Feel so Low revamped

I had a discussion with a friend , that sparked off this blog. Upon hearing one of my recently recorded songs, he said something to the effect of 'Why don't you come over to my place and record it, we can mix it better and put in some effects'. (He's got a sweet studio!). That got me thinking , if I could select a song I'd recorded earlier , knowing what I now know , could I record and mix a better version really fast? I set myself a goal of one hour to re-record my cover version of Feel so low. The first one was recorded after a night-out with my friends, I was quite sleepy , had a terrible mike and it was kind of my first attempt at recording a song. Here's version 2.0 of the song of which I'm quite proud. The guitar and the vocals were finished in a couple of hours and the Strings in Ableton and final mixing took me an hour more. Please do comment if you like it :)

Starch Dye

This is my cover of Stars Die by Porcupine Tree. I just love this song. For some reason, I imagine an alien life-form trying to reach out to earth, when I hear it. Here's my cover. It's not the complete song. Just part of the original.
