WE WERE WRONG ABOUT THE WITCH

By bc likes you on January 18, 2026 5:46 pm

Really ran out of time on this one. So, so much more I wanted to do with it. Stick around for the pop-punk outro.

I'm taking Week 4 off to protect the flow. See you in Week 5!

// WEEKLY GOAL //
Learn how to send MIDI to my M8 from Reaper so I can use it as a dedicated synth. Technically I figured out how to do this but the workflow wasn't what I was looking for.


// SONG REF //
"i left a message for you" - Sadness. The ending of the song does a nice relative minor to major change that I tried to emulate.


// LYRICS //
Why do we need to bring her along?
Why do we need to bring her at all?
It's bad luck to travel with
a witch and her unknown ways

We were all so wrong

Witch! Please find a way to forgive us

Great guitar tone! I would love to hear the vocals and drums placed that confidently in the mix too because everything sounds great.

yeah the vocals are the roughest part here; both mix and performance. thought the big echo would be it but nahh wasn't. lessons learned!

Big echoes are fine on vocals, but if you want clarity, you need to keep the dry pass intact.

Dude I love the guitar tone and spaciness of the box. Very nice
