Welcome to what looks to be my the last competition for 2019.   HOFA is hosting its annual Christmas mixing competition.   When I got the invite a few days ago I took a listen and was like.....ugggghhhh!!!  An "a cappella" which puts me in my weakest spot for a starting position.  

The human voice when on a piece of music, ends up being one of the most important/relatable parts of the piece.  A great vocal performance can prop up a band... but it very seldom works the other way around.  

It's been one of the more challenging things for me to mix properly.  Here is the 2019 HOFA competition and the only thing on it, VOICES!!.  Challenge accepted HOFA and here is where I ended up brothers and sisters.  

The competition closes out in January so still plenty of time to get into the competition if you want to have some fun....working the faders.  I mean common what else could be more fun?....(blushes)  Really people, such dirty minds!!  haha

Happy Holidays brothers and sisters

Special thanks to Bill from November Sound( https://soundcloud.com/november-love-680008043 ) for being an advisor on the project... Big thank you for this and all your support in 2019. 

On a slight comedic note to one of our own:  Sunnidayz always mentions not being a techie...  If you get here sister.... I fought my production rig for 3 hours this morning to print the final mix and master...  Had everything set last night... wanted to sleep on it before finalizing.  This morning bam..kerchunk..bzzzt....with every session crash... I was reminded of those things you mention, about it getting in the way!  Three hours of fighting for 20 minutes worth of work!!

Verse 1
Somebody came who understands
She feels pain
Once she felt blue
She saw, she knew …life was cruel.

Chorus
Don’t believe my mind
I only smile
I went through the cloud
She knew, she found
…hears the sound inside my mind.

Verse 2
She always dreams
Behind the screen
She waits for him
Now she is proud
among the crowd
She reaches high

Chorus
Don’t believe my mind
I only smile
I went through the cloud
She knew, she found
…hears the sound inside my mind.

"Just One More Week Til It's Over"

I'm so sick of this shit
Do you know when it's going to quit?
No one seems to know
I feel trapped in some t.v. show

I'll sit back and read some poetry
while people are all fighting locally
the only thing to fix my anxiety
is to disappear from society

Just one more week til it's over 

Sit back get lost in some book
you're an artist create a new look
hum along to the song's hook
don't laugh at my sketchbook

smoke some weed and drink some beer
sit back and dream of next year
close your eyes you don't have to steer
the end of it is going to be near

Just one more week til it's over

Stand On It

J.T and Co.
