      This one was already prepared last week by Beard, but I’ve been busy and unable to release it. Straightforward conversion, no extra bells and whistles, so harmonies and Keys, but they will be added later
      Weekend Of 10/28: Frank Zappa – Sofa No. 2
      s3tbiike2aukkh46g.jpg
      Conversion / Reductions: beard216
      Audio Source Lineage: 1975 Analog Master -> 2012 Remastered UMe CD -> EAC v0.99 -> 256kbps MP3 -> Audacity -> .OGG
      Preview Notes: Sofa was originally the second portion of the Sofa Suite, or Divan; a prelude to Billy The Mountain introduced in November 1971. A mockup of German creation operas, it was only played for a few short shows leading up to the Montreux fire.
      Additional Notes: GLORIOUS GERMAN VOCALS ABOUND. Aided with Zappa’s commentary during these shows, the Sofa Suite was in essence a mockup of German creation operas, the likes of Wagner and Handel, only properly imagined in the studio version. The few versions of the story usually involved a maroon sofa floating the void of space, nothing else but itself, God appearing and calling upon some flooring unto the sofa, summoning his short girl and Squat the Magic Pig, God filming the short girl and Squat performing lewd acts as part of a home video, and God sending the tape off for editing. Lastly, God proceeds to take a nap on the Sofa, and the story of Billy The Mountain begins.
      No Keys or Harmonies here yet, but they will be done later
      ENJOY!

        Here’s two more tracks from the round of Genesis me and AJFOne are doing in celebration. Both of these were started almost a a year ago but finally finished them recently. The tempo maps are old enough that they don’t represent my current/upcoming crop, but it’ll do.

        Weekend Of 10/19: Genesis Celebration Pack Part 2, Genesis – Deep In The Motherlode & All In A Mouse’s Night

        Additional Notes: A heavy synth-laden song, this is another “fantastical story” in reverence to their older pieces, like Epping Forest and Hogweed. It tells a story of a mouse’s night adventures from different points of view, only played live during the 1977 tour.

        Additional Notes: Deep In The Motherlode describes the United States gold rush of the mid-1800s and emulates the journey westward, including the famous phrase “Go West, young man”. It was a limited release single and used to open their concerts in 1980.

        There’ll be more Genesis to come. ENJOY!

            Whipping out another Kansas song for you guys. Not a single, but a really good track off of one of their best works!

             

             

            Weekend of 12/16: Kansas – The Wall

            Audio Source Lineage: 1976 Analog Master -> 1976 US Vinyl -> ION Profile LP Converter -> Audacity -> Click/Noise Removal -> 256kbps .MP3 -> Audacity -> Detailed Click Removal -> .OGG
            Preview Notes: Even though it was not released as a single, The Wall has been frequently played at Kansas concerts, sometimes alone or in a medley. It metaphorically discusses overcoming difficulties in life, a sort-of continuation of Carry On Wayward Son.
            Additional Notes: Played at concert I went to during the 40th Anniversary Tour, Summer 2013. Also released as part of a medley with Mysteries And Mayhem and Lamplight Symphony on Two For The Show.
            No Keys on this for now, but hopefully some time.
            ENJOY! :rock:

            Never heard this song, so I checked it on youtube and this song sounds great!

             

            Thanks nsw1-6 and AJFOne23!

             

            We will enjoy! :rock:

              Hello again! And apologies for the length time between releases. Life goes on, but I’ll be dishing out releases more often in the near future. Sideshow and I (plus a beard) got something special for you today, AN IRON MAIDEN MEGAPACK. Due to logistics, I’m releasing a 3-song pack separately; customs that I did all expert instruments on.
              Weekend Of 7/15/2017 (My birthday, no less):

              Additional Notes: A leftover track from my unreleased contributions to the FoF Forum’s Drum Project 7, patched and full-band. This is one of my personal favorites off of Killers because of the chord sequencing and smooth feel.

              Additional Notes: A full-band upgrade to a chart I did for FoF Forum’s Drum Project 6. This was my first time ever charting Harmonies in Reaper! As most subject matters on Piece Of Mind came from literary works, Sun And Steel originated from an essay about the legendary ronin, Miyamoto Musashi, who wrote the Book of Five Rings and developed the Niten Ichi-ryuu sword-style.

              Additional Notes: A leftover track from my unreleased contributions to the FoF Forum’s Drum Project 7, patched and full-band. This is my first release featuring ProKeys (though not first time charting them), and first time doing multiple harmonies! At this point in the Seventh Son concept, our protagonist has foreseen the local village is meeting disaster. No one believes him, but the village is sure enough destroyed. As our prophet laments, the villagers blame him for the catastrophe.
              The rest will be up in a few for you all to enjoy!
              UP THE IRONS! :rock:

                          Turns out that the ProBass for Sun and Steel wasn’t added during the conversion process. We’ll have a fix up soon.

                              I goofed and forgot to add the Pro Bass chart to “Sun and Steele”. New version on its way.
