Hi,
I used File 1.
The song is about a guy, who doesn't want to be stoned.
I sit on the floor - the ashtray in my hands
hoping that this paranoia feeling ends
I won't answer the telephone - that would be way too tough
my heart is beating fast - it was a deadly puff
wait till the peak is over
you'll start to relax
everything flows
you will be just like wax...
A different state of mind
As you might hear, english is not my mother tongue. And I've got a cold...
I used :
Cubase, western guitar, e-bass, e-guitar, Ebow, POD, VST zither and a real one, piano soundfont, Stepfilter, Cyanide2, AZR3 organ, bird sounds...
Nils

Here we go again another offering from yours truly
http://www.ndzeit.org/kvr/guests/04_07_ ... e_road.mp3
I've been travelling the road for far too long
carrying my ole guitar and a hertful of songs
I've been wandering the highways far and wide
I need to settle down with someone at my side
On the road is the only life I've ever known
now I need someplace just to call my home
I've been on the road so very long
time to put some roots down find somewhere to belong
Need to find a girl who'll share with me
my heart my life my home
someone to love and cherish and call my own
Need to find a girl who'll share with me
my heart my life my home
someone to love and cherish and call my own
Hope my server is working??
Many Guitar
Wusik Station
Magix Music Studio 12
+ a bit of live Guitar

Musical Instrument Digital Interface
http://www.slartimusic.com/music/0704_s ... t_MIDI.mp3
As usual, not a lot of time. This was done, essentially in one four hour block last night, and another hour this morning to tidy it up.
File 4 was the basis. Thanks to those who contributed snippets to this file.
Enjoy.
Lyrics:
Fingers and thumbs turned into zeros and ones
Through my Musical Instrument Digital Interface
Got to know my hex when I'm sending my sysex
Through my Musical Instrument Digital Interface
All the bits and bytes are flowing through the pipes
To my Musical Instrument Digital Interface
Got to tweak the beats to make them sound real neat
Through my Musical Instrument Digital Interface
Why has my music got no soul?
Is it because I want complete control?
Gear used:
Cubase SX3
Firebird
Massive
Embracer
Kontakt
Abstrakt Bass
Microtonic
Pro-53
Camel Phat
Doubler
Kjaerhus GEQ7
Ozone
Kjaerhus MPL-1

...From File 4
...Left stuff, added stuff, removed stuff, changed stuff, stuffed stuffing in my stuff hole, while fueled on cheesecake and coffee
Clown College
Lyrics
I'm not tryin to change you.
just like to re-arrange you.
Don't really like the strange you.
It's high time you came to.
The circus came to your town.
And you'd like it to stay around
because you are it's main clown
and all my worry is bringing you down.
See where you're going but I just can't change it.
You won't believe me when I say you're deranged, yet,
you know there's danger when you're stranger than strange gets.
and it drives me crazy that I just ca-ca-can't ch-ch-change it!
I hope you like those big shoes.
and how that nose it fits you.
Wearing your red hair-doo.
Gag it up, we'll laugh at you.

I got in before the close this time - but its me singing - sorry!
Reality TV
Seems file 4 is popular right now - that's what I used too.
Not a jot of MIDI was changed or added (including drums). All I added was a few guitar strum samples free from CM, and the vocals.
Tracktion 1
Sfz
Plugsound free
DK+
Some Classic filters
There was a candlestick, lying by a pool of blood
The door was locked and there was no key
I told my wife that I think I know who murdered him
That's what I want to see - on TV
I don't want to see people bickering
I don't want to see the bourgeoisie
I want heroes and lovers and criminals
I don't want to see Reality TV
Where are the Hollywood old time musicals
He sings his heart out in a restaurant
She dances down on a New York boulevard
What more TV could you ever want?
I don't want to see the racist element
I don't want to see he has she
I just want to see something fictional
I want something that's not like me - on TV
There must be more than this
I don't want to see bullies and egotists
I don't want them to disagree
I've got reality here in the real world
I don't want to see Reality TV

All right. File #3.
From the soundtrack of General Nuisance's Last Stand. This is the dream sequence. (Though this vocal version only appears during the closing credits.)
lyrics:
The old general is dreaming again
Of a beer at the PX at twilight
The corpse of a corporal playing the upright
And the faces are all shades of blue
His grandmother's tending the bar
With her teeth in a glass on a barstool
There's the guys from his gym class in high school
And the gypsy girl dances through
...man, this hedgehog suit itches
