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.

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.

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 :)
