Welcome to the crux of this matter. Inspired by Eva Cassidy, Joni Mitchell, Alanis Morissette, Alicia Keys, India.Arie, Monica Heldal and more, I enjoy the effort of making it all ones' own: lyrics and chords, playing the piano whilst singing myself. Songs are recorded straight on my very first digital piano (*proudgoose*); Yamaha DGX660. Aspire to be a dusty old road you're happy to find, from my little student studio in Oslo.
Ever since I first heard  Janis Joplin's 'Mercedes Benz', my guilty pleasure music fetish has been to record my songs in one-takes, as a romanticized echo of the old days. If they made do, I should too. This means I'd rather post flawed, full takes than the best chopped-up pieces from different ones for now. There's a beauty in that too. PS: All comments always appreciated!
