Gotta Be Me by pensivemusic Artist’s website: myspace.com/pensivemusic Description of the track: “Gotta Be Me.” I wrote this song for a “Sizzle Reel” about a school who educates kids with autism, bi-polar disorder, etc. I needed it to be upbeat and familiar, so I went for a “universal” vibe and aimed for a Rolling Stones sound. The vocal’s a bit up front because I wanted the viewers of the video to be able to decipher the lyrics. I welcome feedback on all aspects of the music creation process from songwriting to mixing. I wrote performed, produced, and mixed it myself. I run ProTools 8 on an iMac. The guitars are miked, and the bass is DI). I programmed the drums using Steven Slate EX.
