transmothraA couple of sketches of works-in-progress. I’m always accidentally working in either a fucked-up time signature or a fucked-up key; here it’s the latter for both of these tunes. The first is practically fucking chromatic, while the second is diminished. What the hell is wrong with me.
This one is at a very, very early stage.
Rough, working mix of a recording still in progress. This version scales back the bass with compression, fixes some vocal sibilance, and uses some slightly different EQing and reverb on the drums.
I’m not sure how this mix sounds on various systems, so i’d love some feedback re: balancing elements, stereo panning, EQ, etc. (and yes, i do know the singer is shitty, but he’s all i’ve got to work with).
Lyrics:
wait until now to say the things you thought of
say it unto me the way you think you practised it
say to me love that you never thought you would ever be
so full of doubt, the way i think it ought to be
my love, is it so clear?
that you would pick this instance out of the jar?
and what you hold dear
will come around like we are
today is the day we would have celebrated
three years of hate, candles dripping quietly
forever the beast, within you i desecrated
& unleash this feast, for we will forever be
at night, can you still breathe?
your heavy vapors they flood me incessantly
karma, like a vamp,
will come around like we are
it don’t want to leave, my love
it don’t want to ease my hate
it don’t like to feed on me
but it’s gotta shit something…
tell me you fear the day we call an end to it
tell me you want more of my bullshit
say you can’t wait (until) the day we finally call it quits
baby, i need you just to lie a little bit
my love, is it so clear?
that we would pick this moment out of the jar?
and what do you fear?
that we’ll come around like we are…?
Rough, working mix of a recording still in progress. I’m inching ever closer to a final arrangement. However, i’m not sure how this mix sounds on various systems, so i’d love some feedback re: balancing elements, stereo panning, EQ, etc. (and yes, i do know the singer is shitty, but he’s all i’ve got to work with).
