Am I kind of crazy to make an album on an Ipad??? I’d say no…

I’m sure plenty of bands and solo artists out there have used the Ipad to record music with. The Ipad surprisingly has great sound quality. That’s why I wanted one so I can have something better to record on ’cause honestly, recording music on the PC sucks. I find that recording on the Ipad is way better. You don’t need to spend a lot of money of studio time when there are other options to record.

In this day and age, bands & artists obsess with wanting to record in the studio ’cause they want to play rock star and they want to sound like one. Well, they don’t really need to. As long as you’re unsigned, you can record and release albums however you want to. Homemade albums are really cool.

I’m hoping to be one of the very few to make an album on an Ipad. Noticed how I didn’t call it a demo. I called it an album. That’s what it’s gonna be. An internet album with a virtual cover and all. The Ipad is a very handy tool for musicians and songwriters and I want to inspire other bands & artists to record in this way.

The album is coming out really well so far. Still got more songs to go though and writing like crazy!!! Still haven’t came up with a title for it yet. When I get all the songs done, I’ll come up with a title for the album. When I pick a title for it, I’ll probably pick something out of the lyrics. This will be considered my debut album.

You don’t need to record in a studio and get ripped off. When you record on your own at home, you get more freedom and more control. You get to be your own boss. That’s a huge part of why home recording is great.

I usually don’t listen to my own music a lot but for some reason, I can’t stop listening to these songs. If I can’t stop listening to these songs, then the same might happen to you. I think you’ll like ’em. That’s my goal with these songs is hoping to get people to like ’em and enjoy ’em. I know I’ve had a lot of nasty critics with my music over the years but maybe people will have a change of heart once they hear these new songs. I tried to make these songs catchy and listenable as best as I can. There will be plenty of sing-alongs and memorable melodies that you won’t get out of your head.

I tried my best with the singing and will try my best with the singing for the rest of the songs. Not only that Neil Young is  a huge influence in my singing on this album, David Bowie is another huge influence.

It feels great to be writing again, though and finally get out of that writers block. I’ll confess it that I had writers block for a long while. Stuck in a rut and now I’m out of it.
