  • A quick original song from me, on the Novation Circuit again. Lyrics and explanation of my weird recording method under here...
    Break under the waves that call your name
    Shake under the weight of all you made
    Even though it’s hard to forget
    All of the shadows that descend
    Take all of the fears you had away
    Wake up from the sleep that bears the cost
    Ache deep in your heart for all you lost
    As the morning comes to find you
    And as the night is at an end
    Make all your amends and seize the day
    CHORUS
    Pull back from the tide that drew you in
    Face into the sun that warmed your skin
    Sing out for the ones who caused you pain
    Rise up and be happy once again
    Look out from the shore to see the sky
    Let go of the past and question why
    Sing out for the ones who caused you pain
    Rise up and be happy once again
    Break under the waves that call your name
    Shake under the weight of all you made
    Even though it’s hard to forget
    All of the shadows that descend
    Take all of the fears you had away
    CHORUS
    Pull back from the tide that drew you in
    Face into the sun that warmed your skin
    Sing out for the ones who caused you pain
    Rise up and be happy once again
    Look out from the shore to see the sky
    Let go of the past and question why
    Sing out for the ones who caused you pain
    Rise up and be happy once again
    My 8-bit EP, Home, is out on WIAIWYA now: wiaiwya.bandca...
    Someone asked how I recorded this - this is how:
    USB cardioid mic into Ableton, track muted; circuit into iRig Pro into Ableton, track soloed but very low volume so I can just hear it enough to sing with but there's not much bleed into the mic and I can mix them separately. I'm mostly using visual feedback from the Circuit to sing to. I hate performing with headphones enough that I'd rather do it like this even though I know it's a stupid setup.

    Hi everyone. Sorry for the gap in videos. I am going to do an explanation/songwriting tutorial for Break as soon as I possibly can. Everything has got a little overwhelming since I am dealing with getting my album made, teaching a university course, and a health issue on top of my PhD. I am hoping in the next few weeks I'll be able to get this channel up and running again. Thank you all for subscribing and sticking with me! x

    What a wonderful song with just a Novation Circuit and a beautiful voice. Love seeing a Critter & Guitari Pocket Piano on your desk, too. I like using large expensive synthesizers, plus small economical devices. You do such a great job with that Circuit. I posted this video on the Novation Circuit Users group page on Facebook. Keep up the great work. Your voice is....DREAMY PURE. Possibly the best female voice in music today ~ !!!!!!

    So happy I found this...I purchased a novation a month ago and kept coming across jam and "exploration" sessions only using the novation, really no songs with voice, I was thinking I made a mistake purchasing it, but now I'm feeling better!

    • @Deerful
      @Deerful  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ah I'm so glad! I am definitely a planner not a jammer, I don't know why there aren't more of us using it. It's definitely limited as a songwriting tool but if you write in a remotely loop-based way it's a great creative tool. I hope you put some of the things you make with it on TH-cam, I just followed you, your stuff is amazing!

    • @coreenamusic
      @coreenamusic 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Deerful thank you for listening to my music ☺️ I needed a live set that was less bulky and easily transportable, before, I had a computer with abelton, 61 keys keyboard, kp3, interface, it was too much! I got the novation hoping to use it for all those things in one, that and a rc-505 vocal looper (which I love). Look forward to hearing more from you, really dig your music!

    • @Deerful
      @Deerful  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh I know that feeling! I have a rule that my whole live setup has to fit in a backpack now and I recommend it. ;) I use an Electribe live right now because the 8-bar patterns on the Circuit weren't quite enough, but the Circuit is nicer to play, I hope you get lots of use out of it. Also I really want a vocal looper! ONE DAY. Would love to hear what you sound like live :)

    • @coreenamusic
      @coreenamusic 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Deerful yes!!! Backpack ✨I'm not sure where you'r located but I live and am from Seattle, wa and moving soon to Berlin, if we are ever in the same city we should be sure to catch each other's live shows!

    Glad to see a full song on the Novation Circuit instead of bleep bloop minimal techno stuff. What is processing your voice in Ableton? I hear harmonies during the chorus.

    • @Deerful
      @Deerful  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      edthewave harmonies were overdubbed. I recorded the lead vocal and the backing into Ableton in one go while shooting the video in Quicktime (see video description), overdubbed harmonies, added a bit of reverb and compression to everything, exported and synced the video and audio. I dunno if this is a normal way of doing it but it's how I always do it, I just record everything dry and add effects afterwards.
