thing these days is synthesis, so I might add some pads to fill out the sound.
That's a really good idea. You need to give me some marketing tips I was also in the process of creating a video backdrop from archival footage for the live show. I use a visualisation plugin which allows the video to interact with the music being played, so that the video 'responds' to the music.
Here is a link to some of my stuff:
If we can collect footage of people playing their instruments, or even just going about their everyday business in Burnley, then I could weave it together, and create a video to go with the song.
I've been reluctant to share my stuff because (a) I'm a perfectionist and none of it is ready for release and also (b) I appreciate my style is pretty arty, so not for everyone. For this though I really want to produce something catchy and accessible (not just for hipsters!), with a little hope and a little melancholy (so C major and A minor, the same notes in both a happy and a sad key, works well).
That would be brilliant mate - when you say you transfer the files amongst yourselves, does that mean you have been putting the tracks together remotely? Are the other musicians from Burnley/Clarets fans? Production quality is excellent - slightly grungey vibe which brings me back to my youth: if you can send over individual stems for something like that we will have something quite decent on our hands IMO.upanatem wrote: ↑Sun Apr 12, 2020 10:05 amI could contribute in some way. I have been playing guitar for just under 3 years and have written quite a few (mainly rock) chordal progressions. I am from a musical family, with some members having gigged professionally for many years. We have recently formed a band, FAM, and have written and produced 2 tracks, which are due for release on 17 April. We don't gig; we just transfer files amongst ourselves, mainly using Apple ProLogic. I would be happy to submit a chordal progression or two to get things started. To check out the quality of our stuff, there are some short tasters on the page below. Scroll down to 'Give Us Yer Money'. The 2nd track is called 'Wake Up!!'. I wrote both chordal progressions and play rhythm guitar on the tracks. We have also set up a record label, through which we release the tracks.

I have Logic and Audacity but I'm not familiar with Audacity. I'm not sure, but I could try importing the Audacity file into Logic. If it does't import, then I'll play the progression into Audacity – it can't be that difficult to work out. (Famous last words?)
Alternatively, if you post your drum file to the link that Hieronymous posted above, then it would be 'open' to anyone to have a go. As mentioned above, keep it to 120bpm.
This sounds like fun.
If you can provide drums that's an absolute god send because we can build everything around that. I can work with whatever I'm given, but if you can pair the drums and the guitar even better.
It's certainly something to do and it's easier to put your energies into a creative project when there are other people involved.

Hello HBH,
if you don't know Band Camp then it's difficult to explain, I did say I liked the thread and it was interesting and do hope to hear something, I really do.
Are you up early, working night shift or are you somewhere in the world that makes this time normal to you? I don't get to speak to man during this last few hours normally.

I felt that those that were able were beginning to come together to get this up an running.
There appears to be quite a bit of ability and willingness amongst our Claret ranks, it's just a shame it's come to this.
Who knows, someone with the technical ability may step out of the shadows.

OK, I'll step up. I'll record a guitar chordal rock progression @ 120bpm. I'll run a bog standard 'bum/splat' drum beat behind it, which can be removed later. I'll forward it to you, Funky, and you can do your bit on drums. I'll record it in Logic, and if you can't access this file, Funky, I'll drop it into Audacity.Funkydrummer wrote: ↑Sat Apr 18, 2020 10:04 amYeah, me too. Its' a real shame that it's come to this.

Then others will need to step up and do their bit in due course. We'll also need someone who can mix and master when we have all the individual tracks in place. So this person ideally will need either ProLogic, Cubase or similar plus a mastering programme, which requires additional software. (When I bought ProLogic it was around £200.) If we can get it mixed, I can get a family member to do the mastering. It's OK; he's a Clarets fan. But he doesn't come on this site. I might be able to persuade him to do the mixing as well depending on his time availability – he is a key worker – but the files would need to be in Logic.
Could someone please set up a 'dropbox' or similar to which we can upload our files so that all can listen to them as we progress? These would need to be tamper-proof so that mischief-makers from elsewhere (and maybe here!) can't ruin the project.
Does this sound like the beginnings of a plan?
Give me a week, which means it'll be sooner. (Under-promise and over-deliver.)

Now that sounds like a plan to me. Don't know too much about dropbox but had a quick look on YouTube and I think it's something that I could sort out for us. I will need to keep a careful check on security as we don't want it sabotaging by some brainless wazzock(s), or even thieving and claiming royalties when it becomes a smash hit !!!
I will be back if and when I sort it.
Thanks again mate

Re: An UTC band or orchestra
Okay dokay pal, I've installed dropbox and linked it to my gmail account on all my devices. I'm a novice at this and am flying by the seat of my pants, but I think you will have to install it as well. You can then send me the file via dropbox (using my email address) or, maybe quicker initially, to send me the file by email, I'll stick it in dropbox and then we both have access to it. We can then invite others to join the party as we go along.
I will do some more research on this, particularly on the security/privacy aspect. I think it goes without a saying that we each need to keep a pristine copy at all times, just in case.
Look forward to hearing from you.
As you say, let's give it a go.

I have just emailed Funky as follows:
Hi Funky,
Mp3 is attached.
The song comprises:
Intro riff
Verse
Chorus
Verse
Chorus
Middle 8
Chorus
The tempo is 110bpm. I felt that 120 was a tad fast. The key is A minor.
I played it in with only 1 or 2 takes. For the final version I will play more takes which will clean it up. But I won't do this yet because the vocalist(s) and/or others may want some amendments, which makes sense to do first before final takes.
There is no guitar or keys break. This may be slotted in as we go along, if we want one.
The ending riff is not meant to stay. I just played something in quickly to show the end of the song.
Do you want me to send Logic files of the guitar parts or shall I try copying them into Audacity?
I will post this email on the forum to keep people informed.
Regards,

Re: An UTC band or orchestra
Thanks for the emails, which is greatly appreciated. I've listened to the recording once through and think it's very good and that I can do something with it on the drums side of things. However, I will have to have a good think about it and work on it.
As regards Logic, Audacity etc, can I get back to you ? I need to explore the possibilities with Audacity as it's a while since I used it and I assume you will want the drumming on a separate "track" for editing and mastering purposes. I can't remember ever having done that tbh, but I'll get there.
I will also explore further the use of Dropbox for everyone to use.
Best wishes,

So serious question, given what you and funky are doing how long is it realistically until we can hear a song/music? I am just to reiterate really looking forward to this.
I have often said for decades I would give my husbands left testicle to be musical in a way I could play recreate music that was in tone and people actually knew what I was singing/playing.

You ask 'how long?'. Sorry, can't say. It is now up to others – we need Funky to do his bit, a bassist, ideally keys (but not essential), someone to write lyrics and a vocalist or several, depending on who steps up. Then all to be produced and mastered.

Dropbox or suchlike would be good so that interested Clarets can listen to our track as it develops.
Re: An UTC band or orchestra
This is an exciting project which is moving past embryo into practical output, now that the 'wobbly' folk have withdrawn.
Good luck.
It is normal that some 'creatives' lose perspective and go phut, while others rise to the occasion.
Looking forward to the magic.

Re: An UTC band or orchestra
I'm initially going to give it a try in Audacity and I have dropped your recording into it already. However, as you will appreciate I cannot separate out the background drumming, and it's influencing and confusing what I'm trying to come up with as I play along to it.
Is it possible that you could please send the "guitar only" track in the same format as previously ?
Cheers,

Is he/she a Clarets supporter?Devils_Advocate wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 1:46 pmGot a few contacts in the pop business and if you can finish the track and get Burnley to let you play it live on the pitch before their comeback game or at half time then I potentially have a well known singer lined up to front the band for you
Interesting idea re the performance at a match. I'm not sure about a live performance, though... this would require much practising beforehand to get the band really tight, and the sound system would need to be top-notch for it to come across well. Additionally, not all of us live near Burnley. Playing an MP3 or Wav file at a match would be great, however.

Re: An UTC band or orchestra
jd, the best scenario would be if you could also write lyrics and come up with a melody over what Funky and I are doing. The vocals are often more convincing if the singer has written them because of the emotional involvement. Are you up for this? Or, could someone co-wite with you? Just exploring options here.
