DMUSIC BEATLES COLLAB ALBUM

rolar3	Date: March 9, 2008 @ 3:09 PM It's time to start a DMusic Beatles collab album(s) I know there is plenty of talent out there to redo some classic Beatles tunes. Who knows where this could lead.....I'm in...anyone interested?
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: March 9, 2008 @ 3:31 PM Ordinarily I'd say yes, but I am really busy right now. I am getting into bass lately so could do a Paul on a track or two if you like.
rolar3	Date: March 9, 2008 @ 3:36 PM sounds great.... First we need to pick 10 tunes to do and the players to be involved.
NosmoKing	Date: March 10, 2008 @ 10:53 AM I'm in! - Song suggestions! Sgt. Pepper's - A day in the life! Abbey Road - "I Want You (She's So Heavy" "Here comes the sun" (12 string anyone?) and if we have to do a commercial one "Come together" From Revolver: "Got to Get You Into My Life" Killer horns!
leflaw	Date: March 10, 2008 @ 1:47 PM one after 909
rolar3	Date: March 10, 2008 @ 2:21 PM OK...Howard...let's start with I want you.
GeneHilbert	Date: March 10, 2008 @ 3:15 PM I have two already done.... Taxman & Day Tripper... how many more you want? Imemine has a killer version of "Strawberry Fields"
ViciousKitty	Date: March 10, 2008 @ 5:42 PM Ill listen!!!!!!!
NosmoKing	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 3:55 AM Clarification Rocky.. These are new tunes to be done as a collab with dmusic folks not individual submissions correct?
leflaw	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 4:19 AM I say we accept both collabs and individual submissions. How bout we make a dmusic beatles album and put it on itunes, Walmart and emusic and 30 other websites. We can do that EASY through our existing contracts. (Every Split the profit 50/50 DM and artists. What say you? Its easy to do.
BOWILLIE	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 4:34 AM earlier i had the same thought about individual submissions...being there are quite a few artists here with very good beatle covers.. (and allways wanted to do one myself)..but so far have shyed away from cover tunes.. (the concept would be a very marketable one.. and enjoyable to do. beatles and subsequent british invasion artists have allways been my main influences. rock on dudes.
ChillinBuzz	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 4:38 AM "Split the profit 50/50 DM and artists" Is there no payment necessary to the copyright owner of the Beatles songs? Or publishing rights owner? Or whoever the heck controls their music now? I seem to remember cover versions are acceptable but I wasn't sure how this related to selling an album for profit.
BOWILLIE	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 5:07 AM that reminds me..paul just inked a 400 million dollar deal with apple i think pertaining to itunes..ect.
GTOriginal	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 5:13 AM I think Michael Jackson owns a lot of the Beatle's music. Proof that hell exists. Anyway count me in for a cover of "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" if ya do this - I don't have one but will record it for this project...
BOWILLIE	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 5:17 AM bang bang!
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 6:52 AM I can do a cover of 'I'm Only Sleeping' a kind of personal theme tune for me
leflaw	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 10:42 AM [QUOTE info=ChillinBuzz,March 11, 2008 @ 4:38 AM][/QUOTE] We will pay the mechanical royalties to Michael Jackson's company who owns most of the tunes (9 cents per track sold) off the top before the split.
DeadraveN	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 10:47 AM Lookin' forward to hearing this!
BOWILLIE	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 10:57 AM wow..we could actually be instrumental in paying the cost of a case of super glue for the nose..nice
Distilled1	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 11:33 AM ^rofl yeah its not bad I have thought to do this with some other stuff as well. DMusic as the distributor can we get stuff up to amazon as well? just curious?
aflunky	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 11:42 AM I can Do a cover of "Let it be" Count me in
leflaw	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 2:12 PM We are working on amazon, But itunes, emusic, walmart and Rhapsody ain't a bad start.....
Distilled1	Date: March 11, 2008 @ 4:41 PM nope not at all So my sons in Chorus doing Beatles songs right now think I will record one with him and see hes 12 so be nice!
leflaw	Date: March 21, 2008 @ 3:20 PM I am not dropping this. I have already collected three tunes. Send note to leflaw with url of your beatle cover tune already!!!!!!
BOWILLIE	Date: March 23, 2008 @ 12:08 PM being as alot of above submissions are later beatles we have decided to add some younger flavor with this boy* starting production this tuesday so bear with us.
BOWILLIE	Date: March 26, 2008 @ 4:24 AM and... a question..please specify correct bitrate that you would require for submission?
GeneHilbert	Date: March 26, 2008 @ 4:40 AM 320kbit.mp3 or .wav
BOWILLIE	Date: March 26, 2008 @ 5:27 AM thank you gene
rolar3	Date: March 26, 2008 @ 1:20 PM This idea rocks! Are the Traveling Willbury's welcome? Or Wings?
ShadowMom	Date: March 27, 2008 @ 6:44 AM We actually have a group here who has done a few Beatles tunes. The Hegg Brothers
BOWILLIE	Date: March 27, 2008 @ 6:53 AM yep..im making a general list of artists who have..any discoveries..pass em on to me.
GeneHilbert	Date: March 27, 2008 @ 8:14 AM Not to change the subject - but..... Whatever happen to the Dmusic 'Indie for America' Charity CD.......? I never heard - did the go the way of the dodo...... or what....?
kyodylee	Date: March 28, 2008 @ 3:46 PM FROM K-EARTH 101: Do you have a great homemade version of a Beatles song? If so, record it and send it to us, you may end up on the K-EARTH 101 airwaves! http://www.kearth101.com/pages/1905914.php?
MultiMike	Date: March 28, 2008 @ 4:13 PM You can count me in In the town....where I was born...I grew up on Beatle music
Dizeazed	Date: March 28, 2008 @ 10:14 PM The Beatles?... Who? I was born in 1985, do I not belong in this thread? "Tee hee hee"
GTOriginal	Date: March 29, 2008 @ 12:48 AM OK Here ya go! Maxwell's Silver Hammer
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: March 29, 2008 @ 10:18 AM the dmusic collab album was published on itunes a while back Gene, but a CD version has never (to my knowledge) been released. http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=261255195&s=143455
GeneHilbert	Date: March 29, 2008 @ 6:49 PM itunes...! That's just great.... This place just fucking kills me......
Dizeazed	Date: March 30, 2008 @ 12:45 AM kills Gene .....
GTOriginal	Date: March 30, 2008 @ 12:47 AM Why not? It seems to have killed everyone else...
zedsalt	Date: March 30, 2008 @ 3:28 AM Once, a very unpleasant young lady posed the question, "You know what kills me?", and...as I far too often do...I said the very first thing that came to mind, "When Dorothy throws water on you?"

leflaw	Date: March 30, 2008 @ 2:19 PM We were told that an advance order for 300 copies from a charitable organization was pending, and that we would press CD's when the P.O. came in, which never did. We posted on the trax on Itunes while we were waiting for the Cd order. They haven't been up that long, as it takes a while for itunes to post them.
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: March 30, 2008 @ 8:50 PM How about a contemporary version of the classic Revolver song 'I'm Only Sleeping' http://lqmdemos.dmusic.com/music/comments/365292
leflaw	Date: March 31, 2008 @ 12:14 PM http://bowillie.dmusic.net/journal
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: April 2, 2008 @ 3:23 PM I remixed 'I'm Only Sleeping' - give the public what they want, give us real bass they cry - OK, acid bass sequencer replaced by real bass, with some late Beatlesque flanging for extra effect and the Ableton Live TR909 drum rack drums are replaced by an acoustic drum set played to 'rock' by Jamstix drummer Phil. http://lqmdemos.dmusic.com/music/comments/365470
KC123	Date: April 4, 2008 @ 6:34 AM Sounds like a great opportunity.
BOWILLIE	Date: April 7, 2008 @ 5:21 AM bump*

Mojosnake	Date: April 7, 2008 @ 2:16 PM ok so is the album thing legit ? 'cause i'm thinkin i'm in but i dont want to waste my time so someone let me know if we are actually gonna sell this thing, not that i expect dollers or anything just wanna be sure it's gonna get out if i do it
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: April 7, 2008 @ 4:12 PM I see your point, the Indie For America project has not been as successful (yet) as we hoped it might and other collab projects/ contests in the recent past have fallen ungraciously on their arse. Whether it happens or not, at least Dmusic has the licenses to allow cover versions, so nothing to lose really, it's still a work you can showcase. Soundclick and other sites have no licensing for covers and actively discourage it. I say go for it Mojo, 'He got muddy water, he one MOJO filter' - yup, Come Together would be a great track for you !
GeneHilbert	Date: April 7, 2008 @ 4:54 PM Here come old flat top.....
hate9wicket	Date: April 8, 2008 @ 4:55 PM If I may say.... I've been toying with the idea of Dear Prudence. The sun is up, the sky is blue it's beautiful, and so are you. Probably my favorite Beatles tune. We'll see. :crossfingers:
GeneHilbert	Date: April 8, 2008 @ 5:08 PM For all Beatles fans... See the movie "Across The Universe" Very Kewl.

BOWILLIE	Date: April 11, 2008 @ 2:17 PM i made a collage with what dmusic members that had a available pict.. dmusics heart club band http://images2.dmusic.com/users/b/o/w/bowillie/65443.gif
BOWILLIE	Date: April 11, 2008 @ 2:39 PM and also... this says it all..sets the bar a little higher. a day in the life collab nosmoking/multimike/rolar3. http://nosmoking.dmusic.com/music/comments/365763
leflaw	Date: April 11, 2008 @ 3:54 PM I met Stuart Sutcliff's sister Pauline. Does that count?
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: April 11, 2008 @ 11:52 PM I met Peter Sutcliffe the Yorkshire Ripper :yikes: ...
zedsalt	Date: April 12, 2008 @ 3:36 AM The answer to leflaw's question really depends on just how big of a fan someone is, doesn't it? I mean, I figure most of us would fall somewhere between, "Stu who?" and "Omigawd!!! Stuart's sister?!? That's SO cool!!!"
BOWILLIE	Date: April 12, 2008 @ 3:49 AM indeed it does. sutcliff..and his lady ingrid kirchherr..were both important to the image of what was to become the beatles. from his co reaction of the name beetles..later changed e to an a and astrids hair style she created that later was world know as the beatle hair cut. with stue's umtimely demise from an early kick in the head from an early german club brawl..kieser club i think) without his passing..they probally would have been something entirely different..(band wise)
leflaw	Date: April 12, 2008 @ 5:01 AM I learned all this cool Beatle inside stuff---- Like.. George Harrison was the most evil Beatle!
GeneHilbert	Date: April 12, 2008 @ 5:35 AM On 12th Apr 2009, leflaw said: most evil Beatle! LOL a weevil beatle
BOWILLIE	Date: April 12, 2008 @ 6:02 AM ive got the devil in my heart... no no nay will i decieve..
1o1rocks	Date: April 17, 2008 @ 4:41 AM please count me in!! PLEASE!! i want to do the cover of "Let it Be" PLEASE GUYS!!!
NosmoKing	Date: April 17, 2008 @ 4:44 AM Be like the Nike commercials "Just do it"
1o1rocks	Date: April 17, 2008 @ 4:50 AM please count me in!! PLEASE!! i want to do the cover of "Let it Be" PLEASE GUYS!!!
BOWILLIE	Date: April 17, 2008 @ 4:52 AM ..get busy with it then.
rolar3	Date: April 17, 2008 @ 2:52 PM How many tunes do you have collected so far Larry? When is the cutoff date for this project?
Mojosnake	Date: April 19, 2008 @ 4:03 PM yeah i work better under pressure .... no id ont..yes i do ... shut up we dont do sh@t when theres a deadline remember dont mind the shouting behind me hell just disregard this
1o1rocks	Date: April 20, 2008 @ 8:31 AM when the song is done....we just have 2 upload it on our page or send it to rolar3??
leflaw	Date: April 20, 2008 @ 11:16 AM no cotoff date... when we get enough good stuff.
rolar3	Date: April 20, 2008 @ 1:14 PM Pressure????? You think the Stones were under pressure at one time to come up with tunes or what? I know the Beach Boys were pissed back in the day too! None of them could touch Jimi!!! None of 'em! And they all knew it! Yes...the British invasion tipped their caps to early Seattle!
rolar3	Date: April 20, 2008 @ 1:15 PM Because Jimi was so far ahead of his time, he should be about 5 years old by now. (true story just ask me)
rolar3	Date: April 20, 2008 @ 1:15 PM Not to slight Johnny and the Moondogs in the least BTW!
BOWILLIE	Date: April 20, 2008 @ 2:51 PM those issues need addressed i suppose. with a organized plan things will go smoother. ive been listing all tracks found* on dmusic.. but thats just a list..the actual participants in a cd venture i suppose will be decided by leflaw when its all said and done. the number of tunes..the artists chosen for said cd.. the quality of a given track. like i said..i have a long list..but actually contacting and getting any of them to submit the better ones is beyond me. so...our this boy beatles track is up..if it gets included..thats cool..if not..thats cool too.. i just hope for a very enjoyable quality cd when this comes to fruition.
imemine	Date: April 21, 2008 @ 2:53 PM Oh wow! Great idea!!!! Can I still get in on this? If worthy. I've been out for a while. Thanks to Bo for tipping me off. and thanks Gene.
tracy	Date: April 21, 2008 @ 4:04 PM I think I should deputize bowillie....
BOWILLIE	Date: April 22, 2008 @ 1:28 AM hello? dmusic artists? get those tracks rolling! (dont know how much help i could possibly be,,but of coarse if theres anything i can do in my scope of knowledge i will be happy to can i have more than one bullet for my gun?
lazrpo1nt3r	Date: May 5, 2008 @ 1:58 PM I'll do my part. I was thinking of redoing my recording of Rain anyway, my original was killed off by a computer virus.
leflaw	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 4:33 AM Progress report: http://beatlescovers.dmusic.com/
GeneHilbert	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 6:12 AM Whomever did the re-master of Taxman. It is to compressed - it sounds squashed.... Use the original version on my page.
GeneHilbert	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 6:23 AM This might even be a version I had previously uploaded. I had a version that was flat and really too bright - so this could be it. I have recently remastered and uploaded a better version on my end. So please replace the file you are using with my newer version. Thanks
evansorchid	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 9:31 AM I don't mean to be picky....but....I thought that Imagine was a Lennon solo effort not a Beatles tune.
GeneHilbert	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 9:38 AM You are correct.....
leflaw	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 9:39 AM I count Beatle solo efforts as Beatles. My own interpretation.
GeneHilbert	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 9:44 AM Aunt Bea, Help..... ! Opie's bald
GeneHilbert	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 9:46 AM Can someone please add a got-damn delete option to the forums.....
leflaw	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 1:06 PM I have one. Doesn't everybody?
rolar3	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:03 PM Love the Hegg Bros version of Something...
rolar3	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:04 PM New Beatles tune on the way very soon from the NosmoKing and MultiMike and I....by the end of the week.....
evansorchid	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:19 PM On 18th May 2009, leflaw said: I count Beatle solo efforts as Beatles. My own interpretation. So, Band On The Run would count by that interpretation?
rolar3	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:21 PM sure it would....so would Let Em' in and COming Up and Silly Love songs and Jet etc....
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:21 PM What about Mull Of KinDIRE, The Frog CHorus and Ebony and Ivory while we're at it ?
rolar3	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:21 PM and anything Pete Best has recorded on an analog Tascam Porta 1. (Tat's all he can afford these days)
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:21 PM And Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time ...
Distilled1	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:21 PM I love Band on the Run whos covering it
rolar3	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:22 PM And any Billy Preston covers count too!
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:22 PM But we HAVE to draw the line at Ringo's solo efforts
ChillinBuzz	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:22 PM On 18th May 2009, leflaw said: I count Beatle solo efforts as Beatles. My own interpretation. Bollocks - To put it bluntly. The Beatles were awesome but McCartney's solo stuff was not on the same level... And as for Lennon's stuff, it was in a class of its own.
leflaw	Date: May 18, 2008 @ 3:24 PM I have spent 24 hours listening to Beatles Covers... THEY ARE GREAT!!!! Keep em coming.
