Recording Tips & Tricks / Editing song in the Main Stage Back Tracks section

« on: April 25, 2013, 07:03:08 AM »

Hy Guys,

Hey, I did an upload of a song (Bs Shuffle), but I saw too late that the backing track repeated itself after my playing.
I tried to edit it, but apparently I can't do that?
Anyway, I'll be more carefull in the future.

Greetz,
John

Gear Lust / Delay

« on: April 14, 2013, 03:14:05 AM »

Hey guys, writing this with a gruesome hangover.
Regarding to my last post in 'The Main Stage Tracks': I'm fairly new on the scene, findin' my way around the bluesharp (playin' for 'bout 16 months now, but totaly addicted), Floppy Lips and Beëlzebob suggested I could use some 'delay'.
Please elaborate my friends: what is 'delay' and how to get it.
Have a nice one,

Hangover John.

Recording Tips & Tricks / Backing Track not listed

« on: April 05, 2013, 12:44:30 AM »

Hey guys,

Have I read it right: you can only post songs with a backing track originating from this site?
So I can not post a song on a backing track from let's say Jimmy Reed?

Greetz,

John

Administration & Announcements / Change titlename song.

« on: March 20, 2013, 05:18:49 AM »

Hey guys,

Used a backing from BeelzeBob, but at an attempt to upload, I couldn't choose a titlename for the song. Only a picklist was presented with other names, with no possibility to enter mine.

Anyway: here it is. Been playing for like 14 months now.

Hello Room / First own 12Bar

« on: December 02, 2012, 11:20:57 AM »

Hi guys,

don't know where to post this. I am a bit reluctant, but I gather that this forum is constructive in nature, so I take a leap of faith, and here is a recording I made on this gloomy, rainy and dark sunday-afternoon.
It is a 12 bar backingtrack, that i have (tried

) to fill withe some free associations in de I/IV/V progression.
I practice the bluesharp for 11 months now.
Here it is:

Hello Room / Hi from Belgium

« on: November 15, 2012, 12:53:41 AM »

Hi guys and dolls,

I'm John.

How long have you been playing harmonica?
Been practicin' for 'bout a year now. Started from scratch.

Do you consider yourself a beginner, amateur, or pro?
After one year, and for a lot of time to come, beginner allright.

Do you play any other instruments?
No, tried guitar, played it so much I managed to get a chronic muscle injurie in the left arm

Have you been in any bands?
No.

Of all instruments, why play harmonica?
Don't know, but easy to take along, versatile in the use and playing and generally sounds great.

How do you approach playing harmonica? Do you know music theory or play other instruments?
Started out with internet and a great forum in Holland, take private lessons now for a while. Goin' good.
Know a bit of theory.

What part of the world are you from? What do you do for a living?
I'm a Belgian cop.

Who are your favorite musicians and harmonica players?
The older guys, Sonny Boy Williamson II, Sonny Terry, the "Walters", but Gussow has a mean harp to.

See ya!
John
