A JA Christmas

Hey guys! What do you think of having JA musicians throwing down some xmas tracks and then having JA Radio play it for us all to enjoy? Each person will pick a classic xmas song to do in their own rendition and then submit it to me to be broadcasted. Then on one day (Christmas) we'll broadcast all day JA members giving their best! Just an idea right now but we'll have to move fast if we want to do this!

Deadline is going to be December 22st!

The JA Xmas Currently Features
Casual - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
Janus - The Night Before Christmas
Tido and the Teamspeak Mutts - Christmas Is Going To The Dogs
Virtue/Eica/Kensei - Merry Christmas Everyone
Smiley - ?
Tido - Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer
Kenyon - Where Are You, Christmas?

I appreciate that. I understand not everyone can be as trendy as me when it comes to things like fashion, technology, slang, and new holiday dates. The important part is you guys are trying your best. And perhaps with time and effort, you too can be sexy like the Silkmonkey! :P

extend it?! to what?! xmas eve is the 23rd. No one will be listening then because of RL. If it's going to broadcast it can't be later than the 22nd. And I'll need some time to throw it all together. I'm sorry but the 21st is as far back as we can go. Do your best.

Hey Tido, it's a bit too late for me to record anything new, but we did a version of "Walking in the air" (from the 'snowman' animation) with our band (FINNISH). I could send that to you! It's a good version, I play the lead guitar!

I suppose, but whilst the drumming on the song is really simple, I'm just not in a position to spend hours and hours trying to get this to work perfectly :( I'm going to hopefully mask some of the problems with Eica's bass when I mix it. Gonna have one more go at drumming it tomorrow :)

if his various drums were tracked out individually you could align them to the beat.

That's why I use Audacity :P :D

On a side note, I've just done the drum track for our song and seriously, Slade cannot keep beat - its terrible. The drums range in verse 2 by as much as half a beat! So I've just ignored them (apart from in important places), and kept up with my metronome. Remind me never, EVER, to drum Slade EVER again.

Wow, I didn't realize Audacity could do all this. I thought it was a single track wav editor. That's not the case. As a lightweight multi-track mixer/editor it does a pretty decent job, and you can't argue with the price!

Check it out:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net
Learn how to use it and you could produce some pretty nifty things!

piece of fruitcake, Janus! All you gotta do is build up a fire, get a cup of spiked eggnog, light a few candles, put on your st.nick cap, and record a lively reading on the 'ol 'puter. Put some Janus into it!

And if DJ Sith doesn't add his part I'm going to paypal the JA some coal.
