What are you recording?

Doing some of my favourite, old motown stuff,
 
presently "everyday will be  like a holiday". All myself starting with Midi tracks and TT-1 for the scratch tracks.

Editing and re recording some of  the midi tracks and replacing the tts-1 instruments with better VSTs. Some audio like bass , acoustic guitar, harmonica depending on the flavor.

Vocals last, and harmonies and back up singers from hardware or software harmonizers

Mix in sonar master in Izotope.

Still only doing voice overs for engineering animations and videos...  *Sigh*

I've got a bunch of musical ideas swimming in my head just waiting for me to get my gear out of storage...

Writing music and songs inspired by a book (with Tim) which may or may not turn into a complete 'album' (old school), and working on a new SMB tune (with Larry).

What is the last thing you recorded and mixed?
was it your original song?  did others participate?  did you post it publicly for others to listen to?
 
just a fred to discuss what we're doing with our sonar software to record and mix.
       

The last thing I recorded was your bass track, Reece.


I'm working up an idea that Jan gave me while back.


I've been on a stealth mixing/mastering mission.


And finally The CHB is in process on the final track that will complete our first CD (almost exactly 60 minutes of music).

ooh - a "stealth mixing/mastering mission" - sounds intriguing!

I'm currently working on some 'research' projects based around '90's dance music in order to develop some usable sound-sets that reflect that era and capture the vibe.

I'm also producing some self-penned weirdish 'Electro' stuff which for some strange reason is getting some enthusiastic responses after appearing on several club play-lists around here. That seems to be going down quite well.

I've requested some collaboration input from a couple of people too which hopefully will bear some good and juicy fruit.

So despite a long-standing hiatus over the last few years it's nice to be making plenty of music and having fun doing it.  I'm also testing another pre-release app. currently so I'm being an all-round busy bee at long last.

I've even had a few thoughts recently of getting re-equipped to play out again but although it's a move in the right direction there's still times where that could be regarded as no more than wishful thinking.  It is progress though as I couldn't have even imagined thinking about it a couple of years ago so it's a positive sign for sure.

Thanks for asking.

Aside from my stuff.... and doing much of nothing musically on my tunes....

I did have a long time and well respected forum member here,  ask me to write some lyrics for an idea that he had started as a chorus.... some verses were needed. So I took a few days and with help from my Co-writer in Texas, she get the ball rolling then had to go out of town on a family medical issue...leaving me to write solo. Any hooo.... I wrote 2 verses on a song that I have little artistic control over..... which is a totally different thing for me to do. 

So I shall not name the names of any of the people involved but my guess is that soon....very soon, all shall be revealed in the songs forum.

Sound and fury, signifying nothing.

sorry to hear that Greg.  are you having problems being "inspired" or time problems or...?

JB - that's fantastic!  I took a hiatus myself from recording, even tho I still kept buying sonar for a couple of years, actually.  it does feel good to get back into it!

Herb - it's always good to help out fellow musicians, IMO.

Bub - I'll check that out when I get home.  (can't from work)

I wrote me first tune when I was 15.   It got performed once by a friend's band but never recorded.

I decided it was about time I recorded something with the Vox I spent so long restoring, so "Play the game" has been dug out from the dark recesses of my head. I can even remember the words.

You wrote this Queen song?


Apparently they did not tell you they recorded it. Buggers.

Actually , mine pre-dates theirs by more than a year.  No,  they didn't ask if they could use my title...

I can't be arsed to figure out (minimally) how old you are even though all the "facts" are right in front of me.

Hi,
 
I'm working on my radio show right now. I am putting together the first show ... all insane, and I doubt anyone in the Coffee House will want to hear it!

 

I can confidently say Pedro, that we ALL want to hear it!
