Title: Apart (Original by ORH & Launched)
Post by: launched on July 11, 2009, 10:21:41 AM
Jim (OldRottenHead) knocked the dust off this one that I had in collabs, cleaned up my lyrics and worked his magic. And all before lunch. Wow!
Had to squash it a little to make it fit.
Peace,
Mark
Should have done this years ago - Here's the final mix with SE's cool rhythm guitar additions:

Wow, that brooding bassline gets you right from the start and is the backbone of this great song. The guitar parts are exquisite, vocals are spot on and the production is honed to perfection. The song just draws you in.
All in all, a fantastic song!!!

the lyrics where all pretty much in place i just juggled em about a bit.
this was fun to do ,
and i dont know if i said already but that bass sounds good well worth the 200 mile trip.
i still see lots of space for more instruments on this wot do you think mark?

You are a bass playing machine. This is great. WOW, double WOW Mark. You instrumentation is stunning, a composer with the bass. Your guitar work is great. What a frigging vocal from ORH, holy sh*t this is intense. Brilliant. WOW.

Mark!!!!!!!!
Your Bass is amazing bro!!!!!
Sometimes it is all you need in a track! You have proved it here!
But your Guitar parts prove the perfect Polish!!!!!!!!
I Love the theme of the Lyric!!!
Near death and after life stuff!
The next step!
ORH.......
Atheists aren't supposed to be singing about that stuff!!!!!!
Wicked Vox.........
Never heard you so distorted ....... Was such a driving tune that it needed it though!
Cool as F**k!!!!!
Peace Guys

Brilliant collab ! Love that bass and the annoying :) guitar ... a great track to begin with, and then ORH once again takes a song one step further Love the vox on this one too. ..... and that bass is really something!

Post by: launched on July 12, 2009, 02:54:09 PM
Thanks for the comments, guys!! That bass part was fun (could have ben cleaner, but it was fun to do).
I thought Jim's vox were really cool, too - Effect #22 ststeel in stereo.
We tried to get some echo-delayed strat for this, but no luck - I don't have the gear or talent for it. Anybody?
Peace,
Mark

Very trance like bordering on hypnotic. Good job guys, not my cup of tea, but very well done.

This needs a bump!
The bass and guitars just makes you feel like a Bad-ass when you listen to it!
ORH.....

I was listening to this one on my way in to work in the car (Ipod), cranked loud. Damn guys this is stunning. Great song Mark, great vocal ORH. This one sounds really good LOUD. What a site this is, incredible music springing up like weeds all over the place.

Thanks, BB - the bass is a little fluttery and has some dead spots, but I think it sounds good in the car, too. Your stuff is prett crankable in the vehicle as well. (The Tull cover stays in the player - love that one...)

Supreb stuff, that bassline and particularly the sound is to die for! Clever way you double the riff with the bassline Mark. Killer dreamy vox by ORH, this is right in Osckilo territory, no wonder T likes it! Break out the Hawkwind guys. Love it.
Cheers,
Nigel

Can't add much either to whats been said. But I do like your bass right up front. Many times the bass is lost in the background. And I believe it is the driving power of most songs. So my hats off to you!!

Loving what I hear. Those vocals are outstanding orh. Just takes an already great track into the stratosphere. Very reminiscent of The Charlatans, which is no bad thing!!!! F*cking awesome track. I wish it was a Jemima's Kite one, lol.

Bring it back, damn man bring it back. That bass growl knocks me right back into yesterday. ORH sounds like a man possessed here. Fantastic song needing to be heard again.

great stuff. that bass line is so cool and orh psycho-delic vocal, an allround winner.

Post by: T.C. Elliott on October 11, 2010, 09:10:10 AM
That bass line is really driving... but that processed guitar bit that repeats is great. With the space on the vocal track it almost sounds phased. It really fits together nicely.

Post by: Hook on July 11, 2012, 05:53:25 AM
This is a mammoth, gem of brilliance! To repeat what every one has said that bass line knocked me down and rolled right over me and the vocals are top shelf! Great tune, completely radio ready! Rock On!
Title: Re: Apart (Original by ORH & Launched)
Post by: Geir on July 11, 2012, 06:02:01 AM
Yep this is a great one Mark!! I seem to remember that someone added an extra guitar and I added a lead. Tried to search for it but couldn't find it. Was it ever posted? Or have I been dreaming ::) ???
