Completely Off-Topic / Why did everyone decide to tour right now?

« on: February 07, 2009, 06:39:47 pm »

I don't know. Maybe they need some economic stimulus of their own to afford their $100k cars and multi-million dollar mansions. I'm jk, lol, but that's probably part of it.

Creative Endeavors / New Song (demo/draft) Collaboration with Jen XLovely

« on: January 21, 2009, 03:25:35 pm »

So Jen sent me lyrics she wanted me to put to music. She can post the lyrics if she wants, but I will just post the music in case she'd rather I not do that.

When I write songs I normally write the music/lyrics simultaneously. It was SO HARD for me to fit already written lyrics into this melody, but I think it turned out OK so far. The lyrics are very pretty and romantic, I tried to match that with the music at the very least.

The recording sucks because my microphone jacks on my computer broke and I had to record to my digicam and it just so happened Pete and his brother were talking/coughing and I sang very quiet cause I was embarassed. I go off pitch a few times because I was kinda improvising haha

So here it is and I'd like ideas & suggestions to make the music & lyrics maybe go better with each other. Thanks

You can hear the music with words titled "Hold On" or there is a "Music Only" option.

PS - That was fun and I might be willing to write music for another person with lyrics at some point. I think I'm worn out right now but maybe in a few weeks!

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / I GIVE UP!

IMO she should be happy she made it as far as she did, not everyone can stay on top. I don't really think she'd even care THAT much unless she'd just be upset she's not making enough to keep making records? But she could go totally indie and probably do fine.

Pretty good. Reminds me of a mix of Flyleaf & Eisley (the song Monster). Not to say they are ripping anyone off but wow it REALLY sounds like a mix of those 2 bands to me. I like it.

Other Musicians / Jack's Mannequin

« on: January 05, 2009, 06:11:55 pm »

oo yeah, more love for Jack's Mannequin.

I like the new album, but I kinda wish there were a few more slower songs. I hope SC get back together sometime for at least one more album. There was an angst about SC that JM doesn't seem to have as much, but I guess it's bc he/they grew up.

Well oh well, at least they wrote a friggin TON of songs over the years
