Pink Floyd’s “Animals” (8-bit Cover Album)

Before huge hits like “The Wall” and after “The Dark Side of the Moon” and “Wish You Were Here” there falls the 1977 album “Animals.”  This has always been my favorite Pink Floyd album.  The 17-minute song “Dogs” is my favorite by the band, a blending of Gilmour and Waters’s contributions, mashing up multiple songs and ideas into one.  This was the hardest track to recreate as it contains numerous tempo changes.  This is some of David Gilmour’s finest playing and it is impossible to capture that feeling and style with 8-bit synths.  I ended up having to play drums along to the song then move the drum hits around manually to lock them directly to the beat, recording each fill individually and manipulating it.  At the end of the day I’m happy with the result especially since there were multiple times I was about to give up thinking this entire project was just going to be impossible.

  1. We would also like to convey that most individuals that find themselves without the need of health insurance can be students, self-employed and people who are out of work. More than half in the uninsured are under the age of Thirty five. They do not experience they are wanting health insurance as they are young in addition to healthy. Their particular income is generally spent on housing, food, and entertainment. Many people that do go to work either entire or in their free time are not given insurance via their work so they proceed without because of the rising tariff of health insurance in america. Thanks for the concepts you reveal through this site.
