Taio Cruz x Ghost - Square Hammer/Break your Heart Mashup
I heard Taio Cruz' Break your Heart on the radio this morning and thought it sounded familiar.
It turns out that Square Hammer by Ghost is just goth Taio Cruz.
Don't believe me? Have a listen.

Wonderwall Bar Song (Shaboozy x Oasis Mashup)
Переглядів 105Місяць тому
Another mashup! This time of the classic Wonderwall and the modern Tipsy by Shaboozy. I'm not big on Oasis. I was always a Blur guy, but when I heard Shaboozys breakout hit for the first time I noticed the Wonderwall chord progression straight away.

On Your Espresso (Sabrina Carpenter x Busted Mashup)
Переглядів 295Місяць тому
A new mashup! I'm a little bit unsure of this one. But I thought it was worth exploring and worth sharing. And Sabrina Carpenter seems to have released the song of the summer. And Busteds On What You're On is the best song they ever released. and the both have a neat electronica vibe. Anyway, let me know what you think!
Fixing up this CHEAP Guitar
Переглядів 424Місяць тому
In this video I make a change to my 2004 Epiphone SG. I take the neck humbucker and replace it with a nice P90 I got for cheap. I actually lied a little bit and this isn't the first mod that I've made. I did actually reset the nut and replace the knobs, but I would say this is a fundamental rework of what the SG is. I'd you'd like to see me replace the tuners, let me know. They feel really bad!...
Def Leppard sound like a Tribute Band!

We've got another Release Radar Review for you this week. I hope you've been enjoying the mashups, they've been a lot of fun to do! In this weeks RRR though, we listen to Serj Tankian and his performance with The Cost. We also listen to Halestorm and I Prevail perform Can U see me in the Dark. That ones a banger. There's also a new Def Leppard song featuring Tom Morello in the mix too. And lots...

This week on the Release Radar review we check out the latest single from The Offspring ahead of their album later this year. We also learn that I'm apparently an Eminem superfan. There's a new tune from Snow Patrol in there too to make sure we have a daily recommended dose of Anthemic, Stadium Rock. And many more!

Irish Artist pMad - New Single "Missing"
Another great pod. Interesting guy.
@@jsteelester He's really interesting. I'm sure Ken could've gone on for longer!
Hey eoghan it is me maya
New SP is fire
@@Zen-yt8jj It sure is. The whole album is a great listen. Crazy well produced.
Great stuff. Noleen’s song is excellent.
@jsteelester She's brilliant John. An absolute gem of the Irish music industry.
🔥
@@zacdeverell You know it.
Yea, when I heard too sweet on the radio I was like, I heard this song before but not those words. Thanks for this mashup. I knew it was the same melody!
@@theviralusername Absolutely! It's so,so, similar.
F to your recommendations
@SpidercraftServer I appreciate you paying respects in this trying time.
This was killing me for weeks as a 40 year old. I was like... I've heard this band before.... You're the best
@ptmusc00 Thanks man! Glad I could help with the ear worm.
Sounds great.
I had a listen. It’s absolutely excellent. Fair play. Get yourself a distrokid account. It’s a cheap yearly fee, and you can upload as many songs as you want. Keep writing. You’re a gem.
@jsteelester Cheers John, you're very kind! I have a distrokid account. I just thought that this one wasn't quite to the standard to go up on the streaming services. But I may redo it. And congrats on Half Life and the screening! It's an excellent piece of work.
Just heard Too Sweet today for the first time. Took a few minutes, but finally realized... CRAZY!
@@beats_flows Absolutely. It's uncanny!
Yes!! What a trash rip off.
@@saramorgan8805 I'm sure it wasn't enormously intentional. But the parallels are there!
Myles Kennedy is quite simply , one hell of a talented musician, songwriter, and vocalist!💪
@@RB-oc7ti Aye, a lot of those around!
You're right, this fits! And On What Your On is definitely the best Busted song.
Phew! I'm glad it fits. There are parts that I was surprised at just how well it worked though!
'Tone' stickers by any chance?
@DMSProduktions Hey, Thanks for commenting! I don't quote get what you mean though. You mean on the knobs?
@@SonicChronicle LOL no, the stickers dude! ;o)
@@DMSProduktionseveryone knows that blur stickers give the best tone 👌🏻
@@Tcoldsteel WOO HOO!
Whomever would do that to a guitar with all those stickers needs to be in prison.
@RickNasty42069YOLO Hahaha! It's not for everyone certainly. It's one of those pop punk things that I did years ago. Inspired by Noodles from The Offspring.
I think it’s a right of passage as a teenager to have a guitar wrapped in stickers. Wish I kept mine😢
@@SearchingForTone That's it! That SG is definitely from a time in my life when Punk and Pop Punk had a real hold on me.
Great video and sounds great too. IDK that I've ever seen a P90 with that silver cover before, but it works so well as a HB replacement for Epiphone's naked HH's on the SG and LP models. The neck pickup on my old LP from when I was a teen around that same timeframe is SUPER wolfy and bassy so I may need to do something similar.
@sumias3042 Yeah, I was surprised with how good it sounds clean! Certainly not as bottom heavy in terms of sound. As I mentioned though, I do think it loses some of that clarity with High gain but that's to be expected somewhat. And for 50 quid for 2, a bit of a bargain
Good job bro. I just started soldering and this video helped.
@randyandamberthompson9972 Thanks Man! Glad to hear it was helpful!
If you like damien Dempsey featured on other songs , have a listen to “brave” by lethal dialect . Lovely chorus and outro . But his own music is incredible , he’s written some amazing songs and has a huge following, glad he’s gotten the success he deserves .
I'll need to give Brave a listen. I'm actually a Damo fan! I kinda lost track of him after To Hell or Barbados but I'm familiar with everything up to that. I still remember the first time I heard him on Other Voices back when it was actually about other voices. Excellent stuff. He played Negative Vibes. Teen me was enthralled. He doesn't get enough credit.
@@SonicChronicle oh yeah I remember that ! It was in a church in Kerry I think! Glen Hansard from the frames hosting . Quality .
@craighopkins1914 Aye! Other Voices used to be in that tiny church, St. James'. I don't know if it still is. I think it was John Kelly from Mystery Train presenting though. Anyway, it used to be great!
@@SonicChronicle I like the channel man gave you a sub !
@craighopkins1914 Cheers man! Much appreciated.
I was saying to herself, Houdini hits that millennial nostalgia like crazy.
It's so similar to some of his older stuff that it scratches that itch! I just can't believe I've listened to nearly all of his albums.
I thought the exact same! Thank you for this!
No problem!
It was indeed three times in a week and it was fucking amazing :D Would do it again
Thanks for outing yourself and not making me look like a complete fool!😂
THANK YOU! I have heard the "Too Sweet" song a million times when riding with my family and they listen to pop songs and I just started thinking it sounded like the Gnarls Barkley song.
And you were very much correct!
Omg! As soon as I heard the new Hozier song, I instantly and immediately thought of 'Crazy' by CeeLoo Green/Gnarles Barkley! :-0
I was the same! I thought it was pretty much identical. So I proved it!
Class bro! Would not be out of place as a doom metal song imo :)
I can hear it!
Great song
Thanks Man, I appreciate it.
Thanks for the review! Glad you liked it! 🎶
Massive love for this and the tag dude! Glad you loved the music video too and we'll take the torch for metal for a bit 😂 Oh and it's drop A we play in btw -;) 🙏🏻👊🏻🤘🏻🍻❤️🔥💀 #NoOnEcArEs! -;)
Drop A?! Gauge 18 strings all round! Anyway, I love it all! Ye're great. And at the very least, know that someone cares!
@SonicChronicle legend! Thank you dude, honestly appreciate it and we're just out here doing our thing, trying to help people, one song at a time! Be sure to checkout the other track we dropped with it called Caviar and Cigarettes if you haven't already? Aw man, we fucking care too!
@@BrokenJawUK Excellent Intel about the other song! I'll check it out!
@SonicChronicle anytime dude! Would love to know what you make of that one too!
Weirdly been listening to Bowling For Soup a lot again recently... Also check out some of Alex Winston's music videos from the past few years, there are some good ones given the relative lack of budget.
I went through a big Bowling for Soup phase not too long ago myself. I've also been following Alex's recent music. I agree that she's been doing a great job with the videos!
He totally an indie artist. You are hearing indie in everything he makes. Thanks for doing this. Thanks for supporting artists. That totally awesome of you. It reminds me of the things like Midnight oil that push in those hard core stories of the mess in this world. They do it in this stunning way. That makes you want to hear it again and again. Missing is like this song that like I’m making it. I got it. No one cares and no one sees me. Saying you can make it this world.
So wonderful!! Thank you so much!!
@@pMadtheband you are very welcome!
Wonderful!! Thank you so Sonic Chronicle for taking the time for the fab review and delighted you enjoyed pMad💓❤🖤
SAY IT AINT SO!!🤟
This a rerecording of a song from Incubus’s 4th studio album. Morning View
I really like it. Listen to 'so cold' too...also off the new upcoming album.
I'll give it a listen! Thanks!
I think i you would take the visualizer off and maybe you can focus on the music -- lol
Lee from Black Suit Youth kicks ass!!!!!!!! The whole band rocks!!!!!
I was very impressed for sure! Thanks for watching and for commenting!
I absolutly agree that Deryck looks healthier, I remember seeing his hospital photos and the infection/covid made him look really worn-out :/ Great to see that he is back with full health ❤❤
Always love to see people who have clearly been going through some manner of substance issue getting themselves back on track. Huge strength of character. Thanks for the comment Nat!
The interviews are great. I can send a few greats your way.
Thanks for the feedback John! I'll get in touch!
Is this reaction a joke..you have no idea what you are talking about clown
HAVE YOU WATCH SOME PEARL JAM LIVE CONCERTS? 😊🩷🤘✌️
@@laurawatters914 I watched more than half of the PinkPop 1992 concert and the Livin' in the Free World cover. I enjoyed myself, no shred though. A lot of pick raking over a wah pedal though.
@@laurawatters914 No worries! All good! It's worth pointing out that I never said he wasn't good. He is! He's just not a shredder. And that's okay! He plays for the song. Thanks for the comments and it was time well spent watching.
MIKE FREAKIN MCCREADY IS A INCREDIBLE LEAD GUIATIST! MIKE SHREDDDS 🎸🔥EDDIE SOUNDS AMAZING!! MATT CAMERON AND HIS HEAVY DRUMS PLAYING 🥁🔥 I LOVE "DARK MATTER" CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEW ALBUM AND DARK MATTER 2024 TOUR!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS AWESOME VIDEO 😊 🩷 🔥 🤘 ✌️
Mike isn't bad certainly. Not the best guitarist in the world from a technical, lead perspective. But writes good guitar parts. Largely chord based, but works for the songs.
Lol, "largely chord based" wtf does that mean, that he he doesn't have a solo every song? @@SonicChronicle
@nicolasflamel2905 I should have been clearer. I was referring to his riffs there. That based on when I've played Pearl Jam songs, there's a lot of standard Triad, "cowboy chord" stuff. Like how the main riff on alive is based around an A chord. Or how Black is based around an E/E7.
"Mike McCready is a pretty good guitarist just not a 'shredder'."
Generally yeah, but he let rip on this one!
He's a shredder.
@joehowerton945 I've never heard him let loose like a Hammett, a Vai, a Malmsteen etc, but he does a great solo here! He proper lets rips and it's great to see.
Yeah i laughed at that too 🤣🤣🤣
The fact that Halo is your standard for Beyonce hits, is kinda odd. Very mayo coded.
@SonicChronicle An album that came out 16 years ago. One that she intended to crossover to general audiences and be an international hit. This artist and the one who sang Halo are two different artist.
@SonicChronicle The track is #2 on the billboard country charts. So there's that. Also as a hard left from Act 1, it's very interesting and furthers the notion of her reclaiming black voices in spaces we have historically been removed from. This was a promo single to introduce us to sounds she would be exploring on Act 2, not a dissertation on the current state of country music and what it should be. A light rockabilly banjo heavy uptempo dance track, with a hard country edge.
@SonicChronicle oh look. Something we can agree on. This is the upbeat carefree more typical country of TWO tracks she released. This is a song for line dances and two steps, not deep storytelling. That would be the 2nd of the singles. Back to disagreements. The vocal stacking and harmonies are immaculate despite the simplicity, and are the highlights of the song. As the acts are shrouded in secrecy, she released what she released to keep said secrecy going. Beyonce has sold only moderately for Beyonce, seeing as though her last 3 albums have been socially divisive. This single and hard genre shift is a response to an issue that happened at the CMAs where she was made to feel uncomfortable for singing a country song at a country awards show (Daddy Lessons). Now who is Rhiannon? As in rings like a bell in the night, wouldn't you love to love her?
Great.
So what you’re saying is this ain’t country 😂
This ain't Country, ain't no Hold 'em.
Punk pop? Oh he did listen 😂 Loved this guy's and cheers for the shout out Craigles 👊🏻🤘🏻🍻💀
Cheers lads! You've at least one new fan out of this!
@@SonicChroniclecheers for the love, really appreciate it!
This was awesome, thanks so much Eoghan! Great to catch up, but damn you are a thorough interviewer man! Made me feel like a proper musician again. Still gutted I forgot by usb cable for my mic - if there is ever a part two, I'll make sure I have it!
You are a proper musician! Thank you for the compliment Dude. I just try to ask interesting stuff. Maybe we'll chat again about your project again!
Another good’un!
Cheers John! I hope the audio level was slightly better on the last 2.
I really enjoyed our chat. What an excellent podcast. I’ll do my best to get it to a wider audience.
Great stuff Eoghan 👍
Thanks man! Glad you liked it!
