I like your vocal work, very Lennon-esque. Also like the cool processed vocal effect on this tune, I guess it’s coming from Ozone. I get it though, recording and mixing vocs can be challenging! I can also relate to your struggles physically. I’m in my early 60’s, have some chronic arthritic and tendon type pain/mobility issues as well. I do very little live playing anymore, in a church group for the last couple years, before that virtually nothing for over 2 decades. I have concentrated on honing my studio skills and techniques, but I’m mainly a musician and not an engineer, so the technical side has been a struggle to excel at. I basically fiddle until it sounds good to me, even if it’s some unconventional workflow! I use MIDI extensively as well. I have enjoyed collaborating with some other musicians online over the last couple years.
