yep, please let us know when you post on bandcamp on the FAWM facebook page!
[avatar]
I am with @nadine Let me know when you release this. I’d love to get it on BandCamp or CD too.
[avatar]
@nadine
Please let me know when you and @caitlin release the album. I will get a copy. CD or Bandcamp, cause I don't stream. Well done, folks!
[avatar]
Cheers for the comment on "Beasts of Apocalypse"! @bxphane indeed composed a very brutal and bestial track!
[avatar]
@nadine
Thanks for your kind words on my guitar playing. I just do whatever comes into my mind, let's see which genre I will stick to. I haven't thought about a kids TV show but yeah, I know what you mean. This jolly atmosphere is pretty uncommon for me lol
[avatar]
Thanks for your message! I think I saw your name come around sometimes but apparently (and sadly enough for me) never before checked out your songs!
[avatar]
Love the tunes and Ampersandman is a great name.

@mk2021
Thanks for listening to my track.
[avatar]
Thank you for your title proposal.
[avatar]
Thanks for the listen and comments on All Like That - I've added the lyrics. Appreciate the feedback.
[avatar]
Thank you so much! Yes, playing the bass makes you feel powerful and feel more connected to the song somehow. The bass starts and everything starts to flow.
I’ll be thinking about the finale when I’m revisiting the song! I also feel like „there could be more“ :)

@b3nut
Thanks for the listen and comment on "Instrument Of Control!" I'm not much of a lead player but sometimes things align... ;) Lemme know if you want B-3 on anything...
[avatar]
Thank you! :)
[avatar]
No, that chord was intentional! There are a few muted notes that should ring but the chords are as they should be 😊
[avatar]
Hey, danke für Deinen Kommentar zu den Nazimäusen. Auch schön, Dich wieder zu sehen oder vielmehr zu hören.
[avatar]
Man! Thank you for the love on "10/10" with Leah and the shoutout as well! Much appreciated. Looks like I got a lot of listening to catch up on here as well!
[avatar]
Thank you!! Glad it worked the 2nd time. Funny thing was that they want it slower 😂😂😂 oh well!! We’ll figure it out eventually.
[avatar]
Sorry for the delay on this response. I Just saw your comment about the vocals in your mixes. You are welcome to reach out to me. I'm gina@blueworldav.com. If you want, we could jump on a zoom and talk about your gear. It's all SO subjective. And it would be good to understand what you're using to record your vocals. If I can help in anyway, please reach out. Happy FAWMing and rock on!!
[avatar]
Thanks for letting us know by the way.
[avatar]
Oh no! Private Soundcloud links are always so glitchy. What about this one? https://on.soundcloud.com/zBvrq
[avatar]
Yeah, I definitely understand about being lucky to find @caitlin! And I’m so excited by the music you two have come up with. I do hope you guys can get it out there into the world because it is damn good!
[avatar]
Danke für deinen lieben Kommentar zu Plastik und die ausführliche Rückmeldung! Das bestärkt mich total und freu mich! Und ja das mit der letzten Strophe kann ich verstehen. Am Ende mochte ich sie doch zu sehr um sie rauszulassen. Aber vielleicht ist es auch ein anderes Lied. Mal sehen, das Lied ist bestimmt noch ne Weile im Prozess. :) Danke dir!
Bin gespannt auch bei dir reinzuhören!
[avatar]
Thanks for the comment on Glimpse so excited you'll be adding some bass to the track!
[avatar]
Thanks for Rocket! I love it. If you see any other lyrics that inspire you... Like this one? https://write.fawm.org/songs/15407
[avatar]
@nadine
Thanks for your comment on "Glimpse". I'm happy you enjoyed! @chrismyth02 did such a great job on the lyrics and volume - unbelievable. Yes, sure you can join the collab!
[avatar]
Thank you so much for your comment and for the feedback! I'll have a play around with that second chorus.

@ryako
Hey, thanks for the shoutout in the Recommendation Thread! That's so nice of you!
[avatar]
Hey, I don't know if they were that popular anywhere. I was given a 2CD set by a friend about 20 years ago and there's some great stuff on there. Check out 'Adrift'.

@nadine
FAWM is a personal challenge. If you feel better with 5 great songs instead of 50 mediocre that's fine too! I write more songs than I wanted, cause I'm bored. I didn't decide which to turn into full productions cause I didn't feel the wow until now. Maybe I'm just a bit hard on myself...
[avatar]
It’s well deserved. This song is an absolute beast. It hits me with songwriter envy. Amazing
[avatar]
Thanks for the comment on Weine und Genuss! I'm now mortified at the thought of a German listening to my bad German...but glad it made you smile, haha.
[avatar]
Ah, I see now. That'll be great!
[avatar]
Hi. Yes, you can make them work to fit your music. Which ones are you thinking of using?
[avatar]
@b3nut
Thank you for listening and the kind comments on Recombobulate Me! Had fun banging that one out. ;)
[avatar]
@owl
Thank you for your kind comment on Little Fires! Hope your FAWM is going great.
[avatar]
@ryako
You are the only one who has picked up on that theme in "Eris and the Heiress". Well done, you!
[avatar]
Thanks! It's the change when the lead synth comes in about 3min mark - moves from a droning A thing to Bm out of nowhere, haha. Not sure why it works so well, but it does
[avatar]
@nadine
Thank you! Well, there's some MIDI copy and paste magic going on. I spent my lunch break writing and yelling lyrics. There's a hidden message in between the lines that helped me to go wild. And the harpsichord? To be honest, I don't like this instrument, but Facebook told me I should use it. So I did! I played the solo in half time and corrected a lot. My fingers aint that fast (lol).

Not sure how to share my email address with you privately so I’ll just pop it up on here publicly! I can be reached at caitlin.sigler@gmail.com. Looking forward to giving a shoegazy collab a try!

Vielen Dank für Deine lieben Worte. Ich wünsche Dir einen wundervollen Februar und freue mich schon sehr auf Deine neuen Lieder! :-)
[avatar]
Added my email to my profile page. Looking forward to hearing it!
[avatar]
Just listening to your song Sideways. Catchy tune, feels like a 90s alternative rock vibe (very much my era). Have a great FAWM

@reklov
...na, aber so was von! :-)

Hi Robert, thanks for stopping by to say hello. Hope you are doing well, and even more important, I hope we both find ourselves with many collabs before the end of FAWM.
Cheers,
John

Robert, hi!! I often still think about the podcast we did together last year!! Got any special plans or goals for this year's FAWM?
[avatar]

A spinning-Leslie Hallo from snowy Wisconsin! 😀

@nadine
Vielen Dank! Freut mich dass du wieder dabei bist und danke für deine Unterstützung 🤗
Ich hab mir vorgenommen weniger zu machen, bzw. Sogar einer Liste meiner minimum fawm experiences zusammengestellt, aber es eskaliert jetzt schon. Solange ich kein Album für ein 30 köpfiges Team schreibe ist alles OK. Ich will das Zeug ja auch fertig kriegen 🤷‍♀️
[avatar]
A loud and heavy hello to you here on FAWM 2023!! :)

@nadine
Willkommen zurück! Freu mich wieder auf laute Gitarren!
