Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where it falls, there will it lie

Alrighty, so I had the day off from work today and spent a little time finishing up a song I was working on. I just needed to add vocals to it, and I tried spending some time not rushing through them (I tried).

Overall, the song is maybe a bit long but this is the first song I’ve recorded with my new line 6 POD xt (which I am thoroughly enjoying). So maybe I got a little carried away on the length.

I ran everything through the POD except for the drum loops (which should be obvious).

There is some clipping on the main vocal parts, it sounds worse now then when I was recording it, and it didn’t bother me much then, but it does a little bit more now. I should have fixed it, but was having really just wanting to get stuff down. Anyway, I’ll have to fix those at some point.

The solo/instrumental part contains room for improvement as well. I’m no shredder so you won’t hear any of that (yet, maybe I’ll get a little better) and I was really just initially playing around with the POD. Something a little different and shorter could be added into the mix.

It’s been a bit since I’ve played bass, but I’m happy with the bass line I can up with. I think it has a nice flow.

Anyway, enough blabbing, please give it a listen and constructive criticism is always, always always, appreciated it.

What Dreams May Come

PS: yeah, sorry if you think the title is booty. I needed one, it popped in my head, and I thought, why not go with the weird awkward title from a movie? Feel free to suggest alternatives if you want.
