The Gift of Song
Handcrafted and heartfelt gifts feel good, right? Something that someone actually put their own personal touch on. Every now and then someone important to me has a celebratory occasion (usually a birthday or wedding) coming up and, if I have the time, I try to whip up a song for them. This usually involves my wife and I signing (with the help of Autotune) a song, to the point of parody, in a specific style (so far we've hit country, dance, hiphop, power ballad, metal, pop and experimental). I try to be overly specific in terms of timbre, instrumentation, and song writing technique. These "little ditty's" are usually done over the course of a couple days and serve as a micro lesson in recording, mixing, and creativity at my humble home studio. Here are a few that i've done in the past. hope you get a laugh.
