A late night tune

[Tuomas]

Hi. I thought, why not post this here too. It's a song I made hmm, it's ready now, so 2 AM... inspired by Annie and Babar who were wondering what Matlab ki Duniya would be in English. So they ended up with A Mercenary World:

<Annie> perhaps mercenary but that implies money
<scotch> mercenary seems fine to me
<Babar> "a mercenary world" sounds funky
<Tuomas> I'll make a song of that!
<Tuomas> give us a key, please

And the key was C major. I know, it strays to F in the b-section, and sounds a bit horrible, but hey. This was after all composed and recorded in 20 minutes or so, and it was the first real recording I managed to do with this machine. So if there's wrong notes, crappy chords anything, feel free to tell me. I'll most likely spot them in the morning anyway, but for your joy, I present, A Mercenary World by Tuomas Renvall. (Please don't steal this from me )

yeah, and feel free to recommend a place to upload better than rapidshare. Afaik, it works for me always.

The groove is indeed very nice. The chord progression as well.

It is of course a 20 minutes work, so it's perfectly understandable, but: it is rather repeatative most of the way, the solos stick on the "wrong" notes, there are timing and sync issues between the two guitars, and could use some bass (and maybe some drums as well :-/)

Why I'm saying all of this? Cause I think that it can really work! That's why! PLUS! My wife was dancing to the sound of your music, which is a big thing to do really! At 08:00 in the morning!

So there! Fix it up please!

EDIT: Oh I really really like the sound of the two guitars, I'd say don't change a thing to that department!

I can never download files from Rapidshare... maybe because I'm on a home wireless network or something. 

Anyway, I was just downloading some files from http://upload2.net/ and they worked for me, so maybe you can try uploading there?

Looking forward to hearing your tune
