I've spent the last month or so finishing up some remixes. A couple are covers of classic songs that I redid with a vocalist that I work with and a couple are originals that were in need of some new ideas.
As much as I love songwriting, I also love remixing. I think the reason being is because I look forward to taking something and putting a whole new slant on it. I like taking songs that are meant for one genre and remixing it for another. I think that when we think of remixes, we think of dance music but I tend to think remixes as rearranging in the biggest sense of the word. The word 'arranging' itself has many different connotations that I think is limiting. In this way I think of remixing, producing and arranging in the same terms.
Most of the originals that I have written have at least one remix; sometimes many. I try to write the best melody and lyric I can initially. Sometimes I have a general feel of the song when I start but then when I do the remix, I try to do something completely different.
If you've written some songs, I urge you to try a couple of remixes. Try to make a ambient piece out of a rock tune, or a sparse acoustic tune from a dance number. You may surprise yourself, I know I have. If remixing isn't your thing, giving your bare vocal tracks to another musician can sometimes result in some great sounding tracks. I know quite a few musicians out there are looking for material like this to hone their remixing chops and you'll

通勤・通学はとても大変。交通機関や車など、どのように乗って工夫しているか教えてください。
時間差通勤を使います。朝のラッシュで疲弊してしまうと、いい仕事ができないので、通勤時の感覚は大切ですね。
その昔は東京湾を半周以上するくらい長距離通勤で乗換も多く、疲れてしまっていたのですが、今は晴れた朝は
スクーター通勤です。都心は混雑するので、裏道は地元の人しか取らない静かな道をのんびり通勤ですね。
小さく音楽を聴きながら、携帯電話とヘッドセットをBluetoothでつないで音楽を聴いたり、FMラジオ放送を楽しみますね。
朝のラジオ番組で、音楽でのりのりだと、朝元気がなくてもはつらつになれます。
どうやら音楽は離せないみたいです。
]]>最近、一番がっかりした事を教えてください。
落として踏みつけられて、外れて割れちゃって外れちゃった。しょぼーん。
前はあまり気にしていなかったのに、聴くと意外と好きだった曲を「音楽」からAmazonのアイテムで教えてください
