I really need to stop staying up late looking up Paul SImon lyrics. It's no good for the old depression :/
Anyway, For those of you who watch me for my music, long time no see :)
It been fucking hot and humid here and I discovered that such conditions are amplified in an attic studio with poor ventilation. My studio has been intolerable.
In fact, right now it is 3:04 AM my time, and I am sweating like a pig even typing this at my desk up here :/
FUCK SUMMER
FUCK HUMIDITY
FUCK NO AIRCONDITIONING
FUCK SEATTLE WEATHER IN GENEREAL THIS PLACE SUCKS.
Ok, no that that out of my system, I tried something new here. Up until now I have been a retard using muy one boom mic stand to mice the guitar while using a standard one to do my vocals. this time I switched them. I was able to get much clearer vocals cause I was able to get the mic closer and the guitar didn't mind either.
I am playing the new Odessa guitar here that I am trying to sell so if you like the sound you hear it can be all yours for $300 see: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6318988
The vocals are miced with my Rode NT-1A and the guitar is miced at the neck joint with a MXL 603s pencil condenser.
Another interesting fun fact! I found out one of my XLR cables has either a bad ground or a EM leak. What noise!
Anyway, there is some original stuff on the way folks.
Lyrics:
He was a most peculiar man.
That’s what mrs. riordan said and she should know;
She lived upstairs from him
She said he was a most peculiar man.
He was a most peculiar man.
He lived all alone within a house,
Within a room, within himself,
A most peculiar man.
He had no friends, he seldom spoke
And no one in turn ever spoke to him,
’cause he wasn’t friendly and he didn’t care
And he wasn’t like them.
Oh, no! he was a most peculiar man.
He died last saturday.
He turned on the gas and he went to sleep
With the windows closed so he’d never wake up
To his silent world and his tiny room;
And mrs. riordan says he has a brother somewhere
Who should be notified soon.
And all the people said, "what a shame that he’s dead,
But wasn’t he a most peculiar man? "

I still having difficulty balancing these mics. I wanted to mix the guitar a bit louder but I couldn't do it without have a big *thud* every time I hit that low bass note. I will say that Now that I am listening to this on my two way fishers the guitar is way to quiet. On the jbls upstairs and through the monitors it sounded tolerable. Of course it was pretty late and I hada few shots so I might have not been the best judge.
