I'll take the guys on either end in the picture that's part of your signature. What, they're not available? Forget it then! BTW: If I had to, I could fill in on zither & detuned washboard, but mind you just in a pinch...I've also plucked a comb, but I have to admit it doesn't sound like much, can't cut through the mix of a whole band...

I am a reasonably good male singer with a reasonably low voice.

I can sing decently, but I don't have any quality recording equipment. I have a real microphone, and I could get my hands on an amp, but my actual recording equipment consists of one decent PC microphone.

I won't be of any help I guess.. I can't play any real instruments and normally compose experimental electronic (space) music via MIDI programming. Wink
Interested in my reviews?

In all seriousness I would be interested but I need a lot more practice before I can even consider it.

Cyggnus & Progtologist look like they're sitting uncomfortably, as if they've just gone through some invasive procedure. Hey Progtologist, anything you want to share with us? Cyggnus, that looks like one of those cheap Ibanez GAX models, time to upgrade...! And for heaven's sake, plug in guys, I can't hear anything (not the drummers & the Miracle, of course)...
 
Bj-1, you are the wallrus! Stonebeard, your mother named you correctly! Any family connections back to Easter Island? Dual bass players are HOT! One can play the bass lines while the other can, uhhh...play the bass lines...

I wish whoever moved this had left a redirect in the original forum. I had no idea where the topic went. I used the search feature to find it, but still.

I`ve done these things before.
some origianl stuff and some Covers.
 
the covers was most fun to do.
 
We did E.L.P, Deep Purple, Sabbath, and Zep.
 
Its very recomendable, that you all use the same recording sequencer, (like Cubase-sonar-or others).
 
 
Also using Pc-mics and Sounblaster interfaces is not recomendable.
The noise level on the recording will be very bad to put in a mix, and will stand out.
 
I think if you spend your money wisely, you can score a good mic and interface for around 200$
 
 
I`m quite busy for the moment, in the middle of building my studio accoustics.
So Icant record for a little while.
 
On the other hand if there`s room for another musican  I`d be intrested, I play the guitar\ do some keyboard arranging, a little flute, and lots of Vox.
 
 
Check my sig if your intrested, it directs you to some of my recordings...
 
 
anyway Good luckSmile

I'm doing this right now with Myself (New York;keyboards, cello, vocals) my cousin (Vermont; Drums, percussion, vocals) My friend Charlie (New York city; Bass) and my cousin's freind Trey (Massechusettes, Guitar). We haven't recorded anything yet, but we have a hell of a lot of material written for it. Its really cool

It's a mizture of older symphonic prog (Genesis, Yes, KC, and Gentle Giant mostly) and more modern stuff like DT, SX, Planet X, and Chroma key.
 
Its really good so far. Once we have stuff recorded I'll put it up here.

I can play anything you'd ever want played on an electric bass. I also play classical and jazz upright bass. Give me a holler if you need any tracks.

If you guys are serious, put up a link to some tunage.
 
Let some of us give a listen & provide some feedback or parts to add.
 
I'm a computer musician, not very talented when it comes to performing but I can write & the PC allows me to put my parts down without having to play them at speed.
 
Listen to my stuff - if you like what you hear, let me know where to hear your stuff.
 
Stop talking about it & lets hear some music.

I downloaded a bunch of your stuff & like what I hear. I haven't listened to enough to form a real opinion yet, but I will give it all a listen this weekend & provide some comments on your SoundClick message page.

I'd be interested to do this. I play keyboards and guitar. I also have a very wide singing range (my mother says I can reach higher than high, while my voice usually is deeper than my father's) but can't sing good.

We could do it like this:
one person, say, the rhythm guitarist writes the basic structure and notes the chords. He records it, then sends the song to the bassist who adds his bass lines, then the keyboardists adds the keyboard sounds, then the lead guitarist adds his part, then the drums, then the vocals etc.

Like a song collab!

I also have Cubase SE

I appreciate the comments. I have a couple of songs I'm working on that I'm trying to add some vocals to ... but you do NOT want to hear me sing! A coworker has offered to add vocals & I will take him up on it eventually.  I'm always open to another point of view.
 
I'm certainly no virtuoso. This is all done on the PC a few notes or phrases at a time. My playing skills pretty much blow. But thanks to the PC I'm able to make the music I hear in my head.
 
I've been told that my music doesn't invite itself to vocals because there's no room for the words. I also don't think I'm very good at writing melodies to existing words. Guess I need to put something up somewhere & get some opinions.
 
I'm working on some stuff for a "Fake" band called The Rug Doctors that will be a little heavier than the Aardvark stuff. This is where the vocals will come in.
 
I'll let you know when I have something for you to work on - let me think about it for a bit.
