Final lyrics!


Verse:
You never learned to shut your mouth, oh darlin', you'll be sorry
Always going on and on about your stupid stories
How you ruled the world and took control of everybody 
Oh, why you cryin' now? you better off get shot 

Pre-Chorus:
All your crazy talkin', now the demons comin'
They memorized all your lies, so darlin', please keep runnin'
It's too late, you were bait, and the gates are open.
Don't look back now, everything is burning down.

Chorus:
Oh, open up your eyes,
Care to realize
The pain is all around
So play and hear this sound


Verse 2:
thanks for believing im deceiving wont you trust this words
you are denying so undying is so full of shit 
i wish we're strangers why i've known you, you this cunning piece
Ah, i'm tired, Your lips are tearing down   

Pre-Chorus:
All your crazy talkin', now the demons comin'
They memorized all your lies, so darlin', please keep runnin'
It's too late, you were bait, and the gates are open.
Don't look back now, everything is burning down.

Chorus:
Oh, open up your eyes,
Care to realize
The pain is all around
So play and hear this sound


Bridge:
the rage is overwhelming
the hatred is overflowing 
on you 
i was told you were a liar
i was  told you were a cryer
so clean yourself up back home 

Chorus:
Oh, open up your eyes,
Care to realize
The pain is all around
So play and hear this sound

Guitar and Bass

Wow, i'm 1 step closer to finishing the assignment!
I've recorded the bass and guitar earlier today, really just need to spend alot of work on flexing everything together, and make them sounds tight!
Some of the parts have like hits like triplets?
I want them to sound perfectly tight together, thus flexing is unavoidable :D



After that, i also did alot of cleaning of tracks, to make it sounds so much more neat.

Synthesizer!


In this arrangement, I’ve recording a few synthesizer sounds from both analogue synthesizer and digital synthesizer.
The picture above is called “ALESIS Micron”. It is an analog synth which produces a lot of very edgy and rough tone, which really works for my electro composition. It also able to produce very massive bass sounds which can be used for my breakdown.

The picture above is called “Novation mininova”. This is a very new creation from novation, it’s so new that its software has not yet being published.
It is famous for distinct dubstep sound, electro sound and keyboard leads sound. It’s really useful for my arrangement.

Drum recording

I hired a sessionist to play for my drums, thus i have to like prepare a drum score. Really not used to doing a drum score professionally although i've learned the basics from arranging class. When it comes to doing it for sessionist purposes, it is not as easy as it seems. However, really glad that it turns out really well and, finally have something to mix! :D

MIDI consultation number 1

WOW! Mr.Spicer has been really helpful! Expecially the convertion of Midi to Wave and editting it in Wave. It's really helpful in many ways.
Most of the people out there, are actually doing it, or rather they record with their synthesizer and sample it into midi sampler, then play it, and bounce it out as wave form!

Problem number 1 solve.
One of my wobber bass sound, it sounds perfectly fine when i'm just like playback from the logic itself.
It kinda sound very screwed up with my automation on the macro settings, when i bounce it out with the song itself. Thus, i finalized it with the automation and bounce it out as a wave, then mix everything in another project.
It really helps interms of saving the usages of my processor and never ever crash anymore.


The automation does not really work well, when i bounce it out, thus i really have to solo it, and make all the other tracks inactive for my comp to effectively bounce it out.

YEAH LYRICS KINDA OUT

Well, REALLY THANKS TO SARAH'S HELP! My lyrics for first verse and chorus are done!
However, may still need to alter depends on situation!
I really want to settle my key on Em, as it sounds the best for the synth to "shine"
well, check it out

Sarah was like suggesting the title of the song should be "Welcome to the real world now"
It's kinda an angst song! But still, need the next verse and bridge to be done to really finalized it.


Verse:
You never learned to shut your mouth, oh darlin', you'll be sorry
Always going on and on about your stupid stories
How you ruled the world and took control of everybody 
Oh, why you cryin' now? heard your nightmares growl?

Pre-chorus:
All your crazy talkin', now the demons comin'
They memorized all your lies, so darlin', please keep runnin'
It's too late, you were bait, and the gates are open.
Don't look back now, everything is burning down.

Chorus:
Oh, open up your eyes
Tear off your disguise
Scream without a sound
So welcome to the real world now!

Finally a post again!

Well, it's been like ages since my last post.
Was really rushing to submit my REMT assignment! Well now i can focus on POD2.
To be honest, my progress is still stuck in the last blog post, however, i have finalized my drums arrangement, the rest of them just need to wait for the song to be done to alter the chord progression and stuff like it.
Well, hopefully i can finish up my song really quick.
I will be sourcing for help as i'm not using SONG WRITING as part of my skill-sets, so it's pretty legal for me to do so, or rather, best for me, as i'm one hell of a bad song writer.
