Studio Updates Part 4


What is that you see? Well, that is our new song Electromatic, in the flesh and bones and it is now...complete! The song was mixed and rendered into an MP3 in 2 hours! After a long process of recording in the numerous recording sessions for this song, it all paid off. I would like to say that this EP will be released in late March. There is no set date yet. The date will be set soon including the Symphony No. 909 remix EP. I'm excited for these 2 EPs.

Studio Updates Part 3

Yesterday, we almost finished our first new track. All the lyrics have been recorded and hopefully the single EP will be out in March.

The song is called "Electromatic" and it is about a girl being in love with a guy who "Makes her Electromatic." Since I am dating "Electromatic" (a.k.a. Zach), it is very approprate for us. He is my inspiration for most of the lyrics that I write. The song is 3-4 minutes long and maybe we will have a preview with vocals coming out soon. [Hint Hint ;)] The single EP, which I said will be coming out in March, but before that, a remix EP for "Symphony No. 909" will come out before the "Electromatic" single EP.

Our next project is to finish our other short preview, "Preview 2." We have a few of the vocals recorded but we just need to finish them and then edit like crazy. This song is going to have a completely different style than "Electromatic." Instead of being fun and catchy, "Preview 2," which doesn't have a set name yet, is personal to me. It has more edge to it and it's very dramatic. We hope to have it finished soon, but we don't have a set date on that one yet.

Keep rocking. :)

Electromatic Is Not Dead???

I offically decided to NOT end Electromatic. Here's the main reason why.

I enjoyed it too much. It really helped me explore a lot of different genres of electronic music and it opened my eyes to all this music that I've never even knew existed. Even though Sebon will be my main project, Electromatic will be on the side so I can create all of these different styles of music and gain more knowledge in it. So, I'm going to continue with completing these 2 albums that never got finished: "The End To All Knowledge" and "The Vault Of Complete Misunderstanding". Further information will be released soon.

Sebon: Freestyle Tracks Pt. 1 "It's Not Far From The Edge"

So, your all wondering if I'm ever going to come out with anything soon? Well, here you go.

So what is a Freestyle Track?
A Freestyle Track is a track that I write and mix in about an hour. They're freestyle because I make a loop in less than 5 minutes by looping 2 measures on my computer. Then I make the loop without stopping the 2 measures in those 5 minutes. After all of that, I use the last 30-45 minutes to make a song out of it. Also, each track will come with an obscure picture that I have taken from my camera in the past.

This first Freestyle Track is called "It's Not Far From The Edge". This track was completed in 45 minutes from scratch. I had no idea of how this track would turn out to be when I made the 2 measure loop. The only sample I used in this song was Bee Gee's "Stayin' Alive". With out anymore delay, here's my first Freestyle Track!

Track Made: 12/27/09
Track Released: 12/27/09

Studio Updates Part 2


On Sunday the 13th, Terri and I had the opportunity to officially start the recording process for our new album coming out next year. Or that’s what we hope.

We started recording vocals and a little bit of guitar for the song “Now I See.” This song is about a girl that was in love with a boy, but it was a mistake (of course lol). She regretted loving that boy and realized it was a waste of time. Then out of nowhere, she found someone better that will stay with her till the end. The lyrics are more meaningful than a lot of those stupid pop songs that you hear on the radio, because these songs come from the heart and we write what we want to.

Anyways, it was a really fun recording session. It went better than I expected. Usually, my computer slows down when vocals are recording. I don’t know why, but it does. I did find a way to have it not happen. So, all the vocals were recorded perfectly. That got me excited. We did about 30-40 takes for singing alone. We did these many takes to make sure we had it perfect. They were absolutely amazing. We just did a lot to make sure we had each pitch perfect, which they were.

For guitar, I used my Austin acoustic guitar to record the guitar parts in the intro in the song to get a feel of what I should do in the future. This week I’ll work on the guitar parts more and mix the vocals. Hopefully in a couple weeks we’ll have our first song completely done!
