The song sounds pretty hot, man. Glad my tab was able to help you out.

About the tab/gp5, my hard drive started acting funny a couple of months ago and began making some ugly noises so I unplugged it until I can afford a new hard drive to back up everything asap. This should happen by the 20th and I'll share what I have and try to finish it... just the distorted guitar for the interlude is all that I haven't worked out yet.

Back to your cover, I think you should try with a 2nd instrument comparable to the real song's 2nd (clean) guitar. I'm not saying to go figure it out or try to recreate it, but at least recreate it in spirit. There is a bit during the interlude with the high pitched vibraphone where you do this. It's not accurate to the original, but that's not the point. It sounds great with the more minor tone and ambient sound of your cover and I'm all over it.

Here's a jumping off point (again =P) if you want. The 2nd (clean) guitar during the verses, the part that echos, I remember I figured to be this:

Code:

(echo.... or just play gradually softer) eb|--2--(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)--|-2--(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-5-4-5-4-5-| Bb|--2--(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)--|-2--(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-(2)-----------| Gb|----------------------------------|----------------------------------| Db|----------------------------------|----------------------------------| Ab|----------------------------------|----------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------|----------------------------------|

Again, I really like the sound of your cover. I never really imagined Tremors slower like this but it fits the sound. Great job!

hey, thanks for the nice words. im gonna try to fit that extra guitar part into the 2nd verse. im still trying to learn how to get the full sound with electronic ambient-ish music.

Really digging it, I wish I could be a little more experimental with my covers, but only having my acoustic with me since I'm 13 hours away form home limits me. Would love to hear some more of your work.

[ryanjk641]

thanks a lot man. i have a few other covers on my youtube account if you follow it from that link. imo they arent as good as tremors but check them out if you want! im gonna do a new song eventually too, its just a matter of finding the right one.

Ryan, I just got my new hard drive yesterday and just now was able to upload the tremors GP5 that you asked for.

By the way, your other youtubes aren't bad musically. Only problem I had was your voice was overloading your mic on some songs and was too quite on others. Keep them coming though. Always an interesting take on good songs.

what settings did you use on autotune? I like that it doesn't sound a fluctuated as T-Pain....

[ryanjk641]

these are the settings i use, hope it helps
