I'm OrrsLaw, Illustrator, Musician, Singer-Songwriter, Programmer(kinda)

in #introduceyourself8 years ago (edited)

My name is Orrs Law

I'm a musician from South Philadelphia, PA and I enjoy writing sad songs, and drawing cartoons/comics. Music was not my first love, illustration was, but the creative intent of both was always catharsis. I found steemit while research cryptocurrency on a whim and I quickly became a firm believer in it's model. This is revolutionary stuff and it seems to fly so far under the radar. Other than sound production/engineering and illustration. I try my best to be a good writer as well. I've been very slowly learning the ropes of creative writing to assist with writing fictional stories for my fictional fantasy universe, Lanh. I'm reckonin' that most of my posts will be related to worldbuilding.

Other than my hobbies, which take up a considerable portion of my time. I enjoy watching anime and cartoons( they're actually my primary consumed media ) and programming. Looking for an old Unix book is actually what started me down this Cryptocurrency hole and landed me here. I think thats pretty much it...nice to meet you all. :D

"Let Go" - Original Song from my upcoming EP "Pink"

Pink is a 6 song EP I'm releasing late June/early July.
This song is about the expectations we place on those closest to us and how that affects our feelings toward out significant others. Its a reflection on how the relationship itself fuels a desire to be alone. Recorded in my backyard with my roommates cellphone ^^;

Lyrics:
Let go, I will if you do
Come out tonight, the sun won't miss you
You know I know you, you're usually not with it
You know I know you, you want to live without limit

*So make a list of your flaws, your indulgence in mischief *
I'm taking pause to reflect that I won't miss you
We're taking hits at the bar I'm not far from the venue
And missing shade from you eh? We'll smoke a joint on the way
See I told you its simple.

We were just getting high, wonder why that flight missed us
Can't you tell that I'm barely getting by, so don't say its no issue
Don't say its no issue how you've got me on the tips of your fingers
Don't tell me I'm tripping when your perfume tends to linger.

My favorite thing to paint/draw are portraits and its been that way seen I was in grade school ( primary for folks across the pond ;) ) My mediums are photoshop and clipstudio paint, not to mention my handydandy sketchbook.

Hey man! Great to see you here. You and I are very similar as I lived my entire life in PA and just now moved to South Carolina. We are both geek musicians. Its wonderful to see like minds here. Except I cant draw or sing, those are some great sketches man! Maybe one day I will start singing on recordings. I sing all the time by myself. Up voted and followed, I will be looking for the release of your EP! Never quit <3

Maybe we could collab some time. I absolutely love that voice. I am very well versed in vocal production techniques. If you record your singing and send me it, anything really, I will surely use it and credit you! Good writing too.

:) thank you for your kind words @wallymusic. Lets definitely work together on some stuff.

Awesome! You can find me on skype at pancakebuddy or you can message me on soundcloud found in my profile. I think we could make something awesome, I really feel your voice and lyrics. I also use Discord - haidood#0160 is my username.

Very creative work! Wow - good to have you here!
Enjoy steemit :)

No I've never been to a weekend fest before, but damn does it look cool. I might go this year, it would be a super rad birthday present, haha. Thanks for listening and reading!

Hello and welcome to Steemit! Sounded pretty good for a cell phone recording ;-) Youhave some studio recordings you'll be posting on here as well? I'd look forward to that.

Yes. A lot more work has to be done and I have a lot more to learn but when my new album is done it'll be posted on Steemit first. I reckon i'll post past albums as well, so long as I can present them in an interesting way.

I hope you do! Will keep an eye out for your posts

You are a multi talented man. Love the song and artwork! Chris :)
