travelling in the car with me must be painful sometimes. getting ready to even pop to the garage or the shops i scan my cd collection - grabbing 5-6 cds for a 10 minute journey! at the moment all i am listening to is black metal or death (not usually the best music to drive to unless you want to get zapped by speed cameras!)
anyway i digress....the other day i picked out my brutal insanity album (my old band). i really like most of the music on it but it reminds me of bad times, petty squabbles etc. i suddenly had a eureka moment!
i find the cd plagued by shitty sounding weak guitars and tinny bass. i also hate some passages from it. so.... my idea is to not really remaster as such but to edit bits that don't do it for me and to write new guitar lines for each song and record them over it. keeping the original guitars but trying to beef the sound up a little bit. not sure if it'll work. anyway i guess it'll take a while what-with it having 12 songs on it. but i will cut two songs at least that i really don't like anyway - don't think i can make a good song from a bad starting point.
i'll be posting little bits here and may even make the whole thing available for download here when complete.
other that that i am still working on my black metal project but it's coming very slowly at the mo. also garnering ideas for and 80's cover cd for my parents xmas present - did my mum a cover of the stones "paint it black" last xmas and she loves it so asking various friends to add to my list of 80s covers. will whittle it down to 10 or so. got about 30 ideas so far. anyway here's a song from the brutal insanity album in its original form before i try and make it better.
