UNLIKELY DUETS!

Over the years there has been many duets, some being really good & others, well... didn't really work out. Recently there was a duet between METALLICA & LADY GAGA at the Grammy Awards. I'll be honest i wasn't to sure about this, when i first heard about it. After watching the performance i think Lady Gaga has got a strong powerful voice & it did kinda work.

Here are some other unlikely duets:

  • SKIN (SKUNK ANANSIE) & PAVAROTTI- Both very talented singers. In a strange way this duet did work. Skin really can hit those high notes

  • LINKIN PARK & JAY Z- I'll be honest i like Linkin Park & i really didn't like the duet they did with Jay-Z. It was a 6-track EP. Honestly for me, i didn't work. I was disappointed with it

  • NICK CAVE & KYLIE MINOGUE- Apparently, Nick Cave had wanted to write a song for Kylie for a few years. It wasn't until he wrote: 'Where the wild roses grow' did he feel this would be a good song for Kylie to sing. This song was somewhat different to what she is used to singing. Again, in a strange way i think it did work

  • BJORK & PJ HARVEY- In 1994 they did a duet at the Brit Awards, covering the song 'I can't get no satisfaction'. Honestly? I really don't like it at all. Both of them are very talented musicians. Did i get any satisfaction? No. Sorry


  • KLF & TAMMY WYNETTE- This was a bit of an unlikely duet. Tammy Wynette, a very well known country artist & KLF, an electronic band. On paper it kinda doesn't look like it would work. In a strange way, it did work. I remember first hearing this duet when i was around 11 or 12 & did like it. I still do in a way

  • ELTON JOHN & EMINEM- In 2001 they duetted at the Grammys. At the time people thought Eminem's lyrics were violent, homophobic and misogynistic and there was a protest outside the venue. However, i feel the duet did work
There are many other unlikely duets

Who would you like to see duet?

I think for me it would be: GENESIS P'ORRIDGE & BJORK. That to me would be an interesting duet. Whether it would work i don't know. Both are unique in their own way

Until next time

CUBASE & LOGIC PRO X- BYPASS ALL PLUGINS!

A few weeks ago someone posted in Facebook group about how to Bypass ALL plugins in Cubase 8.5. (As some of you may know i use Cubase 8.5 in the main studio). It's a lot quicker than turning off each individual plugin. Here's how to do this: CUBASE- Go to File  Key Commands  Mixer (Section) Bypass Inserts Type in box a key (e.g. B etc) Assign OK When you press that key all plugins should be bypassed on the mixer LOGIC PRO X- As far as i know at the moment you cannot just press one button/ key & turn all the plugins off simultaneously. You can row by row.  Here's a quick video tutorial : Hope this helps Until next time Law Official Website LW Music Services Twitter Facebook (Law) Facebook (LW Music Services) Youtube Instagram Soundbetter

FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK: JELLY CLEAVER

Hi! Everyone, this week's FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK is the very talented  singer-songwriter, musician  & producer JELLY CLEAVER JELLY CLEAVER Please introduce yourself I’m a singer-songwriter, jazz guitarist and producer. I’m also an activist and this really influences my music and the lyrics I write. I love lots of different genres so have quite an eclectic style and like to throw myself into different music scenes. I’m really into the jazz scene and the punk/DIY scene in London at the moment.   How did you get into music? I started playing guitar as soon as I could hold one pretty much because my dad was a guitar teacher, and I’ve always had a really deep connection to music. I’ve tried lots of different aspects of music out though, from leading an African singing and drumming ensemble to starting a rock band. I just love music in all its forms.   What instruments do you play? Guitar’s my first instrument but when I’m reco...

GRANDE ARTIST?

ARIANA GRANDE is no stranger to the charts. Recently ARIANA managed to get the top 1, 2 & 3 spots on the billboard top 100 charts simultaneously. The last time this happened was in 1964 by THE BEATLES who got all 5 top spots. At the moment 11 songs from her album 'Thank you, Next' album are in the top 40. (The only song from the album that hasn't made the top 40 is 'Make up'). DRAKE nearly managed this when 2 of his songs were at spots 1 & 2 & 4 simultaneously. That is a great achievement for ARIANA Until Next Time Law OFFICIAL WEBSITE LW MUSIC SERVICES  (Mixing & Mastering) TWITTER FACEBOOK (Law) FACEBOOK  (LW Music Services) FACEBOOK (The Solar project) YOUTUBE
