Sinaloan Milk Snake Song
June 28, 2007 6:08 PM
A lo-fi cover of a lo-fi song by the Mountain Goats, from Zopilote Machine. Made in GarageBand, vocals recorded with built-in mike. I'm brand-new at this, so I welcome technical advice about how the mixing, recording, use of loops, etc. can be improved.

Ha, I forgot that I posted about my love for this song on AskMeFi before:
The last thirty seconds of the Mountain Goats' "Sinaloan Milk Snake Song" feature a really edifying sequence of grunts, hoo-has, and heavy breathings from John Darnielle and the Bright Mountain Choir.

Anyway, yeah, when I play songs for myself I try to make them sound somewhat like the original, but that more or less ends up sounding like the record but not as good, and I didn't see why you all would need to hear that...

Yeah, really cool. The voices could be recorded a little bit better, and I don't say this as an expert in recording but as someone who gets told that a lot. I also say it because I liked the song (your version, I've never heard the original) and with a little more care in the voices it would be something really cool to hear.
