One of my goals in life is to make music of my own. However that is accomplished is left to the situations that unfold before me. I could use FruityLoops Studio (Aired Producer Edition, which I have on my machine), or I could get in touch with people who play various instruments. One problem may arise in my goal, however; I would be the sole idealist. Call me a lyric-hog (as you can see I have over a dozen of them in my gallery), but I like the thought of writing lyrical material for a music project.
Being a moody listener for the most part (yes, I know I started this sentence with a gerund, but bear with me here), I think it would definitely show in any music I'd make. So basically, I wouldn't really care about instruments being highly pronounced just for the sake of it; I would want to put the listener in a mood. I want the listener to be able to picture what I am trying to display in lyrics and through the musical notes in the tune. That's something I absolutely revere in music, and I don't think there's anybody who would disagree.
The musical group would be an Experimental/Alternative Rock/Modern Metal band, and I should definitely put stress on the Experimental label. To me, that label is truly what it's dictionary definition is, experimenting. That's what I would do with my music; I'd want to experiment with anything. Perhaps, no one song, or album, would be similar in any aspect. Well, I wouldn't want to completely alienate a listener by having each and every song completely different from one another, but that's left to producing the songs I've so-far written in the first place.
I'd like to get the ball rolling first, though, and I think my approach would involve doing the vocals first. I'll invest in a studio-quality microphone and see what I can do. I want the rest of the music to revolve around my singing. For music that involves vocals and beats, those two elements usually are the first things that the other instruments (bass, guitar, rhythm guitar, etc.) are then built from.
Anyway, I'll keep you all posted on when I get the vocal tracks going.
Keep on mutating,
