OK, today’s topic : Bootlegging.
If you’re over 30 bootlegging means taping a concert on a crappy little recorder you sneaked through security. The quality was usually awful and the band sounded like they were singing with tights over their heads. If they DID have tights over their heads you should see someone.
Bootlegging today means taking an acapella version of a song and laying it over a ‘classic’ instrumental.
The most famous is probably the Sugarbabes “Freak like me” which features them singing over a Gary Numan track.
The most popular though is Eminem’s “Without me”. Boom Selection currently has over 30 of these uploaded with another 55 or so to come.
My favourite is possibly “Without Wings”, Eminem over Wings “Stupid Love Songs” although the Eminem vs The Pot Black Theme Tune deserves a mention ;-)
Take a look at the main site here as well for other tracks and news.
Also, Dsico has a stack of stuff, how-to’s and even an album release (Ok, it’s a home burnt CD).
Hello to Donna, who was chatting with me last night in the pub about all this sort of stuff.
Er, that’s about it. Ordered my GF4 Ti4200 yesterday, should be fitting early next week. Will let you know how easy/difficult it is.
