I'm special ... Posts: 149 Group: Members Member #8 Joined: January 13, 2004	Congrats on getting everything together to self-produce. I've also wanted to do that, and hope to in future. I think your vocals need a little pitch practice, and perhaps you could work on accentuating words a little more clearly. The instrument part of the recording seems on the right track. Nothing comes immediately to mind for that part. Keep at it. I'm jealous that you've got songs and I have only "ideas" and incomplete progressions, completely without words. (: It's interesting to hear a percussionist's songwriting. Kaki King, for instance, is very interesting and seems to emphasise complex rhythmic ideas within her work, with a very different ear for melody/chord progressions than other guitarists I've listened to.

If the one mic I'd normally use for recording vocals is in service there wouldn't be trouble hearing the words, because I'm using a standard mic for vocals and it doesnt really work too well for recording but I just wanted to get the songs complete. As of right now, I'm working on two more songs, that are complete as far as music goes. Just dont have lyrics yet, but I'm workin on them.

Advanced Member Posts: 35 Group: Members Member #109 Joined: April 5, 2008	ok, its been a little over a week, but its because i was working on this one particular song that has piano in it (and i dont play piano so it took me awhile for it to click for me) its called "Still Breathing" and these are the lyrics So here I stand barely breathing I reach for your hand but you're not there I'm not asking for all that much But here I stand empty in hand And if I can't feel you and your heart beating I can't stop this love from bleeding It's not my place to say love ain't fair When all along my heart was scared Will you remember me? Cause I am still breathing I've been denied too many times Now I wonder if you can hear me As we fill our hearts up with hope We're only falling deep into this hole And as I fall faster and faster Colliding with only disaster It's not my place to say you don't care When all along you're right there Will you remember me? Cause I am still breathing I've been denied too many times Now I wonder if you can hear me You're listening to the sound of my heart Breaking down into the ground The illusion of someone, someone like you Killing me has become true once again, its up on my myspace and someone respond! i dont like to be the only one talking in my thread, lol (i feel so alone!)
