Getting Really Bad Again
Another collaboration with David from the U.K. (aka Callmedezz).
Comments
I like what you have built around his vocals. He does have a very interesting style.
I found this guy on Looperman. They have a lot of vocal tracks to choose from. What I like about this guy is that he is always in key. I think he might have perfect pitch. His timing is always spot on. He posted this acapella showing a tempo of 152 bpm and key of Bm. I cut the tempo in half to 76 to match the mood. It’s a rather depressing song, so the slower tempo sounded more appropriate. I used some sampled sounds that sounded much grungier when rendered at a lower bpm. I think they call that lo-fi these days. Thanks for listening!
I liked your backing tracks, Paul. Is it really a collaboration, though? It’d be cool if you played an instrument following his vocal line. The vocals are usually independent of the backing tracks. You could double it with a horn, synth, string, anything. Maybe next time.
It's probably not a collaboration in the old school sense. He lives over 3000 miles away, and I wouldn't recognize him if we passed on the street. However, under the circumstances, it's the next best thing for me. I miss playing in a band, but those days are over. If I could get gigs that were all less than a mile from home, played from 7:00 to 9:00, and somebody else dragged my equipment around for free, I would probably still be doing it. The late hours are probably the main reason. The older I get, the earlier it gets late.
I have often thought of getting one of my keyboards out and hooking up. The thing is, I love to sit outside while I do this stuff. Even in the winter I like to sit by the sliding glass doors and look out into the yard. When I'm done for the day, I just close up my iPad and move on to something else.
Hope you survived Helene. The pictures I have seen are horrific. I thought tornadoes were bad. With a tornado, we can just hunker down for an hour and it goes away. I know a few people in Florida. Thank God nobody was hurt or suffered any great loss of property. Take care!
Nice understated production
Sounds good, the backing is nicely understated and gives room for the vocal.
To my taste the vocal is over-tuned, but that's how most music sounds these days. My ears aren't getting used to auto-tune. :-)
The tempo of the vocal is 76bpm to my ears, just recorded at double the bpm. That's not a 152bpm for sure! A recent tune of mine is coincidentally exactly the same. The tempo is set to 152 but it's definitely a 76 BPM dirge!
Nice work Paulie. (I actually like the lyrics too quite a lot)…works great man
For some reason I can’t see anything under the line of text?
After posting my comment it appeared! Like magic!
Vocals and music gel well together
@myapologies @klownshed Thanks for picking up on that. I wanted the vocals to stand out, so I tried to keep it simple. I don’t think this guy uses any auto tuning. I have done a few of these with him and have not noticed anything that would indicate that. Usually you can hear something that’s not quite right. I think he just has perfect pitch and great control of his voice. I am sure there are others who have used this vocal track, but I tried to make a point of not listening to them. He told me that he likes the way I “reinvent” his music. Thanks for listening and commenting.
@yellow_eyez A lot of his lyrics tend toward the dark side. I thought they were a bit depressing, and not at all the way I’m feeling at the moment. I just enjoy working with his stuff. His sense of pitch and timing make it really easy to work with. Glad you enjoyed it.
@Fruitbat1919 Glad to hear that it’s working. A lot of this stuff is like magic to me, too. Have a great day!
Sorry about that. It really does sound tuned to me. Perhaps I am over cynical or have cloth ears. Or both. I’d bet my custard cream it’s tuned though. :-)
I do like what you did here. It does the vocal justice.
Now I’m curious! I will ask him next time.
