jwnicholson78 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) I Just got back from our summer vacation. For the past few years, I have tried to write a small song while on vacation, and see if I can finish it before the end of the week. Whatever gets done, gets done. I usually get up early to work on it for an hour or so before heading out for sightseeing and the like. This was made almost entirely on my Android tablet using FL Studio Mobile, with just a little bit of mastering with Ozone 9 in Cakewalk when I got home. The photos are from various places we visited. Comments, critiques and suggestions for improvement are always welcome. Jeff Edited July 9, 2022 by jwnicholson78 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwnicholson78 Posted July 9, 2022 Author Share Posted July 9, 2022 Updated 7-9: I adjusted the mix to bring out the bass a little more and changed the arrangement slightly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeringAmps Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Spent a lovely week on the Outer Banks once. My wife is what I refer to as a “horse girl “ so much time was spent pursuing the indigenous ponies. IIRC one did not walk barefoot to the sand as the paths were loaded with what her Auntie referred to as “foot-fers”! t 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife booked a tour, but she miscounted and turned out we were short a space when we went to the tour company. So I took one for the team and went back to the house while everyone else went to see the horses, but at least they took some good pictures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musekamp Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Nice track and video! You definitely convey a summer holiday vibe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhonoBrainer Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Good one! I've never been there but feel as if I had. I could see why you brought the bass up a bit, and for my ears it could do with just a hair more low end but that's just me. Pretty impressive, being done on the Android tablet, bet you had that thing maxxed! cheers, -Tom, who travels infrequently, unless we're counting mental walkabouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, it could still use a little more low end. The tablet did pretty well all things considered, especially considering most of the synths were doubled or tripled. FL Studio Mobile is pretty efficient, and the best $15 bucks I ever spent on an Android app. It's fun to noodle around with on long flights, too.

bjornpdx Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Hi Jeff. I think "summer vacation" is a music genre isn't it? This one certainly has that carefree feel to it. Nice blending of images with the music. -Bjorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy j Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 The music certainly conveys summer fun. The pictures made me feel as if I too were on holiday. Well done indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
