I did not wake up this morning and went, “Ah, I am going to make a video blog today”. Our new drummer Wieke has made a request to play No Doubt’s “Hella Good” as she wishes to - in her own words - implement some of the ideas or techniques into our band’s materials. So I spent some time last week to learn the song. Boy, I am really not good at playing cover songs at all. But I guess it is one for all, all for one. <br /><br />Cynthia, our talented bassist, has decided to put aside part of her Sunday to figure out how Tony Kanal plays the bass line. And I said to myself, why not make a video out of this little insignificant day of ours? And we did jam on the National Day holiday after all - even if just the two of us. <br /><br />OK. This version you see is not final. The original intend is to record our interpretation of “Hella Good”, shoot it over to Wieke and Jason to do their parts. On a side note, recording the acoustic sound of the Indonesian Gendang was not easy. I think it turns out OK. We joke that this version should be named as “The Voodoo Mix”. The sound is so tribal! <br /><br />http://www.WilfridWong.com
