After a couple of weeks without participating in the Hive Music Festival due to time constraints, I'm back again to share some music here. I know I won't be able to keep up with the cycle, but I still wanted to record something, and I think this is the right community to show off this bass cover. For the past couple of weeks, my wife has been listening to Linkin Park's “The Emptiness Machine” quite often, and in that sense, it was inevitable that it would get stuck in my head. Anyway, it's a song that I really like, and I think the band showed themselves in the right light with this single when they returned to the scene.
We all know what happened to the band and the tragic death of Chester. After that, it seemed impossible that they would relaunch, considering the fundamental and unique role of the late vocalist. However, I think the band made a very interesting and bold decision to bring in Emily Armstrong as a replacement, And well, it seems that it wasn't a random choice, since the entire album “From Zero” has been a huge success. The band is once again filling stadiums around the world, and in that sense, it seems that everything is back to normal.
Luego de un par de semanas sin participar en el Hive Music Festival por motivos de tiempo, vuelvo nuevamente para compartir algo de música por aquí, sé que no cumpliré con el ciclo, pero de igual manera quise grabar algo y creo que esta es la comunidad adecuada para mostrar éste cover de bajo. Desde hace un par de semanas mi esposa viene escuchando “The Emptiness Machine” de Linkin Park con bastante frecuencia y en ese sentido era inevitable que no se metiera en mi cabeza, y bueno, de igual manera es una canción que me gusta mucho, creo que la banda se mostró de manera correcta con éste single cuando volvieron al ruedo.
Ya todos sabemos lo que pasó con la banda y el trágico fallecimiento de Chester, luego de eso parecía imposible que se diera un relanzamiento considerando la función fundamental y única del fallecido vocalista, sin embargo, creo que la banda tomó una decisión bastante interesante y osada al integrar a Emily Armstrong como sustituta, y bueno, parece que no fue algo producto del azar ya que el disco completo “From Zero” ha sido todo un éxito, la banda de nuevo esta llenando estadios por todo el mundo y en ese sentido parece que todo volvió a la normalidad.
Lyrics
Your blades are sharpened with precision (precision) Flashing your favorite point of view (point of view) I know you're waiting in the distance (distance) Just like you always do, just like you always do
Already pulling me in Already under my skin And I know exactly how this ends, I
Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hoping for what I won't receive Falling for the promise of the emptiness machine The emptiness machine
Going around like a revolver (like a revolver) It's been decided how we lose (how we lose) 'Cause there's a fire under the altar (the altar) I keep on lying to, I keep on lying to
Already pulling me in Already under my skin And I know exactly how this ends, I
Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hoping for what I won't receive Falling for the promise of the emptiness machine
I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part of, part of I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part of, part of I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part
I let you cut me open just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hoping, so fucking naive Falling for the promise of the emptiness machine The emptiness machine
(I only wanted to be part of something) the emptiness machine, oh (I only wanted to be part of) the emptiness machine
To record this bass cover I downloaded the song from the band's official Youtube channel, then, I used the Moises application to remove the original bass line, that way I could record a completely clean line. I applied a couple of effects to give prominence to the bass since it is obviously the central element in my performances, but I tried not to overdo it in modifying the original sound previously recorded. I hope my presentation this week is to everyone's liking, I really like to humbly share my bass covers with the community, best regards!
Para grabar éste cover de bajo descargué la canción del canal oficial de Youtube de la banda, luego, usé la aplicación Moises para eliminar la línea de bajo original, de esa forma pude grabar una línea completamente limpia. Apliqué un par de efectos para dar protagonismo al bajo ya que evidentemente es el elemento central en mis presentaciones, pero traté de no exagerar en modificar el sonido original previamente grabado. Espero que mi presentación de ésta semana sea del agrado de todos, de verdad me gusta compartir humildemente mis covers de bajo con la comunidad. ¡Un fuerte abrazo!
