#Straturday - Not angry, just disappointed...

I've been playing around with this new software Ripx that pulls apart the tracks of a song allowing you to create your own backing tracks and while it works quite well... it kind of doesn't.

There always seems to be a lot of bleeding across tracks. Especially when there are two instruments playing similar notes. I find that particularly bad with rock tracks where the bass and guitar play similar riffs.

The other thing it seems to do with a vocal track is leave it kind of washy as if there is a phaser effect on it.

I thought I'd give this song a try. It's a late nighties tune from a UK band called Reef. They were mildly big over hear with this song but fizzled out after. The singer has a great rock voice. Kind of Credence Clear Water Revival - John Fogerty like.

The backing track turned out alright, but NQR... A lot of the keyboard parts bled into guitar track and o was removed in the backing track. I really like the song, so I ended up buying it from Karaoke Version for a couple of bucks.

No solos (certainly not a 'still got the blues' track that I'm supposed to be working on but am not...) just a few chords and some cool riffs.

Enjoy!
