this. its faster than the last few songs you've recorded, but I really liked that about it. awesome, once again.

so fucking good. it has a summer vibe, mainly because the guitar sounds like a ukulele/mandolin cross. simply awesome.

Samuel - Thanks, I think I'm learning how to control my breathing more so its giving me more voice control

Sarah - Thanks!, I haven't written too many fast ones, wanted that vibe again. I noticed I enjoyed recording/singing songs like HKTRS and Headcase better, and they're more upbeat.

Dylan - I love using the capo, and when you put it low on the fret board it really gives the guitar a different vibe, this song has it on the 5th. Glad you like it, I appreciate it!

Heather, when do you get those tracks back from your professor?

not sure, Sunday he told me about a week, I know he went of of town Wen, maybe longer, so probably mid/end of this week I would think. He's never been very good at getting back to me, a.d.d or something..haha

just an update on the songs. Mike emailed me and said his buddy had a death in the family and wouldn't be coming til Monday. I think he works in the industry or something, so he wanted him to heart the songs. He said they sound amazing so far.

and I changed the site over to this: http://hlmmusic.webs.com/

I think I've seen that site before.. did you post the link somewhere a while ago?

yeah, its on the first page, I just changed the link. It was headcaseremedy.webs.com, now its hlmmusic.webs.com
other than that its the same, just didn't want people using the old link anymore

new one, Fate's Apology, kinda went with a Speak of The Devil lyric/content vibe...sorta..whatever, its from the point of view of Fate

I really like it, nothing new your voice seems a lot stronger to me in this one.
really like your avatar too btw haha

Thanks! yeah, seems like I've been on the same kinda vibe/melody lately, I tend to get stuck on one for a while then change again. I kinda want to write another one like Heroin Killed The Rock Star, I have the most fun playing that one

I like your avatar too, I sent you pm asking where you got the pic..lol

Jeremy found the original but I recall him saying that he doesn't know where he got it from

how come i haven't checked this thread out before?!

I really love your voice, you use it very well! I am now gonna listen to all of your songs(:
I'll get back to you!

Fate's Apology is really catchy! I loved the guitar playing in it.

Hope you like them Shelly

Thanks Jer!! I think my guitar is getting better, like the quality and tone

How do you come up with your melodies? must be a weird question to you, but i find it difficult to come up with leads. maybe because i've always been a bass player, i find myself in a groove more than in a lead.

Well I really just play rhythm for the guitar and use vocals as the melody. Most of the time I just start strumming and a vocal will come then lyrics. I'd say the song with the most lead-kinda melody is Simple Difficulty, which just came from a minor chord progression I was playing around with. I use the capo a lot as well to mix up the sound.

and that didn't answer your question at all...lol. Honestly is just kinda comes. Like D's talked about, if its not working I just walk away, but usually I just start playing what feels right. I guess advice wise, start with a bass tone, then build a melody around that. And try to play every day, the more you play the more comfortable you get and the easier it comes.
