Just in time for Christmas: My full yacht rock tune production!
(Apologies in advance for my expressionless and phraseless vocal performances - it's all in good fun, hopefully! )
@terjefjelde I’ll listen later but for now, I love the cover image.
@mcmullin Thanks, David!
I'm pretty happy with the musical backdrop now, but I'll probably redo the vocals. It's never a good sign when you turn them down in the mix to hide the flaws (especially in the chorus)!
I hope you like yacht rock and enjoy my attempt for what it is, though!
@terjefjelde
I’d heard the words “yacht rock” before but was never sure quite what they referred to. Now I know! Yes, this has a very specific kind of mellow, sunny, tipsy 70s mood and sound that I recognize instantly—right down to the sax solo—you nailed it.
@mcmullin Thank you, David! Yeah, I have a long-lasting love affair with this kind of music, so that was fun to do!
I posted too soon, though - I spent today smoothing edges and adding support for the chorus vocals, so it's far more satisfying for me to listen to now.
But I guess I might be the only one who would hear the difference - the little imperfections is often all I can hear in my own work!
