Freethinker Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 The Atomic Cafe Today, we decided to record a cover of Dazed & Confused. I'd be much obliged if you guys would have a listen, and tell us what you think, so that we can work on our flaws. Click Let the good times roll!

pinky Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 F'ing awesome get yourself a nice POWERFUL vocalist and you'll be set, my only complaint is don't use the wah held down like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freethinker Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 thanks for the tip! the reason i used the wah so much is because it gets that really haunting tone that you need for D&C (in my opinion). and when used during the solo's, it cuts better through the mix than without the wah (because of the treble and the little volume boost). But thx! any constructive criticism is more than welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thx! any constructive criticism is more than welcome! That was Jimmy's thinking as well. If you push it forward you get a lot strangled interesting sounds and it cuts through the mix. Rockin it back and forth just gives you a wank wank cheezy kinda sound and that wasn't how Pagey used it anyway -- he stepped on it full throttle, held it down and cut through the nether.
