HELP! looking for a singer for one song...

anyone interested in singing a great lead vocal for me on a pop/dance track? its somewhere between house music/EDM and mid-period Depeche Mode so far... based on the song I was writing for an earlier EB collab that never materialized.

I'm looking for a crooning male vocalist with the ability to 'growl' as needed but will consider a female singer if shes got soul... any help? If you sing my song well, maybe one day I will do a favor for YOU!

You should put up a bit of the song so they can sing if it's in their range

I can change the key on demand to suit whoever, but good point... I really like it in B minor to D minor

the mix so far:

original demo:

as you can hear there have been many refinements including changes to the 'chorus' and 2nd verse, I ditched the bridge completely and used some harmonic ideas from the chorus to create musical breaks, but this has the basic vocal concept... I would be grateful for lyrical help and melodic tweaks to pull it all together...

needs a KILLER vocal, please respond if you are willing to collaborate with me!

Im diggin the electro stuff man! Nice Work.

thanks Ebow... I have since improved a few spots in the arrangement/structure, added an electric guitar lick and synth double, finished the music mix and done a scratch vocal I have been carefully comping and mixing in case no one with a better voice volunteers to sing for me.... but god does my vocal suck, so I hope posting it will encourage someone to do a better version for me and maybe even fix my mediocre lyrics

here's more or less what I think the vocal should sound like, only with a real singer...

I did my best trying to give a tolerable vocal performance and really put a good couple evening's work into doing some cool stuff with the vocal in the mix.... much to my son's consternation. Hes totally sick of this song even though he was dancing to it the first 100 or so playbacks....

Oh wow, I remember listening to that demo many months back... Loved it.

thanks for listening, Jeff

it just kinda turned itself into synth pop the last month, I had a bunch of basic stuff programmed into MIDI back in January/February so I could jimmy with the structure and improve on keys and guitar over it and it just took off since I had a lot of synths fired up already to do remixes.... so a few weeks ago I opened the MIDI files and started assigning hardware and software to them and creating samples in my shed, LOL (for instance it opens with a rhythm loop created by slowing down a broken bike chain as it fails to rotate properly... I was fixing my bike and thought it was pretty groovin' broken)

god my vocal sucks.... HELP ME EB!

Well now this is stuck in my head! If it bounces around in there too long it is going to pop out at some stage... hopefully for you not near a microphone. But just in case... shoot me the lyrics ;)

stuck in your head? what a nice compliment...

if you wanna take a stab at it, be my guest... I can send you the backing track, vocal demo, lyrics (feel free to change them, just try to respect the notes because I wrote it melody out) and a chord chart

all of these are supposed to have vocals....

http://equipboard.com/forums/general/topics/anyone-want-to-sing-a-few-songs-for-me-pretty-please I am kicking stuff back and forth with 2 guys right now, but I'm basically auditioning by collecting takes from people song by song and maybe I'll end up mixing and matching in places to get an optimal synthpop opus

Of course respect! This is as much your child as your son it shares a room with. Will send you a FB PM

I don't do facebook anymore... my music email is jimmarchi1 @ gmail . com (no spaces)

Ironically I'm kinda turned off on this song right now because I got carried away with the arrangement trying to use all my toys in one pop song. But whenever I mute a part or change a sequence I miss it. I know its cluttered compared to my other synthpop songs but I have lost all objectivity... maybe a good vocal from you will get my head out of my ass on this one!
