JoyManifest behind the scenes:

The album tres Leches was recorded towards the end of summer 2012. At this point I realized that for the sake of voice acting, delivery, and take time it was better to rap the story out than to sing it, especially when you could sing over the rap track later wherever it is best added, whereas it's less useful to rap over the singing track, it sounds better when one can hear signing over a rapped track.  This is the plan I have for this album but yes, it is mainly a rap album as far as its vocal approach is concerned. 

It looks like I may have to re-record the Sim and Eless vs Obsidian track or find it in the archives and add it to the disc (because I'm not sure if the track was burned onto the album and it is important). 

It felt like the weight of the world was on my shoulders when I recorded the album becsuse it was the last album following a year in which I recorded eighteen rough draft prototype albums from the heart and soul non stop.

What is Tres Leches?

Joy manifest behind the scenes

When I decided to give red velvet cake its name, I didn't know what to call the album and I was barely a fan of the dessert. 

I didn't know of allot of other popular desert names that began with R. So red velvet cake seemed a fitting name for an album. 

I figured if I was going to call the album this, I had to at least make an effort to  take a liking to the desert. I'm glad I heeded the call. I purchased red velvet cake ice cream and liked it, there was a cupcake place my mother turned me on to that also had an amazing red velvet cake flavor. I would have missed out on this anomaly of a treat had it no have been for this album. That said sometimes , if you're a writer or an artist and you really want  to modivate yourself to like something for the first time or take a liking to it over time, put that thing in your work. Chances are you'll appreciate that things in ways you never would have imagined.

JoyManifest: Behind the scenes

I recorded hard candy around July 2012. It was a thrill to record especially capturing scenes from songs like " finally free" I also enjoyed singing and recording "obsidian wanders."

I was thrilled not only to record this album but for what adventurous takes would be in store with the next 2 albums especially with the character acting demands of the main antagonist, Arell.

It was also the first reversal album for euphoria sequence and i thoroughly enjoyed how these reversed remixes of the instrumentals turned out.

Joy manifest behind the scenes:

Looking back on this album was a blur. I just remember being stunned by how vivid it all was to me while I recorded it. This was the culmination of years of imagining these scenes hoping for an engaging way of writing them down. Making and hearing an original version of these ideas that I could listen to was a phenomenal expierience. 

Album 2: Upside Down Cake

2 Gemel Wakes

4 If You Want It

5 Spinning

6 Carrying Gemmel

7 In History

8 Spontaneously

Upside down cake was the second album I recorded from euphoria sequence. It was recorded in the second half of March thus allot of the tracks remind me of the the things the senses pick up around spring time. I had a lot of fun with the voice of Eless in particular. After recording 9 albums using a pitchshifter and different experimental voice techniques to master the voice of child Elese, recording the voices of the teens from euphoria sequence was instinctive.

The first track in particular was tons of fun. It was a scene I had imagined since 2007 (it being spring 2012). 

I also enjoyed the track featuring the growth of the massive antagonist character Obsidian. It was an intense recording expierience. Other than that I was thrilled with the results of the song "spinning" where antagonist characters Crimson and dezzaray had an epic clash with she'll another antagonist. I rapp screamed my heart out on that track. 

Please rate comment below. I'd live your feedback on this diy sketch draft album. I will upload it in the future especially by request.

Joy manifest Behind the scenes: album 1: Eclair (euphoria sequence) 

When I first recorded euphoria sequence, I was exhausted from finishing the recording of the nine album apathy sequence before it. I loved euphoria sequence however and knew that I wanted to record the albums. This album had its fair share of challenges, but it was a thrill getting to act out the characters I made in an album for the first time. One particular joy was hearing the voice of Eless the first time. The determination heart and desire to to his best was all heard in that first take in "you'll survive". I loved it. It was like hearing someone you always wanted to meet an his voice being better than you imagined. The other character voices were also fun and challenging to record. Overall it was a fun, challenging, and involved effort that required slot of heart dedication and passion. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

E1000 Book 1 Quest Euphoria

Album 1: Eclair
Album 2: Upside Down Cake
Album 3: Potato Chips

When I first planned quest euphoria and even the other 2 books as it was revealed that there would be other characters both me and my brothers came up with in the story, I recall being thrilled to make certain villains be main villains of the installment. Right off the bat nemesis seemed like a good fit for book 1. Nemesis is a sobering villain and it was a challenge for the good guys to escape but that's what made him such a good starting obstacle. To have such innocent joyful young characters trying to durvive and having to face fear inorder to clash with him, it made the story, part one in particular that much more interesting. 

Shard had a similar effect. I will go more into him next time I revise this.
