k... here's my idea:
Find a common multi-track recording program which a few interested people could buy/download. I play guitar so I could lay down a guitar track or two or three.
Since I don't own a drum set or a bass and my voice sounds like a mule being punched in the... anyways, I can't sing, I send the file to someone who plays drums or bass or sings. They add their track and bingo bango - We record some hip songs!!! Could be fun and intesting.
Let me know what you think or email me and maybe we can start pounding out some details.

I'll throw my hat in on this as an instrumentalist, too. Name a song, i'll try to do some backing track for you.

I'll chip in with editing/mixing.
And I can play guitar... but not very well - electric or acoustic.
I'm sure with some creative editing I could sound like I know what I am doing.
Let's pick an easy song to start, and maybe this thing will gain momentum as the base tracks get shared.

If I can get hold of a decent mike I'd be up for vocalising on some tracks... and in fact I'm looking to get a mike anyway, for a project with a buddy of mine :thumb:

if you only want to do recording on a computer with a mic, I'd reccomend the Samson USB condenser mic. It's very simple to use, and it makes a nice clean signal that does a good job for demoing vocals on a computer.

I can provide handclaps, and would be more than willing to supply banana shaking :-)

OK... let's pick two songs; one rocker, and one "balled"
My choices: Fiddler's Green and Family Band as performed by The Hip Fan Band.
