Shredcow's Country Wannabe Jam (Blackstone content)

[ShredCow]

Hey guys,
while doing up the Docu-thread on songwriting, I took some time off to just relax and jam to something weird.

Country.

Ah well. Its NOT me, and i don't play country well at all. In anycase, do take a listen and have a giggle or two at the clumsy Shredcow mulling thru a country track.

Oh yeah.. about the Blackstone, its on from when the lead kicks in till... 1:58 where the skreddy kicks in.. the Bstone is on all the way though, i alternate between the orange and red channels, boosting the skreddy. and i mull a little harder.

i find it just sounds rather off... not ur usual stuff, but u're playing style is not suited to country...
unique twist to country though...

 

[ShredCow]

First part, the rhythm background sounded a bit country like. After the drums fully came in, it sounded more pop. The lead playing is good technically, but doesn't sound country. If you played a bit more bluesy and maybe a bit more finger picking, probably will sound like it. Otherwise, the song sounded more pop. But it is a nice tune nonetheless.

kinda agree.. i dun heard e country feel lehz..quite relax piece of music IMO..close 2 wad joe satriani wld normally do..den last part is erm.. dun reali like e tone.. when it's in single note thing it sounds very thin to me but when its in triad it does sound rich.(i oso dunno y la)

 

[ShredCow]

hehe... i can't image me twanging it out! Finger picking, bluesy licks... ugh... can't!

But yeah. Tis all in jest i guess.

For the tone, it sounds "rich in triads" prob because there isn't too much mids to muddy up the notes. I take it that "rich in traids" = clarity/defination. For the single notes, its a give or take, add mids to sound fat and solid, typical good tone, but compromise on clarity/defination when playing triads/doublestops/chords... so i choose the clarity path. :wink:

 

[eadricng]

yeh, i think it's supposed to be country and personally thought it'll be nice to have a nice twang in the playin'....tele? strat? *shrugz*

btw, why can't you imagine yourself doin' it dan?


overall - normal i guess

 

[ShredCow]

its not me i guess? I can't imagine myself twanging it out with a strat or tele. Heh.

yeah man! it is very normal stuff. Maybe abnormal for me. Heh. Very simple pentatonics and major scales... kind of... boring... :roll:

 

[ChanMin]

checked it out... its very shredcow... and really not country at all ... but interesting to listen to as always.

 

[ShredCow]

if you just listen to the track, and not listen out for country tunes, it is actually a pretty groovy track!
