Hey guys. I haven't really been all over HitRECord this week because I was working on my own little projects but I've discoevred some great audio recs, which make the most of this week's RE-RECs. I really think they can be used in many ways here on HitRECord. :)
1. Braun22's 'Clashing Clusters' is a hard-core tiny tune. It wasn't contributed to any collabs and I think it should have been. When I listen to it, I can picture some kind of steampunk opening scene or something to do with the Ravens collab. What do you think?
2. I thought sinking in reverse was brilliant. You don't listen to many reversed recordings anymore and that's a shame. It's a beautiful piece of music and people can do a lot with it!
3. 'Forest Run' is a beautiful piece of music. At first I wasn't sure if I should recommended because I couldn't see where it could fit. I see it now... in my head, I can see the theme of transitions. Amazing photos taken from all over HiTRECord and put together in a video... maybe with a voiceover. I'll work on it.
4. Sanavalon's 'quirky journey' is the PERFECT fit for a children's story. For example, I would LOVE to see more contributions to the 'Child Logic' collab so maybe it could become a HitRECorderly issue? Then the quirky journey tune would be an excellent resource for that.
5. Bell's 'unlikely things' illustration and song is a great RECord, perfect for some REmixing. Personally, I would like to see what these unlikely things are... like rejjie's REmix shows her collecting worms from a corpse. That is unlikely for a little girl! I would love to see more interpretations of this so someone can make a video of this wonderfully quirky and so very HitRECord-y story. :)
6. Apart from tunes and instrumentals, I also found a few songs that showed a lot of talent and promise. I don't know what you guys usually do with full songs, but I have to mention 'Let Me Fall' by PaulWebbMusic. The song is simply enchanting... so honest and open. Mostly I love the lyrics. I was just thinking what wonderful illustrations and ideas could come from lines like 'if I could ever live without a heart'.
7. The other song I loved is by MrMrsAngel, 'paper cranes'. The melody is so lovely that you'd expect lovely imagery to go with it, but most of the similes are just weird, but also true. Again, I don't know HOW this can be REmixed or used, but then again, even if just listening to it inspires someone, then that's the creative process for ya. Have fun!
8. Finally, I just had to add this REC as well. Xobreexo23 is a fantastic artist, which most of you know already. She has pure talent and uses it in amazing ways. So the video Tuesday is just another hit she made for HitRECord. Not sure how this can be REmixed, but what the hell, I just had to give it a mention.
P.S. Note to composers: It'd be much easier for people to find your RECords if you add them to the collabs on HitRECord. My favorite ones are 'background music' and 'tiny tunes'. And I'm sure I'm missing lots!
"Yes, We're Sinking" played in reverse. My favorite part starts around the 1:19 mark, although I do like the beginning (what used to be the end) quite a bit too. The actual lyrics sound a little strange, which was expected, but it kinda makes me wish I could speak in some cool new language.
so I made this here instrumental track for a school project... it got an A so I guess it's good to an extent? I'm pretty proud of it but I don't know what to do with it so.. I'll share with you guys.
...this short melody was inspired by my two little neighbours;)
This is dedicated to all the lovely RECorders, with love , Bell ♥
I WISH.... I had the wizardy gift to bring some of the images in this song to life visually.... but I am happy to be inspired by those of you who do this - hearts to you all : )
some people have made little artworks of the Liker of Unlikely things and I adore them !! Thank you <3
UNLIKELY THINGS
HER MIND LIVED HIGH AMONG THE CLOUDS
IT CRIED WHEN SHE WOULD CALL IT DOWN
AND SIGHED WITH JOY WHEN IT COULD FLY AWAY.
CAUSE SHE LIKED TO DO UNLIKELY THINGS
SHE LIKED TO BE ALONE AND SING
AND FILL HER BOOKS WITH ALL THINGS SHE LOVED
THE UNLIKELY THINGS SHE LOVED
MMMM
THE UNLIKELY THINGS SHE LOVED
SHE LIKED TO DO UNLIKELY THINGS
PHOTOGRAPHING NAILS AND PINS
COLLECTIVE NOUNS AND BUTTERFLIES AND INK.
A LOVELINESS OF LADYBIRDS AND WINGS
AND TRACING FAVOURITE WORDS AND TREES
AND WATCHING BIRDS IN PUDDLES BATHE..
THE UNLIKELY THINGS SHE LOVED
MMMM
THE UNLIKELY THINGS SHE LOVED
If I could ever live without a heart
I'd live without a heart right from the start
I'd live without a heart
I'd live without a heart
And live without you
If I could ever change the way I think
I'd change the way I think within a blink
I'd change the way I think
I'd change the way I think
Stop thinking 'bout you
'Cos I am stumbling through my sanity
And I am gently falling apart
So with a heart that is heavier than lead
I'll tear myself away from you
I bid you well, that's what I'll say
I'll dig the earth and I'll bury my own heart
Under the overgrowth
The blood upon my hands will lead the way
My hands will show the world I seized the day
If I could ever take the hands of time
I'd take the hands of time, time after time
I'd take the hands of time
I'd reassess their lines
Destroy their logic
Now rest your head softly on my chest
Let's close our eyes and leave our minds to rest
Put your hand on my heart
Feel the beating of my heart
And hear the clock tick
'Cos I am floating past my sanity
And we, my man, we're running out of time
So with a heart that is heavier than lead
I'll tear myself away from you
I bid you well, that's what I'll say
I'll dig the earth and I'll bury my own heart
Under the overgrowth
The blood upon my hands will lead the way
My hands will show the world I seized the day
Let me fall
Give me this
Let me fall
Give me this
'Cos I
I'm tired of compromising compromise
And I
I just can't take anymore
So with a heart that is heavier than lead
I'll tear myself away from you
I bid you well, that's what I'll say
I'll dig the earth and I'll bury my own heart
Under the overgrowth
The blood upon my hands will lead the way
My hands will show the world I seized the day
Parachutes
Made fom old umbrellas
But just like pre-schoolers they can't hold it anymore.
And these houses me've made
Out of bricks and sticks and hay
We were so greddy we forgot about the doors.
CHORUS
Well we've fallen like a sunset into the blakets of the sea.
We march through our nightmares by the timpany beat.
Like a heart beating slowly the only hope that you've shown me
Is the candle you lit that will just burn out in the end.
Paper cranes
Flying in the rain
But just like teenagers they get grounded
And these floors that have flooded
We tried so hard to polish
But like rivers of blood they were all in vein.
Sparkling eyes
On moonless starless nights
How will they ever find their way?
These things never seem
To get clearer in dreams
So we throw them all to fate.
CHORUS
