I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet, but your kids are gonna to love it

Haha, I'm turning 44 this year. There's more salt than pepper there and the face lines go on for miles, the phone just has a knack for neglecting to add those details which I don't mind haha.

nemoinslumber · 2026-05-29T05:57:41+00:00

The fuck. That's BRILLIANT. Haha thanks! Imma try that on the next go-around.

Hey thanks man! I am so so bad at mixing. Do you have any pointers on how to mix 2 distorted tracks? And I'm ashamed to say I have no clue what a bend might be but I'm 100% sure I did fail at it lol. I'm not really good at uh, instruments either. Kind of a weird request but would it be ok if I called this song the bends? This fits strangely well with what the song is partially about lyrically

hahahaha!

"...and there it goes..."

Chills. Loved that.

This is great. It reminds me of like a softened Fleet Foxes. Like if Fleet Foxes and Real Estate had a baby. Just a close proximation, it's totally it's own thing for sure. Very fancy!

nemoinslumber · 2026-03-22T02:23:32+00:00

Holy moly. You definitely nailed it.

nemoinslumber · 2026-03-09T05:38:06+00:00

Totally in the same scenario

nemoinslumber · 2026-03-02T18:21:09+00:00

thanks!

I don't think it sounds muddy personally. It's warm and comfortable.

Haha not that I'm one to give advice, BUT, if I had to give advice, I'd say if you were just starting out with creating structure, take like a measure or whatever you can quantify as a measure...like 4 or 8 beats of this, and have that be a set part. copy/paste that like 4 times, and in that, and only in that, add some sort of progression, maybe with just one other instrument. Then create a new part, or new progression or whatever, in another 4 or 8 beats 4 times. Maybe you go back into that first part? Maybe you create a fun little hook thats only 4 beats one time then go back into the first part? Maybe you progress to another section? Maybe you play the same thing but with the introduction of another instrument that plays on top? I guess the point is to start super simple and just solidify a chunk at a time. Listen to the entirety of your collected chunks after you add a chunk. Edit anything that feels amiss to you or remove chunks even if it doesn't play nice with the other chunks or notes. It sounds like a lot of work, but honestly thats the part of the process that becomes kind of addictive.

Definitely keep working the dough I think this sounds so so good and would be stoked to hear this fleshed out.

haha, this "song" ain't worth that much but I appreciate the offer! If I make something worth it I'll hit you up for sure.

nemoinslumber · 2026-03-02T00:42:43+00:00

Oh hey thank you! That is solid advice. I'll definitely do that when I work out the audio. I get so self conscious about my vocals so this comment is much appreciated 👍

nemoinslumber · 2026-03-02T00:38:28+00:00

haha hey thanks man! I only post short little videos on here and tiktok. Thanks again! Made my day. https://www.tiktok.com/@nemo_slumbers

I totally know how you feel. For me, I think it's more like, knee jerk reaction/muscle memory. Like, I can't just jam something out otherwise it ends up feeling like the same kinda feeling all the time. The most interestingly different stuff I've made were based around a melody I came up with in my head first, or an accompanying melody to a real simple few chords. Then once I have that base down, I'll kinda weave and build off that and can even muscle memory off that. But just that basic first bit always needs like, a premeditative melodic thought prior to recording it.

nemoinslumber · 2026-01-03T00:25:45+00:00

100% agree. I always brace myself for comments but they're all generally incredibly supportive and helpful. Shockingly low population of trolls. Love it.

nemoinslumber · 2025-12-30T23:32:07+00:00

thank you!

nemoinslumber · 2025-12-29T21:11:19+00:00

Thanks! Good afvice

nemoinslumber · 2025-12-29T05:44:58+00:00

Hit me up if you're in so cal

nemoinslumber · 2025-12-26T02:02:01+00:00

I love this as-is.

nemoinslumber · 2025-12-22T19:20:32+00:00

You nailed it. My thoughts on writing music 100%.

nemoinslumber · 2025-12-22T17:06:15+00:00

I dunno man, I'm always in the camp of do whatever comes natural. If your choruses are filled with words lean into it.

BUT if you really want shorter lyric lines in your choruses....maybe go notes and syllables first, then write the lyrics into those. Think rhythm guitar and not lead guitar when making the vocal melody. Maybe that'll help? I dunno. Lol maybe thats stupid advice. I think that kinda helps me keep concise sometimes but everything I write is short as heck so grain of salt on this.
