Draft: I'm Waiting For You

I guess I just go on making the basic vocal track using this Vocaloid first.

Here's how it sounded.



Will polished this of course.

Finally Satisfied With Sonika's Vocal

I think I can just let go and move on. But I can't. After hearing some tweaked vocal track from one of the member in Vocaloid Otaku, Shoukka I decide to do more experiments.

I've change the key chord to low, middle and finally I decide it sounded good at A# or Bb.

Here's how it sounded.



But to my surprise, when I exported it as .wav file, the sound match to A instead of A#. I guess that's bugs?

I'm Waiting For You - First Verse Vocal

Sonika is a not an easy Vocaloid to use. ^^,"

This one took me 6 hours to achieve this, but it doesn't sound so realistic... just not yet... That's just proof my incompetency. I know, I just keep doing this until I have a good sound. Just like people says, practice makes perfect. (Oh, is that so?)

I'm Waiting For You - Lyric and Chord Progression

Last time, this song was titled "Never Change". But finally, I decide to change the title to "I'm Waiting For You" because that is the message that this song want to deliver.

Finalised Melody For "Never Change"

This is the finalised version of the melody for our first song, Never Change.



The bass, guitar and the drums were rushed, well I haven't thought how I should arrange the mix yet. This is still "work in progress" remember?

On other notes, I've seen Megaupload have been taken down. This is bad. I openly oppose SOPA and PIPA act. Just to let you guys know my stance.

Chorus Draft For Never Change

It was raining heavily outside, you can listen to the rain the recording.

But I got some inspiration and I (think) I found the melody for the chorus part of the song titled Never Change (name subject to change).

Here's how it sounded.



Why I upload this crappy recording? (I believe most of you will ask this question.)

It's just to show, your "anyhow" humming melody can actually turn into a real song. If you like Vocaloid, do cover is good... but come out with originals is even better.

Don't you think so?

Never Change - First & Second Verse Composition

I almost sure that this is final, I mean the melody.

It suits my taste (the melody) although I'm not very confidence in the lyric.

Here how it sound.



Here's the lyric.

I look up at the blue sky,
Put my hopes on the wind,
I don't know when I'll be blessed,
For them to come true...

I just want you to know that,
I'm waiting for you here,
Perhaps this is my destiny,
To love you from far...
