okay, so this isn't a great file...we did record it direct off our mixer, so it should have been good, but this was the first take and the guitar is way low in the mix. we did a second take later but i accidentally erased that one. this one also features a few mistakes by our singer...although he sings it pretty well
anyway, in order to make up for the guitar being so low, i used my Korg PXR4 recorder FX to add some distortion to my miked acoustic guitar ...(wtf!!?!?!? omg) and played the rhythm part over it. the solos are there from our guitarist, but they're kinda hard to hear. but, seeing as how i added a little organ part and you could hear it and not the guitar, something needed to be done because the file sounded like trash. it now sounds half-way decent.
that being said, here's the file: Elysium - I Believe in a Thing Called Love (cover) (http://portfolio.iu.edu/jhpalmer/Elysium_-_I_Believe_in_a_Thing_Called_Love_(xtra_gtr).mp3)
please keep in mind it's a rough, first take and we were just recording for fun, but i thought it'd be cool to post here. hope you like!
