<title>All That I Can Be</title>
<link>http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/2199.html</link>
<description>Well Here it is. The first track off my piano EP. (well actually the second, this is just the first I've uploaded)

The vocals were double tracked and recorded in my friend's flat using some pretty basic gear. The piano was recorded in a 300 year old chapel on a grand piano. Which had an extremely loud pedal but it's not too noticable thankfully.

My good friend Bella put double bass in a few of the tracks which sounds beautiful.

VERSE 1

I know all the things that people say I hear them everyday.
And I know all the things you like and dislike in me.
But I’m not ready for this kind of conversation where you break down,
What I am and what i wish that I could be.

I’m this passive little angel underneath it all,
But come across as something harder to digest, I guess.
When i’m older and i’m wiser I will know my weaker side,
But for now I’m young and bold enough with nothing here to hide.

CHORUS:

And I,
Had always been the same one there.
And I,
Am not the one who’s changed round here 

X2

Didn’t you notice that?

VERSE 2

I’m aware of all remarks in absence of my presence,
I’m well informed of what i should and shouldn’t say.
And I have trouble with my foot and what I put it in,
I am walking I am moving but I only seem to stay.

I am sure I’ll never change i’ll probably always stay the same,
There’s nothing left I haven’t lost before that I can’t lose again.
So i’ll continue on my way before I go I’d like to say,
I’m only one man. With two hands. I’m all that I can be.

CHORUS:

OUTRO:

I’m only one man with two hands I’m all that I can be.
(Two hands I am all I can be)

I’m only one man with two hands I’m all that I can be.
(Two hands I am all I can be)

I’m only one man with two hands I’m all that I can be.
(Two hands I am all I can be)

This was a BLAST, living out a fantasy as a rapper.......... lmao. If you don't laugh you aint got no funny bone,I don't care who you are that's funny right there.Feel free to sing along! For those who are impatient the fun begins at 1 minute 8 secs.I don't know if this is battle worthy but this post has got me the most responses so I have entered it in the August battle.So like my fellow homie  P Diddy says.... VOTE OR DIE!

Watch'n TV my tumbly gets rumbly                             
I stumbly fumbly run for the fridge
Not sure what me wants or what me

HMMMMMMMMM
I feel a tap on my shoulder and I can
smell something sweet, the aroma 
catches my attention, If your hungry
I got what ya need,  follow me around
the kitchen
Jelly,  Jelly in a my belly
Jelly,  Jelly in a my belly           
She slowly seduced me, I became

He's  real sticky and has big nuts, 
He's got a lovely tan
Jelly, Jelly in a my belly

Skippy peanut butter n'jelly
Busted a cap in the  mistress of the night
I growled and moaned to the very last bite
her death was untimly but she had to go
Now I got's to   run to my corner  store
ham and cheese they just don't cut it
havin a fire with a hole in your bucket
Sloppin  Jelly on  soother and Yo  I'll suck it
come on everybody    recite it

 Jelly,  Jelly in a my belly
 Jelly,  Jelly in a my belly

Now don't you think I forgot about skippy
4:20 on the clock, He starts to get lippy
Talkin all this shit I have  big nuts 
So I silenced the bitch inside  my guts
Now all alone cause I killed my friends
I was only hungry it was never the plan
Self hunger I shouted as I took  the stand
Pounds  his gavel I'm a free man  sing it!

<title>Paint Your Target (Acu)</title>
<link>http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/3485.html</link>
<description>Paint Your Target (Acoustic)

This song was wrote a while ago.

Here's an acoustic version.

Lyrics:

You hide it everytime you miss,
Impatience waits around for me,
You dance under the question mark,
Without even trying.

I'm just not sure it's gonna work,
I'm just not sure it's gonna work.

You can burn it all,
Rally around the table if you want to,
Just to argue out the last scenes of us,
You can end it all,
I'm sorry enough to tell you that I'm okay and I'm never gonna see you again

The killers walking amongst us,
Look around they'll find your ashes,
You cradle over your mistakes,
And every heart you'll ever break

I'm just not sure it's gonna work,
I'm just not sure it's gonna work.

You can burn it all,
Rally around the table if you want to,
Just to argue out the last scenes of us,
You can end it all,
I'm sorry enough to tell you that I'm okay and I'm never gonna see you again

You stumble through questions that you could never answer,
The barrel is loaded so go and paint your target [x2]

You can burn it all,
Rally around the table if you want to,
Just to argue out the last scenes of us,
You can end it all,
I'm sorry enough to tell you that I'm okay</description>

<description>Finally! It works! this is quite seriously my 6th attempt at getting this song to load and play. Well done Chester. Well done.

Yes, so this is an old song... but has always held sentimental value with me :)

Check out my other stuff, I load another 2 songs today. A piano one, and then half a song... because i lost the other half... long story.

Seems a lot of people are adding lyrics. So I thought I'd put mine on a couple of songs :)


VERSE 1

So you’ve run away again?
And left nothing in your place.
Except a shadow and a sin,
Etched forever in your space.

PRECHORUS:

Than she turns to you and smiles,
At where you’ve been.
And says life ain’t,
Evergreen.

CHORUS:

Come fall down,
Get blown around.
You’re a leaf up in the air,
And it’s the autumn of your year.

VERSE 2

Well time is coming round the bend,
It seems you try too hard to smile.
And it’s only near the end,
That you find your inner child.

PRECHORUS:
It’s always,
Inbetween.
That you find life ain’t,
Evergreen.

CHORUS:

Come fall down,
Get blown around.
You’re a leaf up in the air,
And it’s the autumn of your year. X2

OUTRO:

You’re a leaf up in the air,
And it’s the autumn of your year.
Your year.

<title>Vertigo</title>
<link>http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/1462.html</link>
<description>This song was written in three stages of my life (sad ones), so the song is actually a vomit of my soul :p
i fucked up a couple of times while recording, but i never fixed theses problems..... otherwise it should be fine..



UPDATE: thanx for all the comments... They really are constructive and informative :)
For all of you who want to hear more..... well.... u'll have to wait a bit
My father passed away a few days ago (4th of January)... so I'll be traveling to Chile (after 3 years in Norway) carrying his ashes... anyway, i think this trip and this experience might help me to get inspired and trigger some kind of musical reaction from my fingers.

<title>Fruityloops randomness</title>
<link>http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/6.html</link>
<description>&quot;Dave why on earth are you doing something in fruityloops? Don't you play guitar?&quot;

Yeah that discussion about the FL plugins got me thinking... it's been about 5 years since I really worked with fruityloops 3 with the DJ's at college, since then I've just been using it for drum loops... but I thought it would be fun to have a play around!

This is only one min long but I thought it would be fun to make a short, simple track and master it fat!

Things I did:

Realised that I now suck at FL :-(
Used the pluck and Sytrus generators. They effing rule.
Used delay/reverb and EQ to make interesting drums sounds, and worked on different rhythms together.
Used EQ and panning to differentiate the different bits in the mix.
Used mastering to widen, fatten and enhance the sound, especially the low freqs.

Things I learned:

As above, I suck at Fruityloops.

The Fruityloops bundled compressor *IS* rubbish. An attack time below 5ms causes distortion, and it doesn't work properly because peaks still manage to get through the compressor.

The Fruityloops bundled reverb is rubbish.

So if you use fruityloops - get some VSTs in there!

Peace.</description>
