imogen heap :vBlog#35

Hello... a right old rambling of me trying to get across various things and actually looking back on it not playing you very much music er... anyway...I mostly re-visited Tidal and I absolutely love it now. Swoon sneak peak.. and whizzy BBD thing... I did a lot more than that.. but yeah. Got the beginnings of a new track down. It's gonna be all a cappella (apart from a few birds and possible fire cracklings). Listen to Mic Check for reference on type of vocal sounds... this is super rough, thrown down in a couple of hours. Now lyrics to write... couldn't sleep last night and so sat up laptop on duvet cover and typed some bits. Something about being in the moment. What it takes to get there. What sets it up. Pain, water, a kiss, longing... threading something together and hopefully get that down so I can play you more before long.

Loving twitter...

If you're hungry for more updates from me then sign up for that. it's a micro version of this. Day to day sometimes hour to hour. Want some others to follow? I like these guy's music. Miloshmusic and DavidSugar (just started .. please encourage!) Also Calvin Harris and Stephen Fry super active and fun.

Twitter related : Going to release those vocal files for whoever wants to put music to it too by 12th Feb as something for Twestival. It was a song Idea I came up with for an animation that never happened... music was going to be done by someone else... but now that person is you! The song that never was... but will once some of you have a go of it.

Mostly feeling good about stuffl... you know how it goes though...after the big highs come the big old lows. life would be pretty dull without these waves though eh?

Lots of love fluv to you all and thanks again for following.

"I'm not gonna play you any of Ashwin cause I want to keep it as a surprise (in the same breath) Well, I might play a little bit. I'll play a little bit, ok I'll play a little bit, Ok I'll play a little bit now"

LOLOLOLOL. So crazy.

I love all her songs equally :/ strange, really...

I've never had this happen with any other artists :/

Imogen's my favorite artist, hands down.

@graypaint I know! That man's voice added soooooo much to the song! :( I wish it had made the final cut!

8:26 She says "Oh, BALLS!!" ha ha ha I can NOT believe she said that. ha ha ha

Your album is flippin' fantastic, Immy! It was so funny when I heard "Caught red-handed in the biscuit tin." I was like...WHAT?? Ha ha But then a few days later, I remembered that the British call American cookies "biscuits."So I looked it up on Wikipedia to double-check and it said you call American "cookie jars" "biscuit tins/jars."Anyway, it's so fun looking at these blogs and seeing it all come together Congrats!
