Just you and I, demo done with a friend

Here’s a demo (long and unedited) that me and a good friend of mine did when we were still in secondary school. His name is Ivan Roger Ongkili and this song was written and music is also by him. I just helped him with the harmony as well as the one-take recording from my trusted Sony mini compo. Since it’s only one take, that’s why the quality sounded a little bit better and clear. This was done in my parents home back in a place called ‘Kunak’ in Sabah.

After converting it to mp3 from the tape, I actually tweaked some equalizer and added some reverb effect. I regretted it now since I really think I should have kept it as normal as possible. There were some pitch problems here and there too. I think we recorded this ‘early’ morning.

There were other sounds too like dog bark, (our dog which I forgot the name) and some lighter sounds from our buddy Jai. He also sang some at the back ground. Oh, also expect some snorting sounds. I think we were having flu or something..

The guitar used was my trusted Fender Strat-Mexican made.

    Woofie? Yeah… must be him or the other dog who always bites people that passes the house.
    Ivan is in Kota Kinabalu. Last I heard he was attached to Pizza Hut. Not sure about now.
    I was told about that too but as usual I don’t really understand how.
