Sonic Squirrels (need votes)

[Architect]

Sonic Squirrels are an alternative rock/pop/something duo, one of whom I happen to know in real life. He's allowed us to have some stems for Phase Shift, but I want to know which songs you guys would like to chart first.

Here is their website, where you can listen to all of their songs. They have a wide range of styles, and I'd like to choose three that are somewhat different from each other, if possible.

VOTES:

(3) Mechanical Fangs
(0) Building Up
(3) Girls Gone Wild (remix of Conshafter) Voting on this song postponed.
(0) I Only Want You if You're Free
(0) Back in the Building
(2) Drum n Bass
(4) My Only Heaven
(0) Radio Melon
(1) Someday Maybe
(4) Take it From the Top

Everyone can vote on three songs each. I've voted for my personal favorites already.

nice, my votes are for:

girls gone wild remix
drum n bass
take it from the top

[asskickulater]

I agree with choosing 3 with different styles, I'll need to listen to them later

I still need to listen to these, haven't had a chance yet but just a note on the song Girls Gone Wild, is this is a remix of one of their own songs?

I need to look into it but I guess it is highly likely remixes would fall under the same rules as covers, ie. the original song artists would need to agree as well as the person who worked on the remix so they are a little trickier to handle, if the original song is by someone else that we can't gain permission from people might want to pick a backup option

Hmm, good point--I'm actually not sure how that would work out. It's a remix/cover of a song by Conshafter, which Rob and Dave of Sonic Squirrels used to be part of. However, Rob left the band six years ago, and Dave left when the remaining members split up last year.

So basically I don't know how that would work out. I could ask Rob Teague about it, and I was thinking of inquiring about Conshafter stems as well, so there may be some way to get it done. But for now, I think it'd be safe to have JD and I pick backups.

[knapman [FD]]

my picks would be

mechanical fangs
someday maybe
girls gone wild - or my only heaven as the alternate

C'mon, guys, we need votes! I want to get started on charting these.

[JD2504]

[Architect]

No, I haven't had a chance to talk to him yet, but I hopefully will soon.
