Acoustic Arrangement of "Aquatic Ambience" from Donkey Kong Country - Fred Baty

[relaxdaily]

this is excellent! love it.

[TehFoog]

This is an absolutely gorgeous rendition of Aquatic Ambience. Excellent; you have such talent in harnessing the peaceful and "reverberating" quality of the song. I wish my electric sounded so smooth.

[XRasenX]

Incredible interpretation, amazing dynamics.

[DuckDuckSilvio]

Oh my god, this is amazing.

Fred I want to download your music but I can't, will be that you can send the music to my email? thomasjogador@hotmail.com

[Fredbaty]

@Thomas67528 Hi Thomas, are you talking about my Crepusculum releases or a recording of this arrangement? If the latter, then I haven't recorded it yet so would only be able to use the audio from this video. If the former, you should be able to download them from 12rec's BandCamp without too many issues. Let me know!

[Thomas67528]

@Fredbaty Hi Fred . Then I really wanted to recording of this arrangement, it's very nice...... I don't understand this website, PLEASE you can send the recording in my email?? Let me know!!

[Fredbaty]

@Thomas67528 Thomas, check your email! Anyone else who would like a download of the audio from this video, check the video info.

[maynardr6]

Fred, that was unbelievable. Remember what I told you 3 years ago?

[Fredbaty]

@maynardr6 Thank you very much indeed! I must admit that I don't, but take nothing away from that other than that my memory isn't exactly spectacular, haha.

[chicksand3]

So mystifying

[qebiko]

Beautiful!

I really like the sound of the guitar in this vid, nice work here! May i ask how you recorded this? Just the nt5 straight into the soundcard? Or did you use any preamp? What about post processing?

[Fredbaty]

@fr618 Thanks very much man. It was indeed just the NT5 straight into my Edirol UA25, as usual. As far as post-processing is concerned, all guitars had reverb, EQ, compression and subtle delay added in Ableton. The EQ was really just hi and lo passes, with a couple of mid-cuts in the left and right guitars to allow more space for the centre guitar. Shoot me a message if you want more detailed info!

[fr618]

@Fredbaty That is sufficient for now. I am going to record some acoustic stuff of a friend of mine and was curious how you achieved that sound, since i don't have a lot of experience in the acoustic field, but your answer already helps.. thx!

[fretlessbass]

wow this brings back memories!

[jawkster]

[AcousticLabs]

Wow, I hadn't heard that song in years and years.  It WAS a great soundtrack, especially for a game of that era. But I prefer your Acoustic version, Fred. It's amazing!
