Happy New Year
Hey folks! Happy New Year! May 2021 bring you uncountable blessings!
I am swallowing my pride; and I'm going to reach out to my "audience" (You amazing individuals!). I have made a patreon account (https://www.patreon.com/fawx). I'm not one to ever ask for financial assistance, however, I'm in a situation where making sure my family has a roof over their heads, and food on the table is my only concern, and replacing/upgrading equipment is secondary at best.
I would like to get a new microphone, as the one I'm currently using, has terrible quality; To the point in which, I cannot use it without post-processing FX, to increase gain. Which I personally dislike, as I aim for my music to convey the emotions of each song without distortion. Other things on my wish-list, is a Bass Guitar, and a new electric guitar, as my high-end Ibanez was stolen a couple years ago, so I'm currently using a cheap Epiphone. (If anyone has a decent mic they're willing to part with, let me know!)
Unless my personal business takes off this spring, I'm currently stuck at a job that pays about 60% of my monthly expenses (yes, a 40% deficit), I tried opening an online merch shop with spreadshirt, however apparently no one likes the Fawx logo as much as I do :P
Regardless; those of you that subscribe to me here, have been a huge inspiration for me to focus on my true passion in life: music. If you're able to subscribe on Patreon, that would be awesome, if you're not, that's cool too! Just know that I totally understand. 2020 Screwed over a ton of people (myself included), and by the looks 2021 isn't shaping up to be much better, I will keep being positive, and pray that this year is amazing anyway.
I'm currently trying to record a new song; 'Stranger in the Mirror', however, I want to have clean vocals, but that will have to wait until I can afford a decent microphone as my current mic is a $20 one from a discount store, that was purchased in the early 2000's.
Feel free to DM, email or hit me up on Twitter. Thank you all, for your support and encouragement, it means more to me than I can possibly explain. I hope that Stranger i.t. Mirror, will resonate with you as much as it does with me.
