Prettty sweet…sounds good. What type of recording equipment did you get?
“I still wake up on the floor”
Best. Part.
Thank you for sharing and I love your song!
I got a condenser mic, this two channel recorder that came with a bunch of its own software, cords, stands, an instrument mic too I think but I haven’t played with that much yet. The software is really cool, it came with plugins for reverb, gate, compressor, eq, and a bunch of other stuff that really came in handy
Recording on bass is tough without some solid eq haha

I think I’m gonna get a mic soon…I submitted some music to a record company and they said “the problem is! You have bad production and no catchy hooks! But everything else is good”…well I’m actually a pro at catchy hooks…I just didn’t include any of them…they r easy. And production…I thought the whole point of a demo tape is it has bad production…I guess they wanna hear a song ready for release as a true measure of how good you are.
Can you link me to exactly what you got if you’d reccommend it…if you don’t mind? I think I might get the same cuz it sounds really good… As long as it’s not too expensive
I like ur lyrics too btw
I listened to ghost and thought it was even better
I know you’ll like this one
I wrote this when I first thought I was the messiah (long time ago)

But it’d be way better if I actually owned a microphone …or put in a catchy hook Lol…to please the masses…
I think I’m getting the blue yeti
I need a usb mic not condenser
That one you got seems better for rock…mine for rap.
When I go to school in the fall I will have free access to a studio which im excited about. But I wanna record a few songs with a mic
I’ve used mics before but they weren’t great and broke.
Condenser mics are the ones you use in a studio, it would be awesome for rap. See I actually have the problem of being way too loud and having to turn the gain way down

Yeah I’ll get a condenser mic eventually.
I’m going to evergreen state…same school Macklemore went to. I have this plan…senior year I’ll take music…and make an album…in a studio.
I also make my voice too loud or so I’m told.
I need weed to write good lyrics or else it always ends up saying the same ■■■■
This is my favorite cuz it’s a poem. I wrote the thing in like 5 mins while I was high. Sound quality is bad tho.
You’ve got a great voice MisterWaffles!
Yeah I think he should seriously pursue music
Having a good voice is not something ppl r always born with
Took me years of practice to make my voice respectable.
Well me too, i’ve been singing since I was twelve and I took voice classes through high school haha

Would you think a rapper would benefit from voice lessons?
I’ve never heard of a rapper taking voice lessons but I thought of the idea like 3 weeks ago.
I’ve been writing lyrics for 7 years and recording for less than 3
When I thought I was the chosen one I thought I was destined to be a rapper to share my message with the world…then when I started recording…couldn’t believe how bad it was. I’ve improved a lot cuz I believe(d) in my “destiny”…I’ve always been quiet so my vocal chords have never been stretched out too much til lately when I became less quiet and started rapping/singing more.
Still a long way to go but I believe in improvement …believe in myself
I sometimes wish I started making music when I was 10 years old not 22…because the younger you start the better…but if I had direction in life at a young age I wouldn’t have struggled as much. I’m grateful for my struggles…learned a lot from them…it may take a little longer to get to where I wanna be, but when I get there it’ll have more essence than I could have ever had if I had not struggled so much… That’s .just my case tho.
Your music is very original btw…you got alternative rock pop and r&b all in one. It’s dope.
