Jamming some Sweet Dreams with killerwot

in Drumming3 years ago

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


A few days ago @killerwot posted a video of him playing bass along to Sweet Dreams by The Eurythmics. I thought I would try adding some drums.

Drumeo had the drum tab. It is mostly very simple and some is just the kick drum playing 4/4 beats. The tricky part comes on the middle eight with some fast high hat. That should including opening and closing it, but I could barely keep up as it was. I will have to work more on that.

You may notice a glitch about 20s in. When I played his video on 3speak it kept buffering early on. In the end I just carried on and tried to edit out the gap in Kdenlive. My skills are not up to making that seamless.

I am playing my Roland TD-07 kit on the Synth Drum preset that seemed to fit the song. They may have used a drum machine originally, but that technology was in an early state then. I think they did use a Fairlight sampler which was the state of the art and cost about as much as a house. I remember when the song came out with the striking video.

Rock on!

That's brilliant man! When I read that you added some drums to it, I instantly thought you were doing a drum cover of the song, I didn't think you were going to jam along to my one! That's so cool, what's the next song going to be for the Hive Jam?

I'm up for doing others. We may need to look at sharing files to avoid the buffering issue.

!BEER

Maybe I could transfer a song to you through wetransfer, or even share it through google drive to get around the buffering. Wetransfer is a really handy one to use that I came across about a year ago.

I could do a song with no backtrack so we can build it up that way? I have a good few songs I would feel comfortable playing with no backtrack, or if you have a suggestion for one you like playing I'm open to learning it and doing a version over your video.

I'm away for a lot of this month, but feel free to throw out some suggestion.

Splendidly done. I love to play along with songs that people put up here at times. I have never gotten round to spending time trying to record them right enough!

I couldn't resist trying it. We could get organised and share backing tracks to collaborate on.

Tis a very good idea!

How funny...I just made a vocal warm up exercise out of that song. Blimey you need to be quick to keep up with that hi hat pattern in the middle. You might find it feels easier if you keep the sticks really low, close to the hi hat pad.

I need to work on my technique for the fast stuff. On Drumeo it was rates as an easy song, but that part is definitely not easy. It was just fun to do the collaboration.

It could be cool if you added a vocal to my video. I can provide the file if you want it.

!HUG

That might be fun actually!

Dear @purplesinger, you just got hugged.
I sent 1.0 HUG on behalf of @steevc.

Yeah, I would definitely think the song has a synth feel to it. Even aside from the drum so that fits really well. Nice job!
