New Recordings from me

Post by Cpt Matt Sparrow »

Hi everyone

I have been recording a lot this last year. The first nine pieces are from my new album Baroque Recital and there are also some fun ones I want to share (none of them are note for note but my own versions); Rising Force by Yngwie Malmsteen and also Chet Atkins/Jerry Reed's Jerry's breakdown

Okay here are the Baroque ones

J.S Bach

Its about time, that I hear Bach music! :)
I seriously loved the classical pieces, every note has a calming tone which makes you feel at ease as well as a nice echo
Same goes for "Oscar"
I think you just made a new fan, Matt! :P

Hello David

Thank you! and please feel free to add me on myspace and/or facebook. I use both regularly and update on gigs and recordings etc.

On my files I have about 5 versions of every one of the Bach pieces that I have been recording and re-recording since I came back from the US in October 2008! It has been 18 painful months of trying not to get obsessed with BWV 997. I am playing the audio on as many different systems as possible to just give it the once over. I have noticed that my ears like the timbre of music to be dull. I don't mean dull in a negative way, but I hate the brittle-ness in what is often is described as bright sound. I like it to sound low/mid like
on the eq and to sound dark and sonorous. That is what I want in an ideal world but what I get rarely matches that.

I tend to use facebook more :P
No problem, I just hope to be half as good as some of the board members here :)
Yeah, I noticed how some moments in the song sounded a bit dark which suits the piece but do you tend to do that for all your pieces or just the classical ones? I imagine it would be harder if your trying to edit the pieces yourself if your not satisfied with the tone. I'm rather to eager to hear some more classical pieces though ^^

LMAO!! I am glad you said that. I recorded it with my tongue firmly shoved at the side of my gob. It is great fun and at the same time hilarious music :)
