Working With Others

How I Work:

I love to write my own songs. I'm planning on posting more of them in their raw form (piano plus vocals). I also like to listen to existing melodies and beats out there and come up with vocals and lyrics, possibly re-working the song in the process. I love songwriting and feel like I'm pretty good at making a song catchy. I want to build up a repertoire, find my strengths and weakness, and find places to fit in the creative process. I'm willing to work for $$ as well as just fun. Let the jams begin!

Pretty much starting out in a lot of ways. Hopefully you'll be able to judge my experience by the awesome songs that will soon fill my profile

Chris!
Dude, to say the least, I am extremely impressed with your voice. I used to be heavily influenced by techno and dance but have since moved to a more hiphop/r&b style. I would love to have you do some vocals for a song. let me know if your when your free and your welcome to come on over. I look forward to it.
Until then, keep up the good work.
Brady

It was Unreal I was referring to Chris, it has a real sense of warmth to it. A sense of familiarity which appeals to me! It's a great song.

Quality, this is only the second time i have heard it and seemed just like hearing the voice of an old friend. Great track.

Hey Chris,
Sorry for the late reply man and thanks for the compliment, but you also a great songwriter. We should continue to share. What do you think?

This song is...i don't know how to describe it. "I wish I could give you the feeling it creates within me". Awesome song.
