The Song That Never Was (MightyJordan's Version)

My version of "The Song That Never Was" by Imogen Heap.


Here's the history behind this, courtesty of Twestival (http://www.twestival.fm/?page_id=195):

"A short time ago, Imogen Heap took a few days out from making her new album to write a track that was supposed to feature at the end of TV programme. She wrote the song and recorded all the vocals, leaving the music for the composer who was writing the rest of the score so she could get on with her much anticipated new album. For one reason or another the song wasnt used and so the track never got completed. But their loss is Twestivals gain as shes excitedly donated the aforementioned vocals for The Song That Never Was experiment.

Imogen wants you to download the parts and add your own musical interpretation. You can then upload your mix to her SoundCloud Dropbox (http://soundcloud.com/imogen-heap/dropbox) and put the best efforts up for everyone to listen to and enjoy."


I created this version using Sony ACID Xpress 7.0, which is free to download here: http://www.acidplanet.com/downloads/xpress/

Hm... I find this tune kinda... diffuse... I cant extract a clear mood out of it. Thus, it doesnt really connect to the lyrics. And that, finally, leads to picture not fitting into its frame. Sorry ;-/

[MightyJordan]

Thanks for the feedback. I must agree that it doesn't really fit. I only had a small handful of loops and samples, so it wasn't really an easy task. I might try doing another version with a different piece of software.

Very laid back, cognitive, pensive. I like how you changed up the drum beats rather than just using the same thump-thump-thump for three minutes. :)
