Here’s an original which I recorded some years back using my Presonus desktop audio workstation. The production was fun to learn, although I’m definately not a producer/mixer master. Just a song writer. I don’t play well either but I manage to get the lyrics and melodies out of my head using a chord chart as I continue to add to my song collection.
🌺🙏🙏🙏Mahalo for listening and please don’t mind all the mistakes!
OH…sorry, please adjust your volume. It is quite loud.

The_Bumble_BardParticipant@heilene, that is so, so lovely and magical! I loved the effect you created with the song overall – with the voice effects (reverb? I know nothing, lol) and what sounds like layers in certain parts. But the song itself is just beautiful. Not sure why, but it gives me Lana Del Rey vibes, which is definitely a good thing! It’s clear you have a talent for songwriting. Would be very interested to hear what Andrew says when he gets a chance! But thank you so much for sharing! Would love to hear more! 😊

heileneParticipant@The_Bumble_Bard Mahalo nui for listening and for your feedback! My songs are not meant for me to play or sing but for a visionary to produce and mix. But, this one in particular I wrote for a dear old friend that encouraged me to share my binder of songs to the world after hearing one of my them. He was a one of my Meals on Wheels recipients. He even cleaned and fixed my busted-up ukulele. I know what you mean about it sounding like the style of an artist; its terrible that I need to look Lanaʻs music up, I mostly listen to alot of Hawaiian and local music. Although, I was trying to go for something sounding like…how to describe, maybe oldies with an electric guitar. I sound to motherly and monotone at times in the song.
hahaha…we are our worst critics!
@ Andrew Mahalo Andrew for listening and for the feedback! I feel like I will be learning and growing a lot here if I continue to connect. My issue is I have a habit of dissapearing. But I am working on finishing up a book I am writing right now and having to paying my AI to help me with hours of research that would have taken me years to find. So, I am going to become a Premium member as soon as I can do it. Thank you for making much of you content available to the everyone. I can see the value in supporting Rockclass101. Okay, before I write a book here. Aloha Andrew!

heileneParticipant@Andrew Hey Andrew…am I doing my replies correctly? Do you know why the message above doesnʻt highlight you name? Is it because I replied to The_Bumble_Bards reply?🙏
