You know me too well! Nightwish were the reason for that phrase xD And I wish there were more rock guitars in orchestras <3

@litorne Mar 2022
Thank you so much for your comment! I'm glad you enjoyed it and that it put your mind at rest! :D
Congratulations on your FAWM! I really like the bardic side of some of your pieces! -
@nancycunning Mar 2022
I tucked a simple lyric on your song Mando Fun...Look forward to listening to more of your stuff...

@freddie13 Mar 2022

@bunter Feb 2022
Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment on 2 of my songs. I appreciate it and I look forward to having a listen to some of your work.

@tuneslayer Feb 2022
Holy cow, that's amazing. I heard of a library somewhere renting woodworking tools, but not musical instruments.
And yeah, Logic Pro is great. I do a lot with it and I know I've only scratched the surface. You'll love it when you can start adding your own bells & whistles to it. I'm excited to see what you end up doing with it. -
@tuneslayer Feb 2022
You know, this world would be a much better place if we had more peace, love and honky tonk.

@nadine Feb 2022
Thank you! Yes I'm have tons of fun here but it's also quite stressful. I'm waiting on tracks for 3-4 collabs which all should be uploaded before 28th! Besides I'm planning the cast for the final versions of my hearted songs. Some roles are still missing so this week will be insane!
How is your FAWM? Busy writing songs or deep down in YouTube tutorials? -
@improvyssey Feb 2022
Thanks for the comment, Chris! I like creating story music and/or musical stories; it's one of my favourite things to do.

@mikeb Feb 2022
Thanks for the listen and comment on 'Burnt Orchid'!
-
@nadine Feb 2022
Thanks a lot for your comment on "Pedal to metal". I really don't know what my muse comes up with... But I didn't aim for a 70s sound there. Rather twangy 50s / 60s rock'n'roll or some modern approaches. Let's see who will be in and if the project happens :)
-
@debs Feb 2022
Yes definitely, I'm in! :)
-
@nadine Feb 2022
Thanks for asking! My voice is fine. I used my diaphragm but too much pressure so speaking was no problem, but I was not able to hit high notes anymore. I need a rest today.
Did I inspire you to toss a coin fir the witcher? I'll listen to your new song later. -
@summerrussell Feb 2022
What's up dude! :) Thank you for listening and brightening up the place with your always thoughtful comments. Enjoy FAWMing!
-
@tuneslayer Feb 2022
Thanks for listening to "If You're Undead And You Know It"! You're not the only filker who thinks this belongs in a circle, but it needs a few more verses. Oh, and if I'd had more time I would have run this through Logic Pro X and added appropriate sound effects. Maybe later..

@ceilidh Feb 2022
Welcome back! Looking forward to hearing many FAWMsongs!
-
@nadine Feb 2022
Ah you borrowed it! Good luck on finding your perfect banjo.
Thank for your comment on Skyscraper. The song has been written in a day but arrangement, recording and production took 3 months. This is why you don't hear full productions on my profile. Skyscraper a gift to the community since we just finished on Sunday! -
@metalfoot Feb 2022
Reverb and compression on a simple cardioid mic input. Guitar recorded from the end of the body, not the 12th fret.

@nadine Feb 2022
Thanks! No idea where my muse is taking me this time. But when I come up with some weird ideas, I wanna make sure its performable.
-
@nadine Feb 2022
