Writing process for JCC's first album? Lyrics, song structures, chords, etc?
I've been googling around but can't really find any good info.
What part did JC have in the structuring of the songs / writing of the lyrics and chord progressions? Have been listening to it recently and really enjoy it, and was under the impression it was just him jamming on the drums along with some friends and thus organically working out some songs (thus very jazz-like). |

I find it to be a mediocre question.

All the reviews I've been seeing allude to him writing all the lyrics, and some even to him writing the songs... though I wonder if that means he actually sat down and worked out melodies / chord progressions or what.
I'm just so curious about this... would've been cool to get a documentary on how he works his magic sans-pumpkins. |

M-AUDIO - Jimmy Chamberlin ? The Making of ProSessions 24
Heavily immersed in the studio scene for the last decade, Chamberlin has spent countless hours in the studio trying to coordinate the creative energy of four different individuals. “I've recently gotten into Ableton Live and computer-based technology,” Chamberlin enthuses. “These types of resources are invaluable—and that's how I assemble songs now. It’s a lot timelier for me to sit home and do an arrangement with Ableton Live than it is for me to amass four guys from different parts of Los Angeles, stick them in a sweaty room and have to sit there. It's so much easier to go, ‘Here's the new arrangement. Learn it, come back, play it.’ It’s so much more time-effective and everybody's on the same page when you get to rehearsal. On the last Pumpkins record, we demoed a lot of stuff, recorded to DAT or Pro Tools, and chopped and pieced the arrangements together. It was nice to be able to just chop it apart, without having to count on four people getting the arrangement right. As far as time goes, it’s a great tool.” |
