week 2 recording project.

So this week, I primarily worked on structure. I want to elaborate on what I said last week in class. Logic is a program in which most artists create their entire songs. It also is a semester course in music programs and therefore it is a very difficult program to become proficent at in 3 weeks. However with it's basic functions I am still able to do a lot of things. My structure consists of to melodies in the start of the song. The first piano, and the second bells. Then a three layer drum beat. Then follows bells. These elements of the song comes in and out with the versus and chorus to create a more dynamic song. As I said before as well, I am not very musically inclined so this form of producing is very foreign to me. Tonight I will be recording my vocals hopefully. This will allow the song to sound more complete. Being as I am still working with loops and repetitive sounds. I know I told you all that I will have live drums and piano, but with more carefully thinking, I feel that might make the song sound choppy. Working with synthetic sounds, I am not sure that live instruments will flow. However, it is is a possibility and will definitely still consider it. I will hopefully have more to layers tonight so I will wait to post the song until then. I hope you all enjoy it. d.

song writing.

this week, i have completed my song, it has a melody and lyrics. they are as follow.

surrounded by the autumn leaves,
wonder where your taking me.
Mama said "time heals all"
there's always a spring and fall
(chorus)driven by your face
to a world i cant escape
wished i had listened
been more conscious of my decisions
change is all we need
your words planted the seed
blind but you will see
you werent good for me
lets just say i'm not the same
i only have myself to blame
for my life in the cage,
i have learned that i want to change.

next i will start recording.
