I’m a little anxious if I have enough time to submit something worthwhile since I work on my summer job. I only have week days and only until 26th of May to deliver. After that I’m completely gone.
Let’s hope working with deadline works on my benefit
Just an idea, don’t know yet if it’s worth it. I was checking you tube if the song had been covered somewhat along the lines I have in mind. Not really so far it seems. But I came up with this link which might give you an idea, or at least a smile…
I want to enter. Since the deadline is still pretty far away I should have time. Just been so busy moving house! At least my studio is pretty much set up now. The other day though I sat down with my guitar, not knowing the chords or any lyrics except “you give me fever” I came up with a little something that I’ll probably use as the basis of the song. Having no idea what you’re doing is a good way to come up with something different, haha.
I have an cool idea for a cover version of it already in my head.
The style and mood sre akready decided and i have some beats and rythem ideas.
Vocals too i think i know what type of genre i’m going to strive for.
Just need to set my pc up soon and borrow a mic! Oh the shame…
I’ve got a slow and a fast version which my fellow Interstellar Fur Traders @ingolee and @Stan_Halen may want to collab on one. I put them on our drive in a new Fever Cover folder if you want to listen. Those are mighty sweet prizes!
I’d say it has a Psychedelic Furs/Nick Cave vibe from a distance.
As some of you have already noticed I’ve put my “Funky Fever” up for bashing. Getting good reviews too! Maybe I could use one of you pro’s to bash me or I might just get lazy and think I can win this thing without too much work .
No but seriously, there’s a lot to be improved on the mix, and any advice would be appreciated!
Cheers Evert
You know, I am really glad there was so much time given to do this contest. I’ve made a ton of progress with my guitar playing over the last month or so by working on an arrangement for this song. It’s really had time to develop, in between all the other stuff I have going on. I know I’m not on here much lately, but I just wanted to say that. And I think I’ll be able to get back in the swing of things soon enough. I miss you guys!
I think I might even do a tutorial video for my guitar part when I’m done. I’ve learned a lot, and I think that some of the parts I came up with are really fun to play, not to mention quite challenging. Like a tongue twister for your fingers, haha.
