So what have I got musically going on at the moment

Posted by Troisnyx - May 23rd, 2018


Writing this not only as a means of informing people, but also as a means of keeping myself on track. There are many things that I need finished or would like to see finished, but I think I'll narrow it down to a few.

  • To begin, I have mentioned Cosmocrystal II in a previous newspost of mine. Ocurp Omnis, the teaser / work in progress for which is on Newgrounds, is now FINISHED. I still have two more tracks to write for this doujin album. And for one of these, which I am working on now, called FLOW_CRAYNELSPHERE/., I am channelling the likes of Queen and Billy Joel. Last year I thought MioHomu was my magnum opus. It's likely that Craynelsphere might surpass it. Both of these need doing by July.

 

  • I am in a band, called The Just Numbers. I play drums and ukulele and do backing vocals, though it does appear that I may be playing more things as time passes. It's a three-piece band, doing classic rock and blues and things along these lines. Mainly originals. My role in the band is strictly nonprofit, I'm not earning a penny out of this. Any proceeds will be split between the bassist and the guitarist. Some of you may have heard said guitarist's work before -- he's a friend of mine, and his name's Greg Slater. If you haven't heard Somewhere Out There, there he is playing his heart out on that guitar of his while I am hesitant playing drums in said track, because that would be the first time I've ever recorded a drum kit in my entire life. Our first gig is on Friday, 8 June.  If you are in Preston, or in the Northwest and are able to make it to Preston and want to come see, feel absolutely free! Details on The Just Numbers' Twitter page.

 

  • I have one solo song in the works. When I say 'solo,' I don't mean it strictly. I mean, this is all going to be me again, even if I'm self-backing. Those of you who are subscribed to my YouTube page would probably know of a song called Street Lights, the short version of which I performed at an open mic once. I have finished the instrumental backing to this song but I will only return to it once I have finished everything related to Cosmocrystal II.

 

  • Once all this is done, I intend to rework and remaster most of my vocal tracks.

 

That's what I see myself doing in the near future, I guess. So all that's going on. Apologies if you haven't heard much from me; I guess I've really been buried chest-deep in it and I am slowly working my way out.

Sounds like good stuff in the works! Would be fun to see some videos of those band shows if someone happens to record it too. :) Busy summer.

Yes, though I imagine I'd be pretty tuckered out from it all.

I hope we can get footage of our band; it'd be good to see.

I am glad everything is working out for you. You put so much energy into your work, whether you get paid or not I am sure everyone is moved by your sound and needing to hear from your band.

I sincerely hope so aaaa
I don't know how things are working out, but all I can do is pour my whole self in, and leave the rest to the Almighty.

Just stopping by here to leave warm feelings and words of encouragement. No need to be shy when it comes to music; it's better to play a live show than to give a speech ;)

Thank you. I will play with all the passion I have!

I look forward to it! Ps, if you'd like me to pray for ya along the way, I'm open

Please do, it'll all be appreciated. Whatever the context, I always play drums in prayer and so I hope it'll be acceptable to God, along with whatever is inside me.

Regarding deep breathing I don't think there's much advice I'd be able to offer, still trying to master that craft myself. :) But good to know I wasn't getting the wrong impression! Though really pushing vocals with asthma - sounds a bit more challenging! Do you ever get attacks while singing? Have you always had that?

I've had a couple, but not really made notes of when. I occasionally do get attacks when singing, which breaks my heart because the first thing I was ever known for musically was my voice, when I was three, and I certainly want to use it to the full.

Ah well that sucks. Guess training lung capacity/control's possible regardless, just harder... don't know any other singers with asthma as far as I know, but I do know this guy: https://youtu.be/MGczUUO8NnQ

...so you know everything's possible if he can do that. ;) Good luck getting to that pinnacle of vocal prowess and proficiency! Really cool to start that early.

Also just realized I totally missed the Aimee Mann part of the response. XD What an awesome voice... though I'm not sure I'm too fond of her occasional pauses, similar to the earlier piece I feel it disrupts the harmony/continuity/fluency a bit... great otherwise, but aha, that's what you were trying.
