hey all
I made this song on Ableton. I also used Tweakbench plug-ins. Rosie mentioned the glitch plug-in which I never used before so I decided to over use it. I have become an abuser of compressors as you can probably tell.

A lady told me the other day that she drinks her own pee so that is kind of the inspiration of the song.

love,

Buy U a Hot Drank

December 2008 by

I was at Tim Hortons getting a coffee and donut and they were playing "Hot" by Avril Lavigne (I know, right? - so Canadian). While listening to it, I noticed it shared some musical characteristics with T-Pain's "Buy U a Drank," which was also getting a lot of radio play at the time (winter-spring '08). I stuck them together and they just worked (I used Acid Pro 4.0 - I didn't have Ableton yet when I started it). The songs practically mashed up themselves, with the exception that the keys are three half steps apart, so I had to do some pitch-shifting. Since bringing T-Pain down worked better than bringing Avril up, it's sort of got a chopped and screwed thing happening. Lyrics-wise, I tried to create a romance between Avril and T-Pain/Yung Joc. That kind of thing can be a really fun part of mashups. 
I hope you all enjoy.

Well, it's some interesting sounds, and some ear piercing synths. I tried to take the edge off of it, but it only sorta worked.  Careful if you listen with headphones. Slowly working towards something better. I'll get there sooner or later.

sequenced drums with some jamming. I'm playing bass and two guitars. I'll probably use this in the game too. It's also meant to be looped.

I am sorry that I am so late! I got caught up all day spraying caulk on magazines. Literally, though. NO JOKE. But I think it was my day today (the 17th) so here is a song for you all:
