Here's a new song by Raymond and me called Synchronize Our Hearts. This one started out as a bit of an experiment of trying out a few new songwriting techniques I've learned. I think the song came out pretty well!
(synthpop) Synchronize Our Hearts

Still nostalgic about the old days, writing songs with my Amiga 500, Korg M1, and Ensoniq ASR-10 sampler.

The singing is blending well with the song. I think this is the most rhyming I've heard you do in lyrics. Nice work.

Thank you so much! You can thank Raymond for that vocal mixing. I wasn't thrilled with the performance but after his reverb treatment I think the vocals sound great!

Thanks! Not really much of a secret. I read a book about Max Martin and how he writes his songs. One of the things that interested me (among other things I've been trying) is to use the same simple chord progression in the verse and chorus. It makes people feel more comfortable with the song sooner (assuming you're able to mask that you're doing it by varying the instrumentation).

I love the production on this. Very nice job. Just a random idea... What if you vocoded the entire vocal in key then set it (very low) in the background? Just an idea maybe for a remix sometime.
In the 90s, my midi music was on the Baulder's Gate site. That was my life peak.
Reasonite since 2000. My music (and my old midi) can be found here: https://futurewizard.org
