I'm working on my own music alongside you. We're doing this together.
I just thought I'd remind everyone that's the case lol... and practice what I preach!
So here I am asking for feedback.
PHANTOM:
This is a song that at this point is over 10 years old that I wrote with a guy named Vlad Holiday. It was my first proper co-writing session when I moved to New York and original, which is the first song in the playlist, never landed anywhere, and my skills since then have dramatically improved. The second version I started during covid that's a string remake of the original (still planning to get vocals on it)... but I've never found the right male vocalist to get on it.
I'm considering singing it myself, although I'd need atleast a week of warm-ups and concentrated practice to get my singing chops up to snuff for this.
Do I tackle it myself? Do I try to find another vocalist?
Do I do both versions, the string version and an updated version of the more electronic downtempo vibe?
The OG vibe worked great for 2010 but needs to be updated for 2026. Originally, the reference was Mickey Echo, if you all remember him (writer of Stay by Rihanna). Who's the reference for this now? This is one of the songs that I'm digging out of the crates and working on refinishing. Would it be helpful for me to break down my process as I work on finishing this in a video that I would share with you all?
Let me know your thoughts. Appreciate you all. So grateful for the community that's building and growing here.
