Today I had a day off. I feel like I haven't had a proper day off in ages. So I thought i'd try and get to work on the music that I had recorded at the same time as 'Verbatim'.
At the begining of the recording session, I thought i'd record the vocals. It was about 11.30am, and i hadn't even got dressed yet. Sat in my boxers and a t-shirt, I had wired up my Zoom pedal and micrcophone and recorded 3 different vocals. The last one I sang quite loudly as I thought it is the middle of the afternoon and most people would be out. The vocals sound excellent and and are recorded well.
So I got to work on a couple of guitar parts after that, but both didn't sound too well. I will try and add one in at a later date. When I have time.
I then started messing about with a bass riff. First I used distortion and echo, but thought it was too much with the delayed guitar riffs. So I only used a tiny bit of reverb, and came up with a quite funky bass riff, that I did not think would work, but really worked well. Finished that.
I then edited the track, cutting up the bass, vocals, and guitar riffs. I began work on some drum beats too at the beginning of the song. However, I ran out of time. I intend to edit the song, with lots of drum beats and maybe even rock some parts up. Just depends.
Will put a version of 'Art Imitating Reality' up on www.soundcloud.com/wullaewright for download. It will be the unfinished version I have recorded. I also have the intention to edit 'Verbatim' and shake it up a bit.
Watch this space,
