| H User Info... | That first album thread got me thinking. Since most of us are musicians, im sure we've all recorded at least one demo or album or just a tape of drunken flatulence. I wanna know what was your first recording that you ever played on and how ghetto the process was or somethin. Im just hella bored. For me, my first "public" demo/cd was Gallows' spirit mocking flesh. Mr. Brainless sure did a wicked number on that one, too bad it wasn't mastered. I also recorded two cd's prior to that with destiny impaired, one at the musicians warehouse in nanaimo and the other at my high school. both were too shitty to see the light of day. - Tue, 24 Feb 2004 6:50pm | ||
| ticklefish User Info... | Going a good ways back: first recording done on a 4 track in Calgary with Rumours of War in 89. Live in a rehearsal room, 2 mics on drums (sm58s), bass DI, and line out from the guitar amp. Bussed the two drum tracks down to one, and added vox as overdub. We recorded 6 songs, and 2 of them managed to chart on CJSW (UofC radio station) a number 3 and a number 6.... although before that tape there were about 4 others we did in a similar fashion that never saw the light of day - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 5:34am | ||

| Zippgunn User Info... | Ah memories. The first studio recordings I ever appeared on were with my old pal Casey Pechet for a never released single that featured a version of "Ticket To Ride" on the A-side and a "punk" version of "It's Not Unusual" on the B-side. This would have been in about '78; the studio was the original Legacy (Tascam 80-8). I only got the gig because I owned an electric 12-string. The singer had blown his voice so we overdubbed millions of harmonies on it; it's exquisitely awful. The first thing I played on that the public could buy was the first Shovlhead tape; we sold almost 500 of it, mostly around Victoria. I had just bought a Yamaha compressor, a piece of shit that today I wouldn't use to plug an ugly hole in my rack. I had no idea exactly what a compressor did; I just knew that the "pros" used them and therefore so should I. Result: Lousy recording compressed within an inch of its life. Oh well you have to start somewhere. - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 8:35am | ||
| Laprider User Info... | The first "demo" I recorded was a bad version of "sunshine of your Love"....I sang it through a set of headphones plugged into a traynor amp and recorded onto my circa 81 Ghetto Blaster, recorded at Moms Living room Studios! Hey It got us a gig at school - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 10:47am | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | Mom's Living Room studios is sweet man. They serve cookies and milk there. - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 12:01pm | ||
| jay brown User Info... | hmm, I did a few recordings on this old four track we used to have, mostly just all messed up on m.d.a. singing about how pretty everything was at the time... bwahahahahah. That was the mid eighties. The first actual studio time I spent was doing the first Drone demo in 89. Pretty neat though first time in a studio and we get a record deal out of it that was kinda cool. - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 1:47pm | ||
| brad User Info... | My first recording was in '92 when I was 17, my band Ninth Hour recorded with Scotty Henderson at the "Dollhouse", we released that recording as "Nice Attempt At Nothing Special..." on cassette...sold around 200+ copies, good times. - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 2:15pm | ||
| Nik Olaz User Info... | I did this wicked underground death metal tape with no drums, just me growling with guitars. It's really good. At least for me being 13 at the time. - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 5:07pm | ||
| Mutilashawn User Info... | Mitochondrion demo's before we had any recording software was done with an intricate mess of Fruity Loops demos and N-track Studio demos both stolen from the internet. Done in my bedroom until my parents told us to fuck off. Throw in a fire wire and a band that defines "un-tight" and you have some real shit. Luckily that one got lost on my old computer. But it was exciting at the time. I think I had just turned 17 actually. - Thu, 26 Feb 2004 3:18pm | ||

| D�d[]Sanger User Info... | Ghetto recording of song called Burning Hatred at the time with a band called "Partuk" *Not that you'd know who they are H ;)* - Sun, 7 Mar 2004 5:39pm | ||
| Mr. Hell User Info... | First official recording I'd bother to acknowledge was Acorn Hell-Big Fat Dirt Road. 90 minutes of classic mockery. Since BFDR there have been upwards of 15 releases. If someone begs enough, we might make them publicly available. Until then, wonder until your brain hurts. - Mon, 8 Mar 2004 2:43pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | My first recording was The Jizzwailers record "Sweet Zombie Jesus". 1999. - Tue, 9 Mar 2004 4:42am | ||
| BBJones User Info... | The first real recording I care to mention was Grump - Eight Elbows. A 4 song demo on cassette back around '92 recorded by Bert at Soundloom Productions in Fernwood. It was quickly followed up by another 3 song demo at the same studio by the same guy (he liked us :), which was also quickly followed up by the singer quiting and the band entering a downward spiral of doom. Funny, Bert (the guy recording us) said to us "no matter what, just DON'T break up!!". hehe... Listen here if you like: http://www.bozobits.com/grump - Wed, 10 Mar 2004 12:14pm | ||
| jackass User Info... | Four Fish Fish'n, 16 yrs old, recorded in Zippgunn's basement while holding our breaths (place absolutely reeked of cat shit, sorry Scott but it's true). Smoked a lot of hash that week. First recording, first time getting right baked. GOOD TIMES. - Thu, 18 Mar 2004 6:33am | ||
| el fuckface-o User Info... | funny thing is the cats had run away weeks earlier due to scotts attempts at having sex with them. the shit smell was wafting from his ancient peener. either that or it was coming from his catalogue of past work. - Fri, 19 Mar 2004 9:43am | ||
