Steemit Open Mic Week 77 - Land Of Confusion - Genesis (acoustic cover)

in openmic •  7 years ago  (edited)


Hey everyone! Well, here's my first entry... And since this is an "open mic" I thought I'd try a song I've never done before. I've been playing with this tune for a while, with the band, but we've yet to perform it live. Not sure if this solo-acoustic version will properly deliver my vision for it, but hopefully you'll get the idea. :)

With everything going on out there in this crazy world right now, this just feels like the perfect time to play this song. Thank you so much for listening. ❤️

yesss ! I love that song , you did it very great ! i really enjoyed it ! btw.. how do you make the little camera do those rotation ninja moves :p ! Welcome to the open mic family!

Thank you! I’m so happy you enjoyed it. 😀
The camera Is attached to a motorized slider. I use it for videography work... commercials, interviews, etc. I just recently started experimenting with it for my garage sessions. I’m gonna call it my video ninja from now on! 😜

Great minds ask alike!!!

this was awesome my friend absolutely thrilled to hear your performance this week. nailed it

Thank you so much! So glad you liked it. Working on an original for the next one... :)

Sounds really good man. Hope to hear more from you soon.

I like the background, gives meaning to the term "garage rock" :-)

That's MY brother! Woot! Danny you killed it ! I'm really going to enjoy watching people swoon over you this week. sits back and waits
Welcome to steemit!!! ♥

p.s. how do you make the camera sweep back and forth like that? it makes me kind of dizzy in a good way.

Here's how it's supposed to go, with the slider and the 2nd camera angle idea:

Oh I love! Awesome song danny! I like the slider:) I think i like it even better without the fade outs but i am a simpleton as you know 🤓

Haha! It's a motorized slider. I use it for videography stuff. I had it set to slide too fast, it's supposed to be slower and less obvious. And it looks nicer when you've got a second camera angle to cut to.... But ain't nobody got time for that today! :)

Thank you SO MUCH for all your guidance, expertise, and motivation! ❤️

Well you are so welcome!I know everything there is to know about steemit. There's nothing I don't know. I'm brilliant. 😹

Nice cover of this Genesis song!
And I do like the fancy film work too. Gives it visual movement whilst you're creating sonic beauty!
Rock on, buds!
