Title: Raindrops



Original Band or Composer: Harold Lane "Hal" David

Notes: I recorded this song in my quest to understand big band and full orchestral type of music, while still trying to improve on my vocals and sound engineering skills. If for whatever reason you cannot used the Google MP3 player, then feel free to download the mp3 file - click here

As usual, there will be some mistakes and I want those mistakes recorded. I know many musicians and producers are shooting for perfection and high fidelity, but I feel like I am loosing my humanity by pursuing such lofty goals. And it's too bad, because most listeners now expect an unnatural state of being.

Maybe that's why I prefer live recordings to studio ones, because they are real, they are human. I hope we never loose our humanity, because from where I sit, this is our greatest attribute and what makes unique within the entire Universe.

I changed the effects and instruments from the original midi file that I downloaded from somewhere long ago, when no one but myself and handful of people cared about midi or could see it's potential. As far as performance goes, my vocals and I played the guitar at the end, which are full of mistakes ☺
