Trying to work towards my first album. I have two songs mostly completed and a few in various early phases. I am not much of a drummer so the DrumBrute Impact has been…instrumental in implementing some beats.
Right now there’s a growing stack of tracks that need vocals recorded and a couple of project revivals that need some last minute tweaking. And videos to make…blugh. COVID triggered an unusually long pause in my output, trying to crank it back up
I think COVID screwed with a lot of people’s habits, goals, and routines. At least you are making an effort! Getting things rolling is always the hardest.
Cool setup, what synth is to the right of the Neutron?
Behringer Model D
Is this for hardcore?
My wife needs me to record some tracks for her summer theater camp for kids. I need to stsrt figuring out how to record my vocals in a way that I feel meets my standards I have for live performance. Also, I have those same PC speakers. I love them.
I’ve been testing for @eclipxe@waveform.social on a really cool plugin for Ableton Push, giving it song mode.
This means my Push is now actually a standalone device :D
Keep going! I’m working on 7 or 8 songs on guitar and drums, some early stages some almost done and recorded. Kinda like a psychedelic roots thing. Haven’t made an album since my early 20s so I’m just enjoying myself and using it as therapy.
Awesome! Music can be so therapeutic! My job has been stressful lately but spending all my free time with music has helped keep the balance. Ping me when your stuff gets released. I would like to hear it!
This album is from when I was about 20. Trip hop, guitar, and my poetry on top. Slightly embarrassing but holds a special place in my heart
I will check it out after work! Thanks for the link.
(: I’ll probably post my progress somewhere here on everything, perhaps that’d be interesting to see how it develops, and maybe as sort of a mindfulness practice for me during the process. More content, even if no one gives a F 🤷
The more the merrier. Plus we can’t all be rock stars but we can at least enjoy music for the sake of enjoying music, right?
Tbh, being a Rockstar sounds miserable lol. That may be cope, but I’m gonna stick to it. Music is soul food, and once it becomes a job it, maybe, loses its luster? I was pretty serious about original music as a job for a long time, almost got there, tours and stuff, but the whole thing wasn’t my jam yknow. I just love doing it, and if people end up enjoying then that’s just icing.
I’m looking forward to seeing the community grow and what else pops up around these parts!
Upvote for that pun alone. Also, sick setup!
