Dirty Diana (Michael Jackson metal cover by Jotun6662 / Leo Peña)

[PtFurious]

Come to Dallas some time. Hundreds of venues that would love to have you.

[Jotun6662]

@PtFurious Wow, I would like to make a USA tour, man, but I don´t think I would have the support necessary for it. Anyway, thanks a lot for words!

[PtFurious]

You need to be signed, if you aren't. I would pay to see you live. Tremendous talent!

[Jotun6662]

@PtFurious I´m not signed and it´s very difficult to get a little sponsorship (I´ve tried with EMG and LTD, as are my pickup and guitar brand of choice....but had no success)

I really appreciate your words and am really glad you liked my work

[koHTpepac]

excelente la calidad del audio, gracias por poner el link de descarga!

@koHTpepac Muchas gracias a ti por tus palabras y por escuchar mi música y versiones.

Un saludo

@Backlash54 Muchas gracias por tus palabras. Me alegra que te hayan gustado esas dos versiones y que las lleves en tu teléfono para escucharlas

[tabooman]

Finally. A good Michael metal cover.

[Jotun6662]

@tabooman Thanks a lot for your words, man! I love both worlds: MJ and metal, so I think my covers show respect for the artist, and not try to take advantage of his name.

Glad you liked my cover

[EpidemicESP]

Hola tío! por que no haces la versión metal de grenade de bruno mars? sería epico!! ^^

[Jotun6662]

@EpidemicESP La verdad es que es una de las versiones que tenía en mente hace tiempo...A ver si cuando esté más libre le doy caña. Gracias por la sugerencia, tio!

[Jotun6662]

@EpidemicESP Bueno, pues ya está casi subida la versión leñera del Grenade. A ver si la escuchas y me dices. Un saludo!

[DunkleFlugel]

Just work harder your english accent and this will be perfect. Grettings

[Jotun6662]

@DunkleFlugel I will try, man! I thought I hadn´t a bad English, but I guess it´s not that good :P Anyway, thanks for the tip and glad you liked the cover!

[Fatalissichel]

Its Great i Love it!!!! :D

[Jotun6662]

@Fatalissichel Thanks a lot!

[robburton1980]

love your version great gritty rock guitar sounds wicked as hell

[Jotun6662]

@robburton1980 Thank you very much! Glad you liked my version and the guitar sound

[inear7hed]

You're a genius.

I think that's enough said.

[Jotun6662]

@inear7hed Thank you very much for your kind words! Glad you liked my work

[inear7hed]

@Jotun6662 Well, it's people like you who inspire me, so you're welcome. :D :) But I've got one question - are you self-taught?

[Jotun6662]

@inear7hed I´m very flattered by your words and really happy to know that I am able to inspire people to play. Thanks!

Answering your question: yes, I´m self-taught, except for one year that I was learning spanish flamenco guitar :D The rest was (poorly) learnt by me

[noiseb13]

btw nice guitar...i use a schecter omen 7..7 strings gives you more power :D

[Jotun6662]

@noiseb13 Thanks! It´s an LTD K 500 (Kelly Hayes signature) tuned down to B, but I bought a 7 string guitar (an O3, spanish hand made guitar), though I´m not sure if I will keep it or sell it to buy a LTD H 1007, which I love...

And your Shecter must rock, man! Congrats!

[noiseb13]

@Jotun6662 thx a lot...ltd and esp guitars az fckin' sound great..a bit heavy to me..i mean the weight..in hungary these are one of the most expensive guitars...but schecter imported here a few good quality and not so expensive instruments..so keep up the good work and good misic :)

[Jotun6662]

@noiseb13 I think it depends on the model, because my K 500 is the lightest guitar I have ever owned, but still resonates a lot and have an awesome sustain. Maybe the LTD H1007 will be heavier, but I´ll research before buying it.

Thanks a lot for your encouraging words!

[noiseb13]

fckin' great cover...you kind of remind me the guy froom trivium :) respect from a hungarian musician :)

[Jotun6662]

@noiseb13 Thanks a lot, man! Not a bad guy to be compared with ;) Regards from Spain!

[ViruStaffo]

great cover man you deserve more views than others!

[Jotun6662]

@ViruStaffo Thanks, man! I suppose I´m not as pretty as the other guys :P Glad you liked it!

[gonzo1arc]

this is my favorite MJ song, MJ rocks as a rock artist, Bad is the best album imho. Excelent cover!

[Jotun6662]

@gonzo1arc Thanks, man! MJ was great at performing different styles, and rock was one of them. I love Bad too (it was my first vinyl as a young kid)

[LeoDaFreek]

you deserve millions of views!

[Jotun6662]

@LeoDaFreek Thanks a lot! I hope I get the 10th of that visitis :D And your name is Leo? I ask you that because that´s my name :D Thanks!

[LeoDaFreek]

@Jotun6662 yes my name is Leo too :)

[Jotun6662]

@LeoDaFreek Hahaha, nice coincidence, man!

[quyphuongtay]

Thriller more missing songs on the list alone is enough cover Michael Jackson music

[Jotun6662]

@quyphuongtay I´m recording right now a metal cover for Smooth Criminal...Stay tuned, as I´ll upload it very soon...

[quyphuongtay]

@Jotun6662 time is not in which quan please attempt to at the sound, Dirty Diana If your last segment sound of the guitar too big, attempt to at the sound of music Smooth Criminal

[Jotun6662]

@quyphuongtay Sorry, but I cannot understand what you´re trying to tell me. If you could try again, please...

[quyphuongtay]

@Jotun6662 try on the audio tracks for smooth criminal

[Ehren11997744]

Hey man thanks for the comment on my GNR cover...Your stuff rocks !!

[Jotun6662]

@Ehren11997744 Thanks, man! Glad you liked my recordings and thanks for your comment too!

[huntwarlock]

Buenisimo!!! Me encantan las covers que haces. Me preguntaba si las estas preparando en un CD porque me interesaba tenerlas para poderlas escuchar en el coche, jejeje.

Sigue asi tio, esres un crack.

[Jotun6662]

@huntwarlock Muchas gracias por el ánimo, tio! La verdad es que no había pensado en grabarlas en CD (más que nada porque no tengo los derechos, supongo...), pero es un halago que las quieras escuchar.

Lo que sí puede que haga es un CD corto, un EP o algo similar, con temas mios originales.

Un saludo!

P.D: Eres mi suscriptor nº 200! Gracias!

[Torsten161]

Well, It was a little bit strange to see the beginnig of the movie... but when you started to sing...wow, you made a really good job, sounds great!

Greetings from Germany

[Jotun6662]

@Torsten161 Haha, I know the beggining may be a little odd...Glad you liked the cover.

Greetings from Spain!

[mortekyle]

Leo!!La has hecho la madre que te pario!!

como me gustaria conocerte y hacer algunos trabajillos...

eres una maquina,no pares!!

Un abrazote!!

[Jotun6662]

@mortekyle Hey, muchas gracias, tio! Tú de dónde eras? Lo digo por lo de currar juntos, que yo estoy intentando grabar maquetillas y eso.

Muchas gracias por tu ánimo y un abrazo, tio!

[mortekyle]

@Jotun6662 No se merecen! Tienes mucha calidad versionando y componiendo.Y lo que mas me gusta tu vision musical...me identifico.

Por cierto soy de Barcelona ;)

Un abrazo!!

[Jotun6662]

@mortekyle Ya te ubico! Me dijiste lo del "duende americano"!

Muchas gracias, tio. Me alegro un montón que te sientas identficado con mi forma de ver la música y sería un gustazo poder conocernos. Por Barna he estado currando y puede que grabe a un par de grupos de allí (So Cruel y Icestorm), aunque están por confirmar...

Un abrazo, tio!

[mortekyle]

@Jotun6662 Exacto!! y lo tienes! y sin duda ;)

Los he escuchado a los So cruel son deathmetaleros...Pues a ver si tenemos suerte y nos conocemos seria un placer!y podria aprender cositas interesantes para mi...

Aqui tienes tu casa para lo que te haga falta por si subes por aqui.

Cuidate mucho fenomeno!

[MsAdalove]

Bueno, no se acerca a mi agudo, pero está bien :P 

[Jotun6662]

@MsAdalove Jajaja, Lady Diaaaanaaaaaaa! Tu agudo es inimitable, caniji! :D

[kalmahman48]

dude your singing is amazing, and the in flames covers are the best ive ever seen, yes i have subscribed.

[Jotun6662]

@kalmahman48 Thanks a lot! Glad you liked my singing and thanks for the cumpliment on the In Flames covers. I may be doing another one, thouhg not very soon. Any suggestions?

[kalmahman48]

@Jotun6662 how about ordinary story or coerced coexistence or zombie inc.? they are all great vocal songs and zombie inc. has a nice solo.

[Jotun6662]

@kalmahman48 They are great songs, yeah! I recall doing a Scorn cover a very loooong time ago, and I really like that song. Colony´s songs are very powerful.

[hotwhire]

you should remix this beat with the original song, it would be epic

[Jotun6662]

@hotwhire Not a bad idea...Maybe I´ll give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion!

[hotwhire]

@Jotun6662 yeah, it would be real nice to hear his vocals with these instrumentals you've set up. Like what Blix on youtube does.

[Jotun6662]

@hotwhire I´m not used to doing that, but I´ll research how to do it and try.

[hotwhire]

@Jotun6662 well you need the Acapello version (vocals only song) and then place your beat replacing the original.

[opeth84]

Great in all ways.

The sound is killer and the singing is metal man!!

[Jotun6662]

@opeth84 Thanks, man! Glad you liked the sound and my singing...I cannot help singing that way! :P

[opeth84]

@Jotun6662 No problem, just keep the singing that way! Only practicing would make it better. Like a fine wine way.

[DobetoChan]

Muy bueno,,perspectiva cojonuda del clasico...Brutal!!

[Jotun6662]

@DobetoChan Muchas gracias, me alegro de que te haya gustado el enfoque que le he dado al clasicazo de MJ!

[roberkiss1981]

Muy buena version, tienes mucho talento, te deseo exitos.

[Jotun6662]

@roberkiss1981 Muchas gracias! Ojalá lleguen esos éxitos en breve :D

[kalmahman48]

i think this is better than the mj version, it actually sounds really good with your accent

[Jotun6662]

@kalmahman48 Thank you very much, but MJ´s version is the original, and the way he sings it...is amazing! Glad you liked also my accent :D

[19akatsuki]

oh mi dios me encantoooooooo

la adore con tu voz !!!!!!

:D

muy buena cancion por cierto!!!

adoro tu vooooooooooooozzzzz

:3

X3

[Jotun6662]

@19akatsuki Muchas gracias! Me alegro un montón de que te haya gustado tanto la canción como mi voz. Y la canción es tremenda, pero de eso tienen culpa otros :P

[shindo777]

You have nice teeth.

[Jotun6662]

@shindo777 Hahaha, I don´t think so, but thanks!

[Destroyerrrrrr06]

Awesome Cover dude and dont worry about your acento haha no tiene nada malo ^^

[Jotun6662]

@Destroyerrrrrr06 Thanks, man! :D Hahaha, glad my acento isn´t too malo :P

[garriffs]

:O suena muy bien. Como has grabado las guitarras? , por cierto guapisima la guitarra :)

[Jotun6662]

@garriffs Muchas gracias! La guitarra la verdad es que me encanta, me alegro de que te guste.

Está grabada usando el Pod XT Live, con una simulación creo recordar de Mesa Boogie, directa a mi tarjeta de sonido, una Saffire Pro 40, y al ordenador usando Cubase.

[zbarneyz]

Where you from? Really weird accent...

[Jotun6662]

@zbarneyz I´m from Spain. And I thought I hadn´t a bad English...:P

At least, hope you liked the cover.

[zbarneyz]

@Jotun6662 Haha, yeah i liked the cover. There are many world known singers with ''Weirder'' accents than you. Keep it up!

[Jotun6662]

@zbarneyz Hehe, ok! I was getting worried...:P Thanks for the support, man!

[MinDofMinE]

Fucking Awesome!

[Jotun6662]

@MinDofMinE Fucking thanks! :D

[Basher84]

Dude ....really fucking good Work...Awesome Cover ...Cheers Man

[Jotun6662]

@Basher84 Thanks, man!! Cheers!!

[Ramisoy13]

mis respetos... thats one amazing cover !!!!

[Jotun6662]

@Ramisoy13  Muchas gracias por tus palabras! Glad you liked this cover!

[Chisuz]

hey, which guitar is this, please? looks like my cort z4 evl, but its not this one?

[Jotun6662]

@Chisuz It´s a LTD K500, the Kelly Hayes signature, which is almost exactly as the 25th Anniversary, but I had the pickups changed (had EMG HZ and changed to 81(B)/60(P)). It has an Eclipse (LTD/ESP) shape.

[reinanimateband]

Genial Cover Jotun,cuando las cosas están tan bien hechas poco hay que decir,Enhorabuena!

[Jotun6662]

@reinanimateband Muchas gracias, tio! Me alegro un montón de que te haya gustado, que tu trabajo no es para menos. Un saludaco!

[WidekMusic]

Great Job man, really nice voice!

[Jotun6662]

@WidekMusic Thank you very much! Glad you liked my voice!

[raistanar]

No me deja votar positivo, no sé por qué, pero mañana te lo llevas seguro. Versionaza, tío, tanto en lo musical como en el sonido! Me gusta mucho el bombo, de dónde lo has sacao?

[Jotun6662]

@raistanar No te preocupes, cuando puedas! Muchas gracias!

El bombo lo he sacado del kit Metal Foundry, lo que pasa que luego está procesado en Cubase (eq, compresión, sonic maximizer, etc...) Me alegro mucho de que te guste su sonido.

[TakerSpain]

Tio, otra vez más, te doy mi sincera enhorabuena, a ver si subes más cosas... podrias hacerte famoso o algo xD

[Jotun6662]

@TakerSpain Muchísimas gracias, tio! A ver si en breve subo algo de composición propia...Y yo con poder trabajar grabando grupos y artistas ya estaría encantado!

[lagiator]

nice one. could you post your mastering chain? also what eq you applied to the guitars?

[Jotun6662]

@lagiator Thanks, man.

The mastering chain is simple: Peak Master in Wavelab, Sonic Maximizer and Steinberg´s Multiband Compressor.

I cut some lows and highs to the guitar, but all I do is by ear, because the guitar tone was created from scratch for this song, and the only thing I trusted is that what I listened sounded good.

[ArerepReivaj]

Joder Leo, se me hace raro verte con el pelo corto! :D

Ahora en serio, buena versión del tito Micael. Y yo también tenía pensado hacer una de Give In To Me. Es un tema muy cañero y a mi ver poco conocido.

[Jotun6662]

@ArerepReivaj Jajaja, es normal, Javi. A mí también me pasaba lo mismo contigo al principio.

Me alegro de que te haya gustado, tio. Y sí, Give In To Me es un temazo. No es tan conocido como Dirty Diana, pero también sonó bastante por el hecho de tener a varios GnR en su grabación (en la época en que eran superfamosos)

Avisa si haces alguna, para verla y para no versionarla yo!

Un saludo, tio!

[mariosmetal13]

nice man!!!! you are really good. \m/

[Jotun6662]

@mariosmetal13 Thanks! Glad you liked my MJ covers!

[Viskovitz]

ENORME!!!

[Jotun6662]

@Viskovitz Muchas gracias!!

[bigDayLessIsMore]

Muy buena versión!!!

[Jotun6662]

@bigDayLessIsMore Muchas gracias! Me alegro de que te guste!

[MsAdalove]

Está muy chula Leito. Vas a ser el versioneador oficial de Michael Jackson!

[Jotun6662]

@MsAdalove Muchas gracias, Vir! Ojalá me dieran ese trabajo y honor, que lo haría gustoso!!

Todavía me quedan por versionar, como Who Is It, Give In To Me, Leave Me Alone, Smooth Criminal o Man in the Mirror,que siempre me han encantado.

[brosovich]

brutal tio!!



[Jotun6662]

@brosovich Muchas gracias!

[stchristoph2000]

Very good. This is actually a song I'd like to hear on the radio. Also at4040 ? :D

[Jotun6662]

@stchristoph2000 Thanks a lot! I wish I could be played on radio...And yeah, the mic you are seeing in the video is the one I used to record vocals, and it is the Audio Technica 4040.

[stinger400]

Excelente! eres un pro! oye mas o menos cuantos errores tienes al grabar? pregunto como una curiosidad porque no creo que te equivoques mucho xD...

[Jotun6662]

@stinger400 Jajaja, muchas gracias por el cumplido. No te creas...La voz por ejemplo está grabada en 4 tomas (la principal me refiero), yendo cada una desde el principio tranquilo hasta el final del estribillo, por lo que casi es en directo (se notan algunos fallitos)

Las guitarras de ritmo no son difíciles, por lo que las suelo grabar a la 1ª o 2ª toma.

En los solos sí tengo más trabajo, porque normalmente compongo mientras voy grabando. El primer solo es la 6ª o 7ª toma.

Un saludo!

[JasonIbanez]

Eres el puto amo!! Le doy a me gusta y lo paso a toda la peña !!

Saludossss

[Jotun6662]

@JasonIbanez Hey, muchas gracias, tio! Gracias por la difusión! :D Un saludo!

[elricame]

Muy bueno, me ha encantado!!

[Jotun6662]

@elricame Me alegro un montón! Gracias por el ánimo!

[edugq]

[uliseto]

:O Que Loco, la cancion no saldra de mi cabeza!

Excelente edicion, me gustaron los angulos de camara

[Jotun6662]

@uliseto Muchas gracias, tio! Me alegro de que te gustasen los distintos planos de cámara.
