DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Report Posted April 1, 2012 I finally did my vocal cover of "Octavia's Overture" by The Living Tombstone. Please give me some constructive criticism. http://soundcloud.com/deepbuckingbass/octavias-overture-living 1
Twimsy Posted April 1, 2012 Report Posted April 1, 2012 I like! :3 Overall I think it's quite a nice cover. I'd say your weakest parts were with the higher notes, but you did them pretty well at the ending. Did you do the vocals all in one go?
Twimsy Posted April 1, 2012 Report Posted April 1, 2012 Phew! You're a trooper, then. xD I always have a hard time going straight through a song.
DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 I'm actually about to do a oneshot of Nightmare night.
Twimsy Posted April 1, 2012 Report Posted April 1, 2012 Ooh, that should be fun! c: I'm excited to hear it, if you plan on posting it.
DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 That is if I can turn off my UKF Dubstep collection long enough to get it done.
DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 Yeah, it's not happening. I just tried, and didn't make it past the verse.
DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 I just didn't have it in me to do the hardcore vocals that I wanted to do. Instead, I slowed it down, and did a do-over of September. Last time I did it, I had a friend do it with me, and this version's a bit better, seeing as how I added some effects to the mix. http://soundcloud.com/deepbuckingbass/september-living-tombstone
DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 And by "didn't have it in me," I meant I've been up since 6 this morning, and it's now 1 a.m.
Twimsy Posted April 1, 2012 Report Posted April 1, 2012 Oof! Yeah, long days can wear you down. All I can offer is the typical advice - water, sleep and to try again at a later date.I like this second one though, too. :3 It's kinda creepy. You have a knack for the musical arts, good sir!
DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 Well thank you. Now, if only I had the vocal range to put the appropriate lyrics to my own song.
Twimsy Posted April 1, 2012 Report Posted April 1, 2012 Thrice-accursed vocal ranges. xP Only advice I can offer there is to maybe adjust the octave to more accommodate your range?
DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 Yeah, but then it doesn't sound right to me.
Twimsy Posted April 1, 2012 Report Posted April 1, 2012 Ah, yeah. D: It does tend to sound funky in some instances.
DeepBass Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 Yeah, that's why it sucks being a Bass in a genre that's predominantly Tenor.
