Although Sibelius is not the program I would use to notate your material, I have had plenty of experience transcribing whole albums before, note for note, and including every instrument (refer to my posts on "Animals as Leaders" and "Sikth" discography) along with other paid work to transcribe...
I have never heard of this band, but as a fellow transcriber,
I can completely respect and appreciate the work that went into this.
Let me be the first to say, awesome work man. :yesway:
I can most definitely do it. I have transcribed the entire Sikth discography as well as the first Animals as Leaders album by ear. I could get these done for ya. Email me: [email protected]
I'm up way too late... decided to help you out here. Here are the arpeggios Rick is doing in his ESP demo along with the Chord. It's a very fun lick, ENJOY!
Going to need alternate picking and string skipping to nail this one!
Haha, was kinda hoping for a little feedback from a few of you by now, but its all good! Anyone get a chance to try out the tabs? Which is your favorite to see notated?
I wasn't too sure how posting on this site quite worked, I thought if I made a post here, everyone on the site saw it. I didn't wanna piss off any mods by posting about SikTh too much. lol
EDIT: NM, you said on Facebook!
Today is a very bitter sweet day for me, as of today, I will have completed a project I have been working on for many years. My favorite band SikTh has had very few transcriptions of their work, and the ones that were floating around on the internet were not very good. I made it my mission to...
Okay guys, this is the last run of everything before I release the notation. I would like to have someone try out the fingerings for some of the songs to test the practicality of my work on these. Are there any guitarists that would like to give a rough try of a few tabs and give me some...
Hmm, I gotta say the hardest songs to work out had to be "If you weren't so perfect" and "How May I help You" due to their obvious sporadic nature and tempo changes without a click track. Believe it or not, "Skies of the Millennium Night" was the first SikTh song I ever notated 6 years ago lol...
Okay so, I am one song away from finishing up this project. I underestimated how much time it would take, but it is nearly done. I want to remind everyone what exactly I have done. I notated out everything my ears could pick up from countless playbacks and tried to compile the most accurate tabs...
Thanks man! This project has allowed me to critically study their musical idioms and apply it to my music. Most people already know by default how amazing their musicianship is, but to see it laid out notated really allows you to see how well their relationship is. Every note is carefully...
Oh most definitely my fellow bass player.
I will also upload them in one big RAR file when they are finished to this thread. I plan on making some bass play throughs myself once this project is finished. You can already find my transcriptions of DEATH OF A DEAD DAY
here along with Philistine...
Oh believe me I know how much of a monster Foord is...
I have more than enough evidence to suggest that they didn't use a click track when recording. I would just love to hear it from the horses mouth, ya know. I am almost done guys. Keep checking back. I will have this finished and uploaded soon.
