he listened entirely to my ideas and let me have a good direction of the track itself (I told him what I wanted it to sound like, and we worked together on something cool). Plus, he really needed someone quick for the anthem. He was also really patient, professional, and nice to me.
Did people in the past not listen to your ideas or did they not treat you the right way then?
I'm wondering, because it seems like you are kinda putting the focus on that part.
Without bringing up the past, because I've already moved on from the issues at hand, but in recent years I started immersing myself in to sound engineering. I've even engineered/produced some of my own stuff, sounds, written many tracks, and so on. I'm planning to use some of these concepts to turn in to my own stuff. I have loads of my own ideas, but I'm not very good working on my own (I prefer the feeling of synergy you get when you have a good bond with someone). I'm in sound engineering school now to help me develop my skills and to better my communication skills when working with others, and also to improve my set-up/technical knowledge so I can deliver my best possible work to people.
You have to understand I've been a hobby-vocalist for nearly 15 years now. And in music, you can only do one type of thing so much before you feel the urge to really do something new... some producers/engineers are very open and receptive to new ideas. As a result, I decided it to be a pre-requirement.
There's certain things I like and don't like... for e.g., I really love the older sounds of Dione (Deluge, etc). I love gregorian style chanting, and sub-bass frequencies that you feel instead of hear. I love screeches, hoovers, and more dissonant/atonal things. I like more simple (or beautiful) types of melodies (ie: The Outside Agency - The Alchemists, or
Hybrid - Unfinished Symphony), and idiosyncratic voices; I'm less concerned with music for the dancefloor, or making it "easy to mix" for DJs, and more concerned with thinking of the person who is just an "average listener". I like clean, well produced things and people who know how to do it.
Anyway, not to claim credit for the track with Re-Style... it's his time to shine, I just felt happy to help.

He did a really good job, and I think the anthem sounds awesome.
You guys can feel free to interview/Q&A me or something. I hate derailing threads so much, and it seems everyone has a lot of questions for me, even long after I've done anything.
