I used my new condenser mic for this song. Could it be that it's picking up more room ambiance? It's very clear, but picks up so much and it's so sensitive that I can't break loose with my usual mojo, lol. I'm still getting used to the settings.
Oh, and I sang sitting down because my mic stand broke, lol. I'm usually standing when I sing with my hands around the mic with my eyes closed while I'm making love to my imaginary audience and the girls are throwing their panties on stage with tears streaming down their faces screaming that they wunna have my baby.
All of that makes a lot of sense.

I know, late to respond to this thread, but, well, real life interfered.

I would like to thank the people who commented on the piece I did. Like I initially posted, there were lyrics written. But, with one member in the UK, one in PA, and the third in WI, getting our watches synced so we can actually get recordings done and have enough time for me to go "No no no no no... That's not how I heard it in my head. Do it like this!" and edit the tracks together and all that.. I ran out of time. The backing music was directly influenced by the theme, with nearly every loop track reversed at some point (most, repeatedly) to give you a Double Take of the loop.

Anyways, thanks again. Hopefully my/our next submission will be greatly improved.
