Well I was going to submit a cello one, but I only got as far as the first two minutes (passion intro). Check it out: http://ieng9.ucsd.edu/~bpezzner/Warehouse-1.mp3

I couldnt dig the accapella one as much cause I kept picturing carlton from the "Fresh Prince" dancing as i was listening to it.

Swede- A very well done rhythm track but where are the vocals?

Ben- I can't even begin to understand how you go about doing shit like this. Really awesome. The "I'll fade away..." transition was particularly cool. Only critisism is the lead vocal sounded a bit too nasal.

Graves- I think this is the most solid as far as the guitar goes. I really dug the second guitar track. The vocals were good but a bit inconsistant at times.

Mitch- Definately the best vocal. I'm really impressed. Great playing and recording ta boot. The only problem I could hear is that the vocals were a little muddy. You do these great runs that kinda got lost in the mix.

Michael- Absolutely sick intro. I laughed at first and then I was like "this is amazing". The vocals had some issues but you get an A for effort.

My vote goes to Mitch because his voice really blew me away but you all did a great job. Thanks for sharing.

my decision was based purely on who played the main riff the most accurately, so my vote goes to Mike (with graves as a close second). but you still song about as well as I do Mike :P

Nice work everyone but my vote goes to blanketdog.

Apps, the way you say...''leave your sites oooon".. beautiful.
Your voice absolutely kicks ass. You have some really controlled vibrato going on throughout. Fantastic.
The intro was perfect and the Louie Louie outro made me smile my ass off.

Well done dude.. without a doubt, the best warehouse cover i've heard.

thanks guys for you who told me what they liked and what i could improve.

mwr, i'd love to hear some suggestions on how to fix the vocals. is it an effect or volume or does my mic suck or is it my voice? either way i'd love to fix it.

as far as the guitar goes i know my playing wasn't up to par, that's why i focused so much on vocals. i learned warehouse after we announced that we were doing it for the contest so i kinda mucked it up a bit.

anyway, thanks again guys for the responses.
