New song, old style

46746_47963e
The 60s band I’m in (‘the Revolvers)’ is doing a national radio-morningshow this week. The station is playing only 60s record this week, so we feel right at home.
We do a little quiz, fiddle around during the broadcast, and we top it off by doing a 60s version of a modern song every day. It’s like doing a backwards cover if that makes any sense.

The first one we did today was Gabriella Cilmi’s ‘Sweet about me’
youtube original is here

And here is the ‘Revolvers’ version:
Sweet about me – the Revolvers 1:53

Hell just froze over

Happy New Year!
With this Tune I declare 2009 the year of the Schnauzer. It’s a bit hard describe this one; is it an original or a remix? 90% of what you hear is played in the last month. The rest is from a hard to find German 60s album. For some reason I keep going back to using found material, although it is way more work than recording an original from scratch. Note to self: do an original next week.

Vocals: Katja Hollander

New Schnauzer: Feeling Groovy

The ever expanding Schnauzer Radio Orchestra is extremely proud to present the next tune before world domination. Roughly forty years after the summer of love you are presented with this.
A production time of 6 months and a few guest appearances over the mail made this song. The longer this was sitting on my hard drive the bigger it got. Around last May I already announced this tune, and 4 weeks later I still wasn’t satisfied with the result. Luckily I was able to find a few fellow musicians who where also feeling groovy. That took this thing into a whole different direction than I expected, but made it infinitely better.  A song is never finished until it is pressed to vinyl so this will go down as the web 2.0 mix.

-edit: all tracks were submitted through the mail

My eternal thanks go to these guys:
Drums: Phil Martin
Bass: Ton vd Kolk (AIFF)
Fuzz and wah wah guitar: Marco Raaphorst
Additional guitars: Eric v.Dijsseldonk

Feeling Groovy – 4:10
