Cracks in the Floor
This song was sung in a whisper…the overall effect wasn’t intended, but I think it’s better sung that way; makes it a little more intimate, I guess. It’s a little difficult to sing and play loud when you live in an apartment with thin walls at 2AM.
Recorded voice and guitar simultaneously with my little mini-disc recorder in a take, then threw it into Protools and added the piano in an another.
There’s something about Lo-fi that is slightly haunting. Hauntingly beautiful? I hope this song comes across as that.
