From their Subterranean Jungle album. I'm sorry to say that this will be my last drum video ever. I've given my drumkit to my son and I won't be playing anymore. It's been fun and I thank all of you loyal subscribers! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgHGBGAL0Go
A song I wrote in the eighties when I played in Durango. I wrote it in 5 minutes, just before going off to the rehearsal room. It's weird that sometimes a song comes up just like that and with others you're working on it for weeks.
Durango was a Ramones type punkband. We played half originals and half covers. Covers were mostly all songs of the first album of the Kids (Belgium).
I recorded two vocal tracks and three guitar tracks. The extra guitar is just in the beginning and the bridge parts. Programmed drums and bass in Reason. Captured my vocals and guitar with my Edirol soundcard and mixed everything in Cool Edit.
I tried to do some effects in Sony Vegas. My son wanted to see his head explode. I found this tutorial from Little Rich. http://www.youtube.com/user/richw4 He has great tutorials on some Vegas effects.
The fire, exploding head and blood came from http://www.detonationfilms.com They have a lot of effects you can download for free.
The exploding head didn't come out great, you can see lots of mismatched stuff. I shouldn't have filmed my son so close to that background coz of the shadows.
The split screen also comes from Little Rich's tutorials.

This was the first song I ever learned to play on the guitar :-)
In the seventies I bought the first record of the Dickies and they covered Paranoid. Man, that guitar was brutal on their version. And it was twice as fast as the original from Black Sabbath.
When I had recorded everything I tried to do the solo but after 50 takes I gave up. I really can't do solos. So I asked Glake ( http://www.youtube.com/user/stoptherobot ) if he could do the solo for me, since he's a big Sabbath fan. Man, did he ever come up with a solo! It's a mix between the Dickies solo and the Black Sabbath solo. It really sounds great!
The drums and bass are done in Reason. Mixed everything in Cool Edit and did the video in Sony Vegas.

It has a wallpaper of the Ramones ofcourse :-)
If you wanna support me, download the paid version too, which is just $2.99
That one you can download too in Google's Play Store:
