    Leaflette (Work In Progress)

    Hi everyone! I really wanted to share a WIP myself and my friend Emie are working on. She lives in the UK but we Skype and write songs together for our Undercover Apple project. Tell us what you think

    Still working on the 2nd verse transitions, fills, and coming up with a bridge today.

    Here's the acoustic version I sent to her (which was actually written 4 years ago) and we decided to turn it into one of our main tracks for the upcoming EP.

    Thanks for listening!

    sweet ****ing christ this is amazing. the composition's really damn nice, and it certainly doesn't hurt that I'm absolute sucker for this type of soft, half-whispered vocals.

          where can I expect to get a hold of this once it's finished?

            To be honest, I'm not sure where I'm going with it. Sold online, maybe some physical copies made, maybe give it away for free with a donation link to help support more music. I'm definitely at a fork in the road. I think I'm just overwhelmed to be working with other musicians for the first time

            What do you think is the best route?

              That was beautiful

              p.s. Go via CDbaby, you can distribute via iTunes and they have some great pricings regarding printing ;D

                How to start an argument online:
                Step 1) Express an opinion
                Step 2) Wait....

                  Thanks for the support! I will share more as I add more to it. So far the bridge is nearly sequenced and I just have to pen some lyrics for it so Emie can sing them. Cheers!

                    I personally prefer bandcamp, but that's really just my personal opinion as a consumer. I really can't say what the best route is for you.

                      don't use itunes plz


                      The Flashbulb, aka Benn Jordan, became so outraged when he discovered that iTunes was effectively pirating his music, that he uploaded copies of his latest album to BitTorrent. TorrentFreak caught up with Benn to learn more about the decision to stop distributors and 'coked-up label reps' from getting all the cash.

                        I have musician friends who love iTunes and have been able to use the money to upgrade their equipment hahah! I was kind of hoping to do the same. Interesting read!

                        I'll have to read more about CDBaby and TuneCore. Thanks!

                          That first track was awesome. Keep up the great work!

                          @kommisar - Amusing and insightful read, it brought awareness on a subject I had no knowledge of.
