This is as far as I got for this weeks challenge. This song (the original and the Adam K and Soha Vocal Mix) means a lot to me, especially the theme this week. I am... extremely codependent on relationships and other people. Without them, I fail. I become depressed.... lost. Very much the way I am now. A lack of self esteem... a desire to feel love. This weeks theme stung in some ways.

Giving my heart is what I was raised to do, and I feel lost without someone to give it to. My heart longs for people who abused me simply because I can not bear to be alone in my own skin... in my own mind. I am a broken person in many ways... and the subject of self esteem for the Moose Card that was drawn Sunday was... to me.. a reminder of the road ahead. That I need to be okay on my own. That I have something to work on and toward.

Vocal Trance is a big reason why I fell in love with electronic music, between that and DnB xD. These beautiful sirens bleeding their hearts out... I just... fell in love with something I knew would never ever go away as long I was breathed air and had ears to hear it. The original song this is based off of lives in that world.. and I may have bit off more than I could chew again taking such vocals and running with them but I figured it was a way for me to say fuck it to low self esteem and push myself anyway. The chord prog is an tiny variation on the original, at a much higher tempo. The vocals are available on an acapella album, where I got them from.

Much Love, Always.

Reflekt - Need To Feel Love Ft Delline Bass (JP Bootleg)

This track was made between me and my best friend of 27 years. Her and I hadn't seen each other in over a decade. So we wrote a song about it.

Every Time I'm Sad I'm Making Something [unmixed concept]

Just for fun really. I don't really record my voice for songs... this is my first time doing that. I decided to try out covering a song that means a lot to me given what I have been through the last few years and didn't have a real crazy vocal performance. I added some "noodling" over the song so to speak because I wanted it to feel like... it was a different thing... a slightly different world than Fred's. The original song is 'Fred Again... & Brian Eno - Secret'. Vocal performance not too terrible considering its recorded in an untreated bedroom on a 28 dollar microphone. There is no auto tuning so I am happy enough with this version for now even though I still... just don't like hearing my own voice. It was a great exercise on recording and mixing vocals for tracks like this. 

I suggest the album by Fred Again & Brian Eno called Secret Life. That whole album is fantastic and I highly recommend it for people who enjoy ambient electronic music. Much love, stay safe. <3

Junebug (Single)

Released: August 1, 2020

Lyrics:
Where you going junebug? I heard your lost in time
Is the feeling over now, has it crossed your mind?
Does it remind you of a better time?
If things were easier, would it still be right?

And so you love another now, does he treat you right?
Do you look into those eyes, the way you once did mine?
Do they remind you, of a different time?
If things had stayed the same, would it still be right ?

Memories seem nice these days
It's been quite a dream
I fall behind in so many ways
In ways that you can't see
Because we're not looking

Where you going Junebug? I heard your lost in time
Is the feeling over now? has it crossed your mind?
Does it remind you of a better time?
If things were easier, we'd never grow inside...now ain’t that right?
