As I prepare to listen to yet another mix of my current project (I'm reaching as many mixdowns as I have tracks on the tune), I'm wondering what everyone is working on at the moment? Home project? Studio work? Something cool, or not so cool, that's paid? Song writing/arrangement for something you've written? The always-important-yet-overrated-lyrics to said song? What's up?
Tons. Still have 7 or 8 of my own songs finished and waiting for vocals, and just finished yet another one.
Spending most of my time on my first client's album; 12 songs, 6 are recorded already, I'm just slowly finishing the mixes as we are tracking the rest of them. "Walking Alone" was the only one I posted.
I'm doing all the guitars, bass, synths, and programming of the drums with Superior 2.0, helping with arrangements, producing, engineering, and mixing. Crazy. One of the recent ones is a mellow track with 4 violins, a cello, acoustic, and harmony vocals. Was a crazy day the day all the string players came over to track, boy that was fun. I'll definitely be throwing that one up in the clinic soon. Heading into the studio now to attempt finishing the mix on an all-out rock track. (Yea, the album's all over the place genre-wise)
When I get the time and feel confident, I already know the next three of mine I'm doing the vocals for; a rock/rockabilly track, a soft rock 10,000 Maniacs type track, and a pop-country-ish track. All three are done and just waiting for my vocals...
Oh the misery of deciding what to work on every day when I go into the studio. Usually plan it out while laying in bed the night before, if I haven't already...
