Heyo!

Its been a while, but the other weekend the 3 of us sat down and actually recorded something!! Deftones cover of Around the Fur, pretty impressive for 3 drunk dudes on a Friday night, let us know what you think if there is anybody actually roaming around here anymore…


Download – Deftones – Around the Fur Early Master

So this is a track that has been lingering for a little while, it was done a little while ago, it’s incomplete and that why its here in RAWCUTS. This started out life as and Dave J and Nate (DATE) track and there was a hint of someone playing bass on this too but yet to come to fruition. There are many things that need attention in this track, like the intro is less than par, maybe the verse drums are too hard hitting, the bridge is cool but maybe to different and the end maybe too long. Nate’s vox are stellar as usual, the understated style is awesome here but, more vox are needed to make it come to life. I thought this would would be a good stage to throw this on for some feedback, i know Nate and myself are keen on this track and will finish it, but just need the motivation….

All comments welcome, here we go:

DATE – Suede

Hey all, this is an oldie by comparison to a bunch of new stuff we have done (yet to be uploaded), but still, this is unfinished, surprise surprise with me (DJ). I figured it would be cool to upload to see if its worth pursuing, i really like the feel of it, Nate did a stellar job on the vox, listening back i cant remember how much more i wanted to do to this, but anyhow any feedback you guys have is always appreciated…

DATE – Twilight

Here’s one we did ages ago!!! This is roughly 12 months old, there’s 2 versions, 1 with vox and an extended version without vox, its all very un-pollished, but i really like this track, I think Tim’s Vox were something about war but you guys can correct me in the comments, black bird hang’in in the sky line is killer…So let us know if this a track worth persuing…Screw it i’m calling this one Black Bird, Enjoy…

Black Bird (W/O Vox Extended)

Black Bird (w/Vox)

 

Okie Dokie, so this is from, hmmmm early 2010, has a unique feel and plan to do something with this, sent to a few of the guys for vocal ideas but i think they though WTF! lol, anyway have a squiz and see what you think….

 

The 1

Late Summers afternoon,
Esky dragged from van, over shrub filled hills, parting soft sloping sand,
Low slung Sun floods copper tones, a fire pit parted,  the evenings home.
The first Coca Cola™ is pulled, with the ice done it’s need,
And with a hint of a theatrical pause – metallic cap – is free’d.
“timp-op” 
And with that simple sound….
       The party is started….

Pay attention now – This is deadly serious.  From the depths of pop culture, comes a new band destined for stardom, from left to right the band (keith – vocals, tom – drums, stevie whales – guitar and robin – bass) hubristicly strike a chord with audiences from far and wide and touch on some of the key dynamics that make or break most bands in its wake. Enjoy…

 

Euthanize

Hey, were back again with our second track..Nate and Me have been tinkering around with this one for a while and we are excited to see what the TFML audience thinks of this one….Not sure what genre this one would slot into but eager to hear what you guys think of this style and as always we know we can rely on the honest feedback of you guys. It’s a fun track and hope you guys have as much fun listening as we had writing and recording it!

This is the first real complete collaboration between Nate Rose and myself (Dave Jones), it started with us chatting and saying we’d like to try a “radio” type sounding track and then grew from there…started with a verse-chorus idea then Nate added a bridge idea, some vox and after plenty of back and forward action this is what we have…Would love to hear your feedback and ideas as always…
