Break It Down Now
This afternoon/ evening I spent recording a new song for the Pure Pwnage television that will be appearing on Showcase in March 2010.
The song will be featured in Episode 4 of Season 1. Ye-ah!!
The song is a dance song, and it is meant to be like a cover a Lady Gaga song so its dance/ pop genre. This was a totally new experience for me because I have been trained classically my whole life. That means you sing for the stage, with vibrata, and you sing notes in your range.
However, with audio software you can make your voice song like just about anything. There were a couple of notes that I couldn't belt, but all I did was sing them normally and the software made it sound like I was belting (so its a bit of cheat in one specific part of the song!). And then at the end of every phrase I would hold the note, and default into the vibrata, however with the equalizer on it distorts the recorded sound when you do that. So I had to hold vowel sound like "meeeee" with just a whole sound (no vibrata). That was like learning how to walk again- it just comes naturally to sing vibrata!!
The final product sounds pretty hot. So listen out for it in March when the show goes live!
