Need a Pianist and a Lyricist for a project!

Postby iTwi » 16 Jan 2012 05:12

So, I'm working on a toastbeard entry, and this week's theme is The future of Equestria. My entry isn't neccisarily about the future of Equestria, but the future of a certain pony.

I want to make a ponified version of Adele's Someone Like you, told from the viewpoint of a pony (Who will be decided based on what lyrics work best) singing about (undecided pony) who left them, minutes before they going to propose.

I would like the help of a Pianist, and a Lyricist to help me out with this project. You will be fully credited, and I will owe you many, many handies. Thanks!

I can play keys.
If there aren't other pianist/keyboardists around I could help.

Well, if someone wants to, we could have a Lead and a harmony.

Lyrics, I can TRY. If you absolutely hate them, throw them away. Just give me the pony pair and I'll do my very best.

I've played piano for a number of years, though i'm not exactly sure why you would need a pianist. Do you not have a DAW?

Well, for one thing, I just started out doing this stuff not too long ago, so I don't know too much. And even then, I know veeeeery little about actually playing piano, much less tracking it. Plus, I think it would sound better with an actual pianist.

Whatever works, I guess. And like I said, if someone wants to do a harmony part, I'm all for it.

Registered just to reply to this post.

Are you looking for the same kind of melancholy lyrics as Adele presents, or something of a different feel? I'm working on something now, and hopefully it'll turn out nice.
