Well, this weekend I wrote 5 songs (I kept getting sudden inspirations) and today I wrote tons of lyrics. I realized that I love ska, and I've always wanted to record a major ska project. So I am currently fine tuning what I wrote, I will then get a band together teach them the material and eventually (once they have learned all of it) record. This has been something I've always wanted to do and I'm very excited...

Updates to come as they occur

. I hope to have a great piece of ska done by the end of the year.

Ok, I wrote the first verse to the song 'Cold Steel Heart, Clenched Iron Fist' today. My goal is to have the other three done by the end of the week (I did the chorus over the weekend). Horn-lines for this song are complete.

The song Gamblin' With The Devil is completely written (i.e. sheet music and lyrics have been sent out).

More updates to come!

basically you have lyrics and just music sheet, rigth? Or are you recording each sounds separately then putting them on top of each others using a sound editor afterward? I remember dysfunction did this once for one of his song

Yeah, basically I have 50% of the music (and 5% of the lyrics) written. As I complete songs I send copies of the sheet music and recordings of bass playing the part (in case they have trouble understanding it) to the musicians. Once it's all written, and we've all practiced the music together I'm gonna take it to a studio and record the music.

Cold Steel Heart, Clenched Iron Fist is done and has been sent out to the members

.

On to the next song (yay, this one is an instrumental and doesn't have lyrics

).

Well, I worked today on getting an overall story for the album. Yay rock opera!

Speler · « **Reply #9 on:** November 09, 2007, 01:21:00 pm »

Well, we're getting together next Tuesday to practice the first three songs (which are now complete

) as a group.

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #10 on:** November 09, 2007, 01:23:00 pm »

Nice! Will you record some for us?

Speler · « **Reply #11 on:** November 09, 2007, 01:24:00 pm »

No recordings till the songs are complete

. However, I will upload the lyrics when they are all complete as well as some sheet music at some point.

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #12 on:** November 09, 2007, 01:32:00 pm »

cool

I hope recording will not be cancelled, you should really get a new guy for this

Speler · « **Reply #13 on:** November 09, 2007, 02:34:00 pm »

Oh, you meant that recording project

. Yeah, we're looking for a new guy to record us... this is something completely unrelated

. You'll get those in a week or two...
