How I recorded my EP with tape in 2021
So, I might not win any Grammys this year or the next, but that's okay. I mean, after all, I don't own a fancy bathroom to display such a trophy. I and ten other writer's aren't going to turn up on the red carpet and start preaching self vanity and idealism. Nope, I wrote, produced and mixed 'I just want to sleep' by myself. If you could use the words loosely because as you will find out there wasn't too much producing or mixing going on for that matter. It was pretty rudimentary and in a lot of ways very similar to the method used in the '50s or early '60s. I've been experimenting with using tape now for a little while, as you can see from some of my other material. However, this is finally a collection of music whereby I got it mostly right. I hope to show you in this article how I did it and if you are interested, maybe how you can try it! Would I advise you to try it? Hell yes, tapes are pretty cool.

Basics of Songwriting
Here I will attempt to give you a few basics. You might consider taking a poetry or fiction course that explores the English language a lot deeper than is possible here. Most songwriters today are self-taught and writing skills can be improved with some schooling. Artists tend to fall into bad habits and also fail to reach their potential without some personal care. A good teacher can do wonders in taking some of the bugs out of your writing and playing.

How to write the perfect song
While on a long road trip, tired of loop on Pandora and Spotify we resorted to the radio. Weird how everything comes around, if you could see the loop would you make the same mistakes? Or would you learn from your mistakes and make the second time better than the first? While listening to the radio, the thought came to me that every song is so similar when broken down. Axis of Awesome came to mind that cements the theory that they are all alike. Don't believe me, listen to their four chords song and you will soon see. The same four chords are in just about every song and when you realize this it makes it much easier to break it down and write a hit single. Take a page out of the rap community, they take someone's beat and they flow with the words that come to mind. To write a song you can simply do the same thing, find a beat you like and let the words come to you. Let your feeling guide on a lyrical journey. Get your ego out of the way and let the words flow. Even if you only can think of a few lines, in time when you learn to let go you will see it flow. If just the beat isn't enough, think of the type of song you want to write. Now, whatever song comes to mind I know you'll know the words to this songs. Listen to it and sing with it, feel it. You chose this song for a reason, it has meaning and this is good. Feel the song, feel the emotions it brings and turn that song into your own words. Whatever the hook is, change that first and then let the words come to you. The most important part of writing, not just music is doing it from the heart. If you can be vulnerable and let your emotions and your feelings be heard through the music then you know your on the rite path. Anything from the heart is the start to greatness, when your vulnerable people will feel it. Your fans will resonate with it, when you can do this you can be the greatest singer song writer of all time. At the end of the day, everyone just wants to feel something and many turn to music. Why, for the very reasons I have stated above. A song can be anything and everything. A song can get you of a rut or make a bad day better. Music is food for the soul and when someone great comes along that can sing with their heart then you know it will great.
