I didn’t think this birthday song was going to happen. My recording computer died the day before. Bummer!
I was able to MacGyver a basic rig together to make it work. I started the project being very frustrated I didn’t have older version of Logic, my favorite plug-ins, etc.
But, it ultimately became a fun experiment using all stock Logic X tools, and gave me a reason to learn the most updated version (since I stay a couple operating systems behind).
We used the piano/vocal Birdy version of “Skinny Love” as the guide track to build from. This made for an interesting process as there isn’t really a consistent tempo to lock into. We just learned to embrace the float.
Rachel absolutely crushed this tune.
I can’t believe it was her first time recording!
Shout out to the Italian Ovens pan pizza.
You the real MVP.
