Creating An R&B Vibe With MIDI – Mad Chaos: April 24, 1998

Hello again, this month is full of hellos, but I guess I have to greet the reader before starting.  Lets start from last night.  

Creating With Design Software

What I actually did after writing in my Diary was muck around with the computer.  I was getting tired of MIDI.  It was exhausting me, so I started playing around with my paint program.  With that I completely remodeled some of the pictures for the CD, making them look better.  

I was on the computer until 4am in the morning.  Then after watching David Letterman and Entertainment Tonight I went to sleep.

Work On MIDI Music Ideas

Today I woke up around 11am, which is surprising.  From get up I took some time to settle to being awake.  

After some time I turned on the computer and started meddling around.  I tried calling Imad but his mobile phone wasn’t answering.  

Lyssa called me today from work twice.  We talked for a short period of time.

Today I had a real vibe and with that momentum I started on Midi with some ideas.  All it took was to listen to KCi & Jo Jo’s CD and I was off and writing a completely new acoustic guitar melody for the whole song.  The melody was completely spontaneous and sounds excellent.  

From last night when I sung the old sounding song, I said to myself this sounds more like a Rock song.  Today when I was done tabulating the score and adding the bass part and some more strings, I said to myself while singing it, “This sounds R & B to me.” That’s something to say when it’s only me singing it.  With that faith in myself and being on a role, I finished the first two verses and practically finished the chorus.  

Lyssa Phones Up

Later in the day I also started scoring the lyrics and the vocals.  This was late in the afternoon.  Lyssa called me from home while I was doing this.  I had to stop for a little, but as we were talking Bielka came to Lyssa’s house.  

Anyway Imad is at my house, so I have to go.  But tonight I was persuaded to stay over Lyssa’s house.  More on that tomorrow.
