so this is what we have so far...
if you would like to contribute more instruments i'm looking for some stand up bass, acoustic guitar, cello, harp, basically anything classical :o)
here's the collab link: http://hitrecord.org/records/132262#contribute_to_132262
PLEASE READ: =)
*Firstly: If you choose to work on this, THANK YOU! =) i look forward to working with you!
*SONG IS IN 120 bpm
*this is the new version of "pieces" i just spent all day recording. although it is now free of the refrigerator hum, there is still a hiss that i can't seem to get rid of. hopefully with your help i'll be able to mask the sound with something much more pleasant.
i also couldn't recreate the original raspyness of my voice no matter how much sand i gargled, forced coughed or chain smoked. i don't know what was wrong with my voice that day but i loved it! =( oh well.
*what i'm looking for is organic instruments like violin, viola, cello, harp, acoustic guitar, bass. I would very much like for the music to compliment the song, slow and sultry, sad. obviously there are exceptions to every rule so please feel free to experiment , to sample, chop, and do whatever you wish to it, but the above things are what i really would like and if i get, i will be using.
*Important: if you do put something up, please accompany your post with an instrumental only track so that i can download and mix them on my own computer =)
*if you need inspiration my influences include:
bat for lashes
beachouse
goldfrapp (older stuff)
blonde redhead
radiohead
portisehead...obviously, i love head.
*lastly if you need a click track let me know.
Lyrics:
i've been going in circles
with you in the center
i was burnt by the fall
i was burnt by the fall
ran your hair through my fingers
the haunt of it lingered
i was burnt by the fall
i was burnt by the fall
I buried all traces of you in the woods
for the animals and insects to sift through
they'll find you in pieces
if they find you at all
i wrote your name in a circle
put a lock of your hair in the middle
and i burned it all
i burned it all
i fanned the smoke with my fingers
making sure just ashes lingered
and i burned it all
i burned it all
I buried all traces of you in the woods
for the animals and insects to sift through
they'll find you in pieces
if they find you at all
i took your
spell off of me
i washed my hands
of our synergy
i loved you to pieces
i took your
spell off of me
i cut the
strings of your memory
i loved you to pieces
