This year Big Dumb Animals had the opportunity to participate in the Troutdale Poetry Experiment, aka Deep Roots. We picked out a poem from a fine young gentleman named Keith Gaxiola. Below are the many versions of the song we went through looking for the perfect match. | ||||
Version 1: Early recording of the full band playing through the chord changes Version 2: First Garage Band attempt, Eric & Barry Version 3: Same as 2 but with additional instruments and big modulation finish in the second half Version 4: First try at a punk song, there are no vocals on this. Version 5: Same as 4 but with vocals Version 6: Second try of the punk version. I have included the appropriate spacing after the first verse and before the end section. Also, there are two separate vocals tracks here playing in unison. Version 7: Same as 6 but with new vocal tracks (and cleaned up the opening guitar). This version has harmony vocals throughout. Version 8: First rough mix with Dave. Very dirty, very naughty. Version 9: Final mix from Dave. This will be submitted to mastering, so should have a bit more compression on it before it's done.
