there is [no] art

mixing down “10SN” – i’m getting to the part where i have to make semi-permanent but lasting commitments.

my problem is that i really want to pull down ALL the instruments except for the stereo harmony acoustic guitar arpeggio where i sing “one lonely guitar, one lonely string/one lonely singer…” but it really really shows off my weaknesses as a singer. truth be told, it really does sound terrible.

and that means that either i have to

a) go back on my “no punching in” rule, for the sake of Steve Albini-esque Total Recording Honesty

or

b) embarrass myself.

which would you do?

jae lethe (he/she/they) is a blogger, musician, artist, poet, web developer/designer, armchair philosophizer, teller of tales, and gadabout. Also, something he calls a "behavioral artist." (Not sure.) She has plans. BIG plans.

Among the things that he has done for a laugh are minor fractures, cuts, scrapes, and various scabs. Though she's quick to point out that they're no imbecile, we're fairly certain that he thinks the word means some kind of medieval pharmacist.

This is her latest home on teh internets - where jae stores their swear words, when they're not hurling them at the sun in vain.

well, for the fact that you have to bounce tracks, I think that “punching in” would be acceptable on the track where vocals are so out front. Otherwise stick to your guns bub.
