Hi 🎵 Hive Open Mic 82! All the musicians and music lovers!

It's me littlebeatle and it's my first time joining Open Mic
Stories of The Night is such an interesting and beautiful topic!
Things happen at night could be something mysterious, something evil, could be something scary, could be something beautiful, could be something romantic as well!

For me, “when the night has come, when the land is dark” is when lots of emotions come up to me. I’m more senstive at night and all my senses become very sharp at night too!

Nighttime and the dark, it’s easy to make us think of the death and the loneliness. However, if we have someone with us when we head into the dark, someone who holds our hand so tight, someone who has come with us on a long journey of life, someone we love, the dark night could become a peaceful space with full of warmth and love!

I remember singing this song from 4 years ago. And at that time I always felt sad and scared when I sang it.

Me playing and singing it today you can feel the warmth, the satisfaction and love that I want to spread to our community and all the international audiences.

Music is the world’s common language. So no matter what languages we are singing in, I believe that the energy, the authentic vibe is still there!

Let me know if you enjoy the song and I’ll also see you around, my dear musician friends and music lovers!
Thank you for being here today! ^^

Lyrics:

Love of mine
Someday you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light
Or tunnels, to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide that they are both satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school, as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son, fear is the heart of love," so I never went back
And if Heaven and Hell decide that they are both satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
But it's nothing to cry about
'Cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms
And if Heaven and Hell decide that they are both satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark

Little Beatle ♫

There are songs that make you feel that you are traveling through a world without evil, where everything flows in the most consistent way possible. Even when everything goes wrong, when death looms, peace remains and the power of love perseveres.

You have a charming voice, full of peace and very appropriate for the piece you have chosen. I love it, thanks for showing us your talent.

Long time since I heard this band. Cool! I'm not sure but you might be able to get a better sound out of that guitar if you buy some fancy strings. I used to think the fancy strings were too expensive but they last a looooooong time, you can change once a year and still keep a decent sound.

Hi @selfhelp4trolls ! Yes it's s cool band and I don't hear them often from anyone. My strings are actually the fanciest ones here already. Very expensive, but I think it could be my recording equipment! You're so right that I can absolutely get better sound. I look forwards to improving it! Thank you for stopping by and giving a precious feedback! 😊

Just pretend like you already took that compliment haha
But hey, you mentioned the quality of the sound in my video, and I saw you talking about some sound system as well. I'm looking to improve the sound quality of my videos by getting some recording equipment. I'd like to start with something simple and I still want it a live performance. Would you be interested in enlightening me a bit?
Thank you! 🤗

More compliments please! lol I'm not really sure. I got a Shure MV88 mic and it's ok, but I haven't tried it that much with music plus my ear isn't always that great. I do think you might benefit from having some soft stuff in the room to absorb sounds. I am not a sound guy but I lived with a sound guy for a few years lol

OH if you want to record audio only there is a set you can find. It's the focusright audio interface to connect PLUS a recording mic, AND ableton live software which is all great. It's all you need to record professional sounding music. I'm not sure how to use it with other software but I think it can be done. I'll record my album with this. It's about $200-250 USD if I remember correctly. Usually Ableton alone costs that much.

Yay! Thanks a lot! I heard a lot about Shure MV88! I should totally look into this!
I do a lot of live stuff so I don't have much experience with recording (I'm super picky and harsh on myself about the quality of the sound though). So here I go, I'm a crazy on-going learner haha - and appreciate your experience here.

And well - more compliments - you'd get a big head and it will get stuck on the ceiling - no rescue I could offer by then lol
Let me spread them little by little at a time 😆
