Give It A Rest

Release

StoreTags: mandolin, violin, baritone

Author: albatrocity on February 04 2007

--> Still some cleaning to do. I just realized it's fairly quiet. I'll fix that in the final mix. Feedback is always appreciated.
I love you guys!

P.S.
Drums, mandolin, classical guitar, tambourine, and baritone were recorded live. Violins were recorded, sampled, and pitched down an octave. The main bass and percussive hits come from an organ synth.

the drums are not totally locked in with the violins, to my ear. the violins are tight as hell.

i like the bright morning feeling of this-even like some of the looseness and touches, like the compression for instance. but i'm not crazy about all the looseness of the drums.

Very interesting. I like the compression on the drums too.

Maybe they do hit late in places though.

Thanks for the comments, guys.
I'll spend some time editing the drums later this week. They are live, so my flexibility is limited, but I think I can lock them in more.

Great mood to this song... like it a lot!

Where did you get your sounds? (strings and brass for example) Samples? Synth?. They sound quite real .
