Just wanted to show this gem off. This is my first song I ever wrote and/or recoded. I spent $12/hour to record this back in 2011.

Sounds good man, I dug it. Did you make the beat? I noticed you used the “dignity is tossed” line from “Under The Moon”.

Hey you’re right. Never even thought about it. No I didn’t make the beat, and the song has undergone massive transformation since this recording. The guys running the “studio” sucked at their jobs. But they told me before I went in that they don’t usually do rap.

Cool man. yeah I thought there were some good things about the song, although seemed slightly unfinished like it needed more of a verse/chorus structure instead of just kind of ending. 

Also, thought I’d share this here. My wife and I record music sometimes together (I do the instrumentals, she does the vocals) and we started making annual Halloween singles last year. We just put out our 2nd one you can stream or download HERE. It’s not rap

@chevy2dope Damn bro, your wife KILLS it!  Very cool track.  Luv that guitar riff around the 2 minute mark!

I completely agree with scruffy, for it being your first track it dominates my 1st track!  Mine was recorded on a 4 track tape cassette recorder over a Puff Daddy instrumental in ’98 with stolen lyrics from Sucka MC’s.

The studio was ran by a couple alternative rockers in California. I had been tweaking that song for 5 years. They told me the structure was off and explained song structure to me. I the rewrote it, added another verse, changed a lot of what I had. I am almost done with the beat I will be using for it then I will be recording it again.

Well they weren’t wrong about the structure thing as I had thought the same. But I’m looking forward to hearing the reworked version, should be cool man!

Here is the beat as it stands. Needs some mixing done.
