Yeah, recorded it straight off the keyboard using a headphone mic. So obviously the audio is bad and has a lot of ambient noise. But I want to bounce it off you and hear from you on what you think about the piece. It is pretty catchy and all but can do with some layering. I want some help in recording it too so if you have any expertise (no I am not talking of doing it in a studio, just my comp and keyboard) let me know. Also, if any of you is an exponent of Carnatic vocals, let me know, I need to add some vocals too. Ok, hope you like it.
