I re-recorded this song last month sometime now that my piano is in tune, but never posted it because I'm still not totally in love with the way it ended up sounding. Anyway, I would love love LOVE for this song to be remixed or even started over from scratch. I tried to pay more attention to my timing and everything this time so it will be easier for anyone that wants to add to it. If you're interested, let me know and I'll upload the stems. I really want to take this song to a whole other world, more voices, more ambient sounds, more more more! I want the "ooo" section to sound heavenly, so if you have any ideas, please share! Chords: Verses: C Am Em C Am Em C Am Em F G Oohs: C Em (a million times) and at the end it's F Em Am then another verse and end in C

I uploaded the stems if anyone needs them!

I left this version really simple, so there's plenty of space for anyone else to add some more instruments or vocals. The chords I used are C, Am7, F and G

Lyrics:

The wind came

And blew the trees

Turned the meadow

Into a golden sea

Dandelions flew

One seed at a time

Floating away into the sky

You laid your head

Down next to mine

We watched the circus

Marching across the sky

Dandelions flew

One seed at a time

Floating away into the sky

EDIT: There are a lot of awesome REmixes that take this song to a whole other level, go check them out!

I loved wirrow's "things" tiny story and illustration, so I used it to write another tiny tune. I would love love LOVE to have this remixed, harmonies, instruments (especially where the vocals have just ended) oohs and ahhs, background noises, whatever you feel like doing. If anyone's interested, I could try to get a better recording without so much background noise. And stems. Just lemme know :)

CHORDS are G and B Minor

My daughter found the party supply stash in my craft cabinet and has been bringing me a new balloon to inflate every couple hours for three days straight. This is the end result. I was planning to just upload the raw footage, but then I realized that the song "Once Upon A Balloon" would be perfect for it! And I've never done stop motion before, so we'll just call this trial and error, but I thought it turned out alright!

fun fact - that's the piano that was used to record this little song!

I LOVE what's already been done with the Dusty Dance tiny story, but I thought I'd still share my take on it :)

EDIT: if this gets used for anything, i just realized that i forgot to mute one of the clips so there's a little bit of background noise for a few seconds (that's what you get for trying to edit video with a baby in your lap!)

so... it's saturday, i'm bored, and this original tune was just begging for a little harmony and snappy fingers.

i thought thedustdancestoo's "summer hobby" tiny story was adorable, so i wrote this short little tune to sing while i'm outside catching fireflies with my little girl :) once again, i was too lazy to do anything but record this on my ipad, so if anyone wants to use it for something, let me know and i'll try to record a better version.

Carved pumpkins with my daughter tonight and I thought we'd do one for hitrecord! I took this photo before shooting a little video (coming soon!) and I kind of fell in love with it. Happy Halloween, hope you all have fun at the show!

This is a rough recording of a song based on Metaphorest's Shadow People Poem. I forgot to turn my microphone's input down so it's a little glitchy. In a perfect world, I'd love for someone to re-record the music for me because I feel like mine's a little boring, and then I'd re-record the vocals. You know you want to...

I just saw Rochelle Boucher's Tiny Story and immediately decided to write another Tiny Tune with it. My daughter demanded to sit in my lap and sing along, and I thought it was just too adorable not to share. I'll be recording a regular version later today once my kids are asleep, and I'd love to see maybe a Tiny Film or Tiny Animation come from this!

Just thought I'd share where I RECord and where I get my inspiration most of the time. On a typical day, I sit down, stare out this window, and play the piano as long as I can.

I haven't cleaned my house in a couple of weeks (eek!), so things are getting pretty dusty. And I noticed this morning that a spider has made a new home on top of my piano, so I decided to film it instead of cleaning it.

I was originally just planning to upload this footage with no audio for others to use and edit, but it was really really boring, so at the last minute, I decided to add a couple of my songs that were written in this very spot. But please, feel free to use this footage for whatever you like, I'm definitely not a video editor!

Another Tiny Tune inspired by a Tiny Story! Enjoy :) And don't forget to check out the rest of the Tiny Tunes Collaboration!

my daughter millie :)

To: crane_crafter From: your secret santa :D

I was thrilled when Kat told me I had crane_crafter's name for Secret Santa, I was immediately inspired by all of her beautiful paper cranes that she makes, and she's such a lovely person too. I hope this little song reaches you in Scotland and makes you smile! Happy holidays!

I also left plenty of room for remixing if anyone would like to add some more instruments or harmonies! or maybe an animation or stop motion film??

Lyrics:

I write you a letter on a paper crane

And then I watch it fly away

Across the country, over the sea

A little gift to you from me

I sing you a song to a mockingbird

and watch it fly across the world

I really hope he gets there soon

to sing to you this tiny tune

Do do do doo...

Chords:

C, G, F, G

recorded this on my ipad while my husband was in the other room trying to get our crying baby boy to sleep. he learned how to climb out of his crib last week and pretty much hasn't slept since. i'll record a better version if we ever get past this and i get to play the piano again :/ EDIT- I think I agree with everyone else and like the raw sound & background noises, but if someone wants me to re-record this so the timing isn't off (for easier remixing) and maybe a little less pitchiness with my voice, just ask me :)

blurry christmas lights AND dancing dust, can it really get any better than this?

i left this footage pretty much unedited (minus the parts of my kids bumping into the camera that i decided to take out). christmas lights are one of my favorite things, blurry ones are even better, and this dust is just magical. it kinda reminds me of snow, which we sadly don't get much of here in mississippi. i hope this inspires someone to make something wintery and beautiful :)

i just added the background music out of boredom. it's called "flurry" and it was my first RECord i ever posted here almost a year ago, i can't believe it's been that long already!

**disclaimer: i mayyy have shaken an old blanket in front of the camera to get extra dusts in a few shots. just didn't want anyone thinking my house is always this dusty. i have way too many dusty video RECords (dusty dance, dusty piano) - maybe it's a sign that i should clean my house.

I took my daughter to my grandpa's farm a few days ago & she happened to be wearing her red coat, so I stole a basket from my mom's house and we went for a walk in the woods. Here's the first half. (400mb max, grrr!) I muted the clips because she was talking most of the way through it saying things like "do you think we'll see a monkey in the forest?" Yeah, probably not in Mississippi...

2nd half can be found here: http://hitrecord.org/records/640332

I might try to get more footage a little later in the day if anyone wants it, my memory card was pretty full with other stuff when I shot this so I didn't quite get what I wanted. And I have a 1080 version if someone needs it, but the file is too large to upload here.

STEMS can be found in the results :)

I loved thedustdancestoo's poem "to: a broken-hearted butterfly" that he wrote on tumblr and pretty much begged him to upload it to hitrecord so I could use it to write a song. Half a year later... I finally got around to recording it. (sorry...)

i'd love to have this remixed, maybe add some strings? i'd also love to see this used in a video or animation.

i think this needs a tiny story.

"I just need some time away

to remember why I stay"

90 bpm, STEMS for remixing in the results

my microphone seems to be doing weird things lately. like sounding like i put some weird muffled telephone effect on it when i didn't. or maybe that's just my voice. yay for bronchitis!

I'd love to have this remixed, maybe with some additional instruments, percussion or harmonies. I can also see this song used in a Tiny Film for the "Stay Away" tiny story. Maybe with some footage of someone driving and having good and bad flashbacks or something.
