Fanu: "Awake" [free]
I decided to give away a track that was supposed to be on an album I’m working on but, alas, a long story short (I’ll spare you the tech-geekery details), the song file is now gone and I can’t work on it anymore. Fortunately, I had done a “test recording” at some point, and this is it (I also did a bit of copy-pasting at the end to make it a wee bit longer to be somehow useful if you want to play it in a mix or something, and you can probably hear that).
This is the first song I created with an E-MU sampler I recently bought (I recently wrote about getting back to hardware samplers) and I happened to feel inspired by the good old 720 Degrees Records stuff, so this is the outcome of that.
This one is mostly unmixed (only ran a few channels from the E-MU into a Soundcraft 200SR mixer) and it is unfinished, but hey, it’s a freebie.
It’s been great to notice that as I’ve got older, I’ve realized how little importance our possessions have. I know for sure that if I had lost a song of mine that I really liked when I was younger, it would’ve meant getting pretty damn bummed and feeling blue for a while, but now, as I’ve “awakened” a bit, I’ve realized that songs are just, well, songs, and I’ll always make more. Fittingly, even before I thought of that – and lost the song – I happened to place the speech samples in the track that complement the thoughts.
The voices heard in the track may be recognized by some, and I’m all ears to guesses as to who are doing the speaking.
Well, I hope you like it – and, remember, there’s not that much in life that’s worth getting very upset about!
