@TessaViolet Angry

when you’re in person waiting for something are you

@TessaViolet @maggie_stjohn There's a mic called from Shure called an SM7b that are fairly ubiquitous b/c they tend to sound good for most people, and they tend to sound good in 'non-studio' rooms (aka the bedrooms and home studio rooms most of us record in these days).

@maggie_stjohn @sethearnest will know (I don't! haha), but what I do know is mics are very personal and sound different on different voices. this one really works for me but won't be right for everybody!

@TessaViolet what mic do you use to record vocals? I’m upgrading and need advice, please and thank you miss Tessa Violet

@TessaViolet @maggie_stjohn Most of Tessa's stuff we've done together is an AKG C-12 VR (one of those green and gold ones). But that same mic sound terrible on some people, so as Tessa said, it's really voice-dependent.

@honestmp3 Excited & grateful. Like a baby giraffe just discovering the joy of running through a field.

@sethearnest how are you feeli nd during this quarantine anthem launch

Lovely piece full of wisdom and insight: forge.medium.com/prepare-for-th…. Thanks, @juliovincent!

@CheckeredOwl @johnreuben Haha YES!!!!!

I gotta say one of my favourite momenta on @johnreuben's latest record is @sethearnest saying "And Seth!"

@stepnsidemysoul Haha!!!

@TerryRedherring @TessaViolet 🙏🙏🙏

livestream in thirty minutes! drop your questions for my producer in the livestream or else. i’m peeping in now youtube.com/embed/h9KRtnbr…

@TerryRedherring @TessaViolet So dig in w/her and find what she wants, and you'll be on a good path!

@TerryRedherring @TessaViolet Yes, if it's her album, then it's your job to support her vision. When helping someone out, we're never Frodo or Luke; we're always Gandalf or Obi-Wan, i.e. we're there to help and guide, not be the focus and the hero.

@likaism Love that album. There's so much other-wordliness on that album (which I always love that feeling in music or novel or movies or whatever). I do feel a heavy sadness on that album, too, so sometimes it's a heavy listen. But beauuuuutiful songs.

@sethearnest also thoughts on a moon shaped pool? really loved it when it came out, it has some beautiful tunes

@sethearnest we need to talk about radiohead mister. i am a very very huge fan. this is important please. i am a big fan. did you see the show they premiered yesterday?

@likaism Haha love it!

@sethearnest god in rainbows is good. all these three are incredible and i totally understand you so much for having a hard time choosing! these three are legendary in their own way and i remember the entire in rainbows scandal. here’s a meme to summarize my thoughts on these three :)

@MenswearMartin YES! 'Everything You've Come to Expect' is awesome! I need to listen to earlier albums more, too! Thanks for the heads up.

@sethearnest have you ever listened to The Last Shadow Puppets? If not, I’d highly recommend their first album simply based on your love for the Beatles

@TerryRedherring @TessaViolet If it doesn't need to stay acoustic-y, then the sky's the limit. A song is generally just a melody, some sort of harmonic support, and most of the time something rhythmic going on, so figure out cool ways to support your vocal in interesting ways.

@TerryRedherring @TessaViolet If you want it still feel acoustic, then just pick appropriate other pieces/instruments to support the main voice and instrument (acoustic guitar or uke or whatever is the main inst) and not distract from it.

@stepnsidemysoul Thank you!!

@likaism I really never have favorites w/anything (Enneagram 9, ha). If I could only take one of their albums to an island, it'd be either OK Computer or In Rainbows, but even that's an impossibly difficult discussion. Or Kid A--I can't even answer my own question.

@sethearnest it’s such a nice show! great tracks and great performance as always. you have any favorites from them?

@ericthelemming Yes!! That album is amazing. Check out the first tune on there "Hush" where it's mainly just vocals--wow. And "New Mistake" "All Is Forgiven"...oh I could go on and on about that album.

@tessaviolet_upd @TessaViolet Yes, Tessa rules. I like most that she's always interested in finding something interesting to say and do in her music.

Tomorrow's guest will be my producer @sethearnest ! Hit the bell on the stream so you don't miss it and let me know if you have any questions you'd like me to ask! Already got some good ones from Patreon youtu.be/h9KRtnbr_bU
