[Update: Eeps! It sounds like the lyrics may have shifted slightly of tempo too. I will re-record later this week.]
I love that TheSerpentTheCharmer brought xanlee and Ryan Patrick's recorders together, especially his additional lyrics. I heard a different combination in my head, so I thought I would give it a shot.
Sadly, I no longer have a mic so this is really rough on with my MacBook's internal mic just to get the idea out there… I know I have a couple of notes & tone off, but my cat started meowing after this take and I had to stop recording. If people seem to like the direction I was starting to go in, I will work on it further and get myself re-recorded on better equipment and more matched up. This is really wide open for further remixing and/or resinging.
I did this because of a challenge KevinMaistros gave me. It has been ages since I have recorded my voice, so I am nervous as hell to release this. In fact, I know you can actually hear the hesitation in my voice… eeks! Maybe that hesitation actually adds to the emotion of this song? haha You be the judge. What do you think?
Kevin, it's your turn! lol
Lyrics (only slight changes) :
You built me a home... inside your heart.
But the walls they started cracking, started falling apart.
So I keep on fixing, making my repairs,
as my home it fell around me, 'til it was no longer there.
Find your way ("back" added on 2nd time) home, before you catch a cold.
Find your way in, find someone to hold.
This is for the "We Are hitRECord" collaboration - http://www.hitrecord.org/collaborations/7280
In an effort to be less camera shy, I gave this a shot. In retrospect I shoud have been wearing my red button -d'oh! - and I should have had someone else shoot me on a decent camera and audio capture... Maybe we can do some higher quality clips for this at the Awesome House in June, Kevin?
Exactly as the title says. A red swirl dots experiment.
I am looking forward to see what can become of this - go!
Re: "Love" & the hitrecord house's "connecting the dots" themes.
I just remembered I had this dot-painting that I did in school a couple years ago. It is a representation of my lovely outdoor wedding day, but as it is so abstract I am sure it can be reMIXed into all sorts of other RECorders. The file is large & high-res, so there is a lot of fun texture and color you can rip from it - have fun!

I get my fill of inspiration every day sometimes it comes with a side dish of fear a sprinkle of self doubt and a pinch of heartache... but other ... |

I have been uploading so many reMIXes, I thought it was time for an original. This is a Still (keyframe #106) from an animation I am currently finishing up.
I created this on un-inked scraperbord by making a hell of a lot of green Sharpie marker swirls, enough to make this completely green, then I added detail with India ink and black Sharpie, and finally carved the sh*t out of it with scratch tools to bring back to white elements. It turned out to be a sort of zen doodle.
Not sure what the community will do with this... but I cannot wait to see.
Again, by <3
