HPN Does Iron Man Numbers (2010): Now Available.

[Architecture]

the botanical illustrations version of streets of philadelphia is the best track by a mile. dragon jeans, what the hell. give me a radio edit of that shit, man.

[dragon jeans]

Sorry, I like to let things "breathe" and "simmer."

[Architecture]

i listened for one minute and skipped the other seven. fucking boring, man.

[dragon jeans]

You hurt my feelings.

[Architecture]

well, give me the radio edit and i'll listen to it. i could maybe do 5 minutes. but by a minute in, even blue monday's doing something.

[dragon jeans]

I'm not too worried about it.

However, What A Feeling, Profondo Rosso Theme, Preciso Me Encontrar, and For Your Eyes Only are very legitimately enjoyable.

This is the best comp so far, imo.

edit - I guess I was referring to just the first disc. There's some good stuff on the 2nd disc but the 1st is pretty uniformly good.

[glock mane]

thanks man i transposed the midi to actual notation so i could do that ish analogue

[sympathy]

I was going to name some favorites but there are too many. maybe it stood out because it was at the end but I really enjoyed the execution on 'uninvited.'

thanks for putting this together zurich.

its good but consarnit its loud

[fresh salad]

Contristo yours was an 11th hour removal and honestly I felt terrible about it, because it was on every itteration but the last.

Fun fact: for to eyes only was the very last track submitted (last night), and I invite fresh salad to talk about his computer problems.

DL'ing now...

Man, I don't know what is going on, but last time we did this, I was bouncing down the finished track, and my fucking HD crashed, HARD.
I threw it away, and I used a previous (inferior IMO) version.
THIS time, I had some fucking fire wire error... it would still show up on the desktop, but I couldn't access it.
I brought it to the Apple store, and they at least got that song of the drive for me.
It was nowhere near finished the way I wanted it to be, but fuck it, I sent it anyway (THANKS ZURICH!)
THE HIPINION COMP CURSE!

[yukon]

jeeeeeesus, these turned out really well.

EDIT: just got to Son Of A Preacher Man and I lost it. pretty funny.

[legibet]

Excited to hear this. It's downloaded and ready to go. But I can't find my headphones, also can't find my mic. I'm a mess in terms of music making/appreciating these days. Will listen belatedly, will maybe even make an entry belatedly. Here's my preemptive "good job everyone" because I like this place and the talented people on here.

[glock mane]

damn sultanpepper's track is some heat

oh wait two people did this track

[baba o rly]

we here in the Disc 2 Ghetto of Suck appreciate the recognition

[barbara_h]

sweet! i'm downloading it now, looks promising!

[glock mane]

fresh salad is a girl!? her posts struck me as so sarcastic and masculine...

[barbara_h]

After one first quick listen (i'm late for work) "My Favourite Things" and "For Your Eyes Only" are brilliant. "For Your Eyes Only" makes a perfect closer.

[glock mane]

flex nuts track is bizarre and awesome

[iambic]

brahahaha, I am the opening track

I was convinced it'd be flushed to the second disc

[iambic]

Erik 'Joy' is apposite

thanks guys.

loud is what i was going for i think, wanted to make it sort of overwhelming. next time i guess i'll have to more obviously "call it" or whatever--i think i'd said something about doing it early in this one & in the other thread. no big deal though, i feel like both turned out.

[Erik Joy]

holy shit for your eyes only I'm glad I didn't do it

yeah sorry about that, when i saw your post i was already done with it (i sent mine quite early as well) and i agree about yours being very good, i like the jesu vibe, it fits the song quite well

[barbara_h]

holy shit for your eyes only I'm glad I didn't do it

i'm glad i didn't do flashback, that climax in the end is awesome and feels totally natural too, good job

[Erik Joy]

also, zurich, bang-up job on compilation, dude. very smooth

[paul]

would not be surprised if dragon jeans' track gets forkcasted later this week

[iambic]

yeah, that's one of the few I'd listen to outside the context of it being a fun hipinion comp

I'm really sorry yours didn't make the proper comp, dude. In one sequencing, I had the thing ending and beginning with streets of philadelphia but I just couldn't make it work. both tracks were very good and I didn't want to leave one off, but in the end it didn't make sense.

[Zurich]

brahahaha, I am the opening track

yeah to be honest, I knew I'd blow some minds with this/make some folks scratch their heads, but I thought it worked really well and liked your track alot.

oh and if anyone is wondering:

I scrapped my cover of There She Goes by the La's becuase my computer couldn't handle the overdubs I wanted to do. It ended up being very by the numbers and only had lead guitar in the first verse.
