Selected Inbreds MP3's

Matterhorn - Live at the Odeon - MP3

Highlights - Recorded live at the Odeon club in Cleveland, Ohio in the summer of 1995. This version of the song from the Hilario CD was a favourite show opener for many years. Thanks to the Tragically Hip for helping us catch this one on their primo recording rig.

 

The Prince Remix - Hilario - MP3

Highlights - This is a remix of the first song from our first tape, 'Darn Foul Dog'. The Hilario CD is a compilation of several of our first recordings. The original version is on the CD, but Mike recorded this one by himself using pots and pans to create a completely different effect.

 

Derailleur - Brave New Waves Session - MP3

Highlights - CBC's late night music show, Brave New Waves, was always a great supporter of the band. Recorded at a session in their Montreal studios, this version of the song from Hilario has a slightly more polished sound. This was one of the first times for the band in a really serious studio, but the results may reflect the unique influence of the old-school CBC engineer running the show.

 

The Any Sense of Time Remix - Kombinator- MP3

Highlights - When the band signed a U.S. record deal, the first thing they wanted to see was a 'radio ready' version of 'Any Sense of Time' from the Kombinator record. This would involve getting a remix put together from one of several producers considered including Andy Wallace and the Dust Brothers. We made the decision to go with Jim Rondinelli because of his work with Matthew Sweet. The resulting track was used for the video for this song, and appeared on our UK single.

 

Don't Try So Hard - Kombinator - MP3

Highlights - This is the regular version of the song available on the album. Recorded on Tuesday, August 2, 1994, this marked a turning point in the making of this record. After a couple days of spinning wheels, this song set the tone for a night of recording that would yield final versions of 'Any Sense of Time', 'You Will Know', 'Kombinator', 'Dangerous', and 'Turn My Head'.

 

Round 12 (Live in Calgary - Feburary 1997) - Kombinator - MP3

Highlights - This is a great live version of this song recorded during the band's winter tour with the Rheostatics in 1997. For this tour, the Rheostatics brought a full multi-track recording system that allowed them to create their 'Double Live' album. For most nights, the tapes were running when The Inbreds played as well, and this song was captured thanks to the efforts of Mr. Don Kerr.

 

Wind Picks Up - It's Sydney or the Bush - MP3

Highlights - This is the regular version of the song available on the album. This song was the subject of an aborted attempt at a third video from this record. The footage of three-legged racing that formed the basis for the clip may yet see the light of day.

 

Reason Why I'm Shy - It's Sydney or the Bush - MP3

Highlights - This is the regular version of the song available on the album. Obscure reference here is that the drum loop at the beginning of the song was created by DJ Moves, from Hip Club Groove, after feeding a clip of Mike playing a toy drum kit into his old school sampler.

 

Never Be The Same (Remix) - Winning Hearts - MP3

Highlights - This version of the song is the product of a rainy afternoon when Dave was alone with the mixing board and master reels at the Gas Station. This version gives a good chance to hear the sound of the studio piano being plucked like a huge xylophone.

 

Right Time to Say Goodbye Remix- Winning Hearts- MP3

Highlights - This song is another alternate resulting from Dave's session with the Gas Station board. A phantom drum track on this song gave the very desirable echo effect that was straight out of the Jimmy Page trickbook. Pure luck.
