They wanted it by 4.<br /><br />The beats were laid down quickly, although we realised that the loop on the record is is a strange number of bars. The loop never actually repeats itself from the start, and so most of the bars miss their downbeat. Very strange - this one had us sweating.<br /><br />The only solution was to record some guide vocals quickly to work out the song structure.<br /><br />We reckon John Squire is one of the best guitarists this country has ever produced - were we able to play like the flop haired master? <br /><br />Well.. no - but after careful scrutiny of his parts we realised they're not all that difficult. So.. a bit of wah-wah guitar then. We took each section's riffs and played them 4 times to build up a fatter guitar part.<br /><br />Bass - no problem.<br /><br />Even the mix came together in record time, and sounded brilliant :) We finsihed mastering it at 4pm exactly.<br /><br />Thats how we did Fools Gold in a day.<br /><br />The results can be found here <a href="http://www.trackfish.com">http://www.trackfish.com</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11582678-112854115512538458?l=trackfish.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Trackfishhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15162936985545575498noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11582678.post-1127902873552883392005-09-28T10:17:00.000Z2005-10-05T19:45:10.216ZWe have been working hard over the summer to expand on our online catalogue.
