Hearing voices
The issue of ‘vocals’ is a vexing one for me. I’d like some for some of the tracks, but, even though I enjoy singing, I don’t particularly think that I’d want the voice involved to be mine. Part of this is, I’m sure, a lack of confidence, but equally I am keen to collaborate and widen the ‘sound’ of whatever this is.
That said, I’ve been wondering if lately I should just start viewing my voice as just another sound source - like any sample, effect or plug in - and apply the same level of experimentation to it.
I always loved what Prince did with his voice back in the day and more recently, plenty of artists are doing amazing stuff with their voices beyond just being amazing performers, so perhaps this is the way forwards?
You may yet hear my voice on stuff. Perhaps if I am clever about it, you may not even realise :)
