Very rough first take with lots of mistakes and very basic piano to sort out the vocals first. Holiday project to keep my chin up in difficult times. First sang this song at a friend's wedding a few months ago. Don't have any recording equipment so this was done on windows voice recorder... there are about 50 mistakes in this short bit, can you spot them?


Holiday project: Cover of Jason Mraz "I won't give up" - Rough first take

Holiday project: a 2nd attempt at the Chorus: Cover of "I wont give up" Jason Mraz. Trying out a more jazzed up version, still many mistakes and flat notes, emphasis on the wrong words, slurring and not holding the notes long enough. Not a multi-tasking person, so it is difficult to play and sing at the same time. Anyway just singing and recording to keep the spirit up in difficult times.

A medley of some of my favourite songs. 
I finally got my home recording kit working! This is my first recording - a very simple one. Lots of mistakes - the guitar is not even in tune, was too busy trying not to play the wrong chords to sing properly, bad playing, singing lacks expression, quite a few flat notes, slurring etc etc... and just generally not sure about the next chord I am playing and note I am singing... so have your earplugs ready!
But hey this is fun! All the years of practising in the shower :) 

Ray's first DIY digital-rec!

Second attempt at recording, singing and playing at the same time. I reckon another 10 years of practice and I might get a few coins of consolation if I busk! [EARPLUGS NOT INCLUDED]

Lovers in Japan [Coldplay] Cover

A cover of the famous Coldplay song "Yellow". My third attempt at recording at home with an M-Audio/Pro Tools USB interface and Rode NT1A mic. Amateurish but hey I enjoyed it with all its mistakes (including a very obvious one in the first verse). Have a laugh! 

Yellow Coldplay RTham 1

[Remixed to bring out the guitar] The years of singing in the bathroom has somewhat paid off! My very amatuerish attempt at a cover of the famous Coldplay song "Yellow". Have a laugh! 

Yellow Coldplay RTham 2

[Remixed to balance guitar and vocals] Doing by bucket list thing and showing the years of bathroom singing practice! Have a laugh! 

Yellow Coldplay Cover Rtham 3

Cover of the famous Singapore national day song "Home" - with a little indie twist of my own. 

Cover of Home (do check out Version 2 as well)

Remixed the first cover recording and added a few more tracks/channels on keyboards and synth. PS. This is just for fun - I'm a bathroom singer and the neighbour's dogs bark along to my guitar and piano! 
Recorded at home with a mic and a USB recording interface. All vocals and instruments by myself hence the mistakes!
