The More You Read It, The Less Sense It Makes

By midimachine on March 9, 2012 1:31 pm

Lame psuedo-indie pop rock with practically ad-libbed lyrics, hah.
Instruments used:
Yamaha upright piano
Cort active J-bass
Yamaha PS-20 (now with Eindbaas stickers!)
Vocals!
Handclaps!

All acoustic records were done using a Rode NT1-A microphone.
The drums are just some samples that come with FL studio and GOOD compression and reverb VSTs.

awesome sir!

This is really chill. I like it. The piano adds a nice touch.

thanks bros smile

this is really nice. Needs a real drum wink

Beautiful... reminds me of Prefab Sprout (compliment). Great vocal and melody line. Sweet distorted vocal break.  New fav!

Nice and relaxing! smile

great lyrics smile I love that first line.
I really like your voice too!
let me know if you'd ever be interested in collaborating smile

@analog: YES it really does! I was going to use BFD2 which is as close as I can get to real acoustic drums. But, since my computer is old and decrepit, whenever I use it I have to split my project into 2 different files; drums sequenced in one, then all the individual tracks rendered to wav and imported into the main project. It really slows me down and breaks the flow of the writing/producing process so I'm avoiding it until I can afford a new machine. Glad you still like it, though! smile

@unison: from past experience I've deduced that I'm not very good at collaborating as a songwriter, but I can definitely produce and/or play an instrument as part of a team effort. Definitely interested in some form of collab, though! If you want to swing me some ideas or stems you should message me on skype, username is "electroredux". <- that goes for anyone else, actually!

Also wow, Prefab Sprout were pretty great! More awesome 80's music for me to annoy my girlfriend with >:D

Yet another awesome track from midimachine. Nice work!

LOVING THIS! %u2665 NOT LAME

that was meant to be heart not %u2665 - but yeah...that too

Nice work on the vocals.  Catchy tune.

well done smile

If there were an album filled with music like this, I would probably buy it. Just sayin'.

I'll have to make an album filled with music like this, then!

No kidding. This is one of my favorite songs on this site right now.
