It was listenable and it was pleasant. You get a nice bright sound out of your guitar. Your voice is nice, it sounds very Nick Drake-esque. I have a friend that has a great voice but he always sounds like the person who's song he is singing. Is this what "rezzej's" voice sounds like? Do you actually sound Nick Drake-esque? I think part of learning to sing is finding your voice, this is easier said than done.

But was it pleasant? Yes, very.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I live really close to where Nick Drake went to university and relatively close to where he unfortunately died, so that might go somewhat to explaining the Drake-esque quality. However, I did consciously copy some of mannerisms in this track because I really liked how he let the vocals drift over the guitar.

However, with that boost in confidence I'll record something of my own in the near future and I guess we'll see how that goes. I'm just finalising some lyrics for a piece now. Cheers again.

I'm looking forward to hearing your own work/voice. If you post it to Hubski, please feel free to shout-out to me so I don't miss it. Also, I have used the #originalmusic tag for some of my work. It would be cool to have other people use it.
