This thread is about cool stuff like music! When you can record your song with Excel, post it here

This suggests LiveEvil should move his stats spreadsheet tracking points to a different thread? Or am I missing something.

Thank you @LiveeviL2000

Eleven days remain in Main Event Round 2 my brothers.

Expect a flood of submissions to come in over the next week... by my calculation up to a possible TWENTY-SIX more entries in the various categorizations allowed: Rock-to-Folk, Folk-to-Rock, and Punk'd

Remember, in the event of a tied vote, the earlier submission wins so delaying your
entry may work against you if the vote is close.

Ok, lets make that twenty-five submissions we have to wait for, this one is the opposite of fun and light, sorry!

My take on the Barry Mcguire version of "Eve of Destruction" with an "Edgy" guitar treatment, and a lyrical update.
It was an anti-war protest song released in 1965, written by PF Sloan. "Eve" actually knocked "Help" by the Beatles out of
#1 position on the Billboard charts back in the day. I chose it because it's a nice compliment to my Megadeth submission,
"Symphony" being another destruction-themed song.


Sorry about the choppy "something to look at" video. It's better than a blank screen.
I actually made a real video, not suitable here.

Production notes:
I had fun doing the ping-pongy pans of the bitey echo guitar track, never tried that before, and I was able to utilize sends to another track for the first time for reverb and a stereo separation plugin I was digging. It's kind of a headphone thing.
I also employed a light touch of gritty gain on my vocal for the very first time, but kept it subtle.

Four guitar tracks. One echoey high bite, one lower clean delay chugga rhythm, one dirty power chord chugga rhythm no echo, one open chord clean that's hardly in the mix

Learning when enough is enough is still a challenge. Always wanted to try something in the "Edge" sort of vein but getting that vibe down was tricker than I thought it would be.

Wow! What a take! Nice mix and instrumentation, very cool production!!
 
If you are watching RiffMasters but not contributing music, all I ask is keep your posts relevant. You are absolutely welcome to comment on the gameplay, the music, the players, strategy etc.

Please keep on topic as it is absolute madness sorting through hundreds and hundred of posts keeping track of submissions.

This round started at #702 we are closing in on #1,300 now, and it may be 1,500 before it's done.

All I am asking is please have some consideration. It's not real easy here on the back end.

Thank you kindly!

For some strange reason i was driving down the road on the way to a call & thought

is there a way to make a submission only thread to house the music. Then a separate one for other stuff. So it gets to the point we give up trying to figure all out in any kind of order. Some submissions are getting buried ..its about the music man lol
 
Oh MY! in between busy moderation duties, @Thatbastarddon LEVELS the crowd with
a MASSIVE SONIC BLAST with beautiful, carefully-considered lyrics.

iu


I sense his forum duties have somewhat influenced much of the anger and frustration on display and he can thank me for that privately. Just can't figure out why his hair and beard don't quite match up.

SINGLE POINT @Thatbastarddon

Also, C-Grin appears to have attained a new inspiration tool instead of that fuzz pedal he's been pining for.
Is the recent 32% price inflation on Lava lamps due to RiffMasters?
