Normally I'd agree with this statement. However, this one doesn't sound like it's processed much at all. I recreated it using just a filtered square wave, pitch and filter envelopes. The first one is Sytrus. Just for fun the second one uses the ol'school DreamStation.

Wow! Really good! Yes, I agree with you completely...it didn't sound too complicated to me.

And whoever thinks Gwen Stefani makes her own beats is incorrect. Dr. Dre, The Neptunes, and Andre 3000 are to thank.

To me it sounds like an 808, pitched down, going through some lo fi effect or something..

By the way, I really like this song..

I was just kidding around there, but seriously, I found the swept drum sound to be the most interesting thing in the piece.

There's just no way to predict personal taste. (I include my own in that. I'm really not picking on anyone.)

take care,
McLilith

Uh... I posted the whole .flp project. Can you pick the preset from there?

Hah.. of course I can.. for some reason my mind read "project 5" and not Fl Studio 5 .. HAHAHAHA..
Yeah man. Sweet. I'll download the flp. I wasn't being lazy!

Hi McLilith..

I find this piece really interesting. I am not talking about the lyrics, but the music. Very original me thinks. Very percussive. I like the use of the acoustic guitar, and the brass is sweet. I am not a no doubt fan ( I do like "Hey baby" though) nor am I a Gwen fan, but I have this particular song on my playlist. I also have 1 Britney Spears song ( Toxic )and 1 Justin Timberlake song (can't remember the title ). If I like it I like it..

These days I am more into Zero 7, Amon Tobin, and Air though

B A
Bananna

B A N

N A!

In the song she says B A N A N A S

Hehehe.. actually I could live with an instrumental only version but still with the "oooooouuuuhhhsss" on it..

On another note.. what's up with U2's "uno,dos,tres,catorze...". One, two, three, fourteen?

What is the deal with Toxic? This my sh** too.

When they had a guilty pleasures song conversation on here, that seemed to be the number one. I think there's a difference between Gwen Stefani and Britney though...Gwen got famous by playing shows with her band...learning the ins and outs of all sides of music. Britney got famous on the Mickey Mouse Club.

Good call on Air. Some of the best music of these days.

Anyone know how to make the noise in this Gwen Stefani song?
