Are these "come on over to the barbecue and hoedown" rednecks, or are they more of the "send these damned foreigners back where they came from" style rednecks?

I bought a guitar and have been playing since the end of the year. Most of my music is back in the Ventures era, but I have been broadening my music so I may play for the public again. I don't have a lot of money so when I heard of your offer it sounded to good to be true. I certainly can use that groove box. I plan on using that with a keyboard. If by a slim chance were picked to get your grove box I can assure you that it will never be sold. I will put it to a very good use. Thanks for your time. zeke Zeke, Craig is giving away software.

Are these "come on over to the barbecue and hoedown" rednecks, or are they more of the "send these damned foreigners back where they came from" style rednecks? Please school me on the subtleties of redneckhood.<<< Really in none of the ways mentioned above. Personally I may be kind of a redneck in a "send these modern day values back where they came from" way but in all reality I think the name "Rednecks Bustin Loose" has little to do with the music. Rednecks Bustin Loose has served mainly as a pen name. As I started back into playing and writing and learning all I could to learn recording I didn't have a clue where I wanted to head with it. I mainly put together this instrumental stuff to have a venue to work out the learning curve. I have a closetful of country songs, some traditional, some crossing over to rock and pop, I still believe in but I already hade put what seems like a life time into them. Thus, I've been reluctant about reworking them till I had better sense of and a more positive confidence in what I think I can accomplish here sonically. The last few mixes have left me feeling ready so I've began that process. The stuff I've got in the oven now might have fit under the redneck title but I'm systematically getting rid of the Redneck sites and the new stuff will start being under my real name. ------------------ William F.

Tedster Posted March 24, 2001 Share Posted March 24, 2001 >>Tedster, you need to work a little harder, here. I'm not feelin' the LOVE for my bass. Actually, that post wasn't working on love, it was trying to appeal to your funnybone. (SOB, GASP...SWOON)... One of those lines is correct though. The third one, I believe. The one where he's using my P-bass copy (albeit not a bad one) 'cause all of his bills are eating his lunch. Still owes money on a car that crapped out. Daughter heading to college...that kind of thing. We're a gigging band. I mean, all in all, there's probably no reason he shouldn't be able to come up with a bass on his own, but times are tough. We're a fun little band...I wish those sites that had our mp3s hadn't crapped out. I'll check 'em again. "Cisco Kid, was a friend of mine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dansouth Posted March 29, 2001 Author Share Posted March 29, 2001 LISTENING FEEDBACK I haven't gotten to everyone's MP3's yet, but here's a synopsis of what I've listened to thus far. By the way, I'm getting jealous, because you're all so talented - NO GEAR FOR YOU! Just kidding (about the gear, not the talent). John Palumbo - VERY impressive, my friend! Excellent playing on all instruments, and your voice is to die for. Keep it up. You have a bright future ahead. Kahn - Beautiful chorus guitar sounds. Your music reminds me of a cross between Floyd, fusion, and FM jazz. Dr. Destructo - Great Satriani-style guitar sound. I think your mixes could be a little brighter, but I'm impressed with the playing and the material. Mr. Turner - Excellent, clean-sounding recordings. Beautiful guitars, including steel. Did you play everything yourself? Tangent - Diverse collection of music, hard as Helmut to soft as Alan Parsons Project. Bombastique (for Artemis) - Her MP3's sound very professional, and her voice is SO rich. I would still like to hear from her. Greg Youngman - Very creative tune. I'm impressed by the effort. Eleven Shadows - you definitely have the ambient thing down. Thanks to all, I'll try to catch the rest of you in the next week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 30, 2001 Share Posted March 30, 2001 >>>Mr. Turner - Excellent, clean-sounding recordings. Beautiful guitars, including steel. Did you play everything yourself?>>> Thanks. I generally program/sequence a basic rythm track, bass, drums and an acooustic guitar track if I'm using one and render them using Audio Compositor. The guitars are real and the rest is pretty much real time sample based performances. The steel parts are synthetic, a combination of real time performances and digital audio trickery. >>>Excellent, clean-sounding recordings<<< That perception is probably much more important to me than winning the bass http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/wink.gif Thanks again ------------------ William F.

musiccatt.com Posted March 30, 2001 Share Posted March 30, 2001 Before I vacate the premises, I had to post to this one: What are you holding out in front of people??? Exhibitionist. Like any response to an offer for aid, live aid, or any other crapola that comes down the pike: Why didn't you give it away anonymously, and personally? Because there's no 'glory' in that. Stuff it. Stop making beggars of talented people. This was particularly demeaning and evil idea, to do it in public is proof of the intent. Do the blind see this?

Lo! Behold the brazen braying jackass, who boasts of a rapier wit! His butter-knife brains suffice only to smear his own words with shit. Props to you dansouth- 'glory'? who ever said or implied anything about that? Just being neighborly, looks like to me. I inquired about shipping costs- not so low- so I'll withdraw my entry for my friend. Tax returns came, so he's getting a used unit cheap anyway, but thanks and good luck in the "not-a-contest" all you fine folks. -CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Flier Posted March 31, 2001 Share Posted March 31, 2001 Why didn't you give it away anonymously, and personally? Because there's no 'glory' in that. Oooh!!! Gosh, sometimes I like to do nice things for people... and I actually have a selfish ulterior motive! Namely that I would like to be (gasp!) APPRECIATED for it just a little bit! I mean, musicians NEVER would become musicians because they actually wanted, like, an AUDIENCE or anything! They would rather be "morally pure" and just play their music anonymously in their basements and would think it terribly selfish and uncouth to expect anyone to APPLAUD. Much less give away gear and not want to experience a little bit of pleasure when people say "Hey thanks Dan! You da man!" Damn, what a price Dan expects people to pay! We're all so evil to want a little appreciation for doing something good! --Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe more like your monitoring environment. Try comparing a mix to a CD that sounds good. Switch back and forth between the CD and your mix and see if you can approximate that sound. This approach should work fairly well in any room with just about any monitors. I have an old BBE unit that adds some "sparkle" to mixes. Maybe I've just found a new home for it.

sumstaticyahoo.com Posted April 1, 2001 Share Posted April 1, 2001 well the reason i think i am a worthy receiver of your generous donation is that i recently had to give away my equipment (only a trinity and MPC)as calateral for $1500 to pay a downpayment on a used car so i can get to my pathetic job. i still am paying off the loan and have no equipment. I work with dementia patients at a hospital(as u probably know it doesnt pay well) and when i get home i usually play music to relax.now i have no equipment and when i get home i have nothing to take my mind off of the delirious babble i heard for the last 12 hours.PLEASE help me! 1) the carvin bass-i would love because of the fact that i play instruments but due to the fact i foolishly traded my guitars and bass for the keyboard i have no "live" feeling in my tracks. really, check it out www.mp3.com/sumstatic 2) the quadraverb- i have never had any effects.......ever...... it would be a completely mind boggling to even have the option. 3)the mc-505- i need one of these! i played with one at guitar center but did not have any money at the time. ( i never do) 4)the roland and emu-i am so sick of the trinitys sounds that i am having trouble getting the incentive to go to work with the 12 hours of babble everyday to get it back this is true i need something to make music on or i will go insane !!!PLEASE consider me.

dansouth Posted April 3, 2001 Author Share Posted April 3, 2001 Okay, just to make it official, the giveaway is now closed to new entries. I haven't made any decisions yet as to who gets what, because I have listened to about 60% of the material that you've submitted, and I want to listen to that stuff AGAIN at least one more time. I have a list of everyone and what they asked for, but I'm too tired to type it up now, because I'm coming off a bout with the flu. Now we can enter phase two of the project. I should be announcing winners within the next two weeks, or so, but I actually have some more stuff to give away, and I'll make these items available to those of you who don't win one of the original five items. IF YOU HAVE NOT ENTERED BY NOW YOU ARE NOT ELEGIBLE. Here's some of the other stuff that I have up for grabs. - an original nord lead synth (bright red, nifty controllers) - an original Quadraverb (not a Q2) - a pair of Rane five-band parametric EQ's - a Digitech VTP-1 two channel tube mic preamp - a Roland SRV-330 reverb - a Lexicon LXP-1 half-rack reverb unit - an Alesis micro compressor (sounds good on bass and vocals) - an Alesis microverb - an Alesis microgate - a ProCo patch bay (non-balanced) It's possible that there may be one or two more items, but that's all I can think of at the moment. If you would rather have one of these items than the one you opted for originally, let me know soon so that I may reorganize my list. Again, let me stress that I'm not accepting any new entries. This stuff is only for folks who have already entered. There shouldn't be too many of you who walk away empty handed. All I ask is that you reimburse me for the shipping expenses. Max, the MC-505 is wired for 110 V (western hemisphere) A/C. Would that pose a problem for you? Wormhole and Dr. Destructo have already received something or will be soon, so they're off the list. Nika broke the bandwidth rule while trying to flush a pheasant out of the brush, and I think he got his pheasant, so he's not in the running, either. The gentleman who wanted something for his friend in Mexico has withdrawn. The rest of the entrants are still eligible. Please be patient with me, and I'll try to have this all decided within the next couple of weeks. It may take me a little longer to get everything shipped depending on how quickly I can find boxes for everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Cameron, props to ya...it really does sound like something Ian Anderson would come up with. I could picture hearing it sung Ian-style with the classic flute lines weaving in and out. Speaking of which, I stumbled across Ian Anderson's website a bit ago. It's worth seeking out. He's got a new project with some clips on the website, some good Tull-esque tunes. The site's worth seeking out...and Mr. Anderson does a good bit of yapping about various subjects, even a bit for parents seeking to purchase a good flute for their schoolkids. Can't remember the link, but if I find it again I'll post it. "Cisco Kid, was a friend of mine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
