A few years ago now at The Union League in Philly. I was attending a Valley Forge reunion with the brothers. I recorded a song about their plight but with a full band on the recording. At last I found an intune piano, so I figured out how to play and sing the tune with only piano. I think it works better with just a piano and vocal. I may re_record it someday. Possibly changing the lyrics as well. Not always a good shot while singing but I thank the photographer for catching it.

🎡✨ The circle of life is all around us, and music is the soundtrack of our journey from youth to old age! Whether it’s the joyful tunes of childhood or the nostalgic melodies that remind us of our past, every note captures a moment in time. 🎶

Couple things happening this week.

1) I received my 1st income from my in-store music with Faded Media.

2) I have a private pitch with an LA based supervisor to pitch 2 songs for use in sync music. Introducing my brand to him for future consideration. No fee as it was requested by One-stop music. He connected with me on linkedin so another good sign he wanted to remember my music, Rock On!

So maybe this is a good sign :>)

I will be pitching....RISE and "It's not too late" for songs

Here's a remake cover I did engineering wise way back in 1985 in Philly. This tune made it on a cover album of only David Bowie tunes, picked by David himself. I had soooo much fun with Loose Ends from England. I became good buds with Carl, I wish I could say hello to him again. This was so fun to contribute too but giving them that Philly sound of the day. Check it out, this is a big credit of mine!

--Recording Analog from the 80's-- (part 5)

You have a finite amount of tracks in analog. So many ways to keep it under control but many you have to live with so experience is key.
After the basic tracks are recorded it's time for overdubs and vocal production. A good example of combining tracks would be the background vocals. Easily 6 tracks minimum. 2 for low voice, 2 for mid voice and 2 for high voice. Sometimes those would be doubled to 12 performance tracks. You can't use 12 tracks just for that in the end out of 24, so the goal was to blend them properly and see where they ride in the track. Tons of adjustments later they are sounding right in the track.
Now it's time to bounce them to a stereo pair of tracks.
If they repeated in the song there was another process to get them where they belong in the rest of the song. So we would send just the background vocals to another 2 track recorder (1/2 inch tape) so we could send them back to the 24 track on the fly. We would physically time playing the 2 track recording into the record where they belong. This took precise planning to do correctly time wise.
We called them fly-ins and we could also do that for anything else if we were looking for consistency which is vital to radio quality production.
Going backwards here, if it was a group of singers at the same time, we wouldn't need twelve tracks but the same process was usually applied.
Fly-ins are an eye-opening subject in analog recording and I may go back to explain more thoroughly later.
Stay tuned for part 6
