Just asking

Hank,

I presume you have ideas about the leadvoice part, could you let us hear what you have in mind?

**Date:** Aug 10, 2009

Hoi Marco,

I have no idea, but surely not as me.

Grinchy had a awesome vocal on 'Short Punksong - Parasites'.

Something like that would be very cool.

Greetz,

Henk

Hey Fellas,

I'd be honored to give vocals a whirl on this song. I'll try and do something in the next few days. Cool music, great lyrics. We'll make it happen.

Thanks for the kind words guy's,

Here is the mix without vocals and a missing Hammond track.

Have fun with it.

Ok folks,

Here is what i worked on this afternoon. The way i recorded this, it sounds like there's room for another verse. The music didn't match the lyrics precisely, so I thought perhaps we could incorporate a solo before the final chorus. Or, maybe someone would like to write another verse.

This isn't my best performance ever. I could probably coarsed to do a little better, or maybe even add harmony if anyone is interested, otherwise I think it's decent enough.

I submitted vocal tracks that are pretty unprocessed as far as compression (I compressed them pretty heavily on my mix), so that whomever is interested can have more control. If you want wavs with or without FX, let me know.

Wow, this is realy, very, very cool!!!

Thanks a lot and let's do some more!

Yes, I left some space for a solo, I'am working on that.

Please can you post the vocal wave's for me so I can finish the song.

Thanks,

Henk

**Date:** Aug 17, 2009

Hi Bas...welcome to v-band

Yeah, this sounds cool...I like it. That guitar comes up huge! It simply adds another dimension, and now that you've done that...it feels odd when its not doing that...lol

Just kidding about that...it sounds good man, all of it. I stronger mix particular in the vocal and synth (that rhythm thing) areas. Like what? lol... I would lower the synth 6db and raise the vocals 6 to 8 db. Just a guess though. Good job on this guys.

**Date:** Sep 8, 2009

Hi Bas,

Welcome to V-Band.
As soon as I get home I will listen to it.
Thanks.

I think that the rythm guitar can also go more into the background. I feel that it is to prominent now.

i really need to redo these vocals. i'll do it by the week's end.

**Date:** Sep 10, 2009

and by the way, i really dig the new guitar part bigblockbuick!

**Date:** Sep 10, 2009

Holy Crap Ginchy can SING....!
Awesome job...!
Please, please, please grab those lyrics in limbo and put 'em to those songs in limbo...!
This is the missing link here....

**Date:** Sep 11, 2009

Hey Folks,

So I redid the vocals, and I'm much happier with them now. I added some harmony. Here is a rough mix... the chorus vocals are a little overcooked and the mp3 sounds a lit sub-standard quality (my sample rate must be messed up...), but you'll get the idea.

I'll upload the wavs later this evening.

Everything AND the kitchen sink! So, there are a lot of tracks. The mix I did omitted portions of certain harmonies... I just wanted to keep the track interesting by way of development... that is, as the song progresses, I added more harmony each time the chorus repeats.

However, I decided to upload the full versions of each harmony so that you'd have full control when you mix it this weekend. I also messed with the arrangement of the instruments just for fun. I think it's a great track! Personally, I'd like to hear a little more variation through-out instrumentally. I think more dynamic range would increase the listenability.

Here's my latest mix:

Awesome Henk!

**Date:** Feb 1, 2010

this turned out really great Henk! That cartoon effect is very fitting, and i really like the way you superimposed our images over one another. You managed to make a video where we just stand in front of our cameras playing very entertaining! It's pretty mind-blowing considering we haven't met in real life and many of us are in different countries!

I happen to have a copy of Henk's album (he posted a link above) and it's really quite good. I suggest everybody check it out.

so when's the next album going to be done Henk?

**Date:** Feb 1, 2010

Hey Henk
My Friend oh wow this video is just awsome. I really like the cartoon special effects. They are just excellent. You worked very hard and it shows up cool in the video. You did a great job Henk. Thank you Henk and I appreciate it.
your friend Jimmy

**Date:** Feb 1, 2010

Great job Henk, groundbreaking stuff having you all on one vid - well done, I enjoyed it.

V-Band should look to this as the future I feel. More complexity can come with the ease of applications.

Ginchy looks so Roger Waters 2010, lol - classic.

**Date:** Feb 1, 2010

Well done guys!

It's amazing what your guys did!

alex

**Date:** Feb 1, 2010

Hello friends here on V-Band,

Thanks for all the flowers. Please rate it on YouTube and leave your comment!
It will put v-band-de more on the www. map.

So if I was a miljonaire, I would hire the Abbey Road studio to jam with you guy's for a whole week! I just keep on dreaming!

Thank you all,
Henk
