tall dwarfs

[ed]

has anybody heard the latest tall dwarfs album? it has two songs co written by jeff and laura! sounds great

[pepe]

Who are the Tall Dwarfs?

[raf]

chris knox's band, from new zealand. the album is called sky above the mud below and it's very good. one of the songs was actually a new jeff song, then chris wrote another part, i think. it's different but good

also, for those who don't remember, jeff played with chris in new zealand in 2001. i've looked everywhere for that bootleg, but nobody has it, which is incredibly sad.

[raydavies02]

it's a good album. i reviewed it for my local college radio station.

[jared]

where can I get this album? I'm very interested in hearing it.

my stereo has a 'vocal remover' mode and it's amazing to hear just jeff's backing vocals. he wrote that melody, that was the original song.

i can make an mp3 of that if you guys want

[jared]

that would be great!

[perfectbrokenmirror]

ooo!! thanks!

what can of stereo do you have? vocal remover, eh? hmmmm


c.s.

[raf]

ok, guys. i will do it tonight and post here.

i got this old aiwa stereo, very crappy, the vocal remover thing is fun, though. it's called "karaoke" actually :P

[Plastic_hero]

Which are the songs that Jeff has co-written (and sings on)? The names please :)

[ed]

possum born
over the waves

[Mirsathia]

If someone wants to send me the mp3s if they burn them, I can put the songs up on my art site so anyone could listen <g>

I did a search on Kazaa and couldn't come up with anything :(

[Plastic_hero]

I have them shared on Soulseek now. If you want me to send them to you Mirsathia I will, but you better tell me you e-mail adress then :)

Possum born isn't all that intresting, but Over the Waves is spectacular :D

[Mirsathia]

Oh, duh. I'm silly. ^_^ Mirsathia@comcast.net

I would like both anyway, if that's not too much trouble. :)

[Plastic_hero]

Sorry for taking so long time, but apparently could my E-mail not send files over 3 mb, so I couldn't send them over the mail. Instead I uploaded them on my friend's ftp, so you can download them from there.

Possum Born (http://4d53.dynup.net/~turumbar/possumborn.mp3) and Over the Waves (http://4d53.dynup.net/~turumbar/overthewaves.mp3).

I hope this works now :)

Oh, thanks! Very interesting stuff, I love Over The Waves. :) Looks like there's another CD on my list of things to get when I have money.

[Mirsathia]

Oh. And there's a plugin for WinAmp Classic (2.91 or something) that is a vocal remover. ^_^ Download it, set the bar to 85% or so, and you can hear Jeff warble without the major singing in the way! Gorgeous. :D

Just need to do a search on 'vocal remover' and 'winamp' on Google or something to find the plugin.

[raf]

oh, that's great, i just got the plugin, it's better quality than the mp3 i made.

thanks!

[Mirsathia]

:) No problem at all!

[ed]

what's the thing about removing the vocals?
the vocals sounds great!!! :o

[Mirsathia]

;) It doesn't save over the mp3 permanently, it's just a plugin so that one can listen to Jeff's beauuutiful voice! <purr>

[Plastic_hero]

wow, I tested that vocal remover and it's absolutely wonderful! :o
I almost started to cry when I heard Jeff's voice that clearly in the end of the song (or the middle or whatever). It' so darn great! :)

Thanks a load for the tip! :)

[William]

is the rest of the album any good?

[henrikhhh]

btw, isn't sky above, mud below some old war movie or something?
