I know weird question.

Many of us has used photoshop filters to get a different view of a favorite image. I wonder if there's any software out there that allows to do something similar to an .mp3.

A techno filter, blues filter, or wherever, I can guess this is way more complicated that it may sound but I was wondering if it is possible and if there´s tools for it. I know there's music savvy guys around here, let me know.

Yes, you can do this.

1) You learn to play a few instruments.
2) You record your own version of the song.
3) There is no step three.

That'll go down well with the recto heads. Nice.

Quick suggestion: It'd be nice to know how the samples were recorded (what amp it was through or whether straight into the board, etc..).

Yeah, I had all that on there previously, but the description just seemed too long by the time I added pedal and guitar settings. I'll kick it around some more, though.

Some artists like NIN put their songs out in GarageBand format for people to screw around with.
