Producing in your dreams!

« **on:** June 10, 2014, 12:48:26 PM »

Ok - get this...

I have a song I'm working on at the moment. Pop. It's not finished yet.

Last night I had a dream where it was completed with all new production and brand new ideas/transitions from verse to chorus to bridge to breaks etc.

I now know what I'm going to do to finish the track. Completely.

I finished it in my dream and can still remember everything today.

Weird.

The woman even sang it slightly differently in the dream and it sounded better so I'm gonna use that too.

That is awesome

I just need to have one of those with someone telling me how to achieve what I hear in my head!!!!!

Perhaps an afternoon nap is the answer - you never know!

You should write a novel! I can see it as a Waterstones bestseller: I wrote it in my sleep.

Can't wait to hear it!

I mostly find old synths at garagesales when I dream. But sometimes I wake up knowing that I made wonderful music in my sleep. But sadly enough I don´t remember it...

Brilliant - any cheese involved? If so what type produces this magic effect?

I dreamed that Rufus Wainwright came to one of my gigs the other night. He was very kind but honest about my songwriting, and agreed that my songs were "only about a third as good" as his.

Slightly gutted tbh

I wrote a song inspired by RW.

I'm going to bin it now Tone.

Rock on Brother.

Nooooooooo don't bin it. Share it! Maybe he'll turn up in *your* dreams and tell you how it's a least a third better?

I'm not sure it's cheese ingestion that's fuelling this thread

Come to think of it, I never finished it.

I may just do a really bad job of it.

See what he thinks of that eh?!

The Sh*t.

Hahaha Alan & Caco

A cocky sh*t indeed. I was too star-struck to tell him to do one...
