I think we should make a petition to have chabib make these threads stickied somewhere

You'd have thought somebody would have told one of the band members about this, or that S.S. Beat Control would have seen it when lurking.. but yeah, try to send an email chabib's way maybe? Worse things have been stickied.

Volume three thread coming soon!

Actually I wanted to wait till chabib's "return" (haven't seen him in a while on here), possibly after he finished editing 77boadrum :D ... but yes, this initiative is surely worth stickage, if not a very own section where Danny and I should have all the mod powers activated buaaa hah ah ah haaaaa <---- evil laughter.
Can you imagine a 3 cd "gossip tribute"compilation released through Ecstatic Peace :D ?? ha haaaaaaa sorry I'm overexcited coz I'm on a shopping spree.

I like the sound of that! :)

thanx :D it was fun to make, I think I'll definitely be contributing to vol.3

weekend bump!

I love the art haha.

Fuck man, I need to record a better version of a different song.
My abdn is really really lazy right now, no reason why,... just really busy with other shit. Hopefully we'll be able to do it for volume three...

Thanks :D!

PLEASE all you guys involved in vol.2 , ( except contre, chout, pork and all the others who contributed to vol.1 ) pm me a link to your myspace/band site/wathever to be included in the contributors' list.

They're both sounding awesome, surprisingly not much discussion or gossip about them yet.
I really enjoyed cantanky's 'within you, without out', did she do that all by her self? That looping psychedelic sound reminds me of the music played on the opening page of www.deadmeadow.com and that drum loop is pretty cool.
My favourite cover on the first volume is max and chout's 'screaming skull', well done on that, powerful guitars.

Yeah, actually we are (well, I am) not doing much to promote this thing, coz on the internet I read/write only on this forum and another little italian sy fans one... so, yeah, spread the word you blogosphere's gurus out there etc etc.
I bet that if chabib comes back and makes these threads stickied we would get more boarders interested.

Thanks for your appreciation, it's a pleasure to read nice comments on this project.

Promoting this thing would be difficult. Hopefully enough bloggers lurk here- we know rolling stone reads this forum from time to time..

Please contributors who did not send me a link to their site/myspace, wathever, do that soon, don't make me pm you one by one, my brain would melt. Thanks.
Added tasteinmen and contre's links, in the meantime, put the list in alphabetical order.

i haved sent a message to you. :)

Hey! If you're talking to me, I'm sorry but I didn't get any message :confused::( (yet).
Btw, welcome to the board, even if the link in your sig is kinda spammish looking.

hahah that would be so awesome

:) I've just listen to your tribute, really good job, congratulations, guys !!!:)
All the covers are pretty cool. Greenlight and Mildred Pierce are my favourites.
Your tributes are getting better and better, that 's awesome.

almost time to start a vol.3 thread, eh, danny?
thanks for bumping.
I can't bump this all the time, I'd look too possessive.

Yeah I'll make the vol 3 thread later on. This thread is getting pretty fat!

yessss, fatness is good in this case, and all with just 20 badongo dloads of vol.2 :D !
Dunno about the sharebee one.

oh god my vocals are so flat
i think i was pretty sick though
now that i listen to mine i really don't like it

I don't really like mine (it sounded better at home...) but I'm very happy to be part of the project though!
Thanx nicfit and Danny for keeping this going on so well!

A little suggestion for future "releases" : try to send stuff at higher bitrate (say, 192kbps or more), a few of the submissions for this vol were at 128kbps, and the sound isn't as good as it could be, I think 192kbps could be the right compromise between quality and size. Obviously for shorter things even higher bitrate is welcome.
And you can always send 22khz mono files at 64kbps and tell me to shut the f*ck up.
to.w , can't remember if yours was one of the 128kbs tracks, but your post made me remember about that little "suggestion" I wanted to post ;) .
I quite like your silver rocket version, btw.

Thanx nicfit. I think mine was one of these 128kbs tracks, yeah... That's why I called it "lo-fi" version...

I've listened back to mine and I think it's horrid, but then I was just messing around. Still an enjoyable thing to be part of.

I'm bummed noone did the screams for Mildred Pierce, I would've add 'em when I did bass if I knew noone else would do it.

add them and we'll make a ghost track out of the screaming version :D

for this or the next volume i will do a version of dirty boots. fill me in on the info via pm whoever.

vol.2 is done and finished (see my signature). No need for much infos, just record it and up it on some site and send the link privately via pm to danny :D. welcome on board!
p.s. here's the link to the vol.3 thread http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/showthread.php?t=17376

Just the badongo links (the only ones with the downloads counter):

vol.1 125 downloads
vol.2 28 downloads

lots more "plays" in the flashplayer (and that could be another reason why vol.2 has less dloads), though.
vol.2 songs have been played more than 60 times each, and the first track a whoppin' 158 times total!
unfair! :D

I think it could be just a matter of songs order, actually---- not sure.

Does anyone have a copy of this they could send me?

I can't find my copy of my version of Starpower. I had it on Soundclick but it was taken down for being a cover.

I would also like my version of Green Light, not sure where it's gone

I can only find Vol.1 & Vol.3
