I made a song over the weekend for mom called "
Mother's Day." I recorded a rough version of it and like how it turned out, but there's something about it I'm still not sure about. The chords are simple D-G-A in the verse and I think the thing I'm unsettled about is how strident my vocal is in the verses. Although it is written as a kind of classic Folk ballad type of song.
I think I'll let it stew a bit and then try something new. Maybe a completely new recording. I tried something different with the acoustic guitar and vocal this time out. I set up a Y stereo mic pattern. It had some strange results, particularly that if I turned my head (which since I've been videotaping performances I've noticed is something I tend to do) the vocal shifts in the stereo spread in the mix (naturally).
I want to try an acoustic guitar solo, replacing the synth horn thing I've got in there now.
