Hi, floyd jane.

I aim to please! wink

Everyone has a different methodology, and every song - no matter how well planned - has a different sort of genesis, and I enjoy reading how other people approach the process.

Well, except for pros like Jimmy Webb, who follow a known processes. And floyd jane, who revealed the true secret of lyric writing is to mow the grass while the subconscious works things out. One look at my so-called lawn would reveal why I've got problems coming up with lyrics. wink

A good rhythmic Pop track. The combination of drums, bass and stab-y piano is nicely infectious. You have a good handle on adding "a bit of sugar" along the way to add interest. The organ, for example...

Thanks, I appreciate hearing that!

I'm impressed with the rhythmic singing of your vocaloid. That can't be easy to achieve. Adds nice expression. Your BGVs are impressive as well!! Nice countermelodies and call-responses...

Thanks again! The background vocals are one of the few places in the writing process that's actually fun, because by that point all the lyrics are written, and it's interesting trying to get the balance right.

Thanks for commenting! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
