Kay!
« on: March 07, 2011, 03:12:12 PM »
I put this together recently.  It's based on an old prank call that I'm too lazy to find the link to right now.  It's not finished.  The levels are probably terrible on speakers that aren't mine.

I'm thinking about removing the piano from the end and sticking it into the song somewhere, but r0xy claims she likes it at the end so I dunno.  I'm pretty sure you can hear me coughing in one part.  I suck at the drums, especially when I'm playing them on a midi keyboard.  I should go "rent" a midi drum set from Best Buy and see if it gets any better.  I may have overdone it on the cymbal crashes.

You're not allowed to reply to this post without telling me something you completely hate about the song so I can fix it.

The piano riff is a blatant rip off of something but I can't for the life of me think of what it is.

I didn't purposely steal it, but I'm positive it's been used a bazillion times. 

Jenn said it was a little too slow, so I sped it up (after first being a smartass about it), which should make it a little easier to hide all the mistakes.  The new version will have all-new volume issues.

There were certain parts where I felt there should of been a synthesizer flaring up after a few lines. I'll listen to it again and tell you where it should be. Because synthesizers make everything better.

Here's the latest version - I think it's finished.

ApprenticePhreak, I know what you meant about it needing something in those empty spots.  I didn't think a synthesizer was right for this mostly acoustic song.  I did a weird, quiet voice echo thing in those spots, but I'm not sure that works either.  I added a few more phone call clips into the song too.

I'm still open to suggestions on this.
