In my last post, I showed you the new pages for 'production notes' and what went on 'behind the song', which allows me to keep everything all neat and tidy and together.
I also mentioned that I would tell you about what has been going on over the last few months.
Basically, I took the summer off!
Now, if I'm honest, I hadn't planned to do that - but that's just the way it happened. And it was obviously something I needed to do as I've been back in the studio this last few weeks or so, all fired up, ready to continue where I left off.
Before I did take the break I had already begun to record a new song which was definitely a bit of a project. And it's a special one too, as it's the first song that I wrote and recorded on a cassette recorder way back in 1991.
Now, I do have other earlier songs, but I can't for the life of me remember any of the music or melody, so that kind of made the decision to leave them in the book. So this is the one that I officially class as my first one.
Now, full disclosure, I have rewritten parts of it and added a new bridge section, but the melody is still the same as the original and therefore it counts 😀.
The production for this one has also taken me well out of my comfort zone. And it has taken quite a bit of effort to get right - plus the inevitable doubts and insecurities that go with it 😆!!
All that needs done now is the final mixing and mastering. This takes quite a bit of time (more than it should be) as I'm still trying to learn how to do it.
But the end is in sight...
I look forward to telling you all about it very soon.
Thanks For Stopping By...
