Profile Information

What have you composed for? Or what medium do you work around?
Choir, Small Ensemble
What is your favorite genre or style of music?
The style I'd like to learn more about composing/arranging in is a capella male groups (e.g., Take 6, Haven Quartet, Glad, etc.)
Is music your main income source?
No - Not Yet
Where do you live?
Knoxville, TN
About Me:
I'm working to become a one-man male ensemble (I used to say "one-man quartet," but I'm quickly learning that there's often more than 4 parts to what I'm trying to do). I'm presently getting my sea-legs (C-legs?) by working from a songbook from Haven Quartet, a modern gospel quartet in the style of Take 6.

Thanks Ralph! Yes, I do all the instruments and vocals. I just have fun and do it for the artistic outlet. I really am impressed with your vocals and would enjoy hearing more of what you create. Thanks again! Btw - I added a video of one of my songs to the video page on this site. It's a sing-a-long!

Wow! Immortal Invisible is wonderful! I knew we might eventually find something in common. Music.

I don't know - i mean, it already sounds great. Version two could use some "mastering" - meaning flatten out it's eq a little. Too much low mid right now (around 500hz.) But really, this is great as it is.

"Version 2 has a faster tempo and more focus on the phrasing. I also paid more attention to intonation this time and cut the volume on some of the breaths. I'm still using GarageBand, so I'm a bit limited in terms of pitch correction (it's turned off completely in both versions).

Any thoughts on what I could do either performance-wise or recording-wise to improve?" - Ralph

Hi Ralph! Welcome! Immortal sounds very cool. What's the difference between the two versions? Recording / mix? The second sounds a little more "full" to me...

Hey, folks. I just posted "version 2" of Immortal, Invisible. I think I'm getting closer to the sound I want... but I'm still not quite there (maybe I never will be). I'd love to get some feedback on what I could do to improve the sound. Once I "get it," I plan to start playing around with some original arrangements that I'll share.
