Song 2, Day 2 – my little ode to our favorite phone calls. Making this song was pretty fun, I learned a few small Logic Pro tricks (Ultrabeat, recording on a loop) but man, it’s kinda hard to put together nice sounding chords when you don’t have much of a music theory background. I spent at least an hour pouding away on the keyboard just trying to find chords that would work.
I also spent a while trying to figure out what melody I wanted to go with for the vocals. The chorus finally hit me at midnight and I had to run out to record in my car since my roomies were sleeping by then. So much fun, but something tells me I’m not gonna get much sleep in the next few days.
And in other music-related goodness, today my friend Stef gave me a private salsa dancing lesson in my own living room! Thanks Stef, and yes, I’m gonna work on that inside spin. Scout’s honor.
