Debut single The La La Lies
« on: June 01, 2012, 03:51:39 AM »
Today's the day. Our debut single is out and it's called Memory Lane. It's digital only, on Spotify and iTunes, but our album will be out in September on CD and vinyl! Hope you like it:)

Congrats Chris!

Which bass did you use ?
Were there any amps involved or is it a Sansamp?

I used my SG reissue for most of the recordings. One track has a Dano reissue, one a '50s P and this one a Warwick Pro Series Star Bass. All basses were DI'd by an Avalon and another DI (forgot which one) and reamped throug an all-tube Ashdown Little Bastard with a 2x12, SM57 and the egg-shaped AKG.

Thanks, on the whole CD we used quite a lot of space for the guitars, which is okay to me. Personally I like songs with one or two guitars and lots of bass, but of course I'm not the one to decide on my own;) Other songs will have more melodic parts. This is just following the guitar and rocking. Always nice to do live:)

Played a bit slower that would make a nice Noel Gallagher riff!  :mrgreen: Nicely done in its youthful raucousness.
