Hey hey. I need some background vocals for the title track of my next album (Out of It). I kinda want it to have a singalong vibe. Instead of just going to some of my singing buddies I thought it’d be fun to try opening it up to anyone out there.
So here’s the unfinished song with rough vocals:
How to play along at home:
1. Record yourself singing along with this song as best you can. It doesn’t have to be the greatest quality, but try to keep clipping/distortion & mic pops to a minimum. Note: I need a recording of only your singing to be able to mix you in.
2. Upload your audio files to ccMixter.org under an Attribution Creative Commons license (which gives anyone permission to use your vocals as long as they give you credit). Please tag the file with “outofit”. Update: ccMixter has a submit form specifically for this. If you’re logged in, go here.
Deadline: Monday, October 15th Sunday, November 11th.
What’s in it for you: If I use your vocals I’ll credit you in the liner notes for the song and ship you out a free copy of the record when it’s done. Woo!
Thank you! (You can see the submissions so far here.)
Update: fieryprophet has mixed all the vocals as of October 16th, check it out [5mb mp3].
I would have put it through some cleaning up, but I didn’t know if you had your own mixing process so I figured I let you do your magic instead. If it’s not clean enough, drop me an email and I’ll try a better take.
