Okay Ka-Lynn, here's one I wrote for a friend's funeral. It's even more meaningful to me now since my brother passed away last July. Our musical journey started when we were kids and lasted a lifetime.

The answer is in your question... you USED to come here and...

so did everybody else. Facebook happened. People post songs but people reallhy only care about their own songs.

bottom line is theres not enough members

Pretty obvious isn't it , it's all AI songs . That basically hit all forums. You need to promote on YouTube as the artist , not rely on forums and AI songs, it's not rocket science walk in a studio. Hey man push record , Wow that was real hard . Hey mister producer you think this AI shite will take over ? probably. Rusty Throaty is pretty good. George or counch , Did $600.00 demos , But he knows unless your a Sony Staff writer , You don't have much of a chance , I turned one his lyrics into a Suno songs , If he's still kicking thats what he does. So you sit there with 600 useless songs on your hard drive. aint life a bitch

Yes, and AI generated music isn't drawing in the real songwriters any longer. Most legitimate songwriters will avoid AI websites like the plague.

Zero logic in this theory

Suno came out about two years ago if that, this site has been dead since 2015 roughly.

That's not the reason but think what you will

And REAL songwriters such as myself are experimenting with it, so is Couchgrouch

And even Ben, only he has a new theory every day

Time has shifted against these songwriting websites.

People are going elsewhere, such as misc places on FB.
The population that used them is aging out and dying off.
The illusion that these sites are a gateway to music row has long since faded.

This particular site has another layer of dysfunction causing people such as yourself to leave.
When I sign up for FB pages, the rules required to acknowledge are almost always,

no name calling,
no pointless arguing,
no personal attacks,
no religion,
no politics.

All guaranteed to sew discord.

All of that is allowed here and enabled under some warped view that freedom of speech includes idiotic speech.

As a result, all sorts of people, such as you, who were truly interested in a songwriting focus have said "to hell with it."

So the residue that remains, appears to me, to be the main attraction here now...and the big view tallies go to;

religious zealotry,
hating Donald Trump
and pointless badgering arguments about songwriting....by the clueless.

And be aware...no one will stop it from coming at you, but if you hand it back, you will likely be accused of being the problem...by people who actually are the problem.

As for me...the place is just a bad habit, that I havent completely stopped.
Actually, I did quit the place and was sought out and asked to return. I did and the dysfunction started all over again.

Having said that, there are some sincere people here who love to write songs and have something worth hearing.

And if you need to know anything about the irrefutable signs of the "end times" and when the rapture will occur.
Or the evils of homosexuality.
Or racism, from the point of view of a self proclaimed racist...then...

JAPOV aka Tony Williams from Decatur, Alabama can fill you in.

He collects disability which supports his addiction to hurling insults over the internet.
He is the main attraction at JPF.com

Thanks Kay-Lynn. This song is published, and a music supervisor has requested subs for it. Which I spent a day doing. The lyrics are here: https://johnlarenceschick.com/song/1

Yes, about 8 tracks. It's already published, so I can't share the tracks. It's on my non-downloadable website.

"That's a shame... That VOX could really use some work." - JAPOV


Not sure what you mean Japov? I think Erik did a beautiful performance on this. Had the perfect emotional input. Now if you're meaning mixing options such as reverb, effects, EQ, volume, panning, etc. That's a horse of a different color. I imagine if five mixing engineers did a take on this, you'd have five different results. I mixed the vocal as I like to hear it. I played it back using headphones, quality computer speakers and even a Kindle. It came through satisfactory to me on all the playbacks. But thank you. I went back to my Logic Project for this, and I still wouldn't change anything major.

Best, John smile

You should do a comparison with something you know is mastered well.

I went to my original mix on Logic Pro. I would EQ the vocal differently today. It needs more high end and less volume on the vocal. I'll do a remix with this idea and see what you think. Maybe an extra splash of premium reverb.

Thanks, John

JAPOV had me re-thinking original mix of Passing Through Us. New Mix: http://schicksville.com/Passing%20Throug%20Us%20-%20Remix.mp3

I raised the mid to high-end, added more reverb. panned to center and lowered the volume of the vocal.

Thanks, John

Personally I think that we should not have separate forum for ai, like this gal didn't know theres alot of songs in other forum

Just as much sings as anything else, and sound better too.

No doubt fferebt than a studio producing your demo

You don't know the difference between a demo and master recording for an artist , it's different. These session players are blocked out for 3 hours , They knock out 3 or 4 , They're super fast and efficient
Master recording like me , Well I don't know little more time on

The answer is in your question... you USED to come here and...

so did everybody else. Facebook happened. People post songs but people reallhy only care about their own songs.

bottom line is theres not enough members

Facebook ? what a nightmare , every add is on hair growth , You to can have a full set of hair for $9.99 a month
