Got my new tune Ropes and Chains up tonight. 3 weeks of toiling over this one. Very emotional and technically challenging. It is what it is. Just my vocal, Takamine EF407 acoustic and Fender p-bass. Vocal mic was Apex 550 FET large diaphragm condenser. #OriginalMusicTracks youtu.be/zgLh6wltQPA

Basement session tonight. Put down the opening vocal line of my new bluesy soul political gospel tune. Two hours to get the opening 8 words solid, before the acoustic reggae-like guitar thing kicks in. Got it comped too. Now I can get on with tracking the verses and choruses. Ahhh. #music

In the basement working on a new song. Got lyrics, tempo and chords. Trying to suss out the key for my vocal. Put down an acoustic guitar track and pitch shifting it around to see what works. Then I’ll capo and re-track for the key I need. Kind of a gospel soul kinda vibe. #music #songwriting

Good basement mix session tonight. Listened to the raw unmixed new blues tune first thing this morning with fresh ears. Major mud going on. Got surgical this evening with an 8-band EQ on each individual track. Cleaned up the 200-300 hz ugliness. Tweaked each track‘s frequency ranges. Getting there.
