[COVER] Demon Hunter – My Heartstrings Come Undone

I’ve thought about it, and this is the safe medium I’ll be using for my recording videos…I would have used YouTube or Vimeo, or those other social media sources, but in the end I feel the most comfortable knowing I’m not a “YouTube attention whore” by posting my videos there. What would be the point of me putting them there anyway? just to share with the world and hopefully fill my head up with positive comments from strangers across the world, increasing my pride and destroying the humbleness within me. Of course, people could just say I do a shit job, and that would be that.

Either way, here’s my first video…untouched other than for putting the song title and artist. It’s called “My Heartstrings Come Undone” by metal band Demon Hunter, and was written by lead vocalist Ryan Clark toward his wife. I’ll be doing an audio recording of this sometime with my signature alternate vocals (just like the original) and song elongation. Would you be interested in a video of that too?

[LIVE] Taste of Spring 09

As a celebration of the Victoria Day weekend, Jaffray held a “Taste of Spring” community event which featured food, a jumping castle (!!!), live music and…dancing lessons! All proceeds went to the upcoming community children day camp, and it was a very beautiful sunny day. The strictly audio portion of this post is sourced from my Creative ZMP and will be noticeably louder than the videos, due to the fact that the player was in my jacket pocket during the entire recording. Video was shot on a Samsung MX20 in native MP4 format, but has been converted to FLV for your viewing pleasure. Videos in the original source can be found at my Vimeo account. And for the first time ever…both FLV and audio can be streamed on the blog (thanks to Embedded Video and Audio Player) — I’ll get on my own player when I’m not busy anymore (as if). Note: To download MP3s on a PC, right-click and click “Save As”

The band consisted of:

  • Melissa Kwan – Female lead vocals
  • Herman Mo – Acoustic guitar, male lead vocals
  • Charmaine Wong – Drums
  • Carl Wong – Bass
  • Adwin Lam – Electric guitar

Special mention to Stephen Chan as our ending drummer.
