Music with a style from the past
A little about the journey so far
I have been writing and recording at my home base studio for about 20 years. Early on I was just learning how to record, mix, and produce music with two friends, Jeff Jones, and Jim Pickens while recording cover songs for fun. In 2008 I started working with singer songwriter Ronnie Apodaca and that is were I started honing my skills at recording and mixing. We collaborated on several songs and recorded two CD’s of all original music. As a virtual unknown we were pleased that we sold many hundreds of copies.
A few years later Ronnie passed away and I started writing and recording my own songs and adding my vocals to a few that Ronnie and I co-wrote. Recently I revisited my music and worked on remixing as well as recording a few new ones. I write and record because I enjoy doing it as amateur and know the difference between professional artists and full studio production. But home based studios and the tools to record have improved over the years and many indie musicians like me have been able to record their music that can come close to full studio quality.
My songs vary from rock, pop rock, and melodic soft rock. The one common thread is that I am old school, and so are my songs. Some of my songs rock out with the help of some talented musicians and are more like the style of the 70’s and 80’s. There’s few mellow songs that are all about lyrics and melody. I am presenting my songs on this website so anyone who might like to hear or download them can do so for free. My only request is that if you find even one song you like, I would appreciate your feedback at my email address: robertovermanmusic.com
