Collected Animals

wow thanks guys will post principe after i work on it some more, it's pretty rough/sparse

sounds cool dud! good vox

Thanks for digging dud and I's covers! I played drums, keyboard, and bass on the tracks. Will be adding some vocal input soon! More to come 4sure

we did a cool cover of Good House, where's the best place on here to post it?

i think faces in the crowd works best because it does a totally charming job of convincing us that the song should be done with just drums and vox with sparse bass and the organ's a really nice touch. the end is even a little jarring because it pulls you out of that world (feels too digital and isolated from the garage we were in at the start, even if that was a fiction in the first place).

it's harder to do that with yr PR because you're basically playing the original arrangement on real instruments instead of with electronics. harder to win me over i think. the deakin is nice but belongs in http://collectedanimals.org/viewtopic.php?t=132

cool thanks for the feedback! lots of food for thought. makes me wanna go back and change the ending of ol' faces so it stays consistent with that vibe, that's a really good point. but idk maybe it's cool that it is jarring/clashing though? and i didn't realize people could access PR via the soundcloud account lol whoops. really appreciate the feedback.

do we have an up to date soundcloud playlist of all the covers so far?

What tracklisting are we gonna go with?

we could do like a mr CA ep with the mr noah songs or we could do a massive triple album with all the songs on it.

how much more will it cost to do the triple LP vs double?

Only $20 more, actually

Unfinished songs: Butcher-Baker-Candlestick Maker....that's it! (assuming the unfinished Garage/Crosswords and Boys Latin covers get finished).

We could just compile everything in the same order as the album, but there are a couple of problems:
-We don't know what these tracks are: Davy Jones' Locker, Shadow of the Colossus, Lonely Wanderer, and Acid Wash.
-If we put Frumpkin's Sequential Circuits first then all the rest of our covers will pale in comparison but really...

But if we just put all the songs together, I think it'll be a bit too long to digest all at once

We have the lyrics to Acid Wash and the chords to Lonely Wanderer (or vice versa), right? Would anyone be up for just doing a blind cover for each song using what Sonic has given us on photobucket? I think that could be really cool.

Do we have lyrics for lonely wanderer? any at all?

i think we have lyrics for both

if someone could link me to where they are id be down to interpret my own version.

Yeah I'd totally give it a shot too!

lyrics and chords can be found on sonic's photobucket: http://s1377.photobucket.com/user/sonic ... t=3&page=1

I recorded a lounge version of BBCM Instrumental is done, just gotta add vocals, then I'll post it here. It's just for fun, we don't have to put it on the album since someone else was already recording a cover of it before me

I probably said it before but I think everyone should just post whatever they make once it is finished(don't want people to rush) so we can get all the tracks together before the album releases or freebirds.

I'm about half way done with principe real!

Alright here's my lounge version of Butcher Baker Candlestick Maker! I had fun with it and tried to make it as schmaltzy as possible

owns

awesome!!!!

i couldn't help but smile all through your cover, victor! so great!

holy shit victor that was amazing.

Thanks guys! All due credit to PB for writing a great song.

It's kinda cool how the BBCM chords and melody very easily lend themselves to a jazz/lounge style. I added in a few chords here and there but otherwise it's all just following the original

let's set a due date for the tracks left unfinished and then go with what we have. we already have a ton of tracks anyways!

then send it to boom and he can master &maybe hook us up with some artwork!

Seeing as how Boys Latin is still a work in progress would anyone mind of I gave a shot at my own version?

No please do! We could always use more covers, in case people don't end up finishing their covers (which happens often)

had some time to work on crosswords during my shift tonight and made some pretty substantial changes, didn't bring my mic so recording new non-laptop vocals is a no-go but thankfully i can get this done for y'all this week, here's another preview!

Can anyone confirm the correct chords for Boys Latin? Someone posted some images but I couldn't find the chords in there.

My version currently goes F# for the verse, B, E, F#, C# for the hook. If the official version is different I can easily fix mine.

^sounds right to me, will double check next time I'm at home with a keyboard

Going to get my cover of BL done this week! Just gotta redo my vocals and add some samples.

ready to finish principe but lyrical collective is saying the subscription is expired? tried to make an account but still can't view the lyrics. What is sonic's photobucket account? The lyrics are there too right?

lyrics and chords can be found on sonic's photobucket: http://s1377.photobucket.com/user/sonic ... t=3&page=1

yea thanks dud I just couldn't remember where to find it/laziness.

should have this up in a few hours hopefully! Unless om_thanks forgets that he is working for me today..

Here's my (work in progress) instrumental track for Boys Latin. Just some adjusting of effects, volume and adding vocals left to go. Should be done around the middle of this week.

I saw Panda Bear perform this song live in Toronto and at the time it was by far my favourite. Loved working on it thus far.
