Members stickboymusic Posted August 25, 2016 Members Share Posted August 25, 2016 SO I have been struggling- really struggling.... switching pro tools on staring at it....messing around...Nothing. Today I decided to ignore protools and load up cool edit, its a really dated piece of recording software - it doesnt do grids, nor midi, its clunky as hell AND its what i started with right back when i was first writing and recording. Next I picked up my guitar - sat in front of a mic and then just made this up on the fly Then plugged in my old proteus 2000, an ancient bit of kit full of sounds....connected the keyboard and just stuck some random stuff on it And do you know what.....I recorded a whole song....back 30 mins from nothing to song YES it's rough as hell (i forgot to use a click) but its something and something is better than nothing Here it is https://soundcloud.com/stickboy/be-yours-demo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members drobster67 Posted August 26, 2016 Members Share Posted August 26, 2016 Nice tune! I think you found your comfort zone. Perhaps the daunting tech was not allowing you to relax?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeonardScaper Posted August 26, 2016 Members Share Posted August 26, 2016 I have been waiting for this...from you. It is why I came back here. And this is wonderful. The intro speaks of.....tentatively coming back. The vocal...space.....speaks of the raw need to be back and to be...real. The pad in the background speaks to me of something nagging. The repeating hook line speaks strongly of resolve. You sound as amazing as you ever did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bee3 Posted August 27, 2016 Members Share Posted August 27, 2016 Great hearing from you again Stick. Hope this gets you over the hump... I'm a bit stuck writing wise myself. This one is beautiful, stark, and abrasive all at the same time. Very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tbry Posted September 5, 2016 Members Share Posted September 5, 2016 I can see why LScaper would relate to this song. It has a bit of his style. Unique....and good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I thought Mozart was fancy for using a piano, ink pot, and quill! I just grab a pad, pen, and guitar. I am SO off the bus . . . .
