Wake Up, Mama!
Patrick Ashley
I originally wrote this song way back in 1976 when I was still in graduate school. I used to play it at all of the department parties when I still has aspirations of being the next James Taylor.
I recently did an instrumental version of it, but I wasn't happy with it. It needs its lyrics, and it needs a singer, which as you know, I am not.
The more I work with Dreamtonics Synthesizer V Studio 2, the more I'm learning about how to make it sound very realistic. As I mentioned in (Who Says) This Can't Be Love above, the voices are actually samples of real human voices. The AI magic is in the rendering engine. And using SVS2 isn't any where near as easy as saying "Sing me a song." Even though it's pretty amazing what I can do on its own, there are still many hours of tweaking required to get the vocals just right.
Again, give it a list. Send me a note with your thoughts. There are likely more oldies on the way. If I have enough, maybe I'll compile them into another album--but I get ahead of myself. :-)
