Post Your Very First Recordings
 
I'm sure there's been a thread or two about this before. But, there are some really good recording artists who post on this board. & I think it would be interesting to hear how they sounded when they first got to work.
I'll start us off. These are my very fisrt recordings using a 4-track, & the first time recording myself. & seeing as how I had to do the actual, so-called, pressing of the button, & record all of the instruments myself. & mix the damn thing. I'd say I did o.k. But mind you, they are demos through & through.

Let me know what you think. & don't forget this thread is for everyone's music.

marleypumpkin 03.23.2006 08:41 AM

So, is anyone gonna post their early recordings? If not, at least listen to mine & tell me what you think. Damn, I thought that this would be a cool enough thread, for everyone.

shentov 03.23.2006 08:43 AM

i should upload some shit from my early punk period band. but later.
check my latest stuff on the other thread.

marleypumpkin 03.23.2006 08:49 AM

I wish I could shentov, but the sound card for my PC is fucked up & I can't listen to anything on my computer. Please say you'll listen to my stuff. Won't you?

shentov 03.23.2006 08:51 AM

yuck. go repair that computer. i'm going to take a listen later. now i am at work.

Savage Clone 03.23.2006 08:53 AM

I would, but they are on cassette and I have no transference technology here.
I can post earliest stuff I have on CD, maybe later.

marleypumpkin 03.23.2006 08:54 AM

Thanks for listening shentov.

I know, this computer is a piece of shit. I wish I could repair it, but I have no Idea where to go to get it fixed. & I'm pretty sure it would be expensive.

Shit, that's what these recordings were on originally. But, I got lucky & found a way to get them uploaded. Have you listened to my recordings Savage Clone?

marleypumpkin 03.23.2006 11:12 AM

So, I guess I'm the only one who had the guts to post early recordings. I know Lee & Thurston would post their stuff. & listen to my stuff. (I wish)

marleypumpkin 03.23.2006 12:01 PM

Please remember to post any comments you have on what you hear through this thread. Thank You

maryleypumpkin when i click on your link i just get a page saying this-

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Lost connection to MySQL server during query in /usr/local/www/virtual/www.badongo.com/include/mysql.php on line 16
No access to Server

not sure why though,

Everyneurotic 03.23.2006 02:47 PM

i have a cassette of my first "band" which was just me and a drummer playing "metal" (we strived for it but never achieved it, we were so dumb i didn't know how to turn on the distorion on my amp)

i had some mp3s of my former band at iuma but iuma seems to be down or something, i'll upload them latter

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 03.23.2006 02:53 PM

I think I might have taped over them. I'll go look in my room for my tapes.

saoq 03.23.2006 04:02 PM

-marleypumpkin, i get a no access to server error page when i click yr stuff.

i just uploaded a snippet of the earliest recording i have, this is made in 1997 or so -i was in highschool. basically it's feedback and Shortwave static and start-stop tape action. it's the one named OLD DRONE
link: http://www.buzzmusic.de/index.php?id...ils&userid=463

the whole thing was 30 mins long. I remember being quite proud after finishing it - i still am in a way.

marleypumpkin 03.23.2006 10:27 PM

I just clicked on the links I posted & they worked fine for me. Please try again, & if it still doesn't work, I'll make a new link.

golden child 03.23.2006 10:53 PM

HaydenAsche 03.23.2006 11:18 PM

I am listening to them now, again. It brings back the memories of thurstonmoore and the first of my 3 myspace profiles.

Inhuman 03.23.2006 11:21 PM

Here's my first recording with my friend a while ago. It's so embarrasingly terrible and the song sucks hXc.

marleypumpkin 03.23.2006 11:21 PM

Golden Child: Have you listened to any of my later recordings?

Don't be ashamed, my recordings sound like shit. It was the first mixing experience I ever had.

contrelefuckingsexisme 03.24.2006 12:03 AM

hahahahaha
my very first recordings are fucking embarrasing.

themawt71 03.24.2006 12:07 AM

[http://www.badongo.com/file/349111]

this is from 96 when i was 17 i think. 4track tape with 2 electric gtrs 1 acoustic gtr and a fender rhodes. just me

marleypumpkin 03.24.2006 12:07 AM

contrelefuckingsexisme

Don't be embaressed. That's pretty much what this thread is for. Have you listened to the tracks I posted? Or anyone else's for that matter. I'd love to hear what you think of my early recordings. I'll be honest, I did a horrible mixing job on my tracks.

marleypumpkin 03.24.2006 03:31 AM

Is there anybody else who's willing to be embarass themselves? I know I am.

(side bar): I wonder what Kim, Lee, & Thurston's first recordings sounds like?

Thanks man. If you notice in the one I put up, we did it on a computer with a terrible sound card, and so the channelling messed up on us and they weren't adjacent to each other. I really don't like the style of music that I played back then.

marleypumpkin 03.24.2006 08:32 AM

Well, we do sometimes have to look back to see how are music writing talents evolved. I think I've outgrown the type of music that I first started writing as well. Did you hear how terrible my tracks were mixed?

Everyneurotic 03.24.2006 10:52 AM

i am so posting my stuff, maybe tonight

people into no wave will love it!!

Nice, I'll give yours and Marley's a listen once I get home tonight :p

marleypumpkin 03.24.2006 10:08 PM

We can't wait to hear what you think. Thanks for listening.

Everyneurotic 03.24.2006 10:10 PM

i'll rip it either tonight or tomorrow, it's pretty crazy stuff.

i'm only posting side 1 of the tape, though
