Yes!

I just finished writing my new song that I´ve been working on for some weeks;=) This time I am doing the lyrics in Swedish and it was a bit hard but also challenging to do that and now I´ve just sent it to my friend Fredrik Bergh to see how it will sound after the music is added. Since I don't play instruments so well, I always need help with recording that and Fredrik is fast and really good at what he´s doing;=)

The way we work is that I sing the song and record it directly in to Garage Band and set the tempo I want it to have. Then I write down the lyrics and also add little comments to Fredrik how I have thought the song should be "built". Then I send the song to iTunes and email lyrics and the song file to Fredrik and voila! - his magic can start working;=)

I love the technology of today, making it so easy to create music, even when we live far apart in the country!

Enjoy your day!

  2. Hi Anette :)
    You have every day a great news for us. This make me so happy.
    It seems a bit hard the way you're working. I don't understand so much of how these things are doing. I never recorded anything, because I don't play instruments and with singing I'am really bad. My parents and my sister are singing in choirs, but I feel that I can't do it. I am more sporty, since I play volleyball already 13 years and I must say that I love this sport :)
    Enjoy your day too!
    Kisses

  3. I've never seen the Garage Band app in use, but I have noticed it on the computers at school. So it helps you record and set tempos and all that sort of stuff?

    But can't wait to hear your new song ;)

    I'm also hoping to try and write my own stuff soon, I have some bits and pieces for guitar and bass, and an idea for something I want to do with one of my best friends, we want to try and write some really heavy metal songs using some bits of classical as part of it ;)

    Maybe sometime we can actually show the results of it.

    Have a great day! xo

  11. Yes!!! I´m very happy with you ♥ Good luck with them :-)I´m looking forward to new songs :-)

  12. Wonderful!!! :))

    I've been wondering since you joined Nightwish if they ever will do a song in Swedish (I thought maybe you could write the lyrics then), but now I'm glad you're going to make a song in Swedish. :)

    I also became a little bit curious about this Garage Band. I can't sing and I'm not good at playing anything, but I used to make some backgrounds using simple keyboard to some Finnish songs when I was teaching at primary school... I used a program called Cakewalk, I don't know if you know it...? But it was many years ago and my computer didn't work very well with that program, so I really didn't get so much into it. Anyway, it was nice to try. :D And pupils were happy!

    Good luck and hope we can hear the result soon. ;))

    Can't tell how happy i'm for this, for you, for your new project :)hope everything goes well and you kick ass =) and you're right, tecnology is amazing.. my gradma says all the time that is useless and in ' her ' time people didn't need it but let's face it what we would do without it? haha well, a little question.. all of your lyrics now are going to be in swedish or you gonna write down something in english? bet your voice gets even better in your own language =D

    Well Anette, I was so happy yesterday for you that I went to bed early with so many happy thoughts in my mind that this morning my phone rings and baaaam it's a guy asking me if i can go do a job interview, i'm so happy and nervous because i really want this job, if everything goes well i have to chance next year to start studing again and do many things i wanted ... fingers crossed for me and you :)

  20. Hi Nettie :)
    It's really awesome news :D
    I'm happy to know you're working on your album :)
    Swedish song? Can't wait! I won't understand a word but hey, it doesn't matter :D
    Yeah, the technology, what a gift, when I record my songs just for friends who want to hear me, they can hear everything in few minutes instead waiting for it for many days :D
    Hope some sneak peeks, demos or anything will be able here before the album comes out, because I don't think we can wait too long haha :D
    Anyway, hope you'll have a really nice Friday :)

  23. Hey Nettie..
    It's great to know that you've finished a new song, can't wait to hear =).
    I love the new technologies too, is so easy to write melodies and share them, I just can't live without Itunes anymore haha.
    I'm not a singer but I love to sing and write lyrics and some songs in the acoustic guitar, it makes me feel happy and still, so I think I can tell I know how it feels for you =).


    Hope you have a great day.

    Love, Carol

  24. Hello Anette!

    Lyrics in swedish! that sounds very interesting, I wanna hear it. Really I'm very happy for you, you deserve all the success =)

    And yes technology is amazing, but even it can't help me hahaha, I mean sometimes a friend says me : "we will record a song girl!" but I'm not a good singer xD

    Have a nice nice day! :D

  27. So great news!! That's really nice, Anette!! =D

    The technology make the things so easier today, isn't it?
    I'm waiting anxiously for your new musics -- and I know I'm not alone!
    For now, I can't stop hearing "Invincible" and "floating". This two musics are wonderful in a way I can't explain, specially "invincible". It's so emotional, so beautifull, so calm, so serene.. It's really touching -- it touches the heart, the soul.
    So, I'm really anxious for the new songs, which I know will be that wonderful as well!

    Thanks for this, Anette. Thanks for the happiness you are capable to bring to the world through your music!
