Song 1 - "Another Brick in the Wall" by Pink Floyd

Another good one @Ant !
:+1:

Hi everyone,
Since I was told to cross posting my first ever cover in the appropriate #50-songs-challenge thread …
Here it is :



As i mentioned previously, I’m quite nervous taking video of myself but it’s really rewarding as a learning process. Now for some technical aspects :

  • Bass is recorded on Linux (Fedora) with a Spark Mini amp (an overpriced gadget with good features … still overpriced though)
  • I wrote the play-along tab with musescore, then run the playback and capture my screen. Then import and edit the resulting video in Flowblade (a non-linear video editor)
  • Finally, last thing I wanted to share is scrcpy :
    a little app that works with Linux (and as far as I know, windows too) that lets you remotely control an android device. It makes things a lot easier to hit the video record button as I prepare myself to play.

Audio file only :

I hereby officially begin my 50 song challenge :smiley:.

I’ve never liked this song. The video gave me nightmares when I was little - maybe the nihilistic terror of a totalitarian dystopia - but it’s number one on the list so I’d better get it over with…

I read somewhere that Roger Waters used a P-bass stright into the amp so that’s how I went…

Next up - CCW :+1: :smiley: :+1:

Well done, nailed it.

I really wanted to like Floyd but was never able to. I can appreciate them for sure but I’m usually not reaching for them.

Yeah I like Dark side of the moon and Wish you were here but I just can’t get into anything else. Maybe I should just take more drugs…
