Mixing and Piano 22nd/23rd
Had a hard time mixing the 5 songs for my band's debut EP. During the first few times we mixed, I thought we sounded really horrible and I wouldn't want it released nor would I want to even hear it. But, the recent mix proved that Reghu's expertise in sound engineering helped us achieve a decent sound. Plus the band and I learned a whole lot from him.
I witnessed Shao Chong do a wicked jazz improv of Mary Had A Little Lamb. Mr Eric handed him a score of the piece, and Shao Chong having obtained a degree (yeah I think he did. That rocks!) in classical piano (I think). On the spot (!!), he played the song. The chords really looked evil but it sounded so beautiful! But! Mr Eric pointed out that notes is one thing, and feel is another. Yeah, agreed. I didn't really feel the swing, but Shao Chong definitely impressed me. Wicked.
Oh yeah, another thing I have to work on while playing guitar or bass; TUNE! I'm always lazy to tune it perfectly, because I'm afraid I might hold up the lesson and keep people waiting. Like Monica, I have this constant need to please people. Haha!
Intervals; minor 7th, major 3rd, perfect 4th, 5th etc. Rocks! Takes alot of practise, but hell, I'll do it!
