Title: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on November 08, 2004, 04:24:26 PM Hey you all
I dunno if this is the right place, but I did a Madagascar cover playing the guitars while my friend Daniel Varandas played the keyboards, the bass and drums... We need a singer right now, if anyone wants to record the vocal, send me a pm. ;) I played with Aria Pro II Les Paul + Marshall Jackhammer + Dunlop Cry-baby + Marshall 10W mini-amp. I mixed with Cool Edit Pro and added just a few delay and reverb fx. The drum sample was extracted from the Pittsburgh soundboard bootleg. Thanks to rnx and everybody at TheNewGuns.com for upload the file, hope you'll enjoy it. :peace: http://downloads.thenewguns.com/voodoo/voodoochild-madagascarcover-finalmix-hostedatthenewgunsdotcom.mp3 Title: Re: Madagascar cover Post by: BarryMak on November 08, 2004, 09:07:33 PM I cant sing, or anything

Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: GNR_Green on November 15, 2004, 06:03:11 AM I like this!! Did you have to improvise much? I mean we've only got live versions to go from, so it might be a bit difficult to get it right note for note? I think your solo was a bit different but spot on apart from that. Any Axl soundalikes out there?

Any Axl soundalikes out there? Actually not, there are really good soundboard bootlegs out there. Some almost "hidden" work, like Finck's guitar on Bucket's solo, is clear in some sources, like the Idaho and Tacoma sb boots. My solo was different cause I just jammed. I've made some lines to remember Bucket's solo from Rio, but I made my own version. I thought it would be a lot more fun doing in that way. Yeah, I'm still searching for someone to put the vocal layers. :yes: Anyways, thanks Cowboy Buddha and GNR_Green and all of you. :beer: Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Dont Try Me on November 15, 2004, 01:54:51 PM Hey Voodoochild, I don't want to sound like an ass or anything but there is allot that can be improved on the guitars. Sometimes I get the impression that the sound is a bit off key. And I miss some feeling to it. I don't know how long you've been playing guitar or anything so maybe I'm a bit harse / but I'm as honoust as possible. I'm sure with some more practise you'll get there. I'm just trying to get you further! Keep on the good work!? :)
the songs on your website are pretty cool btw!?nicely done : ok: Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on November 15, 2004, 03:49:56 PM Hey Voodoochild, I don't want to sound like an ass or anything but there is allot that can be improved on the guitars.

But thanks for your comments and for your listening, I'll try to improve as much as I can next time. ;)the songs on your website are pretty cool btw! nicely done : ok: Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: jogizen on November 28, 2004, 12:30:15 PM "The topic or post you requested does not exist" :(
I want to hear it. Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Dont Try Me on November 28, 2004, 06:53:54 PM "The topic or post you requested does not exist" :( I want to hear it. It was there a few days ago, perhaps he will put it up again Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on January 31, 2005, 03:21:50 PM "The topic or post you requested does not exist" :( I want to hear it.

try to find someone to sing on it, it'd be so cool :) Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on January 31, 2005, 07:31:53 PM Repsect guys, that's very well done. : ok: Thank you guys! I'm glad you liked!But why so close to the original? What's the use in a cover when it's that close to the original? Where are YOU in your rendition of this song? I would love to do something like this, but if some guys said the solo would be better if I played closer to the original, could you imagine if people would be able to enjoy some kind of rendition? :'( My intention was to put all the details difficult to hear in the mix, like the Robin's tidbits while Bucket plays the solo, way more audible. Kind of how the studio version might be like. ;) Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Aero on January 31, 2005, 08:58:11 PM downlaoading...
Quote The drum sample was extracted from the Pittsburgh soundboard bootleg. how can you extract a drum from an audio file? what programs do you use? thanks in advance Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on February 01, 2005, 12:18:54 AM But tell us about extracting the drum sample. I'd like to know about the software, too. No magic software. Just took the small part before Buckethead starts the solo. It's like 1 or 2 seconds with only that drum sample (it seems a little different from the begining). I just got this second sample and made a big loop with this for all the solo section. Pretty much just copy and paste. ;)Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: D on February 04, 2005, 05:27:34 AM so thats the actual solo that is goin on behind the quotes?
now i see why axl put the quotes i hope he changed that solo cause i think that solo is kinda bland and nothing memorable about it *not your playing* your playing is great but im a little disappointed in the solo that was written. 10 years i expect at least solo's on par with slash i write better solo's than that : ok: Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on February 04, 2005, 07:17:40 PM so thats the actual solo that is goin on behind the quotes? Thanks for all those nice words - the solo is mine. I said I only took the drums sample, just read above. I wanted to just jam instead of covering Bucket's solo. I'm sorry if you didn't like it - hopefully others did. now i see why axl put the quotes i hope he changed that solo cause i think that solo is kinda bland and nothing memorable about it *not your playing* your playing is great but im a little disappointed in the solo that was written. 10 years i expect at least solo's on par with slash i write better solo's than that : ok: But I heard your songs and its not on par with slash too *not your playing*. ;) Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: D on February 04, 2005, 07:36:44 PM considering its your own its great
if it had been robin or buckets though and they had been workin on that for 4 or 5 years but considering u put it on there it is really good no disrespect intended i thought that was what bucket or robin slaved over for all this time Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on February 04, 2005, 08:24:52 PM considering its your own its great No problema dude, I don't mind you didn't like it. But I just don't like the way you said "i write better solo's than that", that's all. if it had been robin or buckets though and they had been workin on that for 4 or 5 years but considering u put it on there it is really good no disrespect intended i thought that was what bucket or robin slaved over for all this time Anyways, no problem at all. Nevermind... Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: D on February 04, 2005, 08:34:13 PM that was just another way to say Robin and Bucket arent better than slash saying i write solo's better than that, wasnt meant literally!!!!
i was under the impression the entire time that the solo was bucket's or robins Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on February 04, 2005, 08:54:35 PM No problem, really. But the original was Bucket's solo, not Robin. : ok:
Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on February 14, 2005, 03:07:14 AM Hey, check this guy singin' ISE, OMG, my Maddie version and Crash Diet:
http://www.videolog.tv/videolog/vdl_index.php?user=axlroses Actually is very funny, he don't really know the words but he sings anyways. :P I don't know him, but he is the first person to record the vocals for the song.. I wish more people would do that. :( ps: I'm learning the next song, already on 80% of it. Hope you'll enjoy this new one too. : ok: Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: *Izzy* on February 17, 2005, 05:22:08 PM That was cool : ok:
Not to put you under pressure but can you do Chinese Democracy next? :) :smoking: Izzy? :smoking: Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on February 17, 2005, 10:03:19 PM That was cool : ok: Thanks dude...Not to put you under pressure but can you do Chinese Democracy next :) :smoking: Izzy :smoking: I would have real trouble with Chin Dem drums, since we can't use an regular drum kit... Maybe in the future.. ;) Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Ananksunamun on February 18, 2005, 12:38:50 AM ? I like,very nice? ?:D

Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: Voodoochild on March 02, 2005, 12:38:51 PM Thats wicked!!! Guys I would love to hear with some vocals Thanks. There are people on thenewguns.com laying down some vocals, I'll put it here as soon as it's done. : ok:Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: russtcb on March 02, 2005, 12:52:03 PM Hey everyone,
I caught this track through thenewguns.com. I spliced in the middle part w/ the samples and added Robin's backround vocals to it. It ain't perfect, but I think it works well. You can go get it from the link below. http://rapidshare.de/files/746484/Madagascar__New_Test_.mp3.html Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: russtcb on March 03, 2005, 08:01:16 AM I'm battling a slight case of strep throat right now, but I plan on taking a stab at the vocals in the next few days. When I get over this shitty throat problem, I'll probably lay some vox down in Sonar and send it your way Voodoo.

Title: Re: Madagascar cover (AVALIABLE) Post by: WARose on March 17, 2005, 04:38:10 PM considering its your own its great if it had been robin or buckets though and they had been workin on that for 4 or 5 years but considering u put it on there it is really good no disrespect intended i thought that was what bucket or robin slaved over for all this time The point is that Buckethead played in every live version of that song a different solo, so we know nothing about what they`ve been working on in the past years. Same goes for the second part of the chinese democracy solo.
