Just a doodle. I thought it sounded kind of cute, though.

It's 2 x Oboe/Cor Anglais, Russian Choir, Mk II Brass and String
Section, Rebirth sequencer, synth bass, Hammond percussion loops, stolen
sounds, ACID 4.x and Sound Forge for those of you interested in that
kind of irrelevant crap. That's you, Blechta.

What'd I do? I don't care what's on it -- as long as it doesn't include smelly gases...

Never been a Genesis fan and don't like the song but did enjoy the
mellotron.

Possibly I'm a bit too old, my younger sister liked them, I liked King Crimson and still have a soft spot for Woolly Wolstenhome either BJH or Maestoso. I probably shouldn't say this but I don't care much for the Moody Blues either! But I do like the sound of the Mellotron and hope to own one, one day.

Heh, I just had a bizarre idea (fifth one today, and I haven't even
finished my hot chocolate).

A challenge to the musos out there...

It's one thing to put 'tron in a song where it belongs (and, yep, that
Genesis tune was nicely done!)...But it's another thing to find a song
that doesn't have 'tron now...and probably never should have. Now
what if you took it upon yourself to do such a mash-up...?

Think "God Save the Queen" with 'tron sax. Actually that might work...

...kl...
M400 #805 - what about "Butcher Baby"?
M400 #1037 - "Ever had the feeling you've been cheated...?"

Ken,
You're right, Pistols are too easy - how about something along the
lines of The Cramps...maybe I Was A Teenaged Werewolf...

I've done a fair few Tron overdubs here and there and one of my
perennial faves was what I did to 'White man In Hammersmith Palais' by
the Clash. (Which is a great song, incidentally - just not very
*Mellotron*, that's all) For the record I used church organ and string
section.

I also did the same thing to 'Peggy Sue' (another great song) using Mk
II brass and I thought it sounded *better*. Then again, I was pissed
as a twat at the time.(*)

Finally got around to listening to this. Nice work, Andy!

I hadn't heard the song before, so can't comment on how *much* of an
improvement it is, but it's probably significant. I dread ever hearing
it 'tronless.

I like it very much...
Myself I have recorded an album with some songs featuring my lovely
tron. I'm still trying to figure out how to properly record and EQ a
tron, but nobody's perfect ;)

You can access the disc here: http://www.jamendo.com/es/album/6413/

Songs to feature mellotron are 4, 9, 11 and 12. But you can download the
entire album if you like ;)

Hope you like it.

Best.
