This week I felt a bit disappointed in myself because I have so many great ideas I just don’t know how to translate them from a page/in my head onto a DAW to be able to finish them and turn them into full songs. It has been getting in the way of me completing a song at the moment, because as I have never had my own DAW before I have very little experience recording myself and therefore have been spending ages trying to record a single guitar part and have become very frustrated cause I can't get it to sound right. Because of this I am going to work on condensing my ideas and making sure I know what I want before I go and put them on the DAW, because this way I will spend less time frustrated for not knowing what to do.
However, I am finding the Production lessons very helpful and aim to go back through last terms content and make notes in my notebook to be able to have something physical to refer back to when I get stuck recording.
My main focus this week is to try and channel my upset with the current situation of the world towards creating art for myself, because ultimately, there is nothing else to do. I am going to practice putting less pressure on myself so I can focus more on what I am doing and less on what I am scared of doing/what is stressing me out.
Furthermore, I have realised I am very good at writing metaphorical lyrics that set a scene very well. Here are the first few lyrics I wrote for the verse in Uptight Insights:
