Recording!
Phew! It’s good to be back recording again. The first track in a while isn’t even one of the several songs I have been writing in preparation for being able to record again. Nope. The first track is something that came out of road testing my set up.
I started with a melody, worked through some basic chords on my Nord, and then started building the track out on my DAW. Having put together a verse and chorus and laid down a “do do do” version of the melody, I started on writing some lyrics with the verse and chorus in a playback loop. I find that a pretty effective way of writing lyrics.
Much as I often worry, when it’s been a long time between recording sessions, if somehow my muse will have left me, I really shouldn’t worry. I slip into a creative flow as easily as I breathe. My enthusiasm for exploring ideas far outstrips the notion of being stuck in a rut. I keep mixing it up, keep examining new techniques, so there is always new and exciting ground.
Today I wrote 2 verses and a chorus. They work, but I am undecided if they are right for the song. Roll on tomorrow!
