Ornaments
by vigwig, 1-4-13

Love ya
You have got a nice hat
My heart goes pitty pat

When I see ya
My smile comes out

And I am
A mighty happy man

Woo hoo baby

Too me the sounds of this song are like ornaments on Christmas tree. So are the words.  Making music is like making beautiful ornaments.  What makes them beautiful are the people who listen to them.

You flatter me big time, but I like it and thanks.  This one was one of my better ones if not the best.  I know it has errors in it and flaws but that's me.  My vox came across the best yet.  I tried to keep the reverb from making the lyrics too hard to decipher.  Thanks for the comments. HNY, Vic

Life is not about the number of Breathes you take, it is the amount of times your breathe is taken away

I thank you for agreeing with me a good saxophone is better than unlimited 4G network.  I appreciate your comments.  Vic

The horns sound great. What sort of mics and placement did you use? Or were they contact mics attached to the horns?

64guitars,
I'm a little bit sorry to say that I use almost exclusively loops and samples of loops.  I pitch shift them, whittle them down to create something unique that has the sound I am looking for.  I also ad reverb sometimes and speed them up or slow them down sometimes to achieve the desired effects.  Since I am at the mercy of whatever the loop creater did or didn't do, some can't be changed without making them worse.  I am refining my my approach and not making as many free-style , no holds barred smash-ups.  I know I can't sing so I have to work really hard to disguise my natural voice and I do that without any voice morphers, just come up with a different way of 'singing.'  Many times I am forced to whisper in the mic to keep my wife from calling out, "Are you talking to me?"  It's not good practice waking up your spouse.  I'll attach a picture of The Vig Wig Productions.
