Thnx - but SERIOUSLY, I posted here, hoping for some tips!!
I'm listening to stuff I like. I know it's not the norm. Probably not that marketable, but it's what I like. As I go into this phase of my life, where I'm trying to chronicle the songs that came from my heart, and my experience in life, I want it to be a sound I LIKE! I'm hoping for some tips, in this forum, of recording techniques, where I can convey, in my recordings, the "feeling", as you said, that is in my heart.
Of the examples I gave, ADELE's iTune exclusive recordings are obviously live, but Sarah, and Sara's sound like an intimate setting, where just the musicians gelled together, and it was recorded. Does ANYONE know what I'm talking about??
Does anyone have some input for me, as far as what I might to to achieve a heartfelt recording with a decent quality?
Here's another, possibly Lame example: My girls (daughters) got me into watching American Idol this last season. I really liked Kris Allen. I bought some of his stuff, and was SO disappointed, because I liked the little quirky things he did in his live performance, and the simplicity of his own accompaniment. The studio versions were, IMHO, completely overdone. They did away with all the intimacy of what he offered on stage.
Any comments??
