The Day Woke To Me Driving To You

[Acad08]

The Day Woke To Me Driving To You (abbrv. The Day Woke) is a one-person electro-acoustic project from Edmond, OK. Beginning with only [/URL]an acoustic guitar, a MIDI keyboard, and a computer, TDW has worked to create electronic downtempo music to open the eyes of the world to love.

Check this band out. We are about to enter the studio!

You have excellent compositional skills. Summer Rain is the kind of song that makes me wind down and relax and introspect.

Good tunes man, as "nssmusic" said, great compositional skills and really nice production. I'd personally love to see some vocals in there along the Sigur Ros/Moving Mountains lines, but the songs are cool as they are. You should check out a song called "Futuro" by Mae off their album Destination B-sides, which is about the closest thing I've heard to your tunes. Admittedly, it doesn't really sound all that much like the rest of their music, but still worth checking out.

I actually recorded some solo piano compositions myself a while ago, which I put up at http://www.youtube.com/user/iain173. I did them all pretty quickly, but feel free to have a listen. I'd love to contribute some MIDI samples to the cause!!

Incidentally, if you fancy checking out a few songs from my band's debut album, Burn This, you can do so at www.myspace.com/ubermanoeuvre. It would be great to get some feedback.

Thank you guys for listening, and thank you for the compliments! :)

I'm actually a huge fan of Mae and love the song Futuro.

I've gone over the idea of adding vocals, or even just spoken-word parts to the songs, but can't decide...what do you think?



Uber - am looking forward to checking out your Youtube/Myspace when I get to my home computer. Thanks!

I went ahead and opened your Youtube page here (usually doesn't work on this computer) and LOVED what I heard. 'Out Of The Dark' is something I would love to have at least part of in a future composition, if not the entire piece. Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
TDW

Sure thing. Do you want to drop me a message? I can send you the MIDI file for it if you like. I've got loads of compositions here and there.

[Acad08]

Will do.
