I enjoyed the response from my poem “Eight Letters”. Thank you all so much. (https://midimike.com/2017/07/25/eight-letters/)
The poem kept rattling in my head all day long and I found them fitting a rhythmic pattern. Then a melody jumped in and I headed up to my studio to get it all down.
There was a mood inspired by the groove and I layed down the guitar tracks to a metronome.
The drums came easily as I followed the rhythms in my head. As I mentioned earlier, this is fun and simple for me. The chorus just jumped out, and I like the changes coming back into the verse. The 6 string acoustic guitar sounded great to me and fit the song perfectly.
From there it was add the bass sound on my MIDI keyboard and it was ready for the Lead and harmony vocals.
It took me a while to sing this one to match the mood and I am glad you didn’t have to listen to me learn the melody and fit it to the music, but I think it came out as intended; short and sweet.
Here is the song mixed down. The whole process took me about a week, but this was before I started working over 50 hours a week!

It is hit and miss for me. I try to rotate, so much to do, as you know. I appreciate the time you offer me. Work and the mandatory overtime has put a damper on my time LOL! It was much more fun and productive when I was semi-retired! We do what we can with what we have……… Thanks!
