word to the wise For me as well as ive seen other industry pros, (while i watch and learn) The writing goes in stages, Once it is song formatted, then you re-write, Once you are happy with the re-write it is time to record a rough vocal recording of it. Just to be able to show your "net"...

More power to ya man- I used to write it according to the A&R - cause when you wanna get on YOU wanna get on. I used to think why be in the game if im not gonna go PLATINUM. Im wasting my time and cheating myself if i dont try. Now i see its garbage and I write for me, i feel ya if no one...

Even if you dont want to write your songs to these rules, sadly it is the TRUE industry standard. The artist do not make those desicions its the Execs. that tell you what you will do. ITs sad how music has slipped especially in rap- its plain out garbage now days. I mean anyone ANYONE can rap...

I agree I like your song as well. reminds me of something john meyer would sing. I really really like your recording voice. I have an ear for talent and i heard it in your voice. I would like to hear some other stuff you have done if possible. Be sure to check out my new chorus i wrote...

A&R 411 Why certainly- I wouldnt just leave you guys hanging. The A&R's are taught specifically to glance at the lyric sheet for the following. 1. First the SONG name - first thing they look at- Then they see if its in the CHORUS. It's not very marketable if the name of the song is not in...

Wow i must say im very pleased, Especially from fiddler who likes the vox haha. Thanks alot for the feedback from both of you, im glad you like it so far. Now i just need the beat - or instrumental and then it will be ready. If anyone cares to do a guitar riff to it that would be awsome. IM...

Okay okay - here is the quick and i mean QuiCK - audio version of the chorus. Now Its not mixed or any of that - n i dont mess with that stuff. I sung it even though i cant sing at all lol. Listening to it i hear some pianos, guitar, drums, and other instruments that would sound good in it...

Hey their I was just wondering if any one needed help with song writing. If so reply what you need help with. If anyone else has any techniques also post them. Like an A&R can,you look at your song on paper and tell if its a hit ?? Wanna know how? Do you know what the A&R's look for...

Anymore feedback.. Thanks for all the post so far I appreciate it. Hmm about the U2 song- I have never heard any of U2's songs. I will check in to that though and make sure im not infringing. If I do post the audio it will only be vocals, i dont have music to it yet. I cant play the...

Hey let me know what u think of this Chorus - This is my newest work I have come up with. The song is gonna be called "With Out You" Chorus X2 "With out YOU" -I wouldnt wanna Livveee "With out-YOU" -I couldnt ev-enn Brea-thhe "With out YOU" -no chance this life...

i must ask about peoples experiences with the usb mixers. HAs anyone owned the ALesis Multi MIx 8 usb mixer?? Just curious how you liked it. Thanks for all the advice, ya i figured the yamaha would be best to go with. I really think i need to buy a new soundcard, so i can just get good...

I agree with with billy BO - Every rhyme doesnt have to be about christ name. Some people can write some really deep ill stuff- using meta's and what not in christian rap. I have JUST switched to christian rap - Im sick of rapping for the world all it does is screw you over. Id also much...

I have been looking at getting a mixer such as the yamah MG8/ or something from the Behringer Eurorack series under 200 dollars. Now the sales people are telling me they are all good product, but thats why i come here. I wanna hear your experiences or input on these mixers. Thanks
