(The title is a word Made up by Pinkie-Pie in the film My Little Pony: Equestria Girls. It is a portmanteau of Nervous and Excited)
After actually doing my homework for a change, I paid attention to my GCSE certificates (which I didn't even glance at when I received them) and I realised that I got a distinction for my music composition, so that either means that by luck of the draw my pieces consisted of what the examiners where looking for, or I can actually compose decent music, hopefully the latter. Either way I feel slightly better about myself.
I know I should take this as a compliment, but I'm not used to receiving compliments in fields I actually want compliments in. The next best thing that I have received is multiple people saying that they like me as a performer but they don't like the horror themed songs that I perform.
Earlier today I received a package containing a condenser microphone so I can start recording some songs for you, I'm not going to set a deadline because I doubt I'd keep it (I never do, it's becoming a very bad habit that I will have to break out of), but I would like to say that I have started working on recording a song, by that I mean that I have converted the drum beat into a .wav file and copied that into Music Creator 6, I would of like to record it myself but I don't have a drumkit, so the drums don't sound "right".
About the songs I have composed: the first song you will hear is called Please Don't Leave Me (Here This Way) it is a blues rock song about "me" getting dumped by my girlfriend (I haven't been so don't worry) This song was originally spammed out for my composition work in music, because I thought it needed to be handed in that day, but I later tweaked it a little and added a solo, and now I'm quite impressed with it. This song will be released under my name, George Booth, while the other two will be released under a different name which you will hear more about at a later date.
The other two songs are horror themed, and I chose a common fear to base them on: coulrophobia. I suppose the inspiration for these came from playing a lot of Killing Floor during the Summer Sideshow event. but anyway, for this I plan on putting on composing two more songs and uploading one song to YouTube and release the rest as an EP on iTunes, Please Don't Leave Me (Here This Way) will Not be included in this EP.
But before any of this can take place, I must first compose two more songs for my horror project and record all five of them, and I'll hopefully have something uploaded to YouTube by the end of September, no promises. So right now I'm quite nervous, It won't be long before I am able to share my music, which is quite exciting, but I'm just a bit nervous about it's reception.
