The Pretender (acoustic quartet addition for contest)

[sharty5000]

was this for the my grammy moment thing?

[jefforysanders]

kinda, it didnt meet the criteria for 60 seconds of performance but i just threw it out there for amusement anyway.

cheers

[sharty5000]

yea true, its a shame you didnt win, this was pretty cool

[jefforysanders]

:) thats awful nice, thanks.

[JustinTyme]

This is absolutely outstanding. Like actually..... SOO epic. I love it.

[jefforysanders]

these guys really shined with this powerful arrangement. it has that classy feel combined seamlessly with pounding rock flavor. the dynamic landscape makes for a roller coaster ride of tender lows and grungy highs. i tried to keep the addition 3 pieces in the intro subtle but supportive. garageband, though considered unprofessional by many, is a simple to learn tool. even this technically challenged old school drummer found understanding. mostly due to its visual interface. thanks a million! :)

[AdawgMB]

you win?

[jefforysanders]

not even. some hottie asian chick on violin kicked everyones ass hard! she looked and played so fine i didnt mind a bit! lol

[Ponymastr]

i definetly heard it.what kind of instrument do the foo fighters use for the beggining part (it almost sounds like a cello)?

[jefforysanders]

i believe the original has a solo cello.

[hippie3421]

uhh wots the difference?????

[tehsprite]

are your ears made out of lead?!?

[hippie3421]

are u made out of lead?!?

the only difference i heard was at the beginning, everything else sounds the same to me

[musicinanelevator]

did you only put the quartet only int he beginning? it sounds the same everywhere else

[mailmastermark]

if you listen closely in the background you can hear them playing

[patdmcrmyloves]

Wow! This is amazing. I love it!

[foofightrs]

That was badass!

[96JUSTIN]

wtf did you do?! Sounds basically the same.

[Manticore4]

Very well done opening, but is that the only new part I can not hear the quartet past 0:32.

[jefforysanders]

the quartet is/are the only added tracks but i remastered the original mix, listen to the cymbals here then on the original they are the most obvious change and on the drums i added more low end bump, esp. kick drum.

thanks for listening/looking

[CharlesWII]

i think i'm missing something... i can't notice anything different... but then, that probably is because i'm musically retarded :P

[jefforysanders]

in my entry form i explained that my image would detract fans and offered them use of my arrangement should they feel it worthy for a nice looking group of players :)

[gibsonlover123]

gr8! butthis does not fit in with the rules of the contest, first of all it has to b 60 seconds and also it has to be a video of u playing a solo version of pretender. so this will b disqualified if u submit it, but i luv it! its br8
