Description : As the title suggests its a cover of House of the rising sun.
I should mention this was done on my old set up, so no mixer. All direct to pc.

Edit* just a quick Wow! to how well this has been received. Thanks :)

I like your slightly lo fi but up to date take on this classic! The guitar and vocals are both quite good! Very interesting rhythms, but they totally work! Jammin cover!

This is a great job,especially considering your setup. Reminds me of the way Moby would have done this song. Almost sounds like Moby singing.

An origional take on an old classic. The beat pattern is border lining on D&B. I like that idea. One thing that slightly puzzles me is that going through your tracks your clearly a rock fan. So i'm just wondering how come you ended up doing a dance show?
Anyway, Great track.

Ha Ha, yes it must seem odd. Long story short, I learned to play guitar when I was younger and my Dad was (is) a DJ. I was always helping him so learned his trade too. Then I became a club/rave DJ in the 90's. Then BOOM! Family time...3 kids later I started strumming on the guitar more. Then an opportunity came up for radio DJ so I went for it.
As you can see I don't try and confine myself to one style so Rock, trance, dub, its all good my friend. Thanks for the comment, hope my reply helps.

I used an acapella by RayKoefoed - The Sum Of A Body ( LM ), actually just one verse.
I need a rest :)
