Chorus.fm Member Compilations - HALLOWEEN COMPILATION (Out now!) • Page 201

fuck. i can’t shake this cold i’ve had for the last week and a half. I think i’m gonna have to drop out of this one. definitely can’t sing in this condition. bummed, i really wanted to do NIN.

 

Yeah I gotta get rid of this cough.

 

Same, been ill for about a month now, suuuuucks.

 

I've made zero progress on my Golgotha cover, but I did write a sweet bassline today for an original. So that was cool too I guess.

 

No progress on anything besides a mediocre old97s cover. :/ trying to get an isbell or country tune sounding good.

 

I'm planning on recording my song this weekend. I'm covering my friends' band's song, ha.

 

That Old 97s song is great though

 

11 DAYS UNTIL COVERS ARE DUE!

 

Maybe i'll do "Don't Take The Money" by Bleachers if I can find some time.

 

I flirted with the idea of a 20SF song (very poorly) just to fuck with you.

 

Finished my cover! Woo!

 

My covers are all almost done! Finishing them up on Wednesday hopefully!!

 

Less than a week til songs are due!

I'm definitely gonna forfeit the SZA song.
I'm still working on the Taylor song.....I had this grand idea but it started sounding like doo doo. Might end up just sending in the vocal and acoustic track and keep it simple.

 

I can’t do Motion Sickness. Please change to Phoebe Bridger’s “Killer.”

 

I updated the list. I hope it's all accurate! And I hope everyone gets feeling better soon!

PS: It's crazy that last year we had 27 songs submitted for the "Best of 2016" comp.

 

hope it's not too late. my throat is getting better. think i'm going to throw together a quick cover of Ravens, by Mount Eerie, which is a pretty important song to me.

 

I love when it's time to record harmonies.

My scratch tracks for Run are done. Wanna practice vocals a bit more for it before I send it in.

 

I'm not gonna be able to do this, I've been ill for too long and a month later am no better unfortunately.

 

TRACKS ARE DUE IN 2 DAYS!

 

I may be dropping out. Due to weather, my wife has been home all but 1 day of my days off since before Christmas. I'm way behind and don't know if I'll get either done.

Right Now is my priority because @JakeRabin already recorded drums for me! I'm still going to finish it even if I miss the deadline.

 

Sad to say I'm not going to be able to get to this one either . Looking forward to hearing what you guys create though!

 

Real bummed we won't be getting Cumberland Gap! I get it though
