New loops, album and pellas are up!
posted: 26 May 2010 11:51 AM
First things first, all of my loops for the 10 year infection party are up. They include all of the loops and vocal bits you hear in Army Of Bums, and then some. You can also download the entire thing from my website in the free loop section if you like. New album from The Incomplete Orchestra (me)! $5, features remixes by Presse, Kruzzial, Karma Cowboy and from Mixgalaxy Records, Cubic, Alexhander Chereshnev, Nuts Gives Power, and Gipa. You can preview the whole album in my Nimbit store: http://www.nimbitmusic.com/theincompleteorchestra New acapellas are up on CCmixter for your mixing needs. These are Creative Commons 3.0 Attribution pellas, so yes, YES commercial songs are okay. Be sure to credit and happy remixing! http://ccmixter.org/people/Coruscate

You can hear it by listening to the Army Of Bums extended mix (now up here) or here on CCmixter. I'll upload it into my 10 year infection account as well. More samples coming for that by the way. Mason jars, tambourines, castanettes... http://ccmixter.org/files/Coruscate/26672

As the soundtrack man for "Terms Of Azimuth" a 2010 movie due to be released soon. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3888404/ I haven't been given a copy of the movie official song list but I do believe some Tapegerm samples (i.e. my random songs) made it into the movie.

Upcoming free loops / vocal offer
posted: 05 May 2010 04:54 AM
Okay so I'm participating in the 10 year infection party, in fact I'm recording my loops tonight. So for one... where do I send them @_@;; I'm going to do my first Tapegerm submission in months with the song I make from my own loops I hope that's not an issue I intend to have the loop pack uploaded to a server and probably linked in the credit material. And for two...

Mic recommendations?
posted: 09 Jan 2010 12:49 PM
So I'm going to give rapping another try, actually wrote another verse the other night and it sounds great. Recording is another issue. I have a ten dollar radio shack mic that just ain't cutting it. So... considering this is bedroom producer hobby here with vocals (instrumentals have to be professional but my vocals are NOT a priority) what kind of mic should I be looking or does anyone have some good recommends?

Good reviews for "Twelve" by D.F., M.A. and T.I.O.
posted: 14 Dec 2009 01:54 AM
Well my fellow Tapegermees, I've only sold 3 three copies so far, with two more sales in a week, but the reviews for the entire album are positive. I've asked the most talkative purchasers to provide specific feedback for David Fuglewicz and Mental Anguish and I'll get it one way or the other. The album was loved start to finish with no hate!

Hey all, lots to talk about. First, music. I am up to four remix songs in total. I'm sure you have all heard of Queen Latifah at some point, I've remixed the song that got her career started, "Princess Of The Posse." I've also uploaded 2 new preview songs "By Doing This He Too Shall Become Dubmortal" and "Czar Bars With Cosmo Filaments." http://www.healthyinsanity.com/2009site/music.html I've also put my mixtape project "Twelve" officially on sale. There's a completed track listing and all. Just over an hour and five minutes of music featuring one track from David Fuglewicz and two from Mental Anguish. Still accepting contributors, so what if I have to change graphics up? http://www.healthyinsanity.com/2009site/musicforsale.html#twelve Now what's this noise about a movie? Well I mentioned that some of the songs I was making here in particular Shtompy, Azimuth, Waiting Behind The 8 Ball were part of some secret movie projects. Well they ain't so secret no more! You can head over to our blog http://gravitywellproductions.blogspot.com/ Or website at http://www.gravitywell.com/ And read up about them as well as see some trailer bits with my music in most of them (My stuff with Tapegerm loops in the Haunted Hotel stuff) The credits have been posted separately of the film as they are all WIP. You can get IMDB Associate Producer credit, screen credit as well as a copy of the movie (Terms OF Azimuth) for yourself for a donation towards its completion! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260513083363

I wanted more up, but I updated my site http://www.healthyinsanity.com with two new songs related to "Stompy" but did not use TG loops, so it's up on my site in the free loops section. Two songs, one zip file.

Stop by my website for 163 free loops from "X Minus One," an OTR piece from the 1930s. SFX, vocal pieces and orchestral stabs. MP3 format, 8 meg download. Part of my challenge to everyone to incporate some of that into a song. You can hear bits I used in my current version of "The Lurker."

ZOMG IT SOUNDS DECENT!
posted: 14 Sep 2009 11:40 PM
Well I did the fifth and "final" take on my Mad Syphony piece, the lyrics not only sound decent, you can hear what I'm saying and it's not all screwy. Not the best, but it's likeable. Mixtape reminder! New or old to Tapegerm, submit a random 12 song and join in. You can print our songs, we'll print yours, and we'll all sell mixtapes and introduce our music to a wider audience than the internet. Ask for details if you missed them. Participation is free.

Free loops are up / Verse 2!
posted: 12 Sep 2009 02:17 AM
My first set of (crappy) free loops are up at http://www.healthyinsaniyt.com. And I've added a second verse and improved vocals on "Mad Symphony." Dunno if I'll add a third verse, but I will practice this one a few times and try to re-record it better. As a reminder you can use my bad vocals! http://ccmixter.org/files/Coruscate/22588

Offering free vocal samples!

Mixtape / Song challenge
posted: 08 Sep 2009 12:18 AM
David Fuglewicz and Mental Anguish are joining the mixtape project. Hop aboard! 6 tracks total for 20 minutes of music. Once we hit 40 that's enough for everyone involved to publish their own CD with 20 minutes of their own music mixed in. And we'd still have room for more people if this becomes popular. Spread the word! Song challenge! Rip apart some sounds or vocals from this old time radio show and have some fun with it! It's public domain, so use at will. Link below.

Mixtape announcement, please join

You ever have a creative rut where you don't hate your old material, but you're tired of it? Yeah, I had a full album worth of my old music and it was good, but I was tired of it. And then...

Alright, time to start jamming in the music y'all!
