Sumo for Producing Instrumentation
I sent 2 songs in, and he sent me back 2 Sumo productions (music without my voice or lead vocals). So my daughter who’s 19 immediately said “it sounds like AI”, which it does. She also said it sounds like a Disney production, and not CCM. She kept saying it doesn’t sound like Worship music. Overall, it didn’t follow my pattern for the songs. Here’s a list of things it changed: 1. It didn’t do an instrumental that I needed before a bridge. It just goes straight into it. That makes it harder to sing because you have to know the song so well, so you know what to do vocally. 2. It added extra measures to my instrumental, and made it way too long. 3. It played the verse melody of Pt. 1 of the verse, where I would sing Pt. 2 of the verse which is a different melody, but same chords, so it works, but sounds weird. 4. It added drums on V.2 but it’s really not a drum song, and that’s definitely not the right place to add drums. 5. It added an extra repeat on Pt. 2 of verse 2, that’s not there on verse 1, so it’s unbalanced. 6. It plays a lot of the melody which I will be singing over the music. I think it’s too much. 7. In some places you can’t understand the BGV. Sounds distorted. 8. I’ll stop here, but is it difficult to fix these issues (time consuming) because right now it’s just an experiment to see if I want to use this instead of live musicians. Preferably I’d just rather have the live musicians. It probably going to cost me more, but in the end, I will have a unique sound that the Sumo just all sounds the same. I see really it just copied my keys. I could just do my own keys, I think too. LMK WHAT YOU THINK PLEASE!!!
