So now I have completed the song, recorded in the studio and submitted for final assessment. Overall I am very pleased with my work on this project, I feel I grasped the concept of the brief well and achieved the vast majority of my goals. One area of disappointment was the addition of extra percussion. After taking on this suggestion from classmates during group discussion I was seeking a percussionist who would be willing to perform on my track. I found one at the last moment and we recorded a version with a cajon however it didn't quite turn out the way I wanted, most likely down to the short timescale with which to work.
I still think the song delivers what I set out to do from the start and the simplicity of the recording (Guitar and Vocals) adds to the natural vibe that I intended to create. You can listen to "The Mountain" by clicking the tab below.
Many thanks to Ludovic Barrier for recording and mixing this track.
