So was fooling around with a vocalist today and recorded something like 16 - 32 bars of lyrics. They're pretty good, like they have a real good flow, and just contain interesting sounds (they're in another language I don't speak, it could all be "nowaysj sucks a dick" for all I know).
But like I've got absolutely no idea what to do with them. I never am at a total loss like this. I always have some type of frame of reference, some idea to work towards. But I'm totally stumped. The lyrics are kind of poppy. But they need to flow together, so I can't do what I'd sort of lazily do, just take pieces and fuck with them, and put it into some type of techno space (not the historical/genre definition of that term).
Okay, as I'm writing this, and thanks for listening, btw, I'm kind of crystallizing some thoughts that have been floating around back there. I kind of want to take this song in like a cross between the Gypsy Kings and Emika, with just a little bit of an old school hip hop vibe. Haha, jokes right? I really don't know how to go about it.
Yes, I do tend to talk to myself a lot, and increasingly, out loud.
If you have some thoughts on this, whatever it is, I'd appreciate it. I really feel like I'm out of my depth here.
