This is my second attempt at Lo-Fi. This song is called “Your Smell”, it was recorded using a combination of techniques. First of all I recorded it on a Digital Voice Recorder, as with my previous song. Then I recorded directly onto the PC, using my Sony headphones as if it were a stereo mic. While recording it in Cool Edit Pro, I was also moving things around the room, banging on things and closing and opening the door to add extra stuffing to the song.
The interesting part came when the battery on the recording device ran out near the end, so it gave an interesting twist to the end of the song. Afterwards I increased the speed by 12 octaves using the music editing program, and then reduced it 12 octaves to distort the sound quality. Furthermore, I added a few filters to add a bit of vibrato to the guitar.
Then I recorded the rest of the tracks, like the drums, the vocals and the clapping.
