The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Always There - Solo trumpet with accomp.

Hey all!

More instrumental LBT songs!  Here's "Always There" on a solo 'trumpet'. :)
I think it came out pretty dang awesome, I must say!

Hope you like it!

(I apologize for the slight background noise.  IN order to capture the background music I had to use my cheap-o sound card, which introduces some hissing unfortunately.  It's pretty minor though.  You can really only hear it when there isn't any music playing.)

To Mumbling: I'll probably end up doing a trumpet thing of some sort for your song.

To Adam: I think you may like the sound of this one.  I was messing around with stereo separation and reverb.  I may have gone a little too hard on both but I'm still experimenting.  ;)

Trumpet, eh?  I've wanted to pick up the real deal, myself...  I don't have the time - or currently, the speakers - to listen to it, but, hey man, I'd love to hear this sometime!

I actually don't even own a trumpet, nor have I picked one up since high school. :p  I may try playing again someday, but not until I move out.
I actually performed this song on a virtual trumpet, playing on a keyboard.  The melody was played with the right hand, while my left hand was controlling knobs and wheels to add in the expression. :)
Some of the legato stuff, especially near the end, is a bit sloppier than it probably should be.  Coordinating the two hands when only one of them is actually playing notes is a little tricky!  :lol If I did this again, I'd try to play it a little more nicely but I'm really happy with this one, really!

*really needs to get an expression foot pedal controller for his keyboard!* :P:

Okay...here we go...
Oh, by the way...you may want to stand off to the side when you see it flying at you.  Attempting to catch something that I threw from 12,000 kms away may result in.....well let's just say I'm not liable for any damages. :p :lol  :lol
