So my computer is down. It may be a little while until i can update i don't like blogging from computers that aren't mine :( i should have backed up my hd.

Realizations...

I'm reminded of something that i say and will stand by until the day that I die.

Without love there is no life.

God loves us therefore we exist.

As a people we need to love more. The world is already filled with hate and rage. Now it's time for us to make it better. To hold the world to a higher standard by standing up for what is right and never backing down or abandoning true love, mercy, forgiveness, willingness to help out your fellow man, and most importantly each other.

We need love to live. Love is at the very basis of life and creation. The most magnificent achievements that we as men accomplish are driven by love for that aspect of life the vast majority of the time. As you love more and become more genuine there will be more hurt in your life but the love that you experience will be like no other. I just want to encourage all of you to love like there is no tomorrow because tomorrow isn't promised. I am also challenging myself to change the way i think and carry out my life. :) We can do this. I love you all.

About life...

When i put up this blog i didn't want it to be a place where i put my feelings and shared with the world what i'm dealing with internally. Didn't want it to be a vent page. But then i read the title again. These are songster scribblins. I sing about life. I decided to look the word up and was like... whoa... i called myself this without really knowing it was an actual defined word.
songster:definition


Merriam Webster defines a songster as:
1: one that sings with skill
2: songbook

Synonyms: caroler (or caroller), singer, vocalist, vocalizer, voice
Related Words: belter; crooner, harmonizer, hummer, warbler, yodeler; serenader; cantor, chanter, chorister; chansonnier; chanteuse, songstress; bard, troubador


Wikipedia has a good starting point in explaining what a songster is. check out some of the songsters they list. I want to be a part of history in music. Not for the glory and all that but for the experience. Becoming a part of history means i'm going to have some good times touch some good people and have a great time doing it. I want to spread music. Soon i will be in a band. I'm not going to let it become this thing we talk about for years and then never actually do. I want to live more than the dream... i want to live my destiny.

This is just a test

Nothing Yet

I've been using the mic and i like it alot. Nothing to post yet soon though I'll have up some covers and whatnot. I haven't been in the best frame of mind place. I'm going to make it a goal to record at least one song/ thing/ series of things a week. It may be an actual cover of a song or it could be a voice demo reel type thing. Maybe even an actual audition for a voice-over spot. You never know. I'm going to record nature one day and have that be ambient sound in the back of a track. :) There is a certain specific sound i could record all day long :) I would do it happily. Oh and you all just lost the game... lol. Sorry it was bound to happen sooner or later. Right now I'm listening to Pomplamoose. So good. Listening to their version of O Come All Ye Faithful. Makes me want to do a Christmas Album haha :) Well i must be off.

Short post

I GOT THE CABLE!!!!!! Let's do some damage lol. And by damage i mean the kind that's good haha. I gots ta go now... I'm bout to have me some fun :) I just need my headphones now.

Ello everybody. So it's official. I have my mic now, ram for the mac, and a better pair of headphones on the way :) i got the models mixed up i have the ksm27 as opposed to the ksm32 but the one i have is still legit and super versatile. i still need a cable for the mic so i can get some stuff up soon. i should have a cable on Monday :) I had a little recording sesh with my cousin in the bathroom haha. had everything set up and there wasn't much space lol the bathroom is kinda narrow. i plan on building a little mock vocal booth in a corner in my room lol. Consisting of cardboard, sheets, and that cheap bead foam you get at walmart or wherever lol. I'm hungry... i think i'll go make some oatmeal now. :)

Blog

Ok so a friend of mine has agreed to be a benefactor of sorts lol. So i'll have my mic and everythingish i need to get some real stuff going in the right direction in the next week. Looking forward to gettting so quality recordings and learning how to use a Really nice condenser properly lol. Going to rerecord my first hit among my friends haha, Word To Ya Motha. :P REALLY looking forward to getting the mic and a decent pair of headphones that can last my rugged travel life for more than a month haha or just don't plain suck... Anyway once i figure out how to post music in the blog like embed it i'll do it and you can hear what i'm up to haha. probably just use limelinx haha.well night all i'm quite tired only got 3 1/2 hours of sleep last night. But apparentlyi need to start getting used to that. In my field that's normal lol. Goodnight world. Goodnight beautiful people. Oh and i really want to learn Korean still :)

Blah Blah

I seem to have failed again at finishing something productive yesterday. I can hear the music but then sometimes when i come back to it it's like what was i thinking. This sounds HORRIBLE... anyway... guess that just means i need to pick myself up and try again :) Started working some more on the choral piece. I love the human voice i have a lot of ideas i want to use but i'm not sure whether or not i'll finish this piece in time for my friends concert. even if i can i need to make the parts easy enough to be learned by the end of this month... OH CRAP!!! i don;t have very much time. I need to do this. well i need to get off of here so i can take a quick shower and be on my way. should see you all soon with some music :D Power to the language of love :) OH and i finally have a mac...i mean it's "ancient" Ibook G4 1.2 gHz, 256mb of RAM (upgradeable to 1.25gb) 27gb of actual memory space, and running OSX 10.4.11 using Garageband 2.0.2 haha. I really miss Logic lol. One day soon. if anyone knows of any jobs lemme know :)

Why am i so antisocial so suddenly? This blog is slowly turnin into a personal account of my life. So not intended. I'll start recording and putting up clips.

Music again :)

So today i got to hang with one of my close friends and talk about music and equipment and voice acting :D it was great time. I really sincerely and truly love music and sound in it's entirety but i still lack the passion i once had... It's still in me i can feel it. on a side note... stuff...

Music

Music speaks for itself. I love it. I love Chamber and all those in it. :) I have nothing more to say tonight. goodnight.

The music...

The music i hear a feel... the poetry i can taste and see growing deep within me trying to break out of this shell that is my mind to spill onto the page and twitch through my fingertips to hit the keyboard and convey the thoughts into actions visible to other eyes.

I'm sitting here listening to some Nas and working on a choral piece. I got a lot more than i had done tonight... Nas is seriously one of the sickest rappers ever. I like rap a lot. Rhythm and poetry. I have the poetry and i have the rhythm. I want to rap but be an MC... not really sure but i know i want to put rhythm and words together no matter the topic. Alot of what i say is nonsensical or just not what you would expect to hear someone actually rap about... No one does it so it leaves it open for me to have free flow kinda constantly changing topic within the rhyme. I have a term for it but i don;t want to put it here because the whole world has access to it lol. But yeah haha. Well i'm going to go now. I want to let music consume me. Passion FLOW!!!!

My music is to share. I want to share it all with you. God gave me something to spread. I would be a fool and a butt not to use what is in me. I love you all.

Where anything is a possibility and if i mess up i can always get back up and try again. Or make it better. I want to just write what i hear for you all.

For the past 2 years of my life. I 'm ready to write again and actually get somewhere. I want to fearless in music again. See it through the eyes of a child.

No blog in a while as you can see. Nothing to write really i guess. I'm waiting for my metaphorical spring to come. I feel as though I've been hibernating

So much for that...

So much for the blog-a-day venture lol. My pre-amp kit came in today and i'm excited to start assembling it :) i need to get a new soldering iron though. one that will allow me to get a fresh start learning how to solder properly with a clean tip... i just about wrecked my iron and i need more solder. The solder i have now is way too thick lol. i have 2 hours to recycle some bottle shower and pack for tonight. CHAMBER TONIGHT!!! SOOO EXCITED!!! :) Well i guess i'll be going now. Still far behind on my choral piece... dang...

why i try to paint

I LOVE to paint. :) While music is my thing i enjoy painting. I just like to let my hand go and see what happens rarely do i ever start with an idea of what i want to do. I mean i've tried a few times with drawing and liked it some of the time but most of the time i didn't really care for my end result lol.
When i get my "studio" set up i need to have a corner devoted to painting and drawing lol :) It gives me a form of release that singing and playing music don't. I listen music and just let the paint take me away. It's just so calming and such a peaceful time. Kind of like crocheting is for me only it's like i'm in a calm cool lake looking up at the Autumn Sky taking in the scene of the brown and auburn leaves drifting from the tops of trees. i think i'll paint tomorrow maybe if i feel like setting my station up lol. Lots of preparation sine i have it all stored cuz there's no room in my room to have it out all the time :( plus this computer takes up a lot of desk space.
So I found out that this little mic i have is really a great mic all i needed was an interface to record it with to really bring out it's potential lol. Mic'd a piano and it sounded wonderful. I need to play around with the placement some more but i mean dang SOOO good lol. Once i get a job and get money so i can buy stuff and experiment i'll actually have some musicy things to talk about :) Through the litte bit that i've heard about cables and the small amount that i have learned in the past 2 weeks at citrus SOO much has opened up in my world of possibilities lol. I feel kind of dumb and noobish but just because i can and i like to do things that normally aren't done i want to make a mic cable... but not just any mic cable. i mean i plan to build my own cables but this one is going to a y-cable that i don't think many people have seen and it's all for my special mic... it's going to have the 1/8 inch mono female connectors combine to one xlr input. Basically taking a stereo mic and putting it into a single balanced channel. This way i can use it live in more locations if i so choose :D it'd be real fun to mic guitar with on stage :P We'll cross the stage micing bridge when we get to it lol.
I just love the little thing and i can't wait to get to J-lords tomorrow to have another little mic shootout. But this time it will be all of my mics :) i wish i could shootout the KSM32 tomorrow too maybe if i can sell a kidney lol jk jk i like my kidneys where they are... inside me lol. Well night all of you readers.

Long time no blog wow I've just been like bleh but yeah and my computer has been a butt. I'll try to blog tonight.
